how many marijuanas have you injected

The Moon is spiraling away from Earth at an average rate of 3.8 cm (1.5 in) per year, as detected by the Lunar Laser Ranging Experiment.[2][3][4] The recession rate is considered anomalously high.[5] By coincidence, the diameter of corner cubes in retroreflectors on the Moon is also 3.8 cm (1.5 in).[6][7]

A piece of advice, if your looking for a conspiracy theory to believe in: Choose one that does not involve numbers. They are WAY too easy to destroy.

the moon is exactly 1/400th of the size of the sun
and its orbit occurs at a distance of exactly 1/400th the distance between the earth and the sun.
(this causes total eclipses, a unique phenomenon as far as we know)

the earth is 3.66 times the size of the moon, and takes 366 days to orbit the sun
the moon takes 27.322 days to orbit the earth, which creates a very neat 10,000 days to complete 366 orbits


say you believe those things are just coincidences, that they're just a fluke

It really is a fluke right now. An accident of our existence at this time instead of a hundred million years one way or the other. The moon is constantly moving away from the earth (at a slow rate). At some point in the future we will no longer be able to have total solar eclipses because the moon will be too far away to completely eclipse the sun.

So because "it's always been there" you don't ever question how it got there?
if you study the mathematical ratios related to the earth, sun, and moon

the data is really rather peculiar.
