> should be debated and refuted

If you have even a passing acquaintance with the subject, this has been "debated and refuted" for hundreds of years.

Should "did NASA land on the Moon?" also be debated and refuted? Why or why not? If major TV networks ran hour-long specials, where each side gets to present their case for/against moon landings for 30 minutes, would this be beneficial to the world?
