Theologian talks about 9/11 and how religious people view it
Many people probably are aware of David Ray Griffin and his books. In this video, he talks about various aspects of 9/11 and how various religious people view the attacks.

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article8765.htm

Professor Griffin covers topics he says have been inadequately answered by the commission. These include questions surrounding the attack on the Pentagon, the way in which the World Trade Center towers collapsed, and the behavior of President Bush and his Secret Service detail following notification that a second plane had hit the WTC. The talk was hosted by the Muslim- Jewish- Christian Alliance for 9/11 Truth (www.mujca.com) and took place at the University of Wisconsin in Madison. Includes Q&A.

Author Bio: David Ray Griffin is professor emeritus at the Claremont School of Theology, where he taught for over 30 years (retiring in 2004). He has authored or edited over two dozen books, including "God and Religion in the Postmodern World," "Religion and Scientific Naturalism," and "The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions About the Bush Administration and 9/11."

1. nice try
but if your posts even includes the numbers 9 & 11, it will inevitably be resigned to the Sept 11 forum.

sad that. One must hope and yes, pray, the truth will one day be set free.

2. Thank you for responding - We must keep pushing for the truth
The more people we can convince of the many, many inconsistencies in the official story, the less likely that these threads will be buried.

I'm finding that the key is to make sure your sources pass every test.

Lately I've been reading Paul Thompson's 9/11 Timeline account of Flight 11, which is extensively documented from MSM sources:

http://www.cooperativeresearch.org/timeline.jsp?timeline=complete_911_timeline&day_of_9/11=aa11

The "official story" just does not explain many things that happened with that flight. The biggest gap is, Why was SOP not followed? As David Ray Griffin points out, fighters are routinely sent up (about 100 times a year) when a plane goes off course, or communication is lost, or the transponder is turned off. There has been no satisfactory explanation for why this did not happen with Flight 11, since all three of these things happened.

Am I to be labeled a "conspiracy theorist" just because I want to know why SOP was not followed regarding Flight 11? If it was FAA's fault as some claim, why was no disciplinary action taken? Here we have the worst attack on U.S. soil and no one is held accountable.

I am not proposing any theories, but just want to know the truth.

3. Paul used to post here
and may still do, tho i haven't seen him lately. I don't usually frequent the Sept11 forum, but catch threads before they are...well, disappeared there i guess.


kudos to you for approaching thru the Rel/Theo forum ... keep the questions coming and hope that others will again search for the answers.
