Gimmah the evidence

[Angrboda]

C'mon guys. Isn't anyone going to point out to this enrico guy that Galileo had nothing to do with trying to tell people the Earth was round?

Galileo 15 February 1564 – 8 January 1642

Galileo championed the idea of heliocentrism. That the Earth and other planets revolve around the sun.

How fussy and boring a person can be!!!
When i mention Galileo i also said............As Galileo and other scientists found difficult to give evidence..............i meant all the wave of scientists that came up with a different point of view from the conventional point of view got into ridicule.

What you actually said was:

Few hundreds years ago when Galileo and other scientists were saying that the planet earth was not flat¹ and was not the center of the universe the ignorant masses were saying.........GIMMAH THE EVIDENCE.

Once the full context is restored, it's clear that you were referring to scientists a few hundred years ago, and the suggestion that such scientists were contesting that the earth was a globe is false, as Rahul asserted.

Is being dishonest about what you wrote a part of your yoga?
