Were the Apollo Moon landings a hoax?

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

The Romans never got to the moon though.

Hey, maybe they did, and UFOs are Romans from the moon?

Ah - so the Egypians and The Romans originate from the moon! That proves Neil Armstrong was never playing golf on the moon otherwise he would have paired up with a gladiator or large headed emperor. :|

Aren't the Egyptians supposed to be from Nibiru or some sh-it?

I thought they all came from the original 12 colonies? (No doubt stopping on the moon for a nice cuppa before disembarking)

Nope, they went psyho, hijacked an oriental mythology and built an empire still reigning the bigger parts of the industrialized world to which even those who are not part of the empire tend to obey and pay tributes. :wink:

I was searching the link to the video where this plot was very neatly explained. I think it was part of the Barbarians series with Terry Jones as host. Can't find the very one right now. :|

Obviously you don't advocate there use.

Everything that humans have invented have their downsides. We live with the benefits of invention for such a short time before suffering the long term consequences.

As long as I find trees and herbs with big leaves, why should I crap into what others want to drink? :eek: :innocent:
(Seriously, the traditional german farm houses used to have a small lake near them where the sewage of the house lead. Those lakes were shallow enough to allow reed to grow. Reed digested all that came into the lake-No stench, no poluted water. All natural. All clean. Unfortunately you need a lot of room for that! Impossible in an overpoppulated world.)

Phew, took a while to convert them, but 'tis done. I can either post the result (which is dirt cheap - about 60p! - so no skin off my nose if that's your preference) or give it to you on the 4th. ;)

Looking forward to watching this myself too... :D
