(Of 12^th Century Science)

O’Reilly’s astute argument for the evidence of a higher power: 

“I say listen, sun goes up, sun goes down.  Tide comes in, tide comes out.  There's no miscommunication.”

- (5/9/2007)

“Tide goes in, tide goes out.  Never a miscommunication.”

- (1/4/2011)

“Sun comes up, the sun goes down.  The tide comes in, the tide goes out.  It always happens.  Never a miscommunication.”

- (1/5/2011)

“How'd the Moon get there?  Look, you pinheads who attacked me for this, you guys are just desperate.  How'd the Moon get there?  How'd the Sun get there?  How'd it get there?  Can you explain that to me?  How come we have that, and Mars doesn't have it?  Venus doesn't have it.  How come?  Why not?  How'd it get here?”

- Bill O’Reilly, (01/26/11)

Well, Mars actually has two moons.  The Sun comes up and goes down frequently yes… because the earth rotates around the Sun while also revolving on its own axis.  The gravitational pull of the moon controls our tides world wide. 

Believe it or not, if you read this information from the elementary school text books it can all be found in, you might abandon your “Can’t explain it, God did it!” views on our ever understandable universe. 

America was founded during the Enlightenment when men came to the realization that the entire universe can be understood using reason, and that the “Old-World” crutch of religion was only necessary for matters of personal faith.  It’s not that the intellectual faculties of man have been reversed in the last 240 years.  It’s that narrow comprehension of proven physical science was rejected at public forums in the 18^th Century, instead of being sponsored by right-wing television networks.
