I AGREE that there could be 2 light sources acting on the Moon, (Earthglow and the Sun), so please don't patronise me. I do not however, agree with the two light sources being able to cast shadows at 2 completely different angles, and any one of you who is going to come back and debate that this is the case is simply talking bull****. Light runs in parallels and so therefore could not possibly have the ability to make shadows fall in different directions. The two light sources would converge, otherwise with your theory, every object would have 2 shadows.

Haven't you seen the photographs, taken on earth, that show the exact same phenomenon? Shadows appear not to be parallel in many situations; they converge or diverge.
Have you ever seen a fan of sunbeams? They don't look parallel. But they actually are. It's an artifact.

I really like the way that you guys say that I shouldn't be commenting because I am not an astrophysicist, rocket engineer or anything else . . .

Nope. We're saying that you aren't learning. You're repeating the same errors, over and over, and you won't acknowledge them.
