Earth: Flat As A Pancake
The earth is as flat as a pancake, and if you don't believe it
you are just another dirty atheist. At least that is what Sheik
Abdel-Azi Ibn Baaz, the supreme religious authority of Saudi
Arabia, says. The blind cleric made this pronouncement over two
years ago.
It seems that this cleric hasn't caught up with the pope,
science-wise. John Paul II reversed the Roman Catholic
condemnation of Galileo three years ago, in 1992.
