Question all widely-accepted peer-reviewed modern science because over 400 years a heliocentric universe was considered impossible.

and of course the irony that it was an oppressive Christian theocracy that punished Galileo Galilei and Copernicus.
Yeah…
See, this. This, right here, is why I stayed well clear of the entire thing. I knew some GOP moron was gonna say something like this and then another, and another, and then they’d start volleying idiotic shit back & forth between them like chimps in a poo-fight.
No. Galileo wasn’t ‘out voted’ , idiot. He was persecuted. For being RIGHT. By an all-too-powerful-Church who didn’t like his description of the universe. Did I mention that he ended up being RIGHT?
Don’t even want to know how Bachmann defiled this subject.
Yeah, “out-voted”. That was some hilarity. I assumed when I watched it that Perry saw himself as Galileo holding the light of truth up before the flickering theory of the heathen scientists. (I kept having to rewind to try to follow his train of thought.) Galileo was a scientist trying to educate the Christians of his day; can Perry truly not see the irony?
