Exactly. You'd have to believe that a group of people could be so evil that they'd turn their backs on their nation and murder their own people, yet so completely trustworthy and loving of their fellow man that they'd never blow their secret...

Thank goodness all the new posts in here are just pointing out how a moon landing conspiracy is ridiculous. I thought we were going to have to tear down all the convoluted 'arguments' of a massive conspiracy. Not that it's difficult to shred apart, but this conspiracy theory is just one of those things that absolutely bewilders me that otherwise intelligent people can believe.

Actually it originated as propaganda “when the race to the moon” took the press away from the alleged anti-war movement. (Alleged meaning these movements are only focused toward America instead of Aggressors.)
