Hold on the truth to overcome conspiracy theories

As a whole, conspiracy theories spread fear and lies. I believe it’s Satan’s way of twisting the truth and causing fear in Christians.

I know an older person who gets so stressed out about conspiracy theories she reads online. I tell her to judge them against what the Bible actually says and to pray. How do you personally help people who get stressed or sidetracked from biblical truth by conspiracy theories? I think maybe the best way is to quote scripture when relevant. Some are easily debunked with Bible verses or another reputable source.

What do you think? When we see it, is it our duty to speak the truth or should we ignore or avoid conspiracy theorists?
