Point taken, MartialDev. I'm not intending to say that those who get into conspiracy theories are un-intelligent, just that I don't understand why some minds grasp onto them and some don't, regardless of intelligence level.
I'll also admit that, for all I know, they may be right, but as far as I'm concerned, the burden of proof is on the person coming up with the theory. If that proof isn't offered (and it never is), I have no qualms about dismissing the theory.
