But religion is "respected" and "sacred" and cannot be touched by those who question it.
Conspiracy theories are constantly being put down even when they are valid questions and very part of the real world.

I just realized something very baffling.
How can people faithfully believe in their religion, yet completely deny any validity in conspiracy theories?
Or do these go hand in hand? Are these people just incapable of rational thinking?
At least conspiracy theories deal with something that can be tested and observed.

Because faith in God is a belief in things unseen.

Let's say the Zionists and other Jews rule the world from Israel. When Israel and Jerusalem are all safe and secure under Zionist control, the end times begin. Assume that all happens. What am I supposed to do? Pray harder? Try to escape the end of the world?
Assume 9-11 was an inside job. Even it wasn't, I'll keep voting jerks out of office, but what else can I do?
Assume Aliens are abducting people. Is there any way I can either attract them or keep them away?
Assume any conspiracy you like, and I'll find myself unable to stop it, expose it, or seriously defend against it.
fear is that I'm completely wrong about that, but I haven't seen a conspiracy yet that I can do anything about. I suppose that makes me a "sheep?"
With respect,

Probably not much sense in offering this particular opinion, but for me, there is more evidence for Chritianity then for most conspiracy theories. Further, conspiracy theories are far less important.
Well it depends what ones you persue. Some say the Zionists rule the world along with Israel and with that, the bible says the antichrist will rule in Jesrusalem and Israel will be united in the last days etc (It's just an example more than what the bible actually says). So I agree that some conspiracies may not be relevant but there are a few that shouldn't be shunned either especially when it comes to world politics. Connections can be made with ease in some cases.

Forgot to mention a couple things. 1: the antichrist takes over Israel at the mid-point of Daniel's 70th week, and 2: he slaughters the Jews to the tune of 2/3 dead
Religious people don't have any problem with conspiracies. This is a troll thread.
