You don't get to gatekeep the boundaries of the argument or what evidence is allowed. You don't get to eliminate sources of evidence just because they are inconvenient to your argument.
Of course i can decide not to debate Rabinoz about the flatearth when he cherry picks ancient invalid globe models over ancient invalid models of a flatearth with no real scientific proof to back up his claims.
It's hilarious that the Greeks seem to meet Rabinoz scientific criterea for a globe earth, while in the meantime flatearthers have to come up with far more accurate and up to date proof for their flatearth model than the Greeks ever did !!
I only ask for a level playingfield, but that seems very hard for globe earth believers who rely on many, many proofs that cannot stand the scientific method !!!
CGI from outerspace can be dismissed as proof for a globe earth, because no one realy knows what data and techniques were used. All we know is some cripted NASA data and a CGI end result about how the globe was ''photographed''. Not nearly enough to convince even the most enthusiastic space fan about authenticphotographic material of the globe from outerspace.
Precise repeatable atmospheric math and testing instead of unguided jargon like, looming, lensing, superior mirage that is inserted in a very unscientific way when observation does not fit the prefered globe model.
If you're going to cherrypick hyperbole from an astronaut, let's look at what he said. Regardless of the completely untrue argument that all the data have been destroyed and no blueprints exist thanks to those evil bad guys at NASA here's what he said:
"We don't have the technology any more".
Any more.
Forgetting the best part....
it's a painfull process to built it back again
What could be so painfull ?
What could be so difficult ?
What could be so technically advanced ?
What could be so time consuming ?
You are cherry picking, because you have to deal with a NASA ''spokesman'' that destroys most of NASA's claims that ''finances'' are the only real problem to go back to the moon.
It is presented here, as on youtube comments, in the Clavius forums........money is the most important reason we can't rebuilt a moon rocket/mission.
I have heard it so many times that i almost believed it....
Luckily Don Petitt says it's a painfull process to built it back again...painfull , because you don't know how to reanimate a second Apollo program due to destroyed technology.
Yep...that is exactly what Don Petitt says !
So they had it when they went to the moon. You're effectively arguing that they didn't go to the moon because they went to the moon.
Why not see if you can find a statement anywhere from Pettit that says "We didn't go to the moon at all". In the interview you cherrypick he actually says "we should go back to the moon."
Back.
If you think he's speaking the truth, then you have to accept that we went.
What logic is that sir ?
I don't believe anything that Disney space institute claims, you fanboys however have claimed there are no cover-ups, no secret agenda's to fool the masses, no deliberate use of the shredder to remove Apollo data, no inconsistancies between astronauts testimonies, everything else apart from some Apollo 11 data was captured, archived and scientifically known in every possible detail.
Don Petitt's claims are 100% proof that there should be an investigation asap to make an inventory what exactly was destroyed and what we still have/know today., because NASA wants our money for a trip to mars. But if it destroyed technology that would defenitly decrease the costs NOW, then we should have the right to know what is going on and who is responsible for such neglect and destruction of valuable sources.Probably Don will make a public statement that he was taken out of context, just as when the Orion spokesman claimed that NASA did not know how to safely guide humans through the VAB yet, and Armstrong's early seventies interview where he claimed it was deep black in cislunar space to the contrary of Ed Mitchell's ''bright stars'' claims etc....
You make it yourselves damn easy this way...ignore facts, ignore facts, ignore facts, ignore facts and repeat the propaganda, repeat the propaganda, repeat the propaganda.
I have to spend way to much time to point out the implications of what Don Petitt claimed, but it is like hitting a brick wall time and time and time again.
Try coming up with some actual evidence that the blueprints to build the Apollo hardware have been destroyed, or that wasn't capable of doing the job for which it was designed, or that the calculations of the ancient Greeks are incorrect.
Maybe give this a read:

you could learn something.
Again i am only pointing out enormous inconsistancies among the NASA camp and their own take on the archived and known Apollo leftovers
I cannot explain anything when i do not to know wich explainations is more true, because.....
I have never ever heard such alarming and conflicting invented aftermath when i simply matched together Explaination A and B explaining things about the same timeframe and event.
It's insane to think how much credit NASA has....i can't believe it....i really can't.
