Yep.
Those Rhodes Scholarship finalists are all a bunch of dumbasses.
McElroy was a Rhodes finalist off the strength of being a top athlete plus a very good GPA at Alabama's business school. In terms of raw brain power, he's not at the level of your average Georgia Tech engineering major. But his overall package is undoubtedly enough to interview for a Rhodes because they love the scholar-athlete package.
So to say that he can't be dumb about this moon landing thing because he interviewed for the Rhodes is a pretty idiotic take. You do not have to be a genius to get a 3.85 at Alabama in any major much less a business major.

But educated in Alabama. I'd say that's a more relevant data point.

You've seen the flu and pneumonia have hospitals filled to capacity in your lifetime. Do tell.
every other virus? Study viruses my friend.
There are some that have extremely low survival rates.
Also, pneumonia and the flu are different things. A bad flu can make you develop pneumonia. They are not the same thing though.

Dumbest shite I've seen today. Its Pneumonia. A man made (us, we paid for it) Pneumonia. Also known as the Flu.
We do know the full effects. It, like every other virus, either tones its arse down as to spread ... or it goes full Spanish Flu and burns itself out.
The fact is ... people keep pretending we DON'T know exactly how this works. Pretending we don't know how basic virology works. Like we all somehow forgot everything from Currie on.
bullshite.

What an incredibly stupid comment. Just because a bunch of morons don't understand physics, orbital mechanics or general science for that matter, doesn't add to the validity of McElroy's comments or the general premise that we didn't go to the moon.
Do they believe that we weren't splitting open chests and doing bypass surgery in the 60s? Do they believe the transistor wasn't invented in the 40's? Science deniers are plentiful because stupidity, ignorance and disinformation cannot be put in a box and buried.

Are you one of those? Just because a majority of people do not think something has happened does not mean something has not happened. Facts are not dependent upon a majority believing them.

We have seen how the government will straight lie to people on a global scale. We saw the two unmanned attempts to land on the moon earlier this year both fail - despite being exponentially more technically advanced than we were in 1969. No one has actually been able to see any of the discarded lunar landers from the Apollo program with a telescope, despite the fact we now have telescopes 100x more sensitive and advanced than the Hubble Space Telescope. We can see over 13 billion light years away. But we can’t see any of the junk we left on the moon.
Strange.
So you don't believe we landed on the moon?

It was a completely true statement. More and more people question aspects of the lunar landings, especially the actual video.
The Buzz Aldrin interview with Conan O’Brien certainly contributed to that.
quote:
At the 1:29 mark, O’Brien says: “Let’s talk about this because this is fascinating. I remember very clearly; I think anybody who was alive at the time does. I remember my parents waking me up and we went down, and we watched you guys land on the moon.”
Aldrin responds: “No, you didn’t. Because there wasn’t any television, there wasn’t anybody taking the picture. You watched animation so you associated what you saw with… you heard me talking about, you know, how many feet we’re going to the left and right and then I said contact light, engine stopped, a few other things and then Neil said ‘Houston, tranquility base. The Eagle has landed.’ How about that? Not a bad line.”
But what would Buzz Aldrin know about it.

Hell yeah! Tell ‘em! We may have landed but it wasn’t broadcast. What was broadcast was definitely filmed by Kubrick in a Hollywood Basement

I 1000% percent believe we landed on the moon. As I said earlier in this thread there is space junk scattered all over the moon that the US, Russia and China left there.
I have questions about whether we actually were able to walk on the moon and then safely make it back to Earth. And I certainly don’t believe every photo and piece of video presented is 100% legitimate.

This thread has been eye opening. What specifically is retarded in what you quoted?

To fake Apollo convincingly, the U.S. would have had to fabricate not just TV footage but launches, tracking data, radio communications, telemetry, recovery operations, and the physical lunar samples distributed to scientists worldwide.
The Soviet Union, which had every incentive to expose a fraud, never did. Thousands of engineers, contractors, astronomers, and foreign observers would have needed either to participate or be fooled in ways that still hold up decades later.
The photographic “anomalies” also have ordinary explanations: the flag moved because it had a horizontal rod and was twisted when planted, stars are absent because camera exposure was set for the bright lunar surface, and nonparallel shadows happen naturally on uneven terrain with wide-angle lenses and perspective.
Most importantly, the conspiracy required to sustain a fake at that scale is vastly less likely than the straightforward explanation that Apollo happened as documented.

But....why? If we could put a rocket on the moon, people would only be added weight. I mean the infrastructure would be in place as far as oxygen, food, waste etc unless you doubt we sent people into space. So, sending people on the moon would just be a matter of extra weight. As for walking...NASA could easily replicate conditions on the moon. It just seems naive to think we could send a rocket to do a soft landing yet not be able to put people in the rocket for a landing.

Because unlike landing on the moon and leaving a lander or probe there as is done with unmanned ones, we had to take off from the moon and navigate back to earth safely.
Yet we have had many issues taking off from Earth. The Apollo launch pad accident, the Challenger disaster, multiple launch scrubs for technical issues. That is despite the fact that they have the ability to test things in Earth’s atmosphere. And we have launch facilities. And thousands of on hand ground support. Still, with all that we struggled. Yet we were successfully able to take off from the moon and return to Earth safely with none of that six out of six tries.
I am not saying it did not happen. But I don’t believe with absolute certainty it did like many of you. I am simply a skeptic.
The desire to beat me into submission in this thread is strange.
