Lol I really don't, please enlighten me! I do think it's silly how there are tons of different religions, and even denominations in 1 religion. All who think they are right and the others are wrong.

I got a good laugh out of this, so props hehe.
Although I found your interpretation quite funny, here are my issues with it. You are comparing world events occurring today in the present time, to a book written thousands of years ago, that has been passed down time and time again, misinterpreted time and time again. Religion scares people with the perspective of "life after death", living in an eternal hell, not the fear of dying itself. I don't find the theory "scary" at all.. the governments only have the power to which we give them. They are no more than the Wizard hiding behind the curtain in the Wizard of Oz. Right now that curtain is still up, but it is starting to tear and for good reason.
Anyways, let's continue shall we!
The 9/11 conspiracy theory should be taken literally because if you do not, you believe that the government was unable to defend it's own country against a small number of terrorists, that terrorists were able to fly giant airliners into the trade centers and the pentagon, that the United States of America were unable to find Osama but tiny news journalists were and even conducted interviews with him, and that taking away more of our liberties is the way to handle the situation, working towards rendering the constitution useless. Create a problem, wait for the reaction, and offer a solution which was the main goal in the first place. Great way to scare people into giving up more of their liberties if you ask me.
Anyways, I'm off to town to buy some equip for my grow box! Ciao for now brown cow!
