I came across this sign in Wallace Idaho on June 6, 2009. I’m pretty sure it was made in jest. Wallace is a pretty place but the center of the universe?

But then again the Christian Church in 1633 put Galileo on trial for heresy because he basically said the church was wrong about the belief that the sun revolves around the earth. Of course, they found him guilty and put him on house arrest for the last nine years of his life They then went about destroying as many of his books and other writings as they could find. That was SOP for all those who questioned their official document called the bible.

In 1992, after 360 years the church finally admitted that he was right after all.
