That's the same excuse Christians use for the contradictions in the bible.

Consequently, our solar system is not in the plane of the Milky Way but is offset at at rather high angle to it. We don't exactly revolve around the center of the Milky Way Galaxy as many people think.
Please provide a citation for that. I don't believe you are correct.

Well, at least the doubter admitted that the Milky Way is in fact gobbling up the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy. He's wrong about the main point. When you look at the night sky you can plainly see that the Milky Way is at a different angle to our system. If we were an integral part of an arm of the Milky Way we would see things a lot different. But because we are in transit through the Milky Way we see it at the angle that we do instead of Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy. If we had another 100-200 million years it would be obvious.

A different angle than what? Your main point is simply wrong.
