Overview

News of conspiracies has spread broadly by the Internet, radio talk shows and thriving publishing efforts. The theories are confirmed by some of the government's own declassified reports, by prominent leaders who publicly favor global government, and by interpretations of Bible prophecy and alleged Bible codes that predict such events.

But what is the truth? Is there substantial counterevidence, or does the weight of data confirm the conspiracies? In this book Paul Coughlin summarizes the main ideas conspiracy theorists have about a one-world government as well as the role of the media, end-times teachings and the Jewish community. He uncovers the facts about secret plots and the reasons that so many people believe them to be true.

This objective and comprehensive survey offers clear data and a compelling analysis of the truth about conspiracy theories.

Unfulfilling

Written by MikeCG on August 8th, 2007

  • Book Rating: 4/5

The promise of the synopsis ("He uncovers the facts about secret plots and the reasons that so many people believe them to be true") is not fulfilled by the book, which turns out to be a boring, and boringly narrated, litany of repetitious details, primarily about Waco and Ruby Ridge and little else. Nothing new here, nor are there any insights into why so many believe secret cabals are out to get them, and to rule the world. On the other hand, it helps to explain why people buy into the James Bond/007 "supervillains" with headquarters hidden inside tropical volcanos - and why people believe in the boogeyman. Hey, maybe it's in our DNA, and Darwin was right after all. Pass on this one. But look under your bed tonight. You might find more than dustballs.
