Thanks for your discussion. My opinion:
1. To Tony873002:That's not what would happen if the Moon orbited Earth in a polar orbit.
What I want to say in this article is that this would not happen,either.
2.To Ken G: you can be sure that if the coriolis effect changed the tilt, the Moon's orbit would not still be tilted from the Sun-Earth plane (and it is, and has been, for billions of years).
We know that the Moon's orbit is still being changed, 4-5cms bigger in diameter a year.
To Ken GOh, and the reason the objects are mostly in the same plane going around the same way is the conservation of the angular momentum during the contraction and formation of the solar system. In contrast to the above theory, this explanation holds up perfectly well to actual calculations.)
We know that there are many doubts can not be explained by that theory. This is why I wrote this article.
