Hmm... the Earth orbiting Saturn. Did he mean yesterday, or 5 billion years ago? Or do you believe that the Earth has always been here, since the dawn of time, orbiting our ever-existing sun? Sounds like a creationist idea to me.

You'll have to ask Ted, I'm not into catastrophism. I believe that it's at least on the order of millions of years ago, though, and certainly not "yesterday".

A few thousand years ago, more or less. Nobody is jumping up and down demanding that any of the variants of a Saturn thesis be taught as a fact in public schools at public expense, and a person could believe that the Earth was orbitting Saturn NOW and still make sense compared to evolutionists. Evolution stands everything we know about mathematics and probability theory on their heads.
