Journal zedmelon's Journal: Eclipse My Ass 6
The world is flat.
There are a few dozen or so infidels across the land who are planting seeds of an appaling fabrication, saying the world is not the center of the universe but rather it orbits the sun.
Ludicrous!

He was about to be burned at the stake in his astronaut suit when he claimed he'd send a monster to eat the sun. Everyone mocked him until it happened,
