You are the one doing the leaping. I said the "idea" was deeply religious, and it is. It was part of religious teaching for thousands of years via various religions. Whether today's religions teach it is something I don't know. How many 'thousands' of years are you talking? and which civilizations? I know the early Egyptians(Pyramid builders) as well as the early Jews (Cabala studiers) didn't think that way.. Concerning this being a religious 'theory' that's been taught for 'thousands' of years? I really think you're projecting again.... But if that's really what and how you wish to believe, then more power to you... |

He was an advocate of heliocentrism (Earth and planets revolve around a relatively stationary Sun at the center of the Solar System) and was investigated for it by an inquisition, which said he was wrong and heliocentrism was contrary to the bible. He was forbidden from lecturing that the earth was *not* the center of the solar system, and later he was forced under pain of death to recant his teachings. He spent the rest of his life under house arrest. So, if you go from your starting point (ancient Egyptians) to Galileo, that would be thousands of years, and that there are still people who believe the earth is still the center of the solar system is without question a testament to the thousands of years of religious misinformation. After he died, Galileo, one of the greatest thinkers of mankind, was denied an honored resting place because of religious ignorance. |

You also should have included Sir Issac Newton, but he and Galileo didn't live 'thousands' of years ago. |
