Conspiracy theories – I can’t get enough of them! Fortunately there
are so many floating about that we have been able to give you not one, not two,
but now three lists of theories that many people believe with all their
might. Be sure to read the earlier lists if you haven’t already and
feel free to add any conspiracies missing from all three to the comments
here.
10. Area 51
It makes the list because it appears in almost every alien or UFO
conspiracy theory ever devised. The fact is Area 51 is real. It’s a
popular target on Google Earth. Another fact is that the FAA has
confirmed that no air routes go over or anywhere near Area 51, by direct
order from the USAF.
There are television shows purporting to explain just what goes on
there, one even including an interview with “a disgruntled employee,”
who is provided with black-out lighting, but no vocal distortion, and
who states that “it is a testing ground for experimental aircraft. It’s
as simple as that.”
I considered putting the Aurora Aircraft on this list, but since its
existence is tied so closely to Area 51, I use Area 51 as a catch-all of
sorts. It is verifiable now, that the F-117 Stealth Fighter, the B-2
Spirit Stealth Bomber, and the SR-71 Blackbird were all invented at Area
51. This may account for all the strange lights people have recorded
near the base through the years.
But the conspiracy theory goes on to claim that humans were unable to
come up with these technologies. They were, instead, reverse
engineered by studying the technology of the flying saucer that crashed
at Roswell, NM, in 1947. In fact, there may have been other alien
aircraft recovered or even shot down in the area over the years, all of
which have led to the USAF’s mighty power of innovation. The theory
claims that the flying saucer is still there, housed in a secret bunker
or hangar, as are the corpses of the three or four aliens who crashed it
and died.
9. The Clinton Body Count
This one at least seems plausible, as it has nothing to do with
science fiction. This theory states that Bill Clinton, while he was
president and before, was quietly assassinating his associates
(ostensibly anyone who got in the way of his career, such as Vince
Foster). The Clinton Body Count is a list of about 50-60 associates of
Clinton who have died “under mysterious circumstance.” The list began
circulating over the Internet starting in the mid-1990s. The list grew
out of a 1993 list of about 24 names prepared by the pro-gun lobby group
American Justice Federation, which was led by Linda Thompson. The list
was posted to the group’s bulletin board system.
The facts concerning Vince Foster’s death are that he died untimely,
on July 20, 1993, of apparent suicide by gunshot in the mouth. His body
was found in Fort Marcy Park, Virginia. Gunshot residue was found on
the hand which had held the gun. Foster and Clinton were boyhood
friends, both lawyers, and it is believed by the theory that Foster got
too close to uncovering some embarrassing truth about Clinton, probably
of a sexual and/or dishonest nature, and that Foster was assassinated,
less than a year after joining Clinton’s White House staff.
The theorists argue that it is unlikely that a man with a wife and
three children, and an extremely lucrative law practice, earning him
$300,000 a year, would have manic depression, but Foster was diagnosed
with it and prescribed anti-depressants.
8. The Christ Myth Theory
Yes, you read that right. According to this conspiracy theory, the
man himself never existed. His life story, his ministry, his status as
the divine Son of God, is a fabrication of the Roman Catholic Church.
Those who have proposed one form or another of this theory have
documented the similarities between stories of Jesus and those of
Krishna, Adonis, Osiris, Mithra, and a pre-Christian cult of Jesus
(Joshua) within Judaism. Some authors attribute the beginning of
Christianity to a historical founder who predates the time Jesus is said
to have lived.
The theory appears to have been originated by two French
Enlightenment thinkers, Constantin-Francois Volney and Charles Francois
Dupuis, in the 1790s. The theory has always been largely dismissed by
academic circles and biblical historians, in which case, the theorists
simply elaborated on the theory. Not only did Jesus never exist, his
presence in the New Testament is utter fiction, created by the Roman
Catholic Church sometime in the very early 3rd Century AD, or late 2nd
Century, as a means by which to control people. The authorities passed
down the idea to their successors until Constantine considered it a very
good means of control and called the Council of Nicaea to organize the
Church into global domination.
Despite all of the historical proof that Jesus did exist – and there
is plenty of it – there are still many people who would like to think he
didn’t. That is the source of this bizarre revisionist theory.
7. The Antichrist
Satan is alive on Earth, and has created the Antichrist, who is, at
this moment, not quite old enough to seize power, but will in only a few
years. He will do so in a very political manner, taking over some
powerful organization, such as the United Nations.
Every generation, since St. John the Divine wrote the Revelation, has
sworn that it would witness the Great Tribulation, Armageddon, and the
second coming of Jesus. “The end is near,” everyone has been saying.
Now, though, with the advent of global communications, especially the
Internet, the theory has swelled exponentially. Christians who
previously didn’t think much of it have changed their minds. It can be
argued that the worldwide availability of press coverage only serves to
heighten fear of terrible things happening at any moment. 9/11 was the
most well covered, watched tragedy in human history. Wheneer a tragedy
occurs, people who believe in the Christian end-times scenarios flock to
church to pray away their fear.
