Doubting Thomas and the Ale House Conspiracies is Jason Etheredge's first novel. It was written between December 2006 and January 2009. This novel discusses many controversial and questionable ideas that are held by numerous conspiracy theorists.
Doubting Thomas & The Ale House Conspiracies is the story of a young man who is discontent with his job of several years who frequents his favorite bar, the Ye Olde Ale House almost every day after work. He has recently fallen for a beautiful young attorney whom he met at the bar. A few weeks later from meeting his new love interest, he also meets an older gentleman named William Stanley. Mr. Stanley resembles a famous comic book creator, has a hacking cough and a broken heart, both of which originated from the terror attacks in New York on September 11th, 2001.
Thomas learns quite a bit about the older gentleman through their discussions at the bar. In Thomas and Mr. Stanley’s conversations, the older man discusses how his wife died and the controversial accusations that 9/11 was not as it seemed. Thomas along with his favorite bartender, Carey, is dubious of the old man’s wild tales and unsubstantiated conspiracy theories. His ‘knowledge’ of different secret societies, including the Illuminati, The Knights Templar, Rosicrucians, Masons, Skull and Bones, Bilderbergs, and the all-encompassing New World Order has Thomas and Carey question his sanity. The conversations at the bar are filled with controversy and unsubstantiated claims, but it’s not until Thomas searches for the meaning of Mr. Stanley’s theories on his own does his mundane life become much more entertaining.
The theories expressed in this novel are based on theories and accusations brought forth by the 9/11 truth movement which hit its peak in the mid 2000’s. There are other theories discussed in this novel that propose that quite possibly the United States and Britain are part of the 12 tribes of Israel. Doubting Thomas & The Ale House Conspiracies is perhaps one of the most controversial and thought provoking novels that discusses the most horrific terror attack on American soil.
