Thread Name: BS: Gravity solved?
Subject: RE: BS: Gravity solved?
I have no idea what I want Keith. You name a historian, you produce one quote from a whole book, you then make an assertion about Bruno being condemned for his views of the divinity of Christ, whereas your chosen quote from your chosen historian says

"It was probably mainly as a magician that Bruno was burned,"

You ignore Musket's pointing out that the said historian's date of death fails to meet your criteria for credibility on another thread, and in her defence you post a link to an article which says amongst other things:

"Scholarship has greeted Yates's views on Bruno and Hermeticism with considerable scepticism while less specialised literature continues to repeat her findings thanks undoubtedly to the greater diffusion of English language literature as much as to the outstanding clarity of her style."

You show no understanding of what Hermeticism actually is, and no evidence of your attempts to find out.

So, quite frankly, I don't think that I do want anything else from you, that is all that is necessary.
