Fiction better than Fact!: Conspiracy Theories.
Hi all,
Today's Sydney Morning Herald had an article called "Loony landing". Glen Nagle, education manager of the Canberra Deep Space Communications Complex, says he is confronted every other day with people who still believe that the lunar landing was all staged. Some of the article's reasons for conspiracy theories were ... real life is boring; feelings of manipulation; distrust of authority and published information; inability of people to differentiate fact from fiction; proliferation of hoaxes makes people unduly skeptical.
Conspiracy theories never seem to die out and they are re-cycled regularly. One being the supposed cover up of UFO activity by various defense departments e.g. Roswell UFO incident.
Anyone like to add to this plethora of conspiracies!
Regards Rob.
