In the Hopi prophecies of the Great Purification (endtimes) one of the points they say will happen before the changes get severe is "men will bring back rocks from the moon, and this will upset the balance of nature".

Another Hopi prophecy warns that nothing should be brought back from the Moon -- obviously anticipating the Apollo 11 mission that returned with samples of lunar basalt. It this was done, the Hopi warned, the balance of natural and universal laws and forces would be disturbed, resulting in earthquakes, severe changes in weather patterns, and social unrest.

THE WARNING: The white man will steal rocks from the moon. This is a danger sign, that we are in the final days before the purification.
THE FULFILLMENT: The Apollo moon landings unearthed (or should I say “un-mooned?”) hundreds of pounds of moon rocks, taking them back to Earth. Indeed I saw one sitting under glass in the United Nations, just outside the main theater where the Hopi Elders shared their prophecies to the full United Nations delegation just a few years before.

the best reason would be to prevent anyone from proving that the rocks came from earth or were manufactured by humans... thus proving that 'nasa-hollywood' has lied to all humankind... and never set foot on the moon!

Why not make the truth; earth was formed and created by man along with false history, blah, blah, blah, only 100 years or so ago, which would be 'top secret level knowledge' for most this revelation would be denied; but if all humans have been brainwashed and the game is over 12-21-2012, might as well enjoy yourself and not worry about those pesky details... and the ufo's are our parent race who is unable to exist in earth's atmosphere, hence our creation...

Re: Can anyone PLEASE explain why Moon Rocks are illegal to own? Why so many have been busted trying to steal them?
It's not illegal to own Moon rocks. It is illegal to steal the rocks collected by the Apollo program, as they are government property. You don't need to steal them if your intentions are good, anyway - you can just write to NASA and ask them nicely. They hand out samples for scientific examination all the time, you just can't have some if you intend to put it on your mantelpiece or sell it for profit.

This refutes the claim that they are being kept secret so nobody realizes they are fakes - they have been studied by thousands of scientists from around the world over the last four decades, and all of them are quite certain that the rocks are not terrestrial in origin.

Owning lunar samples is not illegal, it is, however, illegal to steal or try to sell speciments that belong to others.

There have been several meteorites that have been shown to be of lunar origin. They come up for public sale from time to time, but expect to pay a handsome price.

Except, as has already been pointed out, it simply isn't the case.

Thousands of scientists have examined the samples, from many nations and over several decades. Any researcher can ask NASA for a sample, they give them out all the time. There are countless academic papers available based on study of the lunar samples, and none of them show any proof of fraud. The rocks are demonstrably different from Earth rocks in several important and impossible to fake ways. They undeniably come from the Moon.

Re: Can anyone PLEASE explain why Moon Rocks are illegal to own? Why so many have been busted trying to steal them?
Some scientists say that our moon was a giant space ship brought here about 2 billion years ago by space aliens; for what reason nobody knows. They say that it is in too perfect of an orbit to be natural. For this reason they believe that the surface was artificially created to look like a planet to camouflage it. Thus for this reason the rocks and dust of the surface were artificially put there and created for this purpose. Some say that the rocks picked up by the astronauts were made up of a great deal of titanium thus proving that they were artificially made by aliens billion of years ago. The originator of this theory was, a Russian Scientist named Vasin Shcherbakov. For more information on this subject look at wikipedia.org/Vasin-Shecherbakov_Theory.

It is illegal to own moon rocks because.
I think it would be fairly clear to assume.
If you have a moon rock, you didn't get it from the moon yourself did you?
And it is stolen property.
