I love a good conspiracy. I really do. Being in them is the best. The whispers, the secret messages, most of which mean nothing, not to mention the secret handshakes and the knowledge that you are in the in crowd. You know something that most people don’t, and if they did, it would change their world. That being said, you cant always be a part of every conspiracy, and to an extent, I am glad. I often wonder what it would be like, if it turned out that there really was a shadow government running things behind the scenes, and I found hard, concrete proof. I don’t know what I would do. I mean on one hand, here I would be with evidence that would prove that life is not as we believed. Some may not want to believe it, but then, some might, and for those who do, they cannot go back. Every significant piece of information, once really understood, should and does change us. That being said, if you knew, and could prove, that for instance, crab people were really running the world, should you really tell people? This would be important, life changing. We would have to break out some serious amounts of butter and big pots of boiling water to wage war on our crustacean masters. But should you tell some one something like that? We would build our lives on how we perceive the world; if that perception is challenged, we resist, and if it is destroyed all together, our minds may well snap a bit. Is it really fair to do that to some one? To in essence destroy their world? Maybe conspiracies are secret for a reason; the people who should know, the people who can handle knowing, will find them. Maybe the knowledge is worth it; maybe its not. Maybe its worth just living life in ignorance, and being happy with our chosen reality.
