Conspiracy theories

[Hemera]

Recently I keep hearing about conspiracy theories and having conversations with people who firmly believe in them. A new friend I met at a local group was talking about them and it seems when someone adheres to one they tend to adhere to many. She advised me to listen to David Icke as she feels he is the main source of knowledge of these conspiracies. I had a listen and not sure how to feel now. I've never been someone who has any particular interest in these theories - I guess I'm quite trusting of how things appear to me. For example the moon landing - it had never been crossed my mind that it could be a set up. I'm not sure if I'm incredibly naïve, but I suddenly feel a bit disturbed in regard to many things in life. I'm not silly enough to believe that there is never any underlying agenda - I know that the way the media operate and also how many powers that be behave, show how much society is controlled and manipulated. But despite all that I guess I try to hold onto the goodness of things and people. Are most spiritually minded people convinced of conspiracy theories?
