Would you label someone a paranoid conspiracy theorist if they only believed in a few theories?

Posted by admin as conspiracy theories

What if said person believes that JFK was killed via conspiracy but doubts foul play in the 9/11 attacks?Maybe someone else believes that 9/11 was orchestrated by hidden forces in the government but doesn't believe in UFOS?Perhaps another person may come along in the same scenario who believes in the veracity of all three of the aforementioned conspiracy theories,but would be hard pressed to accept the notion of the moon landings being staged-why is it automatically assumed that either of the three people are paranoid?Can't they just be wrong?
Alright,perhaps I should have rephrased the question to read "Is a Person PARANOID if they
believe in a few conspiracy theories?"

I would tend to disagree with you about the definition of paranoia-I think the symptoms are broader than just an irrational fear of being killed or kidnapped.

I believe that they are conspiracy theorists if they say that they believe in only one theory that cannot be proved by hard evidence.

If the conspiracy is based on incidents directly related to one's real life experiences, then they could be considered paranoid conspiracy theorists.

Well known incidents in the public domain, such as JFK and the moon landings, are not specific to one individual and are thus not, in my opinion, related to paranoia, in the formal definition of the word.

However, I would agree with your contention in a metaphorical sense.
