Sure I can. I can also tell the truth. For example; Black people are more likely than Whites to commit violent crime, end up in jail, and/or be executed. Again, I am not making any of these statistics up. The question is not what they indicate about Black people, it's what they indicate about Black people's place in American culture. However, this is not relevant to a)what any given black person's opinion is on something, and b)whether that opinion is correct.

A counter balance of thought.
Using agism, sexism, racism, nationalism, etc, as a negative association.
So the typical middle class anglo american in the 60's would not want to be associated with an 80 year old, a negro, a communist, redneck, or any group burdened by stereotypes, who disbelieve the claims that NASA landed men on the moon. A classic tactic used to disrupt people from asking questions.
Im surprised you fell for it. But why would I? We all fall for these kinds of tricks one way or another. So as you say, your first thought was not about a wise old woman who after living full life could see easier than young impressionable persons that her government was lying to her... life lessons learned and all that. No, you instead focused on:
Old people are more prone than the general population to going senile, Alzheimer's, and other mental problems. This is not some sort of slur; this is scientific fact.
So, you could have come up with some stereotype for black people as well, and claim it as fact... right?
And I didn't.
Maybe you might have said something like,
No it's not. You are making two very large mistakes here;
"Well, lets be honest, blacks in 1960's America had less access to the same quality of education as whites. Therefore, they might not as a whole understand the scientific principles and proofs associated with the manned Moon landing" I mean, thats not racism, thats just stating fact, right?
Straw man.

No, he's trying to get somewhere from a point SJ bought up. Whether it's correct or not is another matter, but it is relevant, since SJ bought it up in the first place.SJ is desperately trying to change the subject, using your and his favorite methods of spamming stuff that is relevant to the topic, but not what was being discussed.

DJ your going way off topic.
You are derailing the conversation and collecting stars for it.
Arguably, yes. But farming, which is where most food comes from, is by definition unnatural. Watch Mike Rowe stick a gloved hand up a horse's rear to stimulate it's prostate in order to get it's semen, and tell me that's natural. (I may be remembering the details wrong.)
Killing animals for sustenance is natural.
SJ, you just implied that DJ was making the argument personal because he was losing. In doing so, you made the argument personal. By your own claim, you are losing.

Wow, and I got my post deleted because I had a video of a high ranking officer stating that no man could fly past the VABs. But its fine for DJ to discuss the pros and cons of eating meat in a moon hoax thread.
Hey, FoosM, SJ's discussing meat. Better call him out like you did DJ.

1. It doesn't matter who or how many people believe in something if it is wrong.
2. Blacks in the 60s did not receive the same education opportunities as whites. There was a fair amount of controversy over it, I hear. Some preacher or something got shot over it. So even your emotive rhetoric is factually incorrect.
You're trying to insinuate I'm bigot. I'm not. If my facts are false, prove it.

Why dont you retract your earlier statement if you cant back it up.
The Tonight Show is not the same as a NASA post flight press conference.
But I understand that you see it all as TV PROGRAMMING.
Very well, I'll e-mail NASA myself. Please don't project your inability to distinguish videos from reality on to me.

Today I have an important announcement. As of September 1st 2011, I am the sole copyright holder of Ralph René's "NASA Mooned America" and all four of his fiction books. His "WTC Lies & Fairy Tales" remains the copyright of Dr Stephen Rorke, whilst the copyrights to "The Last Skeptic Of Science" have gone to a physicist pursuing René's alternative science theories.
For the record, I have no interest in profiting from these books. All the money made from sales will go straight towards future experiments and productions. Also, if there is a high demand for it, I may consider doing a screenplay of René's fiction books after my current Ranma's Declaration Of Motherhood project is completed.
If you would like to make a purchase, please contact me at: [email protected]

Episode 4, Wernher von Braun in Antarctica.
PART 1
During the late 1960s, von Braun played an instrumental role in the development of the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville. The desk from which he guided America's entry in the Space Race remains on display there.
In 1966/67 antarctic summer, von Braun participated in a U.S. government expedition to Antarctica. The expedition was one of the first to systematically search the ice surface for meteorites believed to originate from the moon, for later use as a reference material.
In an internal memo dated January 16, 1969, von Braun had confirmed to his staff that he would stay on as a center director at Huntsville to head the Apollo Applications Program. A few months later, on occasion of the first moon-landing, he publicly expressed his optimism that the Saturn V carrier system would continue to be developed, advocating manned missions to Mars in the 1980s.

During the local summer of 1966–67, von Braun participated in a field trip to Antarctica, organized for him and several other members of top NASA management.[59] The goal of the field trip was to determine whether the experience gained by US scientific and technological community during the exploration of Antarctic wastelands would be useful for the manned exploration of space. Von Braun was mainly interested in management of the scientific effort on Antarctic research stations, logistics, habitation and life support, and in using the barren Antarctic terrain like the glacial dry valleys to test the equipment that one day would be used to look for signs of life on Mars and other worlds.

Apollogists can be productive in this thread by providing:
1. sourced links to videos of Apollo astronauts post-flight press conferences for missions A12-A17.
2. a compelling scientific justification for the 5 counts of animal cruelty in Biosat III experiment.
3. data which refutes Jarrah White's conclusions that Apollo moon rocks contain water & minerals showing that Apollo moon rocks are indistinguishable from terrestrial counterparts. I highly recommend that Apollogists review this series ...
New York Times reported hint by Leonid I. Dubrovin, chief of 11th U.S.S.R. Antarctic expedition, broadcast by radio from Mirny Antarc- tic station, “that the Soviet Union planned to use the Antarctic as a testing ground for manned landings on the moon.” Dubrovin had said fierce Antarctic conditions would test man’s adaptability and scientists could learn much there “that would help man to survive in the desolate conditions of the moon.” (NYT,5/1/66, 15)
