Conspiracy theories

I believe that John Smith did not hang himself for multiple reasons. Why would a rich, famous pianist suddenly commit suicide in the first place? In the scene it showed a cord taken from a set of drapes was around his neck, and he was hung two feet above his piano stool. Steel wire was also ripped from his own piano and also his diary and wide open on his table. First of all, the first detail that does not fit with the suicide of John Smith is that he was two feet above the piano stool. It…

John F. Kennedy’s assassination is the topic of multiple conspiracy theories based on who actually killed the 35th president of the United States, although Lee Harvey is subjected to being the killer. A documentary on the assassination reveals new evidence that Oswald was the lone-gunman. He killed Kennedy in Dallas with his twenty-one dollar, mail-order rifle and that there was no evidence of conspiracy, foreign, or domestic. But why didn't Oswald's first bullet hit Kennedy? Max Holland set out…

There have stood many myths and facts that have been studied continuously that have created a thought of provocative conspiracy. There have been conspiracy theories on John F. Kennedy’s assassination, Paul McCartney’s Death, and government conspiracies such as the existence of the Illuminati. The Illuminati were a group of societal perfectionists that many may blame for the misfortunate design of money, assassination of John F. Kennedy, the terrorist attack of 9/11, and the French Revolution.…

The Manchurian Candidate Conspiracy In the plot of “The Manchurian Candidate”, Captain Raymond Shaw and Major Ben Marco were captured along with their whole platoon. During the capturing, they were brainwashed; however, both sergeants were ordered to eliminate their fellow squadmates. Over the years Ben Marco started having dreams about what happened during the capture. He tried to make Raymond Shaw believe the brainwashers did something to them that made them do those bad things. Ben Marco…

Sometimes, rumors meet a critical mass of belief where people that hear the rumor believe it’s true--except for those that have strong reasons to not believe--because others around them appear to believe it. Rumors reach this point by first spreading among those that have little to no direct knowledge of the topic or a low threshold for belief in the rumor (Sunstein 390). As the number of believers increase, the rumor climbs its way from those with lower thresholds to higher thresholds. If the…

These enormous stones have stood high on the Salisbury Plains of Wilshire, England for over 5,000 years steeped in mystery and folklore. It’s true purpose, no one knows. Stonehenge’s weathered ruins are wrapped in ancient history and has many conspiracy theories looming in its ominous, dull skies. The seemingly endless sky leaves room to speculate and ask questions. I believe Peter Marlow chose to do so on purpose; snapping the photograph so the empty sky fills more than half of the upper…

When hearing the word “Disney” uttered in any situation, a typical person might lightheartedly smile at the the thought of memories from their childhood or vague remembrances of the iconic Disney movies they watched long ago. A Disney fanatic, however, has a completely different reaction. These people don't just have an affinity for Disney, they are completely hooked. The new Disney film Moana is set to release in late November of 2016 and according to writer Eliza Berman, the movie’s story…

I don't believe in the medical conspiracy theories saying that we all are the victims of the big corporation selling us drugs and medications. As far as I remember I rarely have to pay anything when I go to the pharmacy. But, it doesn’t mean it has no cost at all. It’s equivalent of having a lunch but not paying for it. Potatoes have to grow somewhere, nothing is free however people think it is and oftenly mistake science for the magicians. The only who prospers on the human misery are the…

start to turn against each other for their own personal interests. Survival mode sets in once a pandemic begins. The lack of answers creates often false assumptions and people begin to fill in the blanks. Conspiracy theories begin to formulate, and all order begins to disintegrate. Conspiracy theories tend to cause civil unrest and even large scale protests as displayed in the film “Contagion”. These gatherings of people only provide easier transmission routes and that quickly becomes…

The Free Masons: Fact or Theory Are the Freemasons a conspiracy theory? What did the Freemasons do? The group called the freemasons is an organization that is like a sorority for women. (January 2, 2013) The Freemasons is not a conspiracy theory. The freemasons are a very vast organization that will be learned about in this paper if you are willing to open your mind and let everything go and just read and learn. Morality, equality, and service to God; what do these all have in common. Well…
