I'm sorry, but I just don't believe the conspiracy theories. Especially the one in which the conspirators say that "the fire didn't get hot enough to melt the steel"--Who ever said steel needed to melt in order for a building to collapse? All it needs to do is weaken (and it did weaken by about half), and compromise the structural integrity of the building, and 1500 degrees is plenty hot enough to do that. Besides, when the jets crashed through the buildings, they ripped off the protective fireproof coating over the steel beams, anyway.
And as for the theory that there were explosives placed in the building, I've never had a conspiracy theorist satisfactorily explain A. how they could have placed the explosives in the buildings without anyone noticing, and B. how they could also have placed them at the exact spots where the planes hit. Also, just because there was an explosion doesn't necessarily mean there were bombs. I could be wrong, but I'm fairly sure that jet fuel + fire = explosion. Just a hunch. And one of the workers who cleaned up the rubble said they never found any evidence of bombs, anyway. Not even a blasting cap.
I don't believe any other of the conspiracies, either, but those are the two that just make me so angry.
