Thanks for the interesting post.

Few modernists realize that in medieval cosmology the center was as far from Heaven as possible - which is why medievals like Dante placed Hell in the center of the Earth.

That's really interesting, I never came across that concept before. Makes sense that the center would be the furthest (under pre-Copernicus cosmology).

Boy, I've really missed out on the Classics. When i think of all the crap I learned in High School, it's a wonder I can think at all. ;-)
