I really don't think I need to explain it further than that.
This whole topic of discussion is based on "did", not "why".

All of that was adressed to Bungolow who insist I flat out denied the Lunar Landing. I don't ever recall ever flat out denying landed on the moon, at least in this thread. All I did was raise the question about the Lunar Landing. Please understand that Bungie asked if I question other of historical facts found in text books - and I don't. To
his question, I wanted him to understand that history is more than "yes" and "no" to an event, but what does that event means to people, what it means metaphysically. (reread what I wrote, and you'll see I didn't equate "did" and "why")
IF this thread ends up exploring "Why we went to the Moon." and it's done by other posters then I see nothing wrong with it. Someone was trying to spam it with lost socks. I never thought of at the time when I started this thread of adding "why" we went to the moon, maybe because I was in shock of discovering we did go to the moon. But I think in hindsight it would of made a more dynamic thread, you know, to explore why we went to the moon. But hey, no thread ends up the way it started anyway.

Well when I say I'm pleading the 5th, it means I don't want to incriminate myself by revealing my opinion, I'm not insisting my opinion on anyone, and I'm not trying to favor one side or the other. I'm just an unbias observer perusing whatever anyone writes.
