This is like one of those "suburban myths" that hang around forever. Or like that NASA story. "NASA spent $1.5M trying to create a zero-gravity pen for space travel, while the Russians just used a pencil." What they leave out is the reason why NASA didn't want a pencil. It's because the lead in the pencil can break off or leave carbon particles behind which can then accumulate on the electronic circuit boards and short things out. Having electronics short out in space is probably not a great thing.
I took it for granted that he was burned at the stake, it was very surprising to me to hear he didn't! Man, how we were lied to... The more I learn about Catholicism, the more I realize that
Blessed Nicolas Steno was the son of a Lutheran goldsmith, that went to Amsterdam to be a physician. Ended being the physician of Federico de Medici, converted to Catholicism was ordained bishop and sent as Apostolic "envoy" (sorry, forgot the title) to the north of Germany (IIRC Münster).
Just what we’ve been waiting to see! A perfect follow-up to “Refuting 5 Anti-Catholic Historical Myths” and great material in general for this channel.
Hi Trent, what a great video yet again and I stand by my belief that yourself and your good friend Jimmy Akin are the Mycroft and Sherlock Holmes of apologists, the smartest guys in the room.
Copernicus' book went into two editions, a 1543 and a 1566, so it cannot have been an all time worst seller, plus Owen Gingerich wrote 'The Book Nobody Read' where he goes around the world looking at all the extant copies and assesses all the margin notes made by the various readers, which were often copious.
I probably have this wrong but it's interesting to think about. We can only calculate how fast we're going in reference to another point in space. But if everything in space is itself moving, there's really no stationary point against which to measure speed. So, earth is going around the sun at 67,000 mph, our solar system is orbiting in the milky way at 490,000 mph, our galaxy cluster is moving toward a point at 2,200,000 mph...
When are you and your guest have on your channel to have Robert Sungenis on to have an extensive discussion on this important topic of Galileo!! Asked you this awhile ago???

Mr. Horn, I must thank you for having this wonderful show! It has played an integral part of my process in RCIA!
Everything seems similar between Trent's and Chris' setup, except the image quality which is better for Chris. This guy really signs Trent's checks .

Wish my astronomy professor at college was as honest with the situation as these presenters were.
Great to see. I know this was a long-awaited video.

Great episode. Waiting for Giordano Bruno Case

I Hope that you would cover about The 'War' on Cats by Pope Gregory IX in these ongoing series.
We discussed the Galileo Affair this week in my Master's program.

would you please make a video on the history of the seventh ecumenical council?
Fr. Paul Robinson's book is quite good.
