Can you give an example of a "paleoconservative" conspiracy theory?
Because I think there are plenty of "9/11 was an inside job" types who aren't very religious or might be atheist or agnostic. Same with vaccines. And a lot of the UN-related ones tend to attract libertarians who often don't fit the mold of Christian fundamentalist.
Take the stuff this guy is apparently so paranoid about, for example.
I've acknowledged that the OP sounds a little over-generalizing, but I'm not talking about the non-religious conspiracy theorists.
religious conspiracy theorists are religious?
I've been having serious communication problems with people lately...
But, yes, I'm specifically inferring about the relationship between religious fundamentalism and conspiracy theorists who claim to be religious paleoconservatives.
I don't think religious paleoconservative-types like NJ Christian and Chuck Baldwin (I assume this is the kind of person you're talking about) are that skeptical or questioning about everything, just organizations and institutions that their ideology causes them to distrust, like the UN, the Federal government, multinational corporations, etc.
Also, Agenda 21 and REAL ID are undeniably real.
So in other words, religion is generally the reason that these conspiracy theorists question those institutions rather than something which exists outside the purview of their political ideology?
I mean, I suppose
that was obvious, but it also seems rather disingenuous that one would question just about everything involving some form of hierarchy with the exception of religious dogma.* I don't come across many paleocons who've cooked up a bunch of inordinate theories about Christianity or their churches.
