Fable Accepted as Reality - International "Space" Station
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Space_Station
2 Timothy 4:3-4: For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears. And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
The "International Space Station" is an unoriginal hoax. NASA videos and photographs of this station are filmed on the Earth at a studio designed to imitate a station in space.
An earlier form of space station propaganda, the Skylab hoax was perpetrated in 1974. The Viking Mars lander propaganda which began in 1975 and 1976 was accompanied by the Star Wars space propaganda of CIA agent George Lucas which subconsciously focused much of the public's mind away from suspicious thought concerning the reality of these events.

Wow, it sounds EXACTLY like a Young Earth Creationist, the exact same tone,same random bible verses, same claims of a massive sscientific conspiracy with absolutely nothing to gain from their elaborate hoaxes except persecuting christians.
Yeah, you know all about making a Fable accepted as reality. Look how well you have succeded with the Bible.
Interesting user name. So you condone adultery?
on a bright sunset, with a bit of luck, you can see it with your own eyes.
Unfortunately, it looks like a small bright glowing cross, and we know what happens when fundies see that kind of shit..
Except that you can use a telescope to look up and SEE the space station.
@ Lucilius
Notice how they provide exactly zero evidence to support their claims. It's laughable, really. These people, if they're not Poes (and I think there's a good chance they are), are on the fringe of even the fringe.
Oh yes, George Lucas, because no one else has ever done a movie IN SPACE! No Radar Men From the Moon, no Star Trek, no 2001: A Space Odyssey, nothing, nada, zip, zilch.
The space movie begins and ends with George Lucas.
Methinks you're mixing your conspiracies, this is usually because bullshit is never confined to factual events and just goes everywhere in time.
Please try to provide more cincise bullshit next time. C-
The second I saw the link was to "The Flat Earth Society", I knew I had to steer clear from this post. I am not even going to comment on its contents, because it is from people called "THE FLAT EARTH SOCIETY".
This guy probably thinks space stations are fictitious because it's impossible for an object to be stationary above the Earth.
(Admittedly, the term "space station" is a bit misleading, as these "stations" are oribiting the Earth at the same 17,500 miles-per-hour that the Space Shuttle does.)
*Scratches head* I don't see why you find the concept of a space station so implausible? And why would governments go to such lengths to convince us that space stations exist, if they don't? What is there to gain by such a deception? What political incentive is there to do this?
Perhaps I shouldn't have asked......cue more craziness.
A hoax like the blue sky hoax of 1908, a damnable Darwinist lie.
I suggest these morons get themselves some powerful binoculars and look at the station when it flies overhead themselves.
But then again, seeing this is from the Flat Brain Society I don't exactly expect much.
I first heard of the Flat Earth Society in 1974. Earth Science teacher that mentioned them thought they were serious.... No idea whether it's a philosophical hoax (prove the world isn't flat!) or non-euclidean whoop-de-woo, or conspiracy theory based on disbelief in the magnetic compass and other observable phenomenon, but they predate the Internet.
That said, George Lucas is an animatronic robot built by the reanimated head of Walt Disney at the request of the Rothchilds.
George Lucas is actually a CIA agent, and not a trained director with years of experience in his craft?
...That explains Episode 3, then.
Yeah, uh, dude, you can fucking SEE it orbiting at night.
That'd be some trickery if they could fake that, but clearly THEY CAN'T.
eh, for the fact he tries to justify this with a bible quote it's fundie. should be on both.
The Flat Earth Society was, ORIGINALLY, dead serious, and there's lots of information about the solemnity of its original founder. (It is of course just slightly possible that he lived his entire life as a super-serious Poe for the lulz.) It's pretty impossible to prove that the remaining members or the website isn't a big collection of satirists.
The New Flat Earth society is a satire by a college professor, and there used to also be a Discordian joke of a flat earthers organization that claimed the earth was flat, had five sides, and was on the back of a turtle, though their website hasn't been up for a while now. These are seperate satire organizations.
Well, the whole 'Flat Earth' BS is a conspiracy theory. Because you can't PROVE the earth isn't a sphere.
Read Terry Pratchett's novels, much?
It's always delightful with FSTDT and CSTDT combine.
I'm sorry, did I say delightful? I meant frightening. Extremely frightening.
So let me get this right, The European, American & Russian Space agencies are involved in a massive hoax...?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
