It seems to me that this covers a lot of subjects. The whole concept of "evolutionism", Relativity, cosmology, biological evolution and the evidence for it, taxonomy , egocentrism and perhaps more. And it also seems to me that there is an awful lot to say on each of these topics, and even related topics would be better discussed in separate threads.
I suggest that this thread is reserved for the movie itself, and the other subjects are split off.

You'd try to link Christianity to long-discredited falsehoods that in reality have nothing to do with Jesus' message ?
A nice try, but it doesn't seem to be working very well. Everyone thinks you're just another religious crank.

Re: Galileo Was Wrong...about circular planetary orbits
But isn't it obvious that all astronomers - including those working at the Vatican Observatory - are dedicated to destroying Christianity and overthrowing the Catholic Church ?

Re: Galileo Was Wrong...about circular planetary orbits

Re: Galileo Was Wrong...about circular planetary orbits
I think that it's a confused reference to Mach's Principle
And to be fair, Mach's Principle is a confusing subject. But then again, that's a good reason to avoid using it in your arguments.
