Now do you believe in coincidence, predestination... or conspiracy?

That sounds familiar, I think I read it somewhere else.

It is neat though to read

Ya it' s on various special interest sites.

Yeah, i have seen it too. It makes you think. But then again, that is what a coincidence is it not?

There are a lot of things about the assassination of Kennedy that make you really wonder. I believe that soon in the future the National Archives will be releasing something of all of the full reports about assassination. I remember seeing it mentioned that everyone will know the truth by so and so date at the end of the movie JFK, with Kevin Costner. It' s a good movie although it leaves much to be desired in terms of actual events. If you want to see an interesting take on the assassination then check that movie out, as I said it really is a good movie.

One more thing to add to the list: both Lincoln and Kennedy probably weren' t going to live much longer anyways due to chronic diseases.

That is one insane conspiracy! I' ve never seen that! How ironic.

I very much believe in corruption of government, especially mine. (The US) It is my opinion that the government had them killed because they were becoming problems.

On another note: I am pretty parinoid, so it may just be me going crazy.

those are funny coincidences, but to say that their must be a conspiracy behind their deaths b/c of those facts is kinda stupid. Wow, so lincon' s secretary' s name was kennedy and vice versa, they must have been killed by the CIA.

Well, technically speaking, it was a conspiracy to kill Lincoln... a conspiricy of disgruntled Confederate sympathizers, to be exact. They had a whole hit list of people to kill and everything (if memory serves, the night of Lincoln' s shooting, someone else from that group tried to kill the Secretary of State).

I have heard this presented more as a " reincarnation" theory than a conspiracy. Either way, i think it is really just a lot of coincidences.

Ah man that' s some wierd S***

Wow, Canadian politics are so boring compared to the US politics.
