Why, then, is either your alleged prior belief, or your current disbelief, worthy of any particular attention?
That is not up to me. People are free to do with information anything they want.
It is called freedom, mate 
I'm not your "mate", and you missed the point of my question. I'm not here simply to argue with you; I want you to learn something. But you don't show any understanding of the topic, and don't show any interest in alleviating your ignorance. So why should I, and other posters who have attempted to engage you, waste our time trying to help you?
And please, spare us the appeal to "freedom". You are of course free to render any opinion you want on topics you know nothing about. But you're not
entitled to have knowledgeable people take you seriously.
In my case, it's because I'm an experienced space systems engineer, with a space physics background, have worked with Apollo engineers, and have examined the record in reasonable detail.
Well. well well. I am glad you wrote this. Your cognitive dissonance will be the greater!
This explains a lot. I mean a LOT. Are you 'patriotic' too?
No, I'm afraid you can't bluff or smokescreen your way past this. I actually understand the things I'm talking about; you don't. It's up to you whether you want to change that. You can't do that by insinuating that I'm acting out of purely nationalistic reasons, when (a) many of the posters here are not Americans, and (b) you're incapable of putting together any kind of technical justification for your claims, or even (c)
coherent claims in the first place.
On the other hand, why should I believe you? You can write here anything you want!
If you have a test you wish to propose, feel free to do so. I used to work for guys like Max Faget; it's no skin off my nose whether an anonymous internet conspiracy theorist believes me or not.
But, if you are, it explains a LOT. (so, why do YOU believveeeeeeeeeeeeeeee we have send men to the moon? something must have convinced you! was it the telly?
Asked and answered in the very paragraph to which you are responding. I can of course provide more detail, but don't feel any need to indulge you unless you start paying attention.
Good heavens, whatever gave you such a silly idea? The Apollo program, including its manned and unmanned predecessors, and its scientific and technical legacy, is the most heavily documented engineering program ever. There is an enormous amount of design, test, and operational information readily available,
I don't doubt that, I don't doubt that at all! But it clearly doesn't say a thing.
Simple denial is not an argument.
not to mention science telemetry, lunar samples, peer-reviewed research, imagery, test and flight hardware, and follow-on technical and operational heritage. You're simply trying to deny things you're not even dimly aware of.
I am aware. I have to laugh at 'lunar samples' of courses, because there is none.
Simple denial is not an argument. And no, you're not even remotely aware of the breadth and depth of evidence behind the Apollo program. You haven't even figured out that all of the standard hoax believer claims you've tossed out have been addressed in great detail
on this very board and its immediate predecessor, all laid out for you in bite-sized chunks. So, I ask again - given your demonstrated ignorance of the topic, and your persistence in refusing to learn about it, why should anyone bother engaging with you?
They have really taken you in, right?
Posturing won't help you. You echo ridiculous claims from conspiracist web sites. I do this for a living.
Do you want to just call people names and assert knowledge you don't actually have? Or would you like to actually learn something? If the former, you may provoke people into retaliating, but you can't bluff your way here. If the latter, you will find a number of knowledgeable people willing to help you.
No, I don't want to call people names. BUT you don't adress that to people here who are
calling me names! Now what is that?
Because you came in here calling people "f*'d up" and condescendingly telling us how we all just believe what we're told, etc. But, consider this my request for everyone else who has gotten into the slanging-off to please stop. It doesn't help the conversation.
Which would you rather do? Strut and pose, or learn something?
Only two options? You ARE funny!
You've been doing option 1. You're not learning anything that way. Option 2 is orthogonal to Option 1. Sorry, but that's the way it is.
