ok lets say 3 years ago I told you I believe our nation spies on everyone friends, enemies, and their own citizens...you would say that is just a conspiracy..now you would say soo what...Just because you name it a conspiracy does not make it untrue...Like all theories in science just because it is science, does not make it true...

What makes something true?

all theories start as idea's . Conspiracies start from some kind of evidence...Not all conspiracies turn out true like all the things we think science knows turns out true..

For a small example:: Michio Kaku used to teach invisibility was not possible just a couple years ago. Now he knows it is possible

Pop scientist claiming something is true without evidence does not make it true.

What part of Show me the evidence don't you understand?

Claiming that conspiracies are just conspiracies because of a conspiracy doesn't make it anything other than a conspiracy.

things are the way they are...only our observations of things change ...To change your observation of things, does not make something true or false.

First off do we have people in charge of us ? answer is yes...How do they stay in charge of us? Keeping knowledge to themselves and sharing what they want us to know and nothing more...We call that, patents and the right to buy or sell them...Soo once we learn something we cannot just share with the world, first we have to have permission from those in charge.. to give this knowledge freely or selling it.

if that is a conspiracy to you then so be it..
