We've all heard some real whoppers. Secret societies controlling the world, mind control in TV, planned genocide from Greenpeace, etc. We laugh at the funny ones and shudder at the horrible ones, but do we ever actually analyse them? Which theory, of all that you've heard, do you think is the worst.

My worst theory: That the Holocaust not only didn't happen, but that the sham presented to the world was produced by Hitler as a result of an agreement he had with the Jews to conceal their smuggle into Palestine. It's wrong on so many levels.

How about you?

I think you've already mention it. I also think the JFK assasination conspiracy is pretty weak!

The Holocaust Theory is totally bogus.

This crazy lady told me one this morning while I was waiting for a bus!

She said that the Russians can controll the weather via something using Telsa coils referred to as HAARPS. Apparently Telsa sold a select feew men from Russian and America this information, and they used it to win the Vietnam war. Then she told me today was going to be hot.

Dumbest theory?...

for me, a man everyone says is so stupid that he cannot speak english well, can't recall history, can't do math, is dumber than his advisors, yet is smart enought to steal not one but TWO elections.

Yeah, a lot of the incredibly complicated conspiracy theories just make me laugh right out loud. Sure, it is possible for the government do something in secret, but pretty damn difficult! Try and co-ordinate four guys ordering a pizza, and then explain to me how there are thousands upon thousands of people all working to 'hide the truth'. Do you really expect me to believe anything that involves "the entire Jewish people" being involved in some secret plot? Do you have any idea what that would actually require?

A book by Spider Robinson "Lady Slings the Booze" explains why the US cannot get away with any conspiracy. It's because our Media would pick it up and spash it on every newspaper, magazine, and tv station for the world to see.

I dunno, but it reminds me of that first Bond flick with Roger Moore - Live & Let Die - where ALL the black people (except for one black CIA agent) are IN ON IT. It cracks me up everytime I see it.

The worst? Probably the thread that spawned this one. But I generally like conspiracy theory. It's usually highly amussing and makes an interesting base for fiction.

Then again, all I know is that I exist and that life is suffering. Beyond that, hell if I know. It could (have) happen(ed)! :D

I don't know about media involvement would kill all conspiracies. Sometimes the conspiracy makes for better news than the truth.

Look at Hearst, he didn't care what he printed, as long as it was good for him, and he dominated the press.

My new favourite is that ther is this guy. He's supposed to be sooooooo stupid, see? And somehow, in spite of that, he ends up in control of a major world government. And then, when he gets there, he got some other guys to blow up some stuff so that he could have an excuse to invade a third, completely unconnected country, and arrange to have close friends get rich off of rebuilding it, even though no one in their right mind wants to even GO there, much less stay around and rebuild things.

Then the dumb guy, he tricks millions of people into letting him stay in office. It has something to do with that guy from The Terminator, and some old dude with a pacemaker that is really evil right-wing nut job fundie, except his daughter is gay, but he won't, like, hang her out in front of the TV people and say, "See, I'm not evil, 'cause my daughter is gay!" Instead he says stuff like, "Yeah, she's gay. So what?"

And then the dumb guy, he like hatches this plot and stuff to not find the guy that did the explosions and stuff, up at the top, so that he can keep the troops overseas. Now this is the part where I get a little confused, because you would think that keeping all those peoples' fathers and sons and husbands and stuff in a war would make people want to get rid of him, but he's a dumb guy, so he doesn't know that. And people all over the world are all, like, "We don't want this war!!!!!"" And he's all like, "La la la la, I can't hear you!"

And then somewhere in the middle there is a part about free elections in Afghanistan and Iraq for the first time in, like, forever and a half, but I don't know where that part is suppose to go.

Maybe, but it could be years. IranContra for instance

There are so many conspiracies out there it is impossible to tell the real ones from the imagined.

History has shown us that our (and other's) leaders are quite capable of pulling off some incredible shams.

Slender Goddess

that french fries are from belgium.

The Moon Landing Not Happening Conspiracy...

man what a stupid one...

Hot in Australia? who woulda thought?

The "liberal media" conspiracy theory

This neo-fascist was telling me once about how the Jews had poisoned everybody's minds and that people only thought certain ways because they had a "jewish way of thinking."

He also tried to suggest that some diabolical coalition led by the Jews and the Gays ran every government on Earth, and that everyone but him and his fellows, and whoever he was talking to at the time, was in on it.

The Vatican is a tool of Satan, and the Catholic church is behind communism.

The vast right wing conspiracy.

The humans-developped-over-all-creatures-because-of-aliens-who-visited-earth conspiracy

EDIT: Forgot the the-government-is-poisoning-us-with-those-'tracks'-planes-make-in-the-air conspiracy... They're both equally lame

Alien abduction theories.

