Here's a funny bit from the site, "Websurdity", which pokes fun at conspiracy thinking. Many of you may have seen this before, because it;s been going around the net for a while.

I am NOT making fun of the tragedy and seriousness of 911, not at all.

I found this humor piece on another discussion board this weekend, it gave me a laugh and made me pause and think about the assumptions I may be accepting about this-or-that. This is for fun and maybe asking one's self, now, are there some leaps I am making about something I think may be true?

"We’ve all heard the “official conspiracy theory” of the Death Star attack. We all know about Luke Skywalker and his ragtag bunch of rebels, how they mounted a foolhardy attack on the most powerful, well-defended battle station ever built. And we’ve all seen the video over, and over, and over, of the one-in-a-million shot that resulted in a massive chain reaction that not just damaged, but completely obliterated that massive technological wonder.

Like many citizens of the Empire, I was fed this story when I was growing up. But as I watched the video, I began to realize that all was not as it seemed. And the more I questioned the official story, the deeper into the rabbit hole I went......"[i]
