Moon Landing: Fake or Real?

Fuck you, you egocentric prick.

The majority ain't always right, in your thinking, religion is true because the majority believes it to be so lol.

The difference between religion and the moon landings is the moon landings have numbers to them. If you don't know what I mean: I mean proof. There's fucktons of proof that the moon landings weren't faked. There's a difference between skepticism and paranoia, and you, kid, are a schizophrenic little freak, aren't you?

Because nobody is proficient at using one of these:

I wonder why it's not common practice to teach the math involved in going to the moon and back? That might encourage kids to apply themselves in math, science, and engineering studies. Surely that stuff isn't a State secret. But they never go into those things in space movies either or else we would know how spacemen plot their course to planets light years away.

Huh, they do commonly teach it in every high school in this country. The math involved in a moon mission is called algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus.

The problem is it is no longer common for students to wish to learn it when schools offer to teach it in this country.

In china any high school students who refuse to learn these things gets crushed into dust in college entrance exams, and the pulverized remains of their career prospects then gets spread around like manure on farms. This is why their high school sophmores routinely outperform American university sophmores in math. This is also why I think so long as they retain social stability, they will get to the moon sooner than we will return.

Boyo, the majority of the world population agrees the moon landing happened. We're not the ones with tinfoil hats claiming the moon landing was faked, and that vaccines are a conspiracy.

I've heard Buzz Aldrin describe the trip, and toured the facilities where the lander was built. You viewed a couple of youtube videos and decided it was fake.

The majority ain't always right, in your thinking, religion is true because the majority believes it to be so lol.

When what the majority is saying is backed by loads of empirical evidence, you're a delusional denialist.

He is a petulantly ignorant delusional egoist, not denialist.

At the heart of his beef is whether his whims and the feeling of his petulant guts have been given what he considers to be due deference. Such is his infantile egoism that If the point of view so happen to be held by one called psychoslice, then in the opinion of this psychoslice, this view must be treated as if it came from someone who knows what he is talking about and can back up his views with objective evidence.

It is not about what is actually demonstrably objectively true or whether psychoslice happen to have actually managed to get it right.

I am schizophrenic, at least you got something right.

I don't care what you think I am, I have my right to believe what I want, and you are not going to take that away from me.

So it doesn't matter to you that having a mental issue in some way affects your discernment or decision making abilities and thus you might be wrong?

Here we go, putting me into a little box and labelling it.

Sad, but true. 24 years ago I graduated from high school in a class of almost 1,000; only 40 of us took calculus. The problem isn't new.

Neither of my kids have ever taken a calculus course. In fact, my son opted to study to be a diesel mechanic instead of a mechanical engineer to avoid calculus (his words, not mine). I love my son and he's doing fine, but I doubt I will ever understand his academic laziness.

I'm just wondering.

PS - no one was ever taking away your right to believe whatever fool thing you want. We were just telling you that you were wrong. You got increasingly belligerent about it.
