Why do people buy into cons. theories?

> Not very experienced in reading intelligent stuff. So for the first time they hear something that sounds logical on a "higher" (more complicated) level. And then they think: "Great! That is it!"

> Everybody wants to have an explanation for the various phenomenons of the world.

> It is obvious that something that would fall into the category of conspiracy theory is an explanation for various ongoings. Just logic: the big boys are playing their games, and offcourse, we are not invited. Do you know for sure why american trrops are in iraq? No, offcourse not. Neither does your average conspiracy theorist. But some reason might exist...

> Psychological needs: wanting to feel more important, taking the chance to blame others and so on.

> Addcition to the mental thrill. (That's why certain types of literature sell almost like drugs).
