Welcome to Mortification of Spin, a casual conversation about things that count with Carl Truman and Todd Pruitt, a podcast of the Alliance of Confessing Evangelicals.

Let's join this week's conversation.

Thank you. Welcome to Mordification of Spin. My name's Carl Truman. I'm Professor at Grove City College in

Western Pennsylvania and fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center in Washington, D.C. And I'm Professor at Grove City College in Western Pennsylvania and fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy

Center in Washington, D.C. And I'm here with my longstanding dear friend, the Reverend Todd Pruitt,

pastor of Covenant Presbyterian Church in Harrisonburg, Virginia. Great to be with you, Todd.

Great to be with you, Carl, as always.

I've got a question I have to ask you. My teaching assistant, a man called Isaac Willow said,

I want you to ask Todd this question. He said, I'm an avid follower of his Twitter,

etc, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. You've got to ask Todd this. So don't shoot the messenger. But the question that Isaac once under is, do you believe in the moon landings?

Yes.

That's a relief.

I am not a conspiracy theorist.

However, I do find some validity. And this has just been within the last six months or so. I'm

starting to find some validity in the old statement that the difference between a conspiracy theory and

the truth is about six months. And so, I mean, I mean, come on, Carl, you have to admit,

in some respects, we're through the looking glass at this point. I mean, I mean, come on, Carl, you have to admit, in some respects, we're through the looking glass at this point.

I mean, there's some strange goings on.

There are days when the only thing that stops me believing in conspiracy theories is the

fact that people are too stupid and lazy to pull them off.

There's an awful lot of evidence suggests that exists.

I will also say that there is a new now multimedia. stupid and lazy to pull them off. There's an awful lot of evidence suggests that exist.
