    So did they build the sun too? And the stars? Just went up there and stapled them all to the firmament themselves? That's a pretty impressive feat, considering how many there are. Go NASA!

    Ok, my heart is broken.

    To elaborate. There is no enlightened conversation to have in regards to things WE KNOW having not happened. There is no conversation to be had with a flat earther, because they believe something that goes against what we know, thanks to science.

    Likewise, there is not good conversation to be had with some one who jams their fingers in their ears and goes off on how the moon landing is fake. Science and facts disprove them, they choose to ignore that.

    Its stupid and ignorant, if you count yourself among them, you are also stupid and ignorant.

    You can theoretically have a meaningful conversation with a flat-earther, if their theory makes sense and explains our observations - it is unlikely to happen, but it is possible. However, when all they have to say to refute the evidence we have is, "It is all photoshopped and made up as a part of the world scientific conspiracy" - then yes, there isn't much to talk about.

    I've yet to hear a good theory explaining how moon landing could be fake without resorting to the typical, "It was all shot in Hollywood", and weird pseudo-scientific arguments like, "Cameras they were using would have melted by the Sun". I mean, even Soviet scientists confirmed moon landing at the time, and they would have benefited the most by revealing a horrible conspiracy by the American government - and, clearly, they had all the means to do so, since they were the only other space faring nation at the time.

    What about it? I asked you how you deduced that over 10,000 photos are fake and you counter it by asking me to look at them and take the timing into account? That's it? What about the burden of proof being at the one who's making the extraordinary claim?

    Well, seeing how the movement of people believing world is flat IS indeed gaining support, well, I can see how people won't believe moon landing happened.

    [sar]Oh, come on!

    Theres been 17,140 days since the moon landing, that means they'd only need to make a single photo every day or so, wake up sheeple![/sar]

    Cool pictures!

    Yeah, especially considering that Photoshop is 18 years old.

    They neither could nor did. The manned Moon mission is impossible with current technology, and it was impossible back in '70s.

    Dude, this:

    - is thousand times as complicated as the Moon landing missions. Unless you believe that this also was shot in Hollywood (which wouldn't surprise me ), your point is moot.

    Except millions upon millions of people have actual experience in what they claim in religion.

    It's always fascinating when people make a claim like this based off of no credibility. Ignoring this though, no, religion is not a conspiracy theory. By the smallest definition it is, but so is just about any organization in history. If we are to base it off of a conspiracy theory by trying to state that is contradicts your opinions or worldly views, that is still false. Considering religion has a major hold on the planet and was influential among the masses long before lets say science, your opinions would be in direct conflict with the majority view, making them the conspiracy theory. Fact of the matter is, your analogy holds no water. You also don't have any scientific research to support said opinion, so you can't even use that to state it is in complete contradiction of scientific view. And no, being religious does not mean you automatically assume things like the world is flat.

It's not a claim that religion is a conspiracy theory. It's a claim that some aspect of religion, in this case the mechanism and resilience of belief, is readily comparable to a similar aspect of another thing. Religious beliefs are inherently faith based and the faithful will jump through any hoop necessary to preserve their beliefs, even when there are direct conflict with available facts (eg YEC). The influence and popularity of religion is absolutely irrelevant to this analogy, and you're doing little more than making a particularly weak appeal to popularity in mentioning it.
    I understand how analogies work. Yours doesn't. You are also assuming (once again) that all religions are fundamentally the same, when they aren't. The popularity is relevant when the basis of many peoples ideas of conspiracy theory is that it is objective to not just their views, but a majority held view. For example, go look up how many conspiracy theories exist that actually have a following that holds strongly for that to be the truth over the people who view otherwise. You won't find any. Again, there is no available facts for you to prove all religion false.

    There is no evidence or available facts to prove all religion is true. See what I did there.
