You need to be on the moon to believe it then?
It came from the far reaches of your ass, maybe, but definitely not your mind.
Not what I said, I simply asked how you'd verify. And why do you care?
How would you verify, since you're the one that doesn't believe the facts right in front of your nose?
I care because to deny something like the moon landing is to deny the blood, sweat, and tears that went into it, it's one of humanity's greatest achievements. To deny it is to deny all science and logic. You're seriously surprised that people would get pissed off at you when you basically call all of NASA liars? Not just NASA, but also basically all astronomers?
You're even more ignorant than I thought if you can't even comprehend why people would care.
I wouldn't exactly call watching a technological medium about an event, or supposed proof of it locked away where it can't act as proof, the same as having the event right in front of my nose, neither would I say to deny the moon landing is to deny science and logic since what we're speaking of is an event, not strictly a scientific phenomenon. I do not call "astronomers" liars, I simply believe the landing did not happen, and to phrase an event (one which was more for national interest than humanity's) as if it's a measure of our value and worth like that is to look way too much into it.
