    You'd think that arguably one of the top 5 events of the 20th century would've been kept separate from everything else, and not re-used.

    People who believed we went to the moon should be embarrassed for themselves.

    People who reject the obvious and irrefutable evidence of the moon landing being fake are vanilla flavored sheeple who will believe anything people tell them. It's people like them that carried out the Holocaust because they don't have brains, but rather automatic switching stations designed to service whichever master is currently in power.

    I, on the other hand, collect comic books, have a level 40 wizard character in WOW, and have an IQ of 157 (verified by an online IQ test). I am far above the zombie like behavior of the sheeple and can ACTUALLY THINK FOR MYSELF. I pity the people who believe the official story. I call them "coincidence nuts".

    Here are a couple of questions for the coincidence nuts:

    1. Why was the flag fluttering in a windless environment?

    2. WHY WERE THERE SHADOWS on the moon? Obviously there was no sun, so how could there be shadows?

    3. Neil Armstrong was the first man on the moon, yet someone else was able to take his picture? Ooops!

    4. Do you think IN SPACE there might be STARS? Yes? Oh wait.....nope. According to the videos in questions stars don't exist in outer space. Laughable.

    5. Neil Armstrong actually admitted to a reported the whole thing was faked, then retracted his story. Why? Because someone got to him, and because the government is controlling all electronic communications (that's why google has no record of it).

    Why don't you sheeple address the arguments?

    There was a very special episode of I Dream of Jeannie on that night that they needed the tape for.

    US flags always flutter, they don't need wind. Why do you hate the United States?

    I don't remember what show it was (might have been mythbusters), but in a vacuum, a flag will move. Momentum doesn't need gravity.
    There's no sun out there?

    magic.
    I don't remember the reason, but I think it was something how it's the same reason why we don't see stars during the day.

    I love posts that make unsure if someone is being sarcastic or not.

    The astronauts took pictures of brightly lit, shiny white objects. In these conditions, cameras need a fast exposure time and small aperture, making it impossible to capture faint background objects. Guardian photographer Graeme Robertson says: "They would have used a really fast shutter speed so everything in the background would just be black."

    I know you're kidding, but these two still strike me as amusing in combination. There are obviously stars, but obviously no sun.

    I did a video on the moon landing for my freshman US History class back in high school. I think it might still be bouncing around our home network somewhere. It has moon landing footage in it. NASA can buy the video from me.

    I think the footage I was asking about was simulated by CBS.

    There are too many examples that would prove your statement categorically wrong that I won't even get into it. One does not need to be somewhere for it to have happened. Next you'll tell me the holocaust didn't happen, I mean I wasn't there, how the fuck would I know?

    Have fun being a complete moron.

    I would rather you did get into it. It would make it much more fun for me.

    I would like just one example that proves the moon landing to be real beyond any doubt, just one.

    I believe that the holocaust happened but don't understand the idea that people are insane or stupid or that it should be illegal to think that it didn't.

    I watched an X Men movie a year or two ago where the old guy playing Magneto crushed cars with his powers from a distance. Looked pretty damned real to me. Guess that happened too. :crazy:

    Well, I guess I shouldn't have said the old guy playing Magneto as he really looked like Magneto and said he was in the movie so I should just call him Magneto.


    I will mix a metaphor and ask this. If a tree falls in the woods and there is nobody there to see it or here it did it really happen?

    And...if I go see the tree laying on the ground does that PROVE that it fell?

    Well I can see the type of person I'm dealing with... Jesus, dude. Anyone who doesn't think the holocaust happened are insane or stupid or both, and if you can't understand why on your own, then I'm certaintly not going to waste my time explaining it to you. And then to use a Hollywood superhero movie as an example is just... :crazy:

    I did a thesis on the moon landing in college, researched it an entire semester. I know with certainty and I don't have the time or inclination to debate it over the internet with someone who just wrote what you did.

    I'm out.
