Quoting: Anonymous Coward 16439676 If so, do you ever consider that maybe some of your strong beliefs were not a conspiracy, since everything can't possibly be a conspiracy? Conspiracy means to agree together, especially secretly, to do something wrong, evil, or illegal: Most of these "tragedies" in this world are indeed CONSPIRACIES. To further the control of people by the hand of the Government. It's all politics. Wake up, simpleton. |

If you knew what it meant, you wouldn't have to ask such stupid questions. Conspiracy Definition: An agreement between two or more persons to commit a criminal act. [link to www.duhaime.org] So your answer is; if a crime is committed, and two or more people are, or may be, involved in the commission of the crime, then yes indeed, it IS a conspiracy. |

But the question is, if a person believes every single thing that happens is part of a big conspiracy, do they ever consider that they are ever wrong? Do we live in a world where there are no bad people and no one would ever shoot and kill a lot of people? |

Your words, NOT mine, I do NOT personally "believe every single thing that happens is part of a big conspiracy" and am capable of admitting that I am occasionally wrong. The world is full of both good & evil, but what should be obvious is that we CAN'T legislate morality & behavior, any more than we can impose our will on someone...

Anytime anything happens, everyone on this board runs around making countless threads about how it isn't at all what it seems, and there is some sinister plot behind it. Yeah maybe there is some of the time, but EVERYTIME? At some point, you are all just being too paranoid, don't you think? Maybe you should take some time off of GLP and get your heads together for a bit. Sometimes things just happen and there is no secret motive behind them. |
