The Shuttle can't go outside orbit because it's rocket boosters aren't big enough to get it there. The Apollo rocket was more than double the size.
What do you mean they never went back? They sent 7 Apollo moonshots, 6 of which made it. 12 men have walked on the moon from 6 successful missions. Apollo 13 never made it. They learned as much as they needed to and cancelled the last two Apollo shots because of the costs of the Vietnam war. We haven't gone back because we beat the Russians there - the main reason why we went. Also, there's nothing there. Mankind will go back. China will be the next country to land men and/or women on the moon. What you've read, GTFPV, is obviously crap. Beware of the truth. It's hidden out there in books and on the internet.

I wasn't referring to you gtfpv, I was referring to conspiracy theorists in general. Sorry if you took it personally.

The acts performed by Jesus were documented well after his death by people that weren't there. Some of them hundreds of years after his death. All we have on these stories is the power to sift through what may be truth and what may be inserted to provide a 'good story'. You seem to work on the basis that anything written in a book describing an event more than say, a generation in the past must be true or at the least, cannot be disproven? |

There's no science that tells us it's impossible for man to walk on the Moon. Man has achieved it. NASA has submitted proposals for manned missions to Mars. Would be a monumental waste of their time and resources if we're trapped by Van Allen and his pesky belt. |

It costs tens of billions of dollars to shoot men to the Moon, what purpose would it serve them today? NASA has submitted a proposal at a Mars manned mission, though. China have declared interest on putting a man on the Moon. I suspect probably for the same reason the US did it, to flex their might. I recall India also had an interest in it but not sure if their intentions were as strong as that of China's. |

The calder on my wall only goes to the end of 2011, not to 2911. The Calender on Windows 7 only goes to 2099, does that mean the end of the world will happen 2099 because the Microsoft Calender has predicted so? |

I think it has been proven beyond a doubt that man went to the moon. The Americans did lose the space race however.

The first man made object in space was not Sputnik, it was a steel and concrete plug used to fill in the hole in an early underground nuclear test that got ejected during detonation and is STILL travelling....... |

Ahh but the original gentlemens agreement for the space race was to complete 1 full orbit of the earth with a man. Russia beat them to it. That is when they changed the rules to being the first on the moon. |

I recall watching a special a few weeks ago on TV about all the big natural disasters of late. They had all the people with the tin foil hats on talking about how to survive and bunker down.
Seriously if it were the end of the world which I doubt whats the point in worrying yourself over it. You can't do anything to stop it and would you really want to survive if at all possible. Just live your life! |

This thread should be retitled 'Blame everything on Christianity Thread'. Should have been closed as soon as the bashing started imo....

You never hear anyone slag off islam or judaism?? Its because christianity is a soft target. Gutless IMO. Just like the spineless fools putting on an offensive concert on good friday!
Was it not prophesised that christianity is to be persecuted in the end days??? Before the terrible judge comes down from above

It's a disgrace, respect is a rare commodity these days.
And yes it was written Christianity would be prosecuted near the end of days, natural disasters, wars, Islam wide spreading. Most of the signs are there (search for green horse on youtube) but some have not yet happened, so unless some dramatic things happen in the next 18 months, the whole 2012 world end thing is rubbish. |

Sorry I haven't read the pages of this thread, just the 1st page and a bit...
Just tell me.. has thread covered 9/11...? whether it was an inside job..? NWO? etc etc...? End of the world in 2012? I was interested in how it started off, but not so interested in how I think it's turned out.. ;) |

I was reading about this, turns out he thought it was meant to be in 1994, however, when the day came and went, turns out he maade some 'mathematical errors'.
