All the evidence that has been given can be argued easily. There's more than enough physical evidence left on the moon to prove it happened.
the moon conspiracy theorists are just idiots.
Someone from pol debate, find the thread from a couple months ago about the moon landing.

I look sed at theat sight an most of that stuff was realy streching it:

The thign about the flag not being in shadow, the reason is flags at not solid they let light though look at one yourself.

The reason no stars are visible is the same reason its harder to see stars in big cities, light polution the sun is VERY srong on the moon do to its negligible atmosphere.

The background of that picture were it fades out is do to the focus of a camera, it focuing one somthign close not somthign far waway to ovcourse far away things are goign to be blurry

You forget one important fact- humanity. Humans by nature cannot keep a secret. That is why they say "If more than one person knows a secret, it isn't."

You conspiracy crybabies are asking me to throw out everything about our government that I believe in- that they are arrogant, proud, pretentious braggarts. You are asking me to believe that thousands, if not tens of thousands, of people all know one secret that the rest of the world doesn't know. You are asking me to believe that amid all the lies and secrecy, that one human soul would not get greedy and say "Hey NASA, I spill if you don't cough up a gazillion dollars" (look at their budgets). You're asking me to believe that out of those thousands of people, that one honest soul among them does not exist. You're asking me to believe that thousands of people have kept a secret of this magnitude for so long and not ONE of them has ever sold out. After all the betrayals and traitors this country has gone through, after all the activism and political backstabbing and dirt-digging and muck-raking, that EVERY ONE of those people has toed the party line. You are asking me to believe that the country's heros of that time are liars and frauds. Neil Armstrong would kick your ass if you called him a liar. And I'd help.

That is so very atypical of government workers, that it's implausible, laughable and pathetic. Just as WAR OF THE WORLDS was entertainment, so was Capricorn One.

Get with the program. Vietnam is over, the government does not want to control your mind, the government does not control your mind. There is no closet in the Pentagon that leads to a secret laboratory filled with martians where Elvis and Jimi and Kurt rock out to old-school Duran Duran. Welcome to reality, leave your conspiracy wonks at the door.

Have a nice day.
