Default Neil DeGrasse Tyson headed down same loony road as Carl Sagan?

Oh great, the intellectual cripple shows up and joins the party where historical characters do their bidding. Won't be long before he asks the usual question but that is what happens when another sci-fi addict shows up in this newsgroup.

Pointing fingers at the Church or individuals doesn't matter when observations are in front of those who can be bullied or who suffer the hapless. The system of predictions using the direct motion of the Sun through the Zodiac in tandem with the direct/retrograde motions of the planets can't account nor prove the Earth and the other planets make a circuit of the Sun.

A sun centered system is indirectly inferred by the faster Earth overtaking the slower moving planets but Not the faster moving Venus and Mercury -

The direct/retrogrades of Venus and Mercury from their smaller circumferences and faster motion is a direct observation of planetary motion around the Sun as their loops are actual and not illusory -

The subculture here does no do common sense, the first time direct/retrogrades are partitioned since Copernicus and these people are busy manufacturing history with an astronomical foundation.
