Understanding Carla's challenge in the name of Christ

[Monica]

So, with all of those responses in mind, can we extend the same plausibility towards moon bases? The problem and (one of) the key differences is that I see is that it is not beyond our ability to disprove. We can't go back in time to examine Venus as it was during Ra's hayday, but we can look at the moon, and indeed even the dark side of the moon. Where are the bases? Subterranean moon bases then? Cloaking device hidden bases? Even those things might be possible, but what is the more likely explanation? That the government is hiding super futuristic, amazingly high-tech capabilities and has special bases on the moon or under the oceans, or that the comment made by Ra (for whatever reason, confusion, distortion, fill in the blank) was not correct?

I personally trust Ra (and my faith that it really was Ra) waaaaaaaay more than NASA. There is plenty of reason to doubt NASA's honesty and question their motives, but I find it implausible that Ra would have made such a mistake.
