OK then, so there are those who do not believe and those that do. This picture is for those who do not believe. Please explain the purpose or circumstance of these contrails that either converge to a specific point or begin to diverge from the specific point that this picture clearly illustrates. There are at least 3 trails that meet at the point and end or begin, take your pick. I can offer no explanation other than there they are.

Yeah, speaking of snark...the author uses more sarcasm than absolutely necessary, but then he gets accused of being In On The Plot, and worse; it's hard not to reply in kind, but it doesn't help with somebody looking in from the edge of the rabbit hole. But not many people are taking the debunking of this seriously at all, so I'll refer to it until something better turns up.

Egad I read back and it hits me. . . if this is representative of education in this day and age. . . We in some deep dodo folks. Yikes. Logic is no longer encouraged, real world thinking is frowned upon. . .and Darwinism isn't allowed to take these fools from the gene pool.
Oh, and the screen name? It comes from when I was an Aircraft Refueler. Of course that just means to the "Faithful", I'm in on the scheme, and CANNOT BE TRUSTED!!!1!1eleventy!1!

This whole agrument is like claiming modern car engines are magical because the exhaust smoke doesn't look like Granpa's old Model A
Now that makes sense.

dude that is pure dihydrogen monoxide. it can like totally kill you. At STP as little as a depth of 2 inches can cause death by oxygen deprivation. Heat this terrifying fluid to temperature as little as 100 degrees Celcius and it can cause traumatic scalding to exposed flesh! My God, ban this evil substance now! In the meantime, cup of tea, anyone? I've got the kettle on.
