摘要

根据自然主义者对疾病的定义，如果阴谋信念是认知功能障碍的结果，那么它就是病态信念。在这篇文章中，我反对相信阴谋论是病态的观点。在回顾了关于阴谋信念病因的几种方法之后，我发现没有一种方法迫使我们将阴谋信念视为功能障碍的结果:演讲者的阴谋信念在解释者看来可能是难以置信和不可动摇的，但在自然主义的框架中，演讲者采用并保持这种信念并不是病态的。

Is it pathological to believe conspiracy theories?

According to a naturalist conception of what counts as a disorder, conspiracy beliefs are pathological beliefs if they are the outcome of a cognitive dysfunction. In this article, I take issue with the view that it is pathological to believe a conspiracy theory. After reviewing several approaches to the aetiology of conspiracy beliefs, I find that no approach compels us to view conspiracy beliefs as the outcome of a dysfunction: a speaker's conspiracy beliefs can appear as implausible and unshakeable to an interpreter, but in a naturalist framework it is not pathological for the speaker to adopt and maintain such beliefs.
