I tried to post this on Sunday, but it got eatin by the Piazo beast; hmm, very suspicious.

If you could have the absolute true answer to any one consipiracy theory what would it be?

well, post your favorite conspiracy theories here. What do we have out their; aliens, crop circles, who shot Kennedy, did we or not go to the moon, the Illuminati, the Masons, the Skulls, heck antipopes and antichrist, Democrates, New World Order, crystal anything.

What out there really bugs you as a conspiracy theory that you want answered; and no, I dont have the answer.


9/11 was an inside job!

That's one that could blow open all the others.
Give me all the answers to that one and we just
follow the money to everything else.

Scarab Sages

Something that has been bugging me since I was just a little zombie: I'd want to know what really happened to Amelia Earhart! Did she just crash? Did aliens take her? Is she trapped in another dimension? Did the Government get rid of her?


What Nostradamus did with his books. :O


I don't think I believe in the moon landing.

Liberty's Edge

I can't think of any of them I believe, so I can't see where I need to know the truth to any of them.
I don't think Roswell was an alien; I think aliens could give a crap about what we do.
I think Oswald did what he did without any help.
I believe without a doubt that we went to the moon; if not the U.S.S.R. had the wherewithal and the motive to debunk us...
I think most conspiracy theories are just designed to sell books and/or t.v. series.


Who did kill Roger Rabbit?


hehe ol heathonsson is a good puppy and likes being sterling silver spoon fed his alpo and never questions his ubermeisters eh? chuckle. Ever watch "Wag the dog". Surely you can't believe that certain agencies dont have the power; knowledge, ability, cunning, and desire to misslead everybody.

I dont know what kinda Big Brother conspiracy is going on, but I hear the are putting chips in prisoners; were gonna have to get chips on our drivers liscenses; there are cameras now installed am a huge number of intersections in Albuquerque, and more to just look around town at people, they already have x-ray backscatter devices to look at you nude while your fully clothed and are gonna install them first in the airports and who knows where else next. Things like privacy, ownership, and personal rights are out the window; heck two years ago our city bulldozed down someones house because they got tired of telling him his weeds were to high. Things are just wacked out of control; guns keep gettting banned so only the bad guys have them and the murder rate keeps increasing in those areas; just makes no sense. Did you know that McDonalds owns almost all the beef in this country and no independant farmer has any clue what beef prices are to get a fair trade? Super farms are taking over so all the food we eat is in the hands of a very few people. How well do you think you could get along with a few well scheduled power outages.

All I am saying in this post is I have been noticing some trends that have me a bit nervous. A sorta calling it New World Order; Ever thought about how hard it would be for the government to say your a terrorist regardless if you are or are not? just saying you are and putting you on a list and you then seem to have no civil rights; and the IRS talk about outside the realm of law; they never even heard of civil rights, though they seem to be presenting a more pleasant face the last few years.

All this going on for real and is verifiable; and ol heathy buys the lone gunman theory and thinks we went to the moon :) sorry to pick. Why are we really in Iraq, why are we not in Korea? interesting, but not big on my list. Same with was Patton murdered intentionally in a car accident the moment he got back from Europe to LA.; hmm.

Every religion could be looked at like a big consiracy; I mean really, we can't really prove anything without leaving some doubt; might be good to have some answers in this department that seems ripe for the need for answers.

Wow, we haven't even scratched the surface very much; anyone have a burning question they just wish they had the answer too? heeh listen to the song by Styx - "Crystal Ball" kind what led me to start this thread.

you know, when I saw the shots of this happening live via msn; the first thing that went through my head was; God, dont let it be us. Meaning that Americans were behind it like the Timothy Mcvie thing; wasnt he the Oklahoma guy? I dont want to believe we could do that to our own.

Weren't they letters he mailed to his son; they only got codefied into books later by some other agency; are you wondering how many letters he wrote and what is in them that havent been released to the public yet?

yeah, lot of very pointed questions about this that have not recieved any good answers, very suspicous, funny how almost everyone involved died of "natural causes" very shortly afterward when peeps started asking questions; their are very, very few people left in the know and they are not talking.

"begin soapbox"

Every single "question" about the moon landing has been answered. (Try this link for starters, but there are more if you look.)

