Please enlighten me as to why landing on the moon would have an effect on the cold war

Edit: Ignore this.
The cold war was Russia vs the United States of america to get into space, or be the most advanced in space travel. It wasn't really a war, but people from russia and america were fighting to get somewhere first. Russia was the first into space, but america wanted to be first to the moon, Russia had a challenge then.
i believe it did happen and that it was a very important event in history. like TM said, there are just some people who will argue about everything. for instance, people who refuse to acknowledge that the holocaust happened...
The problem is people can see a conspiracy in everything. I know someone who is big on them and the problem is I find a lot of people like this person can make a lot of so called facts based on assumptions. It's like the whole bin laden thing - they didn't show him when they killed him so it had to be a lie, but if they'd showed him then it would have been fake or something - the problem is these people are never happy.
I do believe that yes that the government and people lie as proved in the past and I try to look at things with an open mind but I don't like to fully decide on stuff without really knowing.
There probably are reasons that the Americans could fake it, but even if it was fake; none of them would ever admit it.
I have completely flipped off the moon since i came up with dreams of NASA building mars bases for us to live in if something goes wrong :)