But now, with the ability to control the entire world actually
conceivable, the paranoia of the Antichrist showing up has become quite
the pandemic. Most terrorists believe he will be male, will arise in
Europe, probably Western Europe, and some even swear that he will be
French. Plenty are sure, however, that President Barack Obama is in fact
the Antichrist. Numerologists believe that the Antichrist is not yet
old enough, but will make his appearance at the age of 30, symbolically
equal to Jesus beginning his ministry. Worldwide terrorism, the current
U. S. led war on it in the hotbed of political unrest, and the fact
that almost every Arab nation seems to be threatening an invasion of
Israel at every second, all serve to make this one feel very real.
Every day CNN is loaded with horror stories about the Holy Land, and it
just seems to keep getting worse. “The end is near.”
6. The electric car
It is a verifiable fact that the human land speed record was set in
1899 at 65 mph by an electric car. Steam and gasoline-powered
automobiles could not achieve this for another 20 to 25 years. Today,
technology has progressed immensely, and yet, we still have no electric
cars. The best production model is the Toyota Prius, which gets 50 mpg.
This only intensifies the theory that the U. S. oil companies
currently possess the technology for purely electric cars, which you can
plug into an ordinary, American wall outlet at night and charge up to a
cross-country trip by morning.
But because this would, in truth, bankrupt the oil companies, they
refuse to release the technology, and have even put out successful hits
on various geniuses since the 1960s, none of whom became very famous,
because he was killed before he could make his publish his discovery. A
documentary in 2006, “Who Killed the Electric Car?” fueled the fire
that if the technology is documented to have existed as early as the
1830s, why did it appear to hits its peak at the turn of the 20th
Century, and then decline? Why are we still waiting for electric cars?
Edison patented one in 1913. All the electrical pioneers of that time
tinkered with the idea, and plenty of reasonable examples were produced.
5. HAARP
The High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program does exist. It is
a research project funded jointly by the USAF, the US Navy, the
University of Alaska, and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency
(DARPA). When you put that many government organizations into one
sentence about new technology, conspiracy theorists come running. Did
you see the 2003 movie “The Core”? It concerns a stall in the earth’s
magnetic field, allowing the sun’s microwave radiation to cook the
planet, until a team goes into the core of the planet and jumpstarts it
spinning again, so the magnetic field will resume.
The movie explains that the stall was caused not on its own, but
accidentally by HAARP, which is researching the ability to create
earthquakes for use as a weapon. The official description of the
program, given by the program, is “to provide a research facility to
conduct pioneering experiments in ionospheric phenomena… used to analyze
basic ionospheric properties and to assess the potential for developing
ionospheric enhancement technology for communications and surveillance
purposes.”
This sounds like the opposite of deep-Earth experiments, but
conspiracy theorists believe the program is a cover for a kind of
particle-beam weapon, first invented by Nikola Tesla, which has in fact
been perfected, or brought close to perfection, by HAARP. The theory
also claims that the ionospheric research is not a lie, but is being
developed for use as a weapon to shoot down enemy spacecraft, or
ballistic missiles, the latter popular especially given that HAARP’s
facilities are all in Alaska, close to Russia. It even speculates that
the weapon could become Tesla’s most infamous invention: “the Death
Beam,” able to project a beam of extremely powerful electricity from the
facility to any point on the planet and create an explosion as
devastating as a hydrogen bomb.
4. The Vril Society
It has been suggested that there is a secret form of energy, called
Vril, which is used and controlled by a secret subterranean society of
matriarchal socialist utopian superior beings. Yes, you read that
correctly. It is similar in this respect to the #2 theory. It also
claims that Nazi Germany discovered this race, and its technology, at
Shambhala, Tibet, and used it to create flying saucers (pictured above).
The whole theory is based on an 1871 sci-fi novel by Edward
Bulwer-Lytton, titled, “Vril: The Coming of the Race.” It is generally
considered an early example of science fiction, but because this genre
was just getting off the ground at the time, it was seen by many as a
non-fiction account of the subterranean race and their technology, a
theory which persists today. The theory really took off in the 1960s.
3. The suppression of Free Energy
This one actually sounds plausible. Nikola Tesla claimed that free
energy was indeed possible, and worked for most of his career to achieve
it. The theory claims that he did, in fact, succeed, just before his
death in 1943, in discovering the mathematics and mechanics involved,
but that the FBI immediately broke into his home and seized all his
papers and work, and has never released any of it to the public.
The concept of free energy is, in very general terms, the ability to
input x amount of energy into a machine, which will output x + 1 amount
of energy. This seems to conflict with the law of conservation of
energy, which states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed.
Tesla believed the law to be incorrect. He invented the Tesla Coil as
an attempt to create free energy.
