)A thousand years ago everybody KNEW the Earth was the centre of the universe. Five hundred years ago everybody KNEW the Earth was flat..." Poor analogy.
Humphreys' equations fairly well prove that the Earth is the center of the universe, give or take a few hundred thousand miles, but there has never been any serious belief that the Earth was flat held by any that navigated it's surface. No serious hiker could ever have held such a belief, since from as small a mountan as 3000 feet the curvature is plainly visible. School teacher talk is insipidly ignorant.
