What are some differences between conspiracy theories and urban legends?
Q. I can think of a lot of similarities. I want to teach a short class about conspiracy theories, so try to be serious.

A. There's quite a few differences. Conspiracy theories are generally large, over-reaching conspiracies to try to cover up a secret, or get something done (sinister or not). JFK is the most well-known series of conspiracies, along with 9/11 conspiracies, Illuminati, the Freemasons and other secret societies. Urban legends are small, and have a much smaller impact. No one knows where they came from, as they generally happen to "a friend of a friend," or "one time X happened." They also vary greatly in detail.

A. It's a social issue because there are many stories that virtually everyone, at least in the U.S. accepts as true: Hitler was evil, capitalism is good, communism is bad...etc. The story of 9/11 is that 4 planes were hijacked by Middle Eastern terrorists who flew them into the W.T.C. bringing down the twin towers, the Pentagon and a field I, personally believe that the twin towers weren't and couldn't have been brought down by the planes but were instead brought down by controlled demolition, My version of the story could never be widely accepted now any more than Hitler could become a national hero. First, the majority of the U.S. population would have to admit that it had either been lied to, and fooled, by virtually everyone in the U.S [cont.]
