Landing on the moon is great and all

...but I would be more impressed with the hope in the potential of humans if I saw a person who knew love...who can be patient, a fighter at the moments of holding on to truth, and one who can live a life of forgiveness. I'd find hope in the way we treat each other, not in our "conquerings" of places and status.

This is a quote from a CNN article online about the idea of a moon hoax growing with the younger generation.

Stuart Robbins, a Ph.D. candidate in astrophysics at the University of Colorado who gives lectures defending NASA from Apollo hoax theorists, believes their influence can be harmful.

"If people don't think we were able to go to the moon, then they don't believe in the ingenuity of human achievement," he said. "Going to the moon and returning astronauts safely back to Earth is arguably one of the most profound achievements in human history, and so when people simply believe it was a hoax, they lose out on that shared experience and doubt what humans can do."
