What is Missing From the Conspiracy Theories the Secular Right Promulgates?

10/22/2019

I am favourably inclined to conspiracy theories, which means I am, at the very least, willing to entertain or consider the claims most conspiracy theorists make. This willingness stems from being acutely aware of the Establishment’s strategy of branding as a conspiracy theory anything that challenges the official narrative, and the knowledge that the Establishment always employs the conspiracy theory label as a pejorative - as a means to discredit and ridicule those who dare to contradict mainstream accounts of current events or history.

Although I am open-minded about conspiracy theories, I must admit most of them leave me unsatisfied. I find many to be irrelevant. Some are simply outlandish or downright silly. Others, too messy and convoluted. Conversely, many are too neat and methodical. Nevertheless, a handful of conspiracy theories do offer helpful insights that are usually closer to the truth than anything the mainstream media manages to concoct. Some of the most plausible and believable conspiracy theories emanate from the secular right, but as plausible and believable as these secular rightist conspiracy theories are, they frequently lack the one crucial component that would make them virtually undeniable – a focus on the spiritual objectives behind the material machinations.

A big problem with secular right conspiracy theories – at least for me – is ultimate objectives. In other words, what do those on the secular right believe the conspirators ultimately want to achieve through their sinister plotting and scheming? Well, according to the secular right, the Establishment’s conspiratorial objectives are as follows: the destruction of the family; moral inversion (especially through sex); power consolidation; economic, political, and social tyranny; enslavement; disenfranchisement; civilizational dissolution; the abandonment of tradition; the eradication of nations; perpetual surveillance and spying; and the establishment of a globalist, one world government. The objectives themselves appear solid enough. One does not have to stare at the world too much to find evidence that the Establishment is indeed actively pursuing these goals in the world. But there’s the rub. What force, motivation, or desire drives the Establishment's conspiratorial objectives? 
 
Let’s imagine the Establishment succeeds in achieving all of its objectives. One world government has been established. The Establishment owns and controls everything. People are family-less, impoverished pervert-slaves with no sense of identity and no place to call home. They can’t remember or are afraid to recollect anything from the past and are at the complete mercy of the Establishment. Great! Mission accomplished. But here’s a question – what does the Establishment do after that? Simply lord over everyone to ensure maximum misery is in effect at all times? Torture people for the fun of it? Conduct bizarre transhumanist experiments in an effort to create some kind of Nietzschean superman? Depopulate the planet and let it heal so that it becomes a global five star resort where the Establishment can enjoy a permanent holiday while being catered to by a select group of servants they spared from the sword or the gas or the virus? Nuke the planet and unleash the ultimate Gotterdammerung that consumes everything including them?

When assessing the Establishment’s plots and schemes, the secular right focuses exclusively on physical and material considerations in this world – and that is where their theories fall short. Above all else, the Establishment seeks to establish and maintain a system of damnation through which it can perpetually turn people away from Heaven and the Divine. The establishment works to create conditions in which people willingly reject God and actively embrace their own damnation. The objectives outlined above, such as destruction of the family and the dissolution of nations, are all simply means to that end. The Establishment does not wish to outright destroy us during our mortal lives; instead, it seeks to inspire us to destroy our immortal lives through the choices we make, the thoughts we think, and the actions we take in this world. That is what the secular right refuses to acknowledge and that is what their conspiracy theories ultimately miss.

It's a massive oversight - akin to thinking an iceberg is nothing more than what can be seen above the water.

By alienating those who don't believe in your personal fairytales, you are dismissing reality as it is...

Believe what you want, but, don't expect the majority to follow you in your shortsightedness.

@ wha? - The goal of this post was not to alienate, but to draw attention to what I perceive as a major shortcoming of secular rightist conspiracy theories. Having said that, the secular right has been alienating the religious right for ages through their scorn for the religious right's "fairytales" as it were.

You mention reality, and that it what it comes down to in the end. You accuse me of dismissing reality as it is; I believe those on the secular right are dismissing reality as it is.

But I agree with the notion you express in the second line of your comment, and I offer the same in return - Believe what you want.

The totalitarian government is already here, they have one world government already they are just below the surface. You are correct in your assertion that they have philosophical as well as material reasons for what they have, and are planning on doing but you should know that they also very much love torturing people. I know because I am one of the unfortunate people who has uncovered
their activities.

@ Ejesus - Thanks for the comment. Material and philosophical reasons are secondary. The main impetus of the System is spiritual - it seeks the damnation of souls. That is the ultimate torture it seeks.

Francis, You have nailed it. I just finished reading “The Battle is the Lord’s” by Tony Evans for the second time. I highly recommend it for all Christ followers. In it Pastor Evans explains the nature of the war we are engaged in. A war that is being waged not just in the physical world, but that which is also being waged in the spiritual realm. Most importantly this book explains the strategies of our opponent and how to overcome him given that the victory has already been won.

Thank You for your insight.

Thanks for the comment, PBR. "A war that is being waged not just in the physical world, but that which is also being waged in the spiritual realm." That's the essential point I attempted to draw attention to in this post.
