People are utterly convinced that we never landed on the moon, even with photographic evidence from third parties they're convinced

The religion of the conspiracy nut is just as palpable of the religion of the regular nut, it just comes with its on insanities

I have simply generalized my hatred from religion, conspiracy theorists, rigid politics, and and stubborn mindsets to hatred of stubborn and irrational thinking. It's dumbasses like this that remind me, no matter how ridiculous something is, SOMEONE will be gullible enough to believe it.

There was a south park joke that said that 1/4th of all Americans are retarded, and that's why they believed in conspiracy theories.
Honestly, the population hasn't done much to prove this statement false, can't go by without someone yelling conspiracy or Jesus, or my favorite, the fact that Jesus has already come back and the US government had him assassinated.

B-but JESUS solves everything!

Most of the people that it was fake have poor understanding of physics, even with genius IQs. I had a member of Menses that said it was fake because you can't see the stars, or the flag was waving and no wind. I bet they believe the magician actually made the Statute of Liberty disappear while sitting in the audience too.  :doh: :wall: :biggrin2: Solitary

Well, they did get Spielberg to fake the footage, but he's such a perfectionist that he demanded shooting on location.

But for a more reasoned approach....

I believe you meant Mensa. Only one letter different but yeah, TOTALLY different group. :wink:
Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false and by the rulers as useful

If you take a picture of a football game played at night you won't get stars in your photo.

No, I think it were two other guys. But there were specks in the sky! Collins? didn't he stay behind in the capsule?

What pictures? Link available? The astronauts could see stars by looking away from any glare and waiting for their eyes to adjust, just like we do on Earth. But if you see anything with a high albedo you're very unlikely to see dim stars as well.

Yeah, he wanted to rest up for the long drive home. "Nothing to see out there, I'll just kick back."

9/11 was not an inside job, Oswald acted alone, crop circles are fake, there is no big foot. These guys are fucking morons.
