Do you believe, as David Icke does, that the royal family are shapeshifting lizard people that drink babies' blood?
Perhaps you're of the opinion that the Apollo moon landings were faked in a bid to beat the Ruskies in the Space Race no matter what?
Or maybe you think JFK killed Marilyn Monroe with alien weapons technology harvested from deep within the rectum of John Lennon.
Your favourite conspiracy theories please. Tin foil hats optional.
Well, I do love the moon landings conspiracy theory. And it would be sooo funny if it were true.
But it clearly isn't.
I work with an Apollo astronaut who would punch you in the face if you tried to tell him that the moon landings were faked.
Pete Conrad, the late founder of the company I work for, was another Apollo astronaut. He'd grin and say, "The government must've been really good at faking it, because *I* thought I was walking on the moon."
went to see david icke once, years ago, when he came to do a talk at my uni. Very charismatic, but madder than a box of frogs.
fave conspiracy theory... it's a toss-up between the protocols of zion and the majestic 12
Ooh!
That Paul is Dead one.
That's pretty fun.
If only...
Either way though, he's still around in one form or another!
Conspiracy theories... Hm. I dunno. Sometimes I think that the whole world is conspiring against me, if that counts?

He protesteth too much perhaps?
Nah, I used to believe the moon landings were faked but if you really think about it, that's an enormous lie that hundreds of people would have to be in on. And someone would've blabbed by now, surely. Although it still bothers me that the flag they stuck in the lunar surface was fluttering, which is a bit strange considering there's no wind on the moon. People have said it's because of vibrations as he plants the flag, but that really does look like it's blowing in a light breeze. Which is impossible.

My favourites are Graham Hancock's Fingerprints of the Gods ones, about the pyramids and Atlantis.
The best has to be that the 14 temples of Cambodia are perfectly aligned with the stars in the constellation of Draco - except the one which isn't. Oh, and the other couple of hundred temples in the region which are obviously not to be counted.
But if you ignore 95% of the evidence it's an amazing coincidence.
JFK commited suicide, it was his corpse in Dallas that was shot.
India ad Pakistan were destroyed ina nuclear war, all Indians and Pakistanis are actors.
The gouvernment has been selling fat unemployed people to carniverous aliens for the last 10 years. Turkey twizzlers are to keep them nice and juicy.
Boris Johnson was created by fusing Cameron's DNA, with a teddy bear.
Now sootyj, methinks you might have just made those up!
The question is are these conspiracy theorists acting alone?
I must admit some of it can look a bit fishy, but I must lean more towards the idea that the moon landings were real.
If all goes well America are believed to be trying for the moon within the next 20 years, which would be great.
And china are believed to be sending a probe to the moon to take detailed picutes of the surface, so that would prove if there are the original pods/ flags on the surface.
I liked the one about some bloke called Guy Fawkes who planned to blow up the Houses Of Parliament.
