More of a statement (two moons and red moon on the 27th)?

Question

I see many questions about the two moons and the red moon tonight. The way I understand it is that the planet Mars will be as close to the earth's orbit as it has been in over 2000 years, and because of this, and Mar's atmosphere, the sun's reflection will actually be bouncing from the sun to MARS, then off of Mars' dense atmosphere  to earth. This light "detour" off of Mars will then cause the moon to turn a "blood red" color. But I'm cloudy as crap here so I won't be able to see anything anyway. I even broke out the telescope, apparently for nothing. And as far as the two moons...well it's actually the moon and mars in the sky, but Mars won't be any brighter than Venus is during the summer soltice. It will just look like the brightest STAR in the sky. Courtesy of "Star Hustler" circa 1990, PBS

Where are you getting your information from?

Add some details and show us your evidence of Mars being the closest in 2000 years. 

The Sun's reflection will be bouncing off Mars then to Earth turning the Moon red?

Where did you come up with that?

The only thing that is cloudy here are your thoughts. You can't just take heresay from your nutty neighbor or from a psychic website and post them on a science forum as some kind of facts. Besides Mars looking like a star, the rest of your 'statement' is ridiculous hogwash. 

Give us the science websites or books where you received your data.

You may want to ease up on your 'statements' for a while.

There's no gentle way to say this, but you've been had BAD. The eclipse is nothing to do with Mars. And the Mars opposition this year doesn't happen until December.
