Facts are inconveniences to you. You prefer your immature fantasies.


What happens when you look out one morning or indeed an evening when the Sun disappears from view on any given weekday and you realize you have been following people who believed there are more rotations than weekdays ?. What happens when you realize that the field of stars close to plane of our orbital motion change their position to the central and stationary Sun ?. The last one you already did but that indoctrination you were subjected to in your youth remains so entrenched that the only avenue open to you is attack what you can't admire.

The two sticks and a watch brigade can't appreciate the only acceptable way these old tools were used in converting the variations in the natural noon cycle to a 24 hour average nor even when Sir Isaac tried to classify this timekeeping facility as time itself.

You people are lost .
