Other Conspiracies

Do most FEers believe in other conspiracies, because it has been found through study that someone who believes in a conspiracy is more likely to believe in another?

They seem to harbor a few at a time from what I've seen. You wouldn't happen to have a source for or a link to that study would you. I might like to read it. I personally think primal emotions like fear, hatred, etc... are addictive.

Not that they're FE'ers, but there's a trio in my English class that believe in the 9/11 conspiracy.

I don't. 


Well, except the moon landing one, just because its sorta part of FE conspiracy .

Some people here (not FE'ers) seem to think that HIV/AIDS is man-made.

Are we supposed to believe that monkeys created AIDS, planted it in their own brains, and then made humans eat it?

Personally i think that the argument of human creation is slightly more realistic.

No, we are supposed to believe that monkeys contracted a disease which evolved via its own nature, spreading to humans, where it evolved more, into what we have upon our hands right now.

There are reasons that I find the man-made possibility plausible--such as the fact that it's nearly hypermutatable, developing resistances to treatments faster than any disease we know, it's transferred through fluids and not airborne suggesting that it could be controlled (if it weren't for the sexual transmission part, but that could easily be an oversight), and it's has a very large incubation period (causing some to give it to others without knowing that they have it--which is one of the best tools a virus has). But even that evidence is easily overridden. I wouldn't say more realistic for either way.

In my opinion, many Conspiracy theories are bunk. I only assume the existence of the globularist Con because it seems so clearly to exist.
