Re: OT -- moon landing hoax

[Guest guest]

Hi Frantz,

Yes, the mind boggles - as does mine every time one of these ridiculous

conspiracy theories reappears (The 9/11 conspiracy is another). Unfortunately,

the fact that they defy logic of all kinds doesn't seem to bother the gullible.

Glad that you and a few others are not among them!

All the Best,

Dee

perpetrate a hoax would be tremendous. The devastating effect the exposure of a

hoax would have on the reputation of the United States would be many times more

severe than simply failing to reach the moon. It is absolutely inconceivable

that NASA would be willing to take that risk. Additionally, once the Americans

were successful in " perpetrating the hoax " , why SIX moon landings? After Apollo

11 the goal had been met, so why fake five more landings? NASA continued to send

men to the Moon long after the public had lost interest. Continuing to

perpetrate a hoax would only increase the possibility of making a mistake and

being exposed. And once again, the Soviets would have never been fooled by a

hoax. The USSR fully understood the difficulties of a Moon landing and tracked

American progress closely, yet they have always acknowledged that the Apollo

moon landings were real. Because

believing the hoax theories by what they perceive to be compelling evidence. As

for the hoax " investigators " , I suspect it is a combination of paranoia and,

perhaps more importantly, feelings of inadequacy. The hoax believers create a

delusional fantasy in which they are the heroes. Their ability to decipher the

subtle clues and uncover the hoax is seen as a demonstration of their

intellectual superiority. To the hoax believers the more complex and convoluted

the theory, the smarter they feel for having figured it all out.

Ironically, coconut oil will not help with these types of abrasions, contusions

& wounds.

Or the inflammation.
