What? Are you SERIOUS! Galileo was NOT "contrary to the church" at all! He was a Catholic first and a scientist second...until THE TRUTH was rejected by the church. Even then, he remained a Catholic and suffered under their oppression for his having told the truth.

First of all: YOU HAVE NO "RIGHT" TO POST HERE at all! Just like membership at the JFKresearch Forum, posting is a PRIVILEGE not a "right" -- But, I suppose you can "say" whatever you want about the "dominant" scientific view. However, that is not an ARGUMENT as to the validity of that view! The Warren Report remains the dominant "official" view of the JFK assassination, but that is NOT an argument as to the validity of its conclusions.
That you are a High School teacher who cannot make these distinctions is terribly frightening. You are at the core of the "Dumbing Down of America" as far as I can tell. That you allegedly teach JFK's assassination as a conspiracy "theory" is even more frightening. I would prefer to work with students that were indoctrinated by Arlen Specter. They would no doubt be less confused.

Look, Gary. I'm being kind. Stop pushing for a thrashing.
Quote:At least I go with the best science while you guys go with the best of paranoid delusions, like Severson must be a disinfo. agent on the weekends & just teaches conspiracy theory during the week to cover his real ID. You guys are some sick puppies.
What does "teaches conspiracy theory" mean? You're a high school teacher. Go ask the chairman of the English Grammar Department what's wrong with that sentence. It's almost like using a transitive verb inappropriately. It is improper to say this (pseudo) sentence: "I make." That is not a sentence. You can say, "I ran." That is a sentence. You can say, "I left." That too, is a sentence. But, "I make." is not a sentence. So too, the idea that you "teach conspiracy theory" is really idiotic, isn't it? Do you teach EVERY conspiracy theory ever imagined to your students or do you teach only select ones?
To paraphrase Charles: You are fucking wrong...again.
