"Spell" is like wording to convince us, that sort of thing, nothing beyond magic other than atomic warfare.

We are in the Einsteinian Dark Age.
But i dont think we can blame Alby, all he did was to propose a theory or two. The blame goes to all of the idiots who swallowed it, plus all of the fools who wouldnt swallow but didnt spit it back either. The main blame for the spell goes to the money changers who trumpeted the new god & new religion. Alby went along for the ride. The spell is now dogma, in every institution. Heretics are thrown into the cold. Skoolkids pray to his statue, the Prince of Darkness.
But not for much longer -- for the times they are a'changin.

Mum will not be happy given you've earned the Christmas pudding. You're right.

Global warming,
heliocentricism,
The reputational credit of science itself. the importance of things like space probes and large hadron colliders construction that are easily suppassed far more cheaply and economically in a matter of years (with lazers in a briefcase size box in cerns case) massive narcassistic scientific ideologic folleys such as bringing a box of rocks from the moon, and other questions that we do not need the answers to, cost a fortune and are completley beyond our capabilities other than to give credit to some scientist. Spend it on making a warp drive or curing cancer, wait a decade and achieve both for the same price.

Are you talking about occasions where scientists were simply mistaken or are you talking more about conspiracy theories?

Anything, really, anything that could have been great at the time, yet was superseded, people woke up, that sort of thing.

That has happened constantly as science has advanced, so finding the longest-lasting scientific theory that was eventually falsified would be rather difficult. Geocentrism might be a good one, though.
heliocentricism,
I presume you are talking about some older models of heliocentrism and not the modern one?

I think this is one of the better questions I've posted. There's a lot to it. There's undertones of our willingness to believe, and what we can prove otherwise.
Of course centuries ago we were susceptible to mixing faith with science, yet belief and science I think are long time friends, and will always be.
We have today the idea of the BBT, the big bang theory, and its not something we can prove yet deduce. With the advent of greater technology that could allow us to travel beyond our most distant planet, I am sure there will be new questions about how the universe works, and how we will present theories that are always going to be a step ahead of what we can prove.

Really?
You think a good question is one that doesn't make sense and people have to try to ask or guess what you mean?
That explains a lot.

I apologise for not mentioning you man.
I love your work.
Merry Xmas.
