There are lots of reasons to believe that the gunpowder plot was set up and lots to believe it was a genuine plot. read the book 'the making of the UK 1500-1750' it has quite alot of information and sources on page 56-59.

What is the story about guy Fawkes?
Guy Fawkes was a man born on 13th April 1570 in York who died in January 1606. He was the most famous plotter of the 1605 Gunpowder Plot, a plan to blow up King James I of England. He was caught attempting to light a fuse underneath the House of Lords and then tortured for information. On 31st January, 1606, he and his co-conspirators were due to be executed, on which day Guy Fawkes commited suicide. Bonfire Night (November 5th) was a public holiday until the late 1800s. One popular tradition is burning effigies or 'guys' on a - surprise, surprise - bonfire. The word 'guy' first entered the English language with this meaning, but then went on to mean any male person. And all because of Guy.
Was guy Fawkes set up?
yes Guy Fawkes was set up, as there was letters and messages being sent to the lord telling him that there was a plot to blow up the parlment but the letter was not approached or read after the arrival of the letter. Also why would guy fawkes be able to smuggle gun bowder barrels into the parliment..or why was there barrles of gun powder still in the room that he had rented, surely they would of been removed as they were explosive..or where they put there on purpose.
Why was Guy Fawkes guilty of treason?
I think Guy Fawkes was innocent because: King James had a friend (Robert Ceceil) who was his secretary to him and sometimes he would lend him the key to the tower where all the gun powder was stored. And it was locked all the time, so Guy Fawkes couldn't have got in because he was catholic and at this point no one liked Catholics because the king was protestant, also Ceceil hated catholic very much and wanted rid of them so this would be the perfect plan. As well people would notice if there were 36 massive barrels in the palace.
Why did Robert Cecil help Guy Fawkes with the gunpowder plot?
There are numerous theories by different contributors detailed below: Robert Cecil framed Guy Fawkes (some people believe). All gunpowder was controlled by the government and kept in the tower of London so they must have got permission off the king to buy it, that was very hard. also the cellar was owned by the government and became available with enough time to prepare. Cecil must have planned this. The plot was set up by the government so they had a reason to punish some catholics. It took 8 days of torture after he was captured for Fawkes to reveal the other plotters names, but the plotters were captured at Holbeach house only TWO days after Fawkes was captured. Cecil was part of the plot as he rented the cellar for the plotters, was in charge of the paper work for supplies of gun powder, and the records of that year went missing. He knew where the plotters were taking refuge and captured them early. The only one who wasn't captured that day was Francis Tresham. But he was taken in later, but died suddenly in his cellar at the tower of London before he was questioned. Who had access to the tower of London? Cecil did. Who was the framer? Cecil. Who definitely didn't want to get found out by the king that he was part of a plot that planned to blow his Highness up? Cecil. He obviously killed Tresham before the guy could spill the beans. Cecil did the same to his friend he rented the cellar off, Thomas Whynniard. Whynniard died suddenly on the morning the plot was supposed to take place. Another fact is that When Fawkes was down in the cellar, two guards came down and asked for his name, Fawkes said his name was John Johnson, and wasn't arrested... who cares what his name is! the guards didn't know they were looking for a dude named Guy Fawkes, didn't they spot the 36 barrels of gunpowder behind him? Or were they just sent down there to make sure every thing was set up?
How did Guy Fawkes gt involved in the gunpowder plot?
Guy Fawkes was a Catholic explosives expert and could set off gunpowder without being killed
How did the gunpowder plot start?
Basically,, In 1605 Guy Fawkes set up a huge plot with many other people (go on www.guyfawkesplot.co.uk/peopleintheplan to find out who) and they set up a fire. Guy Fawkes WAS the leader unlike what people say about his team mate. Guy Fawkes wasn't actually called Guy Fawkes. His real name was Gary Hawkes but they called him Guy Fawkes because of 'TheGreatSignature'. The Great Signature was a piece of paper which was signed by Fawkes but got torn. It said... G y awkes. So people made his name Guy Fawkes. This was in 1601. Guy Fawkes set up the plot. Does this help? Hope so... :)

What is bonfire night celebrating?
On November 5th 1605, Guido (Guy) Fawkes tried, with several other conspirators, to blow up Parliament in London. He had managed to secrete barrels of gunpowder in the cellars of Parliament but was discovered before they could be detonated. He was taken to the Tower of London and tortured until he revealed the names of his fellow conspirators. He was then hanged. This became known as the Gunpowder Plot. On November 5th each year, bonfires are lit throughout the UK and an effigy of Guy Fawkes is burned on the fire and fireworks are set off. This annual event is known as Bonfire night or Guy Fawkes night and is celebrating the fact that the King and Parliament survived the plot, although in reality, most people have forgotten the real reason and (children in particular) just enjoy the festivities. Look up Guy Fawkes on Wikipedia for the full story.
What do British people do once a year?
Almost the only annual event which is unique to Britain is Guy Fawkes night (or Bonfire night). This event commemorates the discovery of the Gunpowder Plot - an attempt by Guy Fawkes and other conspirators to blow up the Houses of Parliament on 5 November 1605. Traditionally, a pyre of branches is built and a "Guy" (a straw dummy dressed in Jacobean style clothing) is placed on top. The pyre is lit and fireworks are set off.
