NASA lied to the US?

Didn't know which part of "Offtopic" to put this. Watch this on TV (the little commercials). Seemed kinda improbable until I saw some of the "evidence".

Anywhoo, take a look.

I love you for that. And if you believe we didn't go to the moon, Damascus, you're an idiot. Conspiracy theories are kinda like people with a paranoia disorder trying to rationalize their paranoia.

Edit: That first guy(the skinny one), with the 9/11 stuff, is just...fucking insane. This stolen smiley explains the feeling quite well:

Who said I don't believe we didn't go to the moon?

I LOVE it when people jump to conclusions.

I can't wait for that episode to see how they debunk what some people say.


Its really sad, but some of the people that I considered really smart actually believe these conspiracy theories.

I doubt the Mythbusters will convince many though.

I SEE NOTHING TO CAUSE SOMEONE TO BELIEVE THAT YOU BELIEVE IN CONSPIRACY THEORIES.

The people who believe this shite aren't going to be swayed by evidence or anything logical.

Penn and Teller pretty much sealed this one up.

@Fox
The bolded part is probably what you're looking at.

1) Sharing is caring. Yeah, what a ****ing joke

2) Possibly possible =/= believe

I would add more, but I feel like it's just going to become a war.

Also, that Penn and Teller thing was neat.

*EDIT*
Forget it, leave this thread alone and let it die. Nothing more to say here. Along with that, arguing over the Internet is... stupid? moronic? no use? Don't really know what to put in there. Certainly not fun.

Perhaps you need to be more clear on what the fuck you're saying.

Objectively, a faked moon landing seems like something the US might try to pull given all the other crazy shit we were up to during the cold war*. I don't know about evidence either way though.

Given that scientists are walking around with moon rocks though, I'd assume we've been to the moon at some point.


*Like trying to assassinate Castro's beard.
