YES, I mean a flying spaghetti monster is one thing, but unicorns ARE real.

It is well known that the unicorns were born procrastinators, and were late to the Ark due to goofing off with all the dinosaurs.

The most depressing thing is that I know christian people who try to tell me that I can't prove unicorns don't exist...

Hey, genetic engineering could still turn a horse into a unicorn.

Science, the reason behind reasonings and facts. Fuck you religion.

Well at least with science we can possibly create unicorns.

Didn't the Greeks disprove the theory that the Sun revolves around the Earth?

Not sure. The accepted geocentric cosmology in the middle ages was attributed to Aristotle.

Yea so basically wayyyy before 1543.

No. Notice geocentric, not heliocentric.

"The notion that the Earth revolves around the Sun had been proposed as early as the 3rd century BC by Aristarchus of Samos,[2] but had received no support from most other ancient astronomers." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heliocentrism

I cite wikipedia because I'm good at science.

IIRC the Greeks didn't really prove anything astronomically. However, on a similar note, science was kicking ass way before the 16th century, even in Europe.

Why 1543?

  • Andreas Vesalius publishes De humani corporis fabrica (On the Fabric of the Human Body), revolutionising the science of human anatomy.

  • Nicolaus Copernicus publishes De revolutionibus orbium coelestium in Nuremberg (these last two events can be considered as leading to the Scientific Revolution.

Too late, it came from an SMBC t-shirt that just came out.

Wow. That's quite ironic. I'm writing a paper on the Heliocentric and Geocentric Model right now, relating to the first picture.

I don't understand. Science destroyed Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel frescos? What?

Unicorns are possible, just not proven.
