Of course, most of the propaganda taught by *all* religious
schools is basically on the same level as saying that
"the sun revolves around the earth".  In fact, most of it is
worse, since at least it's possible to derive meaningful equations
to describe local planetary motions even *with* the erroneous assumption
of an earth-centered universe.  Deriving equations to "prove" the
sorts of religious drivel taught to youngsters at most religious 
"educational" institutions would be another matter entirely, to say
the least.

Please send all flames to net.religion, to which I do not subscribe...
How did this discussion ever get onto net.misc, anyway?  Cheers.
