While scanning this morning early I ran across a show with a gentleman

Being an novice amateur astronomer I was excited to hear a show that
discussed such things on SW.

As it turns out, it was a religious station and the "gentleman" was
presenting evidence that the two moons are actually NOT orbiting Mars
any longer. They are now orbiting Earth.

That's news to the astronomical community. Especially since the two
moons of Mars can still be seen orbiting the planet. One of the Mars
landers (Opportunity) recently observed both moons eclipsing the sun.
What you heard is just another example of certain religious 'kooks' on
shortwave. What scares me is they may actually believe stuff like this.
