Most certainly not. Why not, hypocrite? Because... I support the right of people to own firearms, subject to reasonable regulation. No, you don't. You support your own right to own firearms. I guess you have fun just making this **** up out of the blue. You pair have an unhealthy dependency going on however you do raise the issue about conjuring up things out of thin air. "For to the earth planetary motions appear sometimes direct, sometimes stationary, nay, and sometimes retrograde. But from the sun they are always seen direct,..." Newton You disappeared quickly from a thread containing the main astronomical arguments for the Earth's orbital motion between Venus and Mars by virtue that we see all planets move in the same direction around the Sun with the outer planets temporarily falling behind in view due to the faster orbital motion of the Earth. You are just another empirical drone lost in a wordplay Newton created but at least his scheme can be dealt with with confidence and competence in that he conjured up an absolute/relative space and motion out of his hideous misuse of heliocentric reasoning - "It is indeed a matter of great difficulty to discover, and effectually to distinguish, the true motion of particular bodies from the apparent; because the parts of that absolute space, in which those motions are performed, do by no means come under the observation of our senses. Yet the thing is not altogether desperate; for we have some arguments to guide us, partly from the apparent motions, which are the differences of the true motions" Newton Behind all those centuries of take-my-word-for-it are people who know next to nothing about astronomy and that includes you and your cowboy hat. |
