it's all too confusing

Conspiracy theories.  They’re all around us.

Aren’t they…..

I mean, I watched a video on YouTube last week explaining that the moon landings were a hoax; filmed in a studio somewhere in London.  All the evidence was presented, including how it was impossible for the astronauts to have survived a journey through the Earth’s Van Allen belts.  These belts are as a direct consequence of our planet having a magnetic field – present because our earth has an iron core and rotates.

I was surprised then to follow up that video with one explaining that the earth is flat, not round with its iron core and instead of rotating through space, is in fact the centre of the universe with everything revolving around it.  

Erm, sorry, but how does it have a magnetic field then?

And, and, and, if we didn’t go to the moon, how come there is hard evidence that we saw alien moon bases there and were threatened by their inhabitants, so we didn’t return after Apollo 17.  Or we did return but the resultant outcome and footage from Apollo 18 was too scary for us to see.

It’s no wonder I’m confused.

I mean, is the earth round, flat, with or without a magnetic field that would have prevented us going to the moon so we couldn’t see the aliens up there on and beneath its surface when we did?

I dunno.  Next they’ll be expecting us to believe that Paul McCartney is really dead.  Or flat.

looks round to me Ringo...
