/sci/ - Science & Math

The pope said heliocentrism is shit.
Don't this people has any respect for papal infallibility this days?

Sometimes I wish we could torture idiots for fun. We have so many of them. Who cares if we brutally maim a few hundred or so?

these so-called catholics don't realize that their church has decided there is no incompatibility between science and catholic beliefs. Catholics believe in evolution, heliocentrism, and other scientifically proven theories about nature.

It makes me feel like reporting this thread.

Actually, it's true. The Sun does technically revolve around the Earth. Look it up.

u mad

IT STILL MOVES, bitches!

I love how all these people were for all intensive purposes forced to go the extra mile to get their Ph.D's just so that the church can wave them around like a flag when they spew their nonsense. "THE UNIVERSE REVOLVES AROUND THE EARTH!" "No, that's dumb." "IT CAN'T BE! I HAVE A PH.D!"

Only a very very tiny amount. About as significantly as we orbit around jupiter.

haha oh wow, Its a retard convention!

LOL they charge, besides the OP fag, who else would pay?

>>1800084
What the fuck makes you think I'd pay?

you are now aware that there is no preferred inertial frame of reference and earth-centrism is just as valid as heliocentrism

>>1800183
Preferred inertial frame? You dirty mother fucker, it's the Sun, you know that center of gravity for the whole solar system everyone's been talking about!

i have a friend at ND who's going to get some people together to heckle. some anon's should join.

im christian... and im raging right now... fuck you organized religion

Maybe I'm remembering this wrong, but wasn't Copernicus the person who first came up with Heliocentrism, and not Galileo?

"Dr." Robert Sungenis - founder of the Bellarmine Theological Forum - no Ph. D

Mark Wyatt - the only thing I could find was this http://veritas-catholic.blogspot.com/
WARNING: Contains images of aborted fetuses photoshopped onto Barack Obama - it's a Christian apologetic blog

"Dr." Robert Bennett - can only find a urologist and possibly a rheumatologist/internal medicine specialist by that name - unconfirmed whether it's the same Robert Bennett

Msr. Rick/Wyn Delano - seems to be Catholic columnist - owns this twitter account (note the name) http://twitter.com/geostatic

Mr. Martin Selbrede - "Chief Scientist, Uni-Pixel Displays, Inc., Georgetown, TX, USA" - found on this page http://reformation.edu/scripture-science/index.htm

Dr. Gerardus Bouw - Ph.D in astronomy from Case Western Reserve University - Bible literalist ("I continue in the calling to warn men that the Bible is infinitely more reliable than science")

Mr. John Salza, esq. - Catholic apologist and creator of ScriptureCatholic.com

Dr. E. Michael Jones - traditional Catholic - PhD. in American literature at Temple University - editor of Culture Wars Magazine http://www.culturewars.com/

Mr. Hugh Miller - Catholic apologetic and creationist - website is Kolbe Center for the Study of Creation http://www.kolbecenter.org/

So there you have it; no well-respected astronomers or astrophysicists with peer-reviewed evidence for a geocentric theory - just a bunch of Christian apologists trying to further an ideological and dogmatic agenda with false claims and pseudo-science galore. None of these fools/liars/thieves/hypocrites/idiots should be taken seriously. They all have the same goal - destroy/obfuscate public knowledge for the sake of religion.

yes, Copernicus came up with it and then the church asked Galileo to go through the math hoping he would say it is wrong, when he could not find anything wrong he sided with Copernicus and the church put Galileo under house arrest for it.

>>1801328
Ah ok, I somehow thought that picture implied Galileo came up with it, but that makes sense.

I like the site. All it contains is stuff to try and make you buy their book.

This cancer should be purified from the society.

>>1799101
so is this event actually happening?

>>1801499
Yes, yes it is.

>>1801502
im not even muslim but there better be 72 god damned virgins waiting for me when i scarifice myself to destroy these people for the good of mankind

>>1801503
What if they turn out to be fugly and fatcows, but virgins nonetheless?

>>1801511
at least i'll still have my pride

>>1799101
>mfw each of those "Dr." and "PhD" are in theology or medicine, not anything to do with physics or cosmology

>>1801667
i always considered taking 1 class in theology just to better understand sociology, but a whole fucking degree?

>>1801671
Theology is pretty badass, dood. You can be an atheist and still have a PhD in theology. "Theology" does not mean "study of the religion you believe in."

>>1801680
exactly, i just wanted to broaden my knowledge

Holy shit, I just moved to South Bend from the Bible Belt. I was hoping I'd left this shit behind.

ignorance is eternal, it exists in all races and creeds, you will never escape it

I SEE....

Roman Catholic here
ohshitniggerswhatareyoudoing
it's like you want God to be some fucker who pooped everything out 6,000 year ago. aren't myriad laws and physics and mechanics, which we are still fleshing out, indicative enough of a higher being?

stop making God a vindictive dumbass
