Mind's Eye Re: Different points of view are all true

The Greeks knew abut this Andrew. Equally powerful arguments can be
made that apparently contradict each other. One then needs some
special faculty to suspend judgement. For years the standard notion
was of the Earth as the centre of the universe, but the Copernican
view was present a thousand years or so before him. Alternatives to
Big Bang include ideas that we might better see this 'event' like
water freezing instead. The issue is how we deal with evidence and
the key here is the conflation of cultural rituals with a reasoned
world-view. Human beings will believe absolute tosh.