But the big problem is that there have been a lot of scientific work performed by professionals based on either (a) material brought back from the moon or (b) instruments left on the moon. For example the actual distance between the Earth and Moon is measured because some of the Apollo missions left laser reflectors on the moon. In order for this thing to have been faked, then there would have to have been thousands or people either duped to such a high degree that their very livelihood is a lie, or that the breadth of the conspiracy is so large that more people are in on it than not. (And you know the old saying: "two people can keep a secret if one of them is dead.")

I work in the space business (controlling satellites in orbit) and the technology to take man to the moon is not as advanced as one would think. The fact is, this was probably the biggest single achievement in the history of mankind, especially since it was conceived of and executed within a span of about 7 years. Compare that to the amount of time its taking to get the ISS up and working. And it kinda sucks to think that there are people out there who, for whatever reason, don't want to believe it.

Sometimes a duck is a duck and not a pigeon in disguise.

No. I question authority. I have heinous problems with authority. I can't believe I'm allowed to walk free.
I just don't believe a bunch of these conspiracy theorists.
Just because everyone in government is full of crap, guess what everyone else is too.


R-type wrote:

Me neither. I have a friend with a PhD in astrophysics who thinks it was faked, plus my girlfriend is a photographer and she says it looks like a studio. Good enough for me.


Valegrim wrote:

Yes. ;) From what I heard, he burned the books after seeing what they revealed to him.

Language is powerful and I hate how the word conspiracy has been twisted to have a more negative connotation. People conspire all the time. Agencies, especially covert agencies, are in the business of conspiring.

Coincidence is another word that is twisted in connotation.

The one that really burns me up is how marketing and advertisement agencies have stolen the "umph" from revolutionary. There's nothing revolutionary about Tide, even with its new formula.

well, they aught to just do it again and settle it once and for all; I have even heard that they still cant do it due to all the radiation; and yes, the questions were answer, but in the manner of "what is 2+3" "uhm; an number"; sure its an answer, but not a useful one that allieviates the question. Their are lots of problems with it like shadows; lights and all kinds of stuff; face it; we just dont know; maybe it did; maybe it didnt; just do it again.


Conspiracy: Two or more people agreeing to perform an act.
"Hey, Bob! Wanna go to the movies?"
"Sure! Let's go!"
That's conspiracy.

Theory: Hypothysis, conjecture or guess; idea without proof.

The first recorded use of the phrase "conspiracy theory" dates back to an economics article in the 1920s, but it was only in the 1960s that it entered popular usage. It entered the supplement to the Oxford English Dictionary as late as 1997.

Given the nature of some of the "conspiracies" identified with this lable, (Assassinations of JKF, RFK, MLK, Malcolm X, Moon landing, 9/11, et al) it would be presupposed that the "theory" part "without proof" is a given. If the powers that be are indeed behind these kinds of act they certainly would take care to hid evidence thereby preventing the "theorist" from getting the proof that would turn them into a "factist".

It's those who won't do that research and then judge those of us who do that are really causing the problem.

As one of the many many government workers that disposed of the evidence after 9/11, I can assure you, it was in fact a government conspiracy. I will most certainly be murdered as a result of this post, but I feel like the truth deserves to come out. I don't know about the other 10,000 government employees that participated in the cover up and kept secret, or all the legislators and administrators who put aside their partisan differences to cooperate in hiding the truth, but I for one, can no longer stay silent.

P.S. - The Earth is flat! Never believe anything to the contrary.

Here's why the moon landing was real, IMO.

We went to the moon to beat the U.S.S.R. there. It's the ultimate Cold War high ground. If we can get there, we can occupy it, throw moon rocks at whatever city we want to, and shoot down any and all incoming nuclear missiles; it takes a long time for a missile to get to the Moon. You can shoot down incoming nukes with ease; just fling a cloud of explosives and flack in their flight path. We beat them there, and if we faked it, they would've really gotten up there AND done everything and anything to refute our "lunar landing hoax." And they would've succeeded in the refutation, because all conspiracies that involve many people also involve bean spilling of ludicrous proportions.
Going to the moon was truly the pissing contest to end all pissing contests.