If it is possible, free energy could be perfected and result in the
entire planet being powered by a single power source, such as a nuclear
power plant, and output all the energy anyone could ever need. An
infinite supply of energy at our fingertips, all based on electric
output. You can see how this would irritate the oil companies.
They are the cause of the suppression, the theory claims, as no one
would have to depend on fossil fuels anymore. Electric input is just as
viable as coal input, or gasoline input. Thus, the electricity
required to power a lightbulb could be all we need to power the whole
world, invent spacecrafts capable of interstellar travel, anti-gravity,
etc.
2. Jesus was a different species
This theory is a lot of fun. It has been alleged that the U. S. and
Israeli governments led archaeological digs in the past, which
discovered the True Cross, on which Jesus Himself was crucified (along
with many others, as crosses were reused). The theories disagree on the
location, most claiming Jerusalem, many claiming Rosslyn Chapel in
Scotland, or various places in England.
Minute traces of blood were discovered on the cross and analyzed.
The DNA was of several strains, and one was encoded not on a double
helix, but on a triple helix! Is this good stuff or what?! The DNA is
unlike any other known, and was labeled as a new species, Homo
superioris. The theory continues that there are other people of this
species currently living underground in various places around the world,
including most of the major cities, and they have been around as long
or longer than Homo sapiens. Jesus made the unprecedented decision to
come up to the surface and live among us, and try to teach us to be
good, and kind and peaceful.
His species possesses phenomenal supernatural abilities, including
telekinesis, levitation (walking on water), telepathy (knowing people’s
thoughts), healing, etc. They are also very difficult to kill, and when
no one was looking, presumably during the freak storm and earthquake,
Jesus got down off the cross and disappeared, having done his job. This
ties in with the Jesus bloodline theory.
1. The Montauk Project
In the annals of paranoia, no conspiracy theory is more labyrinthine,
more convoluted, more encompassing of other conspiracy theories as the
Montauk Project, based out of Camp Hero, Montauk Point, Long Island, New
York. At the extreme northeastern tip of the island there is a massive
AN/FPS-35 radar dish that has long since been decommissioned, but has
been saved from demolition by a petition from the local civilian
residents, who find it a better sea-faring landmark than the nearby
Montauk Lighthouse. This dish features prominently in all the theories
surrounding a hyper-top secret military research facility which
supposedly operated from 1967 to the early 1980s.
Some theories claim that research still goes on there, deep
underground in a facility that was frequently expanded since its
inception. But the theories involving what went on in Camp Hero from
the 1960s on are the best stuff you’re likely to hear in terms of
science fiction realism. The Project began on US Government initiative
in 1952-53, when a secret committee was organized to discuss possible
research into time travel. The methods by which this could be achieved
have never been adequately explained in the theory, but are based
primarily on the work of the two favorite scientists of conspiracy
theorists: Albert Einstein and Nikola Tesla.
Einstein’s general relativity theory is considered the only plausible
jumping-off point to a Unified Field Theory, which has so far not been
discovered. Or so the public thinks. The Montauk Project resulted
directly from the Philadelphia Experiment, which topped a previous list
of conspiracy theories and is claimed by the theorists to be the
accidental discovery of time travel. Nikola Tesla, who supposedly died
in 1943, did not die, but perfected Einstein’s theory, and invented the
mechanics required to stabilize a wormhole, a rip in the fabric of
space-time.
The Montauk Project furthered this research, funded initially by $10
billion in Nazi gold bullion, stolen by American soldiers from an
underground railroad tunnel in Switzerland in 1945. Some theories
include Tesla as the immortal head of the project, traveling through
time to cheat death. The base is said to have created and stabilized a
time tunnel into the past, enabling anyone to go into it and arrive at
any programmed point in the past. But then something terrible happened.
No one can agree on precisely what, except that a mechanical failure
in the 1980s resulted in a horrible monster from a foreign world (and
perhaps from the past or future), which came through the underground
tunnel without warning and severely destroyed the base, before being
killed by unknown means.
The government immediately scrapped the Project, having learned how
to travel through time, and sealed off the entire base, which had grown
so large that it actually extends, to this day, under the town of
Montauk itself, several square miles. The massive radar dish was used
to transmit messages to alien worlds in various times through the
history of the Universe.
Today, Camp Hero is now a state park where anyone may go and picnic
or hike, and yet there are verifiable reports of backpackers and campers
being suddenly accosted by men with automatic assault rifles in the
middle of the night and threatened with death if they didn’t leave. In
all these reports, the men have been said to wear olive drab uniforms
with no insignia of any kind. The film “Sunshine of the Spotless Mind”
was filmed in the area, but not in the state park itself, because the
local authorities charged exorbitant fees, apparently to dissuade the
production from accidentally uncovering any secrets.
The theories all converge at a brilliant end: there is a
concrete-sealed door in the side of a building on Camp Hero grounds,
which leads down, and which no one is allowed to go near.
