Whatever caused that tragedy, which I witnessed in person, there are numerous unanswered questions. Asking questions is usually how you get answers to them. People who don't want ANY questions and use pre-emptive childish insults don't get to the truth. Why wouldn't we want the absolute truth, and why couldn't the truth withstand a robust challenge?

Mathematicians challenge accepted dogma all the time as a matter of course; without that, there would be no advancement. At any time in history, there have been beliefs that were completely false that have been generally accepted. The people who challenged those beliefs were of course called names and ostracized (think Louis Pasteur) but in the end many of them are heroes.

You don't know any more than anyone else what really happened, and you aren't even vaguely an authority on any of the issues surrounding 9/11. It is fine for you to accept what you are told, many do, but allow another person to have the courage to form their own beliefs.
