Conspiracy Theory Slaying

Chapter 9: Law Enforcement One of the most overlooked aspect of conspiracy theories is that of law enforcement. This chapter will discuss the theories that involve individuals in law enforcement and the FBI using their administrative power to cover up errors or abuse their power to falsely incriminate individuals who would otherwise be found not guilty. In anecdotal form, many cases that do not get solved and end up in the cold case files are often the result of police or FBI errors in the investigation. Then, to try and preserve the reputation of the department, they try to make the errors disappear. This can even result in the loss of evidence. This should not be interpreted as a anti-police chapter in anyway. There are many hardworking and dedicated officers that do their jobs well and are interested in protecting the communities in which they serve. The motivation of this chapter is to reveal the nature of the ones who do not. Case Example 1: Mark Fuhrman The star witness...

E-Book Read Online for Free Chapter 0: The Deep State If you read any part of this book, I hope it is this section. If you come away with anything from this book, I hope that it is this chapter on the Deep State because many theories on the Deep State have turned out to be true. It goes by many names: the Deep State, The Shadow Government, The Invisible Government, The Parallel Government, as well as with other compounding theories such as the American Corporate Empire and the Empire of Economic Hegemony. Financial powers control the government. There is an executive branch, as well as legislative and judicial, yet they are all subservient in the established connections of the Deep State. The president, senators, and representatives change, but the Deep State does not change. Massive financial controls have a stranglehold on the government, and they manipulate the government into performing certain actions to suit their special interests...as well as taking advantage of develo...

Chapter 8: Neil deGrasse Tyson - Conspiracy Theories and Skepticism "A Conspiracy Theorist admits they do not have data to prove their point." "Tell them (a conspiracy theorist) to come back when they have the data." "If an argument lasts more than 5 minutes, both sides are wrong." -Neil deGrasse Tyson The quotes above come from Tyson's presentation to a conference referred to as the "I,Skeptic" conference. In short, he was filled in a room with skeptics and he had to cater to his audience.  Let's look at the three italicized points by Tyson, and in short, see where he missteps. What this does not account for is how conspiracy theories have penetrated the academic circles of research. This also does not account for the work of individuals who claim that they have obtained the truth. The work of Seymour Hersh as he broke the stories of the My Lai Massacre in Southeast Asia and the Abu Gharib Prison scandal in Iraq are to n...

"It's not supernatural if it exists in the natural world,  if it takes place in nature. It's natural. It's just not understood." -Guy Lyon-Playfair This chapter will address a different kind of truth suppression. In fact, as opposed to a conscious effort to hide the truth and install a malicious purpose, this will focus on providing an alternative explanation to two major misconceptions of the English language and western culture. The first is Supernaturalism. The second is Mythology. The following will provide an argument that the terms Supernatural and Mythological are misleading and do not represent their definitions in an accurate manner. This will continue into a discussion that will show how the skewed and inaccurate definitions have affected western culture in an unproductive, confusing, and impractical manner. 1) The Supernatural / Supernaturalism  The term supernatural has a literal meaning of something that is above nature. It is trying ...

Attention: House of Representatives First, I will thank you and your staff for your time reading my words. Next, I am writing concerning the U.S. and the Nation of Niger. I am an Academic specializing in the contemporary history of Niger in West Africa. I believe the CIA and the American Special Forces are planning for the destabilization of the country. It is my first suspicion that the death of 4 Americans in Niger was not as the news coverage states, but part of a larger effort to create instability in the West African region. Niger is economically poor and has the lowest standard of living in the world, the same way that Yemen was economically poor and had the lowest standard of living in Western Asia and has now been thrown into chaos. Now CGTN has reported the increase of drone flights in Niger and the Pentagon is going to expand its reach further into West Africa. These actions cannot lead to the destabilizing of another nation for the sake of profit and geo-politics. T...

Chapter 6: The Conspiracy of Religion. The motivation behind this chapter comes from an incident involving Michael Barkun of Syracuse University. While he was involved in a presentation on his book "A Culture of Conspiracy" someone called into the show and asked why don't people target the conspiracy of religion more frequently? The caller went on to elaborate with an example:                           Parents in the Ancient times would tell children not to touch the burning fire because it  will make the fire God angry, and the Fire God will hurt them.  The caller continued to argue that this is an example of a conspiracy theory because it involves individuals hiding the truth and using deception to manipulate and control others.  Let's respond.  There is no hiding it. I am a Doctor of Divinity, so perhaps you can predict where my response will be. First, the definition of a conspir...
