....logically impossible....
....so thoroughly debunked....
Here we see the problem of someone trying to pass off an OPINION (even if it's an informed one) as fact.
Maybe they just do not grasp the concept of complex science and competing theories? Do they understand that the physical systems being studied are SO complex, that PROVING a theory to be true, or untrue, cannot be done? Are they aware that the leading body investigating the science cannot even complete one of the studies? That their model failed with realistic input parameters? That they did not even model a crucial part of the event?
This is not to say these scientists are wrong, and *I* am not arrogant enough to claim that. I don't know. No one can KNOW in this case. I know enough science to know that a definite conclusion is not within reach in a system so complex. Probabilities are what we have. Sadly, non-scientists, or even scientists who can't accept where one of the competing theories would lead, seem to have no qualms turning probabilities into certainties and acting as if there is nothing to debate.
Science doesn't work that way, and having been part of the astronomical community modelling galaxies for over 4 years, I know that for highly complex systems where physical tests are not possible, proving one theory over another is exceedingly difficult. With these things, a concensus will develop over time, but it may not have been proven and may one day turn out to be wrong.
Using words like impossible may not necessarily be arrogance but it is certainly ignorance.
As for myself, I am a falible, still growing human and as such have at times let emotion get the better of me, have been one-sided, have failed to take a step back, and have been tempted by fantastic, appealing "conspiracies" (you know, when something new and exciting makes you get a bit reckless). I can freely admit to these failings along this journey. And through it I have listened to the opposing side and cast many things aside, or have been given enough doubt to where it doesn't really matter.
But even after analysing my own failings and lessening my personal investment there are still things about 9/11 that my logic and scientific knowledge question. And if someone thinks they KNOW all the answers, and that having doubts can never be due to
actual skills like the ones I possess, then they are way too full of themselves for me.
