Default the moon

There's always been this school of thought out there that says we never landed on the moon. I guess we don't hear it much, but the proponents of this belief have strong arguments it seems.

What do you guys think?

We know it's true because Neil Armstrong returned with a wedge of green cheese.

Although I agree that the moon landing was real I find that there is some amazingly compelling evidence of a fraud. The only two examples i find worth mentioning. Is the waving of the flag on the moon. (no atmosphere=no air=no wind). And there are no stars in any of the shots taken on the moon. (there is no atmosphere thus there should be millions seen).

I agree, as does the Flat Earth Society. Columbus, Magellan, and Ponce de Leon were frauds. Also, every every flight and ship sailing to Asia, Europe, Africa, Australia, Antartica, and the western Pacific in history was a fraud, as are the International Space Station, the Space Shuttle, and the Hubble Space Telescope. Ther're all frauds -- the earth is flat!

Also the Mars Rovers, Spirit and Opportunity, as well as World Wars I and II, the Korean, Vietnam, Gulf, Afghanistan, and Iraq Wars, and the Eiffel Tower.
