I would rather see a thousand frivolous manned moon landings than see the same amount of money needed to send them there spent on weapons of war and destruction. The joy of achievement over adversity is always preferable to sorrow caused by the cruelty of the human race.
WADR - those $$ spent on weapons of mass destruction are there to ensure that mass destruction does not occur. They are the 'checks and balances' that keep others from destroying the world, dontcha think? From what I've seen in the last year, there are plenty of kookies out there in our big world that think nothing of human life (except their own I surmise) that would slingshot a bomb or two in a heartbeat if they believed we had nothing to counter with (that in fact would end their being....see above exception).
Yes, the world would be all flowery and lovely if no one had weapons but it aint gonna happen.
