(With apologies to Roger for stealing one of his taglines)

This was alluded to in the dGrasse Tyson thread, but WHAT THE FUCKING SHITKNUCKLES CHRIST is this?

I don't even care that it's some actor who pretended to be a space captain.  That would be like thinking Jan-Michael Vincent has some sort of special insight when it comes to helicopters.

No, the point is that it's a show about heliocentrism.  Which we should have done away with IN THE FIFTHEENTH FUCKING CENTURY.

The kicker?  I'll leave it to the article:

QuoteSungenis [the movie's principal] also happens to be a Holocaust  denier who believes in the "New World Order" and who writes articles about how Jewish people have aligned themselves with Satan. In fact, he's such a notorious anti-semite that even his own local bishop, Kevin Rhoades of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Harrisburg, has gone on record distancing himself from the guy and his "Catholic" organization. Seriously, do you know how much of an ass you have to be to get a bishop to notice you?


To sum up:

"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."

Also, I feel that perhaps we've been a little hasty with our cosmology.

The Earth centric model, for example, can work if all the planets sort of do a little loop-de-loop once every half orbit.

Also, it occurs to me that the world makes way more sense if it's flat.

The world makes more sense if I just accept the fact that the nice nurse will be along shortly with my next dose, and the nightmares will end any minute, now.

If Luna was a furry, she'd sex humans and scream "BEASTIALITY!" at the top of her lungs at inopportune times.

I like the Luna one. She is a good one.

Balls.  Physics favors the flat earth model just as much as the 'almost spherical' one if you're willing to WIGGLE a bit, and Occam wasn't elected Jesus or anything.

Prove it isn't.  And don't give me any of that "Apollo program" crap, heathen.  You can't see the shape of the Earth from a movie set in Nevada.

Because if I don't account for the world being round, the site plan I draw for a site in Manhattan ends up in Schenectady.

And that would just be fucking inconvenient. Not that the Universe is above playing dirty tricks like that, but I'm not gonna go around enabling that kind of behavior.
