Something I was thinking about recently after a conversation with a friend.

I love a good conspiracy theory. Big fan of Art Bell before he went all right-wing, and enjoyed alternate viewpoints even if they were a bit wacky or far fetched.

Thing is, I don't really believe them. They're a fun mind-exercize in viewing things from another angle. Sometimes I will lean harder into at least considering a conspiracy theory to be the correct theory, but if shown or told something that contradicts it, I'll go with the more plausible explanation.

I want to believe in ghosts and UFOs and the bermuda triangle and the Bell Witch and Mothman. But I need to see proof and plausibility to go with it....
