but like evolution, the odds of coincidence are just too extreme. sure, you might get 1 in a million wrong (or less), if u rely on statistics. but those who believe in coincidence theories sure believe in a *lot* of chance. its a wonder they don't complain that the lotto is rigged, because they didnt win.

The problem, I find, with science today, is that it has a solidly placed and rock solid idea of what truth is. Or what truth they want you to believe. Or truth that must be presented in order for the Darwinian, atheistic, evolutionist paradigm to work.

No longer do men of curious minds follow the observations, evidences and discoveries, like a trail of bread crumbs, until they find the real truth of this universes hidden facts and the events of our history.

No, alternately, they sift through the various observations and glean out the few things that can be bent to fit the predetermined "truths".

Anyone who dares to not follow this action. Those who present all the findings in the raw and present views that, although sound in repeatable observation, contradict the main agenda... are ridiculed, discredited, and their work hidden, destroyed or generally wiped of the table.

No longer do "peer reviews" have the integrity to fulfill the role of their design. On the contrary, they only reinforce the assumptions, speculations, and extrapolations that is necessary to fit the square pegs in the round holes as necessary to hold up the predetermined and mandated "truth".

At the very bottom of all of these works of mankind.... the wisdom of those accredited individuals that the world would call wise...is the diminishing of the need of a creator, the existence of God or any other spiritual dimension. Anything supernatural is scoffed at and named as a fairy tale.

God is being removed and Christians follow along with the crowd like a frog in a pot of water that is slowly heated to a boil.

God has said that He will prove these wise men to be fools.

God has given us a book of truth. We are wise to listen to it as the words of a God that can do anything.

We should test anything that we are told is solid truth, compare it to the words of the God that created it and question those that refuse to have the faith that we have in the fact that God is truth.

The problem with "conspiracy theories" is that there is no solid, smoking gun, to prove either way..

Other wise they would be "Exposed" facts.

So, although it would be nice to know if it is propaganda or not... but... if this was known... there would be no theory.

The problem with "exposed facts" is that they don't eliminate the phenomena of "open secrets".

QUOTE="bcbsr, post: 73351959, member: 7696"]Actually Wikipidea says the term showed up earlier than that. In fact the idea that the term "conspiracy theory" originated by the CIA in the 1960's is itself a conspiracy. See Nope, It Was Always Already Wrong - CSINope, It Was Always Already Wrong - CSI

I don't think anyone here meant to suggest anything g as ridiculous as that the CIA invented the term.
No, the evidence is solid that the CIA only demonized the term.
Sorry you were thrown off course by that misinformation.

Agreed.

Does anyone get annoyed when someone goes "oh you're a conspiracy theorist" or says that what you bring up is a conspiracy theory? This can be troublesome to deal with and take.

There is an origin to the term. The term conspiracy theory was created in 1967 by the CIA. To discourage people from challenging whatever government propaganda or narrative is put out. You can look this up all over the search engines. The term is used to dismiss or brush them off as crazy. Especially by people who aren't in tune with hidden truths regarding their surroundings.

Isaiah 8:12 mentions the word conspiracy for some versions of the bible. What is your interpretation of that passage?

The faithful must not forget. This world is Satan's world. God is allowing him to have dominion in a world of fleshy desires that doesn't want you to acknowledge or repent of your sins. A world in rebellion against its creator.

Oh please.
I just had correct an OP I didn't notice was mis-worded (I hope)

Rather, what is Yahweh's Interpretation.

People are allowed to translate, but forbidden by Yahweh from their private interpretation.

Few people ever bother to find out the difference, and seem instead to be 'proud' with whatever (wrong) interpretation they find 'comfortable' for themselves.

It's as if there's a devilish or demonic conspiracy , isn't it ?

The problem with "conspiracy theories" is that there is no solid, smoking gun, to prove either way..

Many 'conspiracy' theories are truth, and some were proven easily.
The evidence in fact is covered up, right, by those who try to pawn it off as a false conspiracy theory because their own job is to do that to protect the evil interests involved. (often 'greed'; 'power''; 'profit' (humongous profit); 'political status')

Other wise they would be "Exposed" facts.

That's when it is admitted as in a "whistle-blower" brings to light the facts, documents, conspiracy, actions and so forth.....
always seek the facts - the ones that those in power seek to cover up.

So, although it would be nice to know if it is propaganda or not... but... if this was known... there would be no theory.

Often it is a whistle-blower (truth teller) exposing the facts. The elite, powerful, foolish, bigpharma, money-mongers, do not like such whistle-blowers, do they? So they change the facts ad lib (on a whim), and call the facts , the truth, a lie, a 'conspiracy theory' is convenient...
