Hi Scott

I am certainly not a Galileo, but your closed mindedness reminds me of what he had to endure from the scientific community of his time.

“For hundreds of years it was an accepted truth that the earth was the center of the universe and all the heavenly bodies rotated around it. Galileo, the scientist who invented the telescope, published his findings which proved that actually the earth revolved around the sun. The scientific community was so upset with his departure from accepted theories that they threatened to bring Galileo before the court on charges if he did not retract what they considered irresponsible statements.”

Scott, as I told you when you first posted to the board, name one principle this site advocates that you know to be flawed. Explain why it is flawed and your corrected version. A frame-by-frame analysis of a few clips will allow the readers to decide the truth.
