Fetzer/Burton Moon Landing Debate Finale

[Matthew Lewis]

Keith, forgive me for speaking frankly, but I don't think Matthew is malicious. On the EF, at least in my somewhat less than acute memory, his posts were always factual or reasoned and understandable. I often didn't agree with his perspective, but I don't recall him ever engaging in ad homs or similar. And on more than one occasion he pulled me up on factual errors, and I had to apologize for these mistakes.

This, I think, is a good thing. An intelligent discussion requires opposing views intelligently debated. The day we all agree, is the day we give up the ghost of any possibility of advancing civilization.

I can only speak from my personal point of view, but the problem with the discussion in this thread to date was the intrusion of a sly agenda. That and the use of a device of using one poster to conceal other controlling minds behind it, something that is expressly forbidden in the DPF Rules of Engagement numbered 9, 10 & 11.

But hey, the same thing will be tried again and again and again. It's the way our world is configured.

Take care.