There probably are aliens somewhere, but I doubt we've met them yet.

I have heard many, of course the Kennedy theory is pretty weak..

the dumbest one I have heard was one about george Bush co-operating with Bin laden to make september the 11th so that he could gain oil in Iraq and have an excuse for it and that Bin laden is really in America under Bush's security and that the war of terrorism was just a plan so that Bush could be re-elected into office..

you'd be shocked how many pathetic people believe that one! people who really should know better. i guess the uniform scares them!

The goverments of the world are secretly run by a group of 3000 year old miniature dragons living in a suitcase in the attic of the White House. *nod*

That Iraq had WMDs.

Anything related to the Holocaust or the Illuminati

Yeah. The Whole Haarp thing. Its not as nutty as it sounds. Yet it still doesnt make sense because then "Theyd" be using it to make more favourable weather conditions or something.

My favorite Jack Chick conspiracy is that the Catholic Church created Islam as a means of waging war against Protestants .... never mind the fact that Protestants didn't exist until 1000 years after Islam came about ...

But ... hey ... it's Jack Chick. :D

First one to mention anything remotely related to David Icke gets a swift kick up the backside.

Its not fair to ridicule him, that guy just plain needs help.

That the entire scientific community is covering up all the evidence for creationism to promote their Satanic lie of eviloushun*.




*Purposefully misspelled.

I'm not mentioning David Icke or anything, but I have a theory that giant, shape shifting... alligators are secretly controlling the world. ;)

i hate george bush as president. i didnt vote for him either time, i run him down every chance i get

but that theory really pisses me off. NO american president would ever do anything like that. EVER. no matter how little i think of him, its just NO

Woo Yeah!

Cthuhlu R'lyeh Wgah'nagl fhtaghn!!!!

Probably the worst conspiracy theory I've ever heard was that Melkor Unchained and Menelmacar were the same person. :D

HOW DARE YOU!!!
IT did happen people like you kiss Hitler's ass! :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

The Moon Landing Not Happening Conspiracy...

man what a stupid one...

Actually, of all the stupid conpiracies that I've heard of, this is the only one that may *possibly* be true.

What the hell are you talking about?

I think Strom is trying to say the Holocaust did happen, The statement was just poorly punctuated.

I think they should call it something than the holocaust. Its so melodramatic.

Everyone seems to be forgetting the biggest conspiracy theory that has infiltrated every race and era.................religon.

The best de-bunking of the "US landing on the moon was done by Hollywood" conspiracy theory:
http://www.badastronomy.com/bad/tv/foxapollo.html

And the guy is... an astronomer! He works at Sonoma State U (see the Who Am I?) section.

The worst conspiracy theory I've ever heard is that God actually made everything as it is now. That's followed by the Holocaust being propoganda.

I've heard so many bad ones about the Free Masons and the Jews making an alliance and controlling every government.

The stupidest conspiricy theory I have ever heard is that the reason Hitler always survived the assination attempts on his life is that in the future there will be a tyranical Nazi State with time travel technology who kept on going back in time to warn him. They even tried to help him win the war but when they realised they couldnt force it they just left it alone.

the most ridiculous one: abortion is a systemtic method of black genocide
www.blackgenocide.com
its retarded

That Iraq had WMDs.
Oh! I forgot about that one!

Conspiracy theory... that needs more definition...

but ignoring the word "conspiracy", i'm going to say the big bang theory, simply because it is the most misinterperated and misused theory around.

*Kinjion, king of Hesparia, is suddenly lynched by a mob of "enlightened people", atheists, people who think they are right, and hot-heads.*

BELGIUM!

The Belgium Conspiracy has been going around for quite some time now, and surprisingly few people have realised how ludicrous the whole thing is. I mean, a country that's sort of half france and half holland, and produces chocolate and sprouts? You've all been duped! And what the hell kind of name for a city is Antwerp? And has anyone ever actually met a belgian?

On a similar note, i've never met a Nimzonian.

That's because Nimzonia is a made up country.

ah. the naive' patriotic, how I urge to rejoin those masses

The "liberal media" conspiracy theory
that one's the funniest

:rolleyes: indeed, its ludicrous, aint it? :rolleyes:

The vast right wing conspiracy.
Its not a conpiracy, cuz its not hidden to anyone.

That Iraq had WMDs.

yeah, that one's pretty dumb

Probably the "the Holocaust didn't happen" theory
Followed closely by the fact that the government likes you and is there to serve you.

Well, I wouldn't say that the government likes anyone, but the government is in place to serve the people. Especially in a democratic state. It's just that somehow, the dêmos, people, in my country have somehow managed to f**k it all up.
