are they any out there who think there are alot of conspiracies going on out there. they even started a long way back e.g. who said and sat down and planned that africa should be called africa north america north america and new zealand new zealand etc. why do people not eat salt on thanksgiving day and the first settlers of america who came on the mayflower were were the black people who came there why no recognition isnt given to them and why is red red blue blue and why cant green be called yellow.

Try the death of Catherine the Great conspiracy. It is one of the biggest in history. Conspiracies are a constant in civilization. They stem from the need to color every fact in the best light. "Facts" are recorded not by historians but by people with opinions as to what is good and bad and suited for cultural memory. Like the death of Catherine. She died in a horse back riding accident when a block and tackle broke. We just weren't told who was on top. Truth. Then the conspiracy went to the next level of outright lies. We were then told she died in bed of an illness. The horse was removed completely from the story.

The random thoughts you present as conspiracy theories suggest that you don't exactly have a handle on them. IE, Who killed Jack Kennedy? Did the CIA conduct the Trade Towers attack? Has Jon Benet Ramsey's father set up John Karr to take the fall to protect her older brother? Who is covering up the fact that outer space aliens are running the U.S. government? Those are conspiracy theories.

everything is a "conspiracy theory" until the powers that be at the current time of the theory accept it as fact. If you like theories about who determines what and the fate of the world look into the Bilderberg group.

It gets you thinking, why are males called males and females called females. Its all about stereotyping. There was a lesson in school about a man who began calling things differently and at first it was funny when he heard others talk. Then by the time he died no one could understand what he was saying, and he died sad and lonely. Go with it for now.

All conspiracy theories are created by a cartel of nameless Illuminati working under the cover of the CIA and distributed by a network of the Priory of Scion!!

I don't mean to be rude but your question suggest you aren't really clear what a conspiracy theory actually is. Maybe you could do a bit of research?

OK...
but my favourite conspiracy theory is that the Nazi's set up a moon base.
