  • @gh778jk (Auto-Answer System) Just a note to say thank you for taking the effort to comment. I am so backlogged right now with Comments I can't reply individually but I really appreciate it.

  • the historical figures' voice-overs are the best i've ever heard in a documentary.  This was the best description I've ever seen of Galileo's trial. Thanks for posting.

  • @cdsoder345432 I'll have to go check that out specifically. Thanks for commenting!.

  • The Galileo affair testifies to the fact that you get into trouble, as the Church did, when you try to look at the Bible as a science manual when it is not. The Church should have heeded Cardinal Beronius who said in 1615 that the Bible teaches us how to go to Heaven, and not how the heavens go.

  • God & Religion is a Evil creation of man-kind.

  • The Mayans even knew that our solar system spiralled around a galaxy and the figures of the eastern islands all have a distinctive look when you have an open mind. And by the way: Stonehenge is still a mystery in how it has been constructed!

  • @TrickShot1100 So glad that you're liking these. Take care.

  • @PalerShadeOfWhite Just wanted to send a note of thanks.

    I am enjoying these "Acent of Man" up loads.

    Do not feel the need to answer.

    Just give yourself a pat on the back. LOL

  • Good Deal.

  • "...and then we come back to the moon-isn't she delicious." ;- )

  • @distortingjack I mean, some leaders of the Church.

  • @wbarquez I don't think it was exactly the Church who got into trouble at that time : )
