Introduction

Can we say that conspiracy thinking for the masses is a new thing in the information age. Unprecedented in the history of man is that the internet is flooded with pornography in a graphic sense but, more relevant to this article, is it has also produced a flood of ideas and concepts many of which are dangerous to the mind. The ideas and concepts I’m talking about are based in a conspiracy theory mindset and show a lack of critical thinking which is, if you will, a debasing of the mind. The tree of the knowledge of good and evil, like the internet, is not evil in and of itself. I mean didn't YHVH place it there to begin with? The problem is the lack of wisdom and discernment.

Confessions - The Iniquity of the Fathers

⁴⁰ If they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, with their trespass which they trespassed against me, and that also they have walked contrary unto me; ⁴¹ And that I also have walked contrary unto them, and have brought them into the land of their enemies; if then their uncircumcised hearts be humbled, and they then accept of the punishment of their iniquity: ⁴² Then will I remember my covenant with Jacob, and also my covenant with Isaac, and also my covenant with Abraham will I remember; and I will remember the land. Lev 26:40-42 King James Bible

The connections between this paragraph above and these verses is that nowhere in Lev 26:40-42 does it say that we are to make a confession to all the “bad guys” that comes out of mouth of those who have a conspiracy theory mind set. The title of these verses is to confess the iniquity of the fathers, not the inequities of the Canaanites, Moabites, Amalekites, Edomites, Ishmaelites etc. Nowhere in the gospel during the time of Y’shua does it say that we are to confess the inequities of the Romans.
See Confessions per Lev 26:40-42, The Iniquity of the Fathers for more comments.
