Wouldn't this same "logic" (very loose use of the word) apply to every moon in the solar system? Are they all spaceships? Do you apply this kind of thought process to every natural process you don't understand?

that's the thing, he's sane. our families know each other lightweight, so I've talked to him before.

it's just this one thing, the moon landing. I don't understand how that's the one thing that's he's gone FULL SHANE on..

My man!

Tards? Your (incorrect) argument will carry more weight if you refrain from talking like a third grader.

Speaking of science, let's just continue this conversation in the year 2069, when 100 years will have passed since men landed on the moon in 1969 w 60s tech developed in < 9 years and no other entity has come remotely close to repeating said feat despite their ambitions to do so.

What seems more likely? That the USA designed and developed technology circa 1969 that has yet to be replicated by any other public or private entity, or that the USA fudged the details about the Apollo program and is now caught w hand in cookie jar? Take every other facet of life from 1969 and realize that they have improved exponentially and then look at space travel and ask yourself why China is having so much trouble in 2014 doing what the USA did 45 years ago.

This reply made me lol!

gone FULL SHANE...

love it

What about the photos of the sites that we can now take?

What about the reflectors we set up there?

What about the moon rocks?

What about the LRO camera can see the flags and the lunar rover tracks?

I don't think trying to get to the moon is a high priority for other countries, the US got there first so it's a little been there done that, and not wanting to spend the money to try and achieve it.

Guess this is a slight derail lol but I have a crop circle question.

I always though they were really cool and all and wanted to beleive they were from sth more, aliens etc.

But weren't they proven to be just a hoax with people strapping wooden planks to their feet and making them or is that not accurate.

Some people admitted to making them and have showed it can be done. But that doesn't mean that all crop circles are man made or proven to be. As far as I know there have sometimes been inexplicable readings at circle sites (e.g. radiation) but I'd be more inclined to think some freaky nature incident rather than aliens tbh.

Yes, _UM, that's accurate.

Here's my order of myths/urban legends that I don't believe to be true at all but if I had to say they might be true, this is them in order of most likely to least likely:

1. Aliens exist somewhere
2. Bigfoot
3. Aliens have been here
4. Crop circles made by aliens
5. Loch Ness monster

999,655. Moon is a spacecraft

Trying to answer seriously. Our moon is harder to explain than most in the solar system due to its size and composition relative to Earth. For different reason Mars' moon Phobos is fairly odd.

Doesn't mean I think either is a spaceship but these arguments are more rooted in fact than most that these guys throw out.

Edit: Didn't know this until now but idea was actually originally proposed by Soviet scientists.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spaceship_Moon_Theory

Looks like the Soviets loved this idea as they came up with the theory for Phobos as well.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phobos_....22_hypothesis

I'd say that is definitive proof that RiverFenix is a Soviet sleeper agent.

Clearly some conspiracy theories/similar stuff are at least plausible whereas others are straight up insane. Like, I don't know what might be "fair", but "JFK was assassinated by the US government" or "9/11 was an inside job" type stuff is probably on a 1:10000 or 1:100000 type magnitude, whereas "moon is a spaceship" or "9/11 didn't happen and no one died" or whatever else Shane and River believe is in the billions to logically impossible range.

This all begs the question:

If the moon is really a spaceship...

Why the **** haven't we gone back to see what it's all about!?!?!?

Gone back? You're assuming we went the first time. Which everyone knows, we didn't.

The real question is, if the moon is just a spaceship that aliens flew here billions (thousands?) of years ago, why haven't they come back with another one after all this time? Are we really to believe they were able to do it back then but they've since lost the ability?

Yeah great hard hitting question there

All of these questions have been answered.

I think people are still in shock at the stupidity of your assertion. Once the shock wears off, you still won't get hard-hitting questions because it's ridiculous to even entertain your theory. Now it's just for lols.

I love the moon is artificial argument because it's really showing how feeble your minds are.

Its not unreasonable/improbable to think that the moon is artificial. Why then is it such a far leap to think it's of alien nature? Propose a better theory...

Lol! I have a theory: it's natural.

I think you're still hung up on the moon being artificial thing. River's asking who built it.

I'm still waiting for one piece of hard evidence that the moon is a spaceship.

So far the "proof" given is that it's hard and hollow^{[citation needed]} and coincidentally positioned for eclipses. Oh, and a bunch of scientists at some point marveled that we don't fully understand it.

This isn't about hard evidence dip**** it's about connecting dots, thinking and making assumptions. Ya know it's a fun exercise instead of just closing your mind off to anything you immediately disagree with.
