The other reason could be that in America, paranoids make up for a larger contribution to the population than in your average european nation.
A general trend I see is that it's almost always accompanied by a large degree of mistrust towards the government (Obama being the antichrist is a rather good example) and that could perhaps in part be explained simply by the size of the nation. What do you guys think? Are any of these ideas or assumptions true?

Well it does seem to be mostly an American thing but I have stumbled upon a few European conspiracy nut sites that talk about how the EU will be the end of us all.
