I found out something about my fiance and her family and I don't know what to do...

[Zatoichi.uK]

Poo on the moon?

 

[jimjamuk]

or poo through your own letterbox

leave evidence on the floor then insist it never happened.... insist on a conspiracy if anyone mentions it

I had this discussion with someone at the pub once, I literally went on my phone and got the pictures China took of the moon landing spot showing the flag and the Moon buggy still there

This is amazing.

To be honest you just have to give up on these people who think the moon landing was faked, i have talked red in the face to people who will just not give up, even with all the evidence we have that it's all happened they just won't back down, they are just screwballs.

 

[Malt_Vinegar]

Was she siding with her Mother to avoid causing a scene, or does she actually believe they might have been faked?

 

[OracIe]

I'm shocked you posted this, does it really matter that much to you? People will believe what they want, regardless of 'proof' or what other people think.

Drop it and move on...

 

[Lima]

People believe in conspiracy theories oh noooooooo.....

People believe in certain religions oh noooooooooo.......

OP, let people have their own opinion and stop being so ignorant and dismissive to anything you don't agree with. This thread is far more stupid than your perhaps soon to be wife and in laws opinions.

Edit- now realise OP was joking around a bit with this thread so my above comment is a tad harsh...

 

[d_brennen]

We're all skirting around the important issue here

Is she hot? We need pics in order to help

One look at my Saturn V lead to an instant conversion and they will be begging for more.

It's meant to be a light-hearted and amusing thread, take your black cloud and vamoosh!

 

[Mr Badger]

UPDATE: I just told my work colleagues about this and to my shock and horror, they too have their doubts.

I'm surrounded by idiots!

To be fair most of OcUK isn't convinced that you have a fiancé either...

 

[Casdawer]

I think she was genuine.

Joking aside, it's not that much of a big deal, I was just shocked that I never knew before today! What other secrets is she hiding!

My fiancé is Catholic too but no where near like her Mother is! The woman won't do anything because she believes that God is guiding her and he will tell her what to do with her life

 

[gradyhawks]

It's worth noting that the soon to be Mother-In-Law is Catholic so most likely still believes the Earth is flat... I haven't the courage to ask her.

I'm not even sure a devoute catholic could beleive that ... since it was never even argued that the world was ever flat, by catholics, greeks or anyone for that matter.

The myth of the flat Earth is the modern misconception that the prevailing cosmological view during the Middle Ages in Europe saw the Earth as flat, instead of spherical.[1]

During the early Middle Ages, virtually all scholars maintained the spherical viewpoint first expressed by the Ancient Greeks. From at least the 14th century, belief in a flat Earth among the educated was almost nonexistent, despite fanciful depictions in art, such as the exterior of Hieronymus Bosch's famous triptych The Garden of Earthly Delights, in which a disc-shaped Earth is shown floating inside a transparent sphere.[2]

Call the wedding off mate, they are morons. I think if some thick tit said that kind of stuff to me, mother/father in-law or not, I'd HAVE to break their nose.

Show them the Stephen Fry interview when he answer the question of what he would ask God.

 

[RoyMi6]

Haha, this is classic, my other half doesn't believe in the moon landing either!

Luckily she loves me even with my flaws so I'm happy to put up with hers

Also, "fine her £5" - amazing callback!

I'm sure I posted a picture in the GF thread a few years back... Feel free to go and find it

 

[Schlong&Stable]

The fact we haven't been back to the moon is probably why some people doubt we ever went there. Plus, it was a pretty heroic feat in the first place.

I am always disappointed by how little investment the world has made in space exploration. Ah well, maybe by the time I'm sixty we'll be a bit further forward.

 

[Terminal_Boy]

You have no idea how many times I have to bite my tongue when she starts spouting God nonsense.

Do they believe that the fossil record is faked too?

 

[Schlong&Stable]

Show them the Stephen Fry interview when he answer the question of what he would ask God.

Nothing Fry said disproves God or even the Christian view of God. He sometimes says interesting things, but in that case I just thought 'What a plonker'.

 

[Vulcan]

Get over it and move on; you can't reason with stupid.

But you can choose to not procreate with them.

People believe in conspiracy theories oh noooooooo.....

People believe in certain religions oh noooooooooo.......

The irony.
