  • Awsome thanks so much. Made me proud tobe a part of the Church.

  • You're welcome. It is unfortunate that more individuals continue to maintain the fallcy that the church was an intellectual impediment to science rather than its primary benefactor for centuries.

  • @thomaserossi Maybe you can use your knowledge for something other than calling people names. Tell ME. WHY is the Solar System CALLED the Solar System?

  • @wtfoof Many. Many. Galileo, in case you have not heard, was not ousted because his theory was wrong necessarily. The Church merely demanded Galileo provide evidence for his theory. He needed technology that was not yet available at the time to prove his theory, so he couldn't. Yet he continued to teach it. Throw in some politically charged Italian nobles into the mix who are like the modern Republicans and not like the Church at all, and BAM! you get Galileo under house arrest!

  • @wtfoof - Wow! You're so indoctrinated you're actually stupid. A stupid person would have a better chance of correct than an indoctrinated dipshit like you. You're so indoctrinated beyond stupid you argued that the Church promoted "a egocentric solar system."

    For starters, it was a GEOcentric UNIVERSE. You're so stupid you cannot understand the reason WHY it's called a SOLAR system. The fact that we revolve around the Sun makes it Heliocentric, hence a SOLAR system. Dumbass.

  • @wtfoof The Church promoted an egocentric solar system? And here I thought that was Max Stirner.

  • Western civilization Like the Dark Age where the Church banned and Burn Books, especially those of Ancient Rome and Greece? Blamed the various plagues on the Jews? Allowed only the Sciences that promoted a egocentric solar system? How many Scientist today are Catholic?

  • I can vouch for the not-reading-anything bit. Good thing there's YouTube!