Please check your stats, and cite a reference. I think you may have it backwards. Canada, for example, has gun control and vastly fewer gun murders per capita: "the homicide rate in the United States stood at 5.5 murders per 100,000 people in 2004; more than double that of Canada's last year" (Associated Press, 11/8/06).


Heathansson wrote:

I had much the same thought. If I were the Premier of the USSR at the time, be absolutely certain I'd've checked out that story 17 ways 'til Sunday, using all of my nation's (and satellites') resources to do so. Unless you think we were in cahoots with them to perpetrate that hoax... for what reason?


4th edition.

It all has something to do with a wing of the govenrnment controlled by aliens from another planet who have been to the moon and back twice. I'm sure of it.

Actually, come to think of it, I would like to know the whyfor's and whereto's of why that former K.G.B. agent and taleteller was assassinated with polonium. There's a lot easier and less messy (and less aggrivating to the U.K.'s people) ways to quiet someone than poisoning them with an alpha-particle emitter.
It just doesn't make sense to me.

I figured it was to make it obvious who did the poisoning as a warning to others. There aren't that many non-governmental organizations with access to polonium.

Then again, I suppose that's the conspiracy part, eh?

Paizo Employee Director of Narrative

Wonder who fed the Yugo pres that dioxin? That ever get resolved?

Grand Lodge

He was the Ukrainian opposition leader - who, ironically, then was elected president largely due to the outrage his poisoning created. Nobody really knows who did it. But everybody "knows" it was the Russians...

If you ever read Fortean Times, there's an article about it in the latest one.

Actually that goes for everyone. If you don't read Fortean Times you should, it's the 3rd best magazine in the world...

Ummm, last I heard Bush had committed to doing it again. Or is it more conspiracy.

And the radiation you are talking about are the Van Allen radiation belts, which would be dangerous if the astronauts spent any amount of time there, but since they are on an upward trajectory toward the moon, they pretty much whiz right through them.

Again, nope. Shadow "irregularities" can be explained by sloping terrain (the moon ain't flat) and the fact that the lander itself was highly reflective and can cause secondary shadows from reflected sunlight.

Valegrim wrote:

Actually, we do know. A former boss of mine (as I stated above, I work in the space business) was part of ground control for the Apollo project. Now, if he was part of a big fake, then he conned my company and the Canadian Space Agency (Canadian version of NASA) into getting a 6-figure salary because he was part of a big hoax in the 60s.

There's a little thing called Occam's razor that says the simplest solution is the most likely. What's more likely? Really. Ask yourself that question. What's more likely. That there has been a huge snow job going on for the last 40 years involving thousands, if not millions of people? Or that it actually happened?

It honestly completely baffles me why people don't want to believe in the moon landing. Isn't life cooler knowing that we have been there?

Correct. :)


Now, I think people went to Moon at some point. The question is, was it Armstrong et al in 1969 as that was indeed part of Cold War pissing match. Maybe they did it sometimes in 70's but just couldn't then celebrate "this time we REALLY went to Moon..."
IIRC at some point USSR announced the cosmonauts had landed in Sun...understandably, this announcement was quickly forgotten :)

Now, about those yugoloths in 3.5...

They're aren't that many government personnel, either. And the training needed just to handle the stuff safely is quite intense, I think. Using polonium sends a SERIOUS message that you have maximally pissed off some very serious people.

The thread seems to be dying so I'll post another tidbit:

Go online to the UN web page. In their own search engine, type in Agenda 21.

It's a really long section so I would recommend either setting aside a whole bunch of time (plus camping supplies) to read it there, or download it and take it in chunks as you can.

Summation: It's the UN's publicly stated plan to commit massive genocide. They're openly stating that they think there's already too many people on the planet and want to kill off between 80% to 90% of us!!

Yes, that's right boys and girls, the friggin' United Nations wants you dead!

If that's not quite enough to make you think something's wrong do a general internet search about the U.S. prison camps being built under an old Reagan Era plan called REX84. Look it up..I dare you.

Okay, even if the U.N. wants us dead, there is one major flaw in their plan: it would be carried out by the United Nations. A group of people that probably couldn't unanimously decide what to get on the annual U.N. holiday party pizza, much less do anything requiring some kind of real teamwork. If they can't effectively step in on genocides (Balkan Wars, Darfur, etc.?) to stop or prevent them, then how the heck are they going to actually pull one off?
