That should settle the matter; anything beyond that is in the same category as appealing to the motion of stars and planets as being due to angelic beings pushing on them.
Those models need to be confirmed via experimentation. Religionists build holy places like churches, only to bring on more believers and tithe them.
Nerds build the LHC, An overpriced microscope (lel), but something to prove or disprove a model. What can be disproved in a church? Nothing. It's cool since I live in Portugal, there is an abundance of monasteries, moorish fortresses, celtic monuments, (obelix surely brought some menirs here with asterix). Dolmens are awesome. Those primitive people managed to put a big ass stone on top of other 3 pillar like stones to serve as burial ground.
There is nothing bad about that. It's people. Trying to pay the dead after they are dead. I instructed my family to give me in advance all the money they wish to spend on my funeral. I never wore pajamas.
