When things happen that are world changing, we as humans feel much more comfortable in believing that there was some powerful group behind that change, whether the change was good or not good. We like to believe in some grand plan.

we humans are not comfortable believing that a single, unknown individual can have that much of an effect on our world. So we invent conspiracy theories because that makes us more comfortable.

Yes, and sometimes there really are conspiracies. Both exist, no?

A point of view that traces its self back to 1963 and not before.

That theory is ALWAYS!!!!!!!!!!!! bandied about. It is pure BS. People go for conspiracy theories, not because of some inability to accept horror (that implies depth and thinking to humans), but because people are ignorant GD f’ing fools. Period. Con. theories are fun, exciting, and allow the ignorant to pretend to be world-wise. “See how cynical I am? That’s because I know the REAL story, and you do not.” People, are ignorant, stupid, and lazy. Remember, 60% (IIRC) of voting age Americans cannot name the vice president.
