If the U.S. government could fake the moon landing, and keep the Hollywood people involved in the production quiet for 30 years, including my blabbermouth older cousin, faking Binnie's death was nothing but [small potatoes]...

First it was the mooners in the '70s, then the birthers with Obama, and now the deathers with bin Laden. Here it seems we have a cross between a mooner and a deather.
Those are methers, right? Fortunately for them, they have rehab centers where they can get clean and sober.
The Soviets. Ergo, you are wrong about the moon landing.
Al-Qaeda. Ergo, you are wrong about Osama bin Laden.
Armstrong and Aldrin (and also the crews of Apollos 12 and 14-17) left mirrors behind, pointed at Earth. If you are so inclined, you may bounce a laser off of them.
Your Argument Is Invalid.
Wait, I'm a bit confused. Your blabbermouth older cousin was involved in faking the moon landing, but has kept quiet for 30 years? How did you figure out he was involved? I would be scared if one of my cousins just suddenly started accusing me of something like that, in fact, I would probably advise his entire family to get him some psychological help.

Yeah, if the US government could fake the moon landing, then who knows what they could pull off? I guess we'll never know, mostly because we actually went to the moon you fucking lunatic.
Except for the fact that faking the moon landing would have required collusion from The Soviet Union, China, Viet Nam, North Korea, and Cuba.
Thats 5 HOSTILE countrys watching every move the Americans make.
Somehow I doubt they would have gone along with the conspiracy.
If the US could fake the moon landing and keep the Hollywood people involved in the production quiet for 30 years, then how the hell do you know that bin Laden or Al Qaeda was ever real in the first place?
Leaving aside the question of the sheer impossibility of the task you describe, or the fact that the arguments of the moon landing deniers are based on bad science, faulty assumptions and sheer insanity, then if you already believe that several of the most important historical events of the past century were complete fakes involving tens of thousands of people, you honestly can't believe ANYTHING you see, hear or read, anything at all. Which means even the sources of information you DO place your trust in are equally suspect--if you already know that the government is THAT powerful, how can you be sure that you haven't been taken in by a psy-op specifically designed to corral dissidents into useful or harmless alleys?
If we can't even agree that the reality we live in is real, there's no conceivable basis for rational discussion or dialogue. So I am perfectly justified for dismissing you as a batshit crazy crank on that basis alone.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
