There is link somewhere in my favorites folder that I cannot find at the
moment (this folder is dire need of organizing) which offers a cite about a
creationist who would not believe a scientist about the Earth being round
rather than flat. The scientist produced a photograph showing proof of the
Earth's roundness, but the creationist replied something like this..."I can
see how such an image could decieve a person"...
Some people only accept solid, personal experience and/or observation. I
have seen enough "doctured" images in movies (Forest Gump) to know that we
can, in fact, fake our photography. I think many of the conspiracists are
also aware of this and find it rather chilling knowing how easy
entertainment can "fix" an image...what could a national government do to
convince a society that something was real when, in fact it was not?

| Could the moon landings have been faked, of course. However, I believe they happened and seriously doubt there was a conspiracy regarding the matter. We know the rockets went up and we have the first hand accounts of the astronauts who rode them. (...) (25 years ago, 8-Jul-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
