Does it? Had me fooled, I would have bet the sun went around the earth. Are you sure of that? ;)

There's a new movement that is telling people that Galileo was wrong. They say the earth is the center of the universe. This is real, not joking here. They're putting out movies on it and the thought is that America is a great place to build support because so many Americans are completely ignorant. They're using the same tactic as the GOP and I would not be surprised to learn that the movement is primarily GOP fundies.

A new Dark age is slowly growing within our society. Once you unhinge people from reason and you destroy their faith in science and truth, anything is possible. The Nazis burned books first then people. These folks are cut from a similar piece of cloth.
