"Do you believe in the Ptolemaic or the Tycho model?"

Typical liberal's question!

Feelings don't matter. The ptolemaic model is what continues to be used today in all navigation, astronomic positioning, and even the programs that operate the positioning servos on all modern observatories. And it even works :o)
