, 23:31, February 11, 2010→Stop.. wait: don't see the point of deleting good info on galaxies
:::::: I'm fine with including historical facts about opinions of scientists and others. For example, an entry could say that it was the consensus of scientists in the 1970s that the world was becoming dangerously over-populated to the extent that mass starvation was likely (the widely taught [[population bomb]]), or that that until the 1990s it was the consensus of scientists that life existed in outer space, justifying the expenditure of billions of taxpayer dollars to find it. But science is plainly not resolved by consensus, as those two examples illustrate.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 17:28, 11 February 2010 (EST)

:::::: Historical facts about the work of astronomers was deleted. What do you want to do, include the opinion of those 1920 scientists who did not believe that there were galaxies outside the Milky Way? If so, just add it. I just don't see the point of deleting good info on galaxies. If you think that it is wrong, explain why it is wrong. I don't see how the discovery of galaxies had anything to do with atheism or liberal politics. [[User:RSchlafly|RSchlafly]] 18:31, 11 February 2010 (EST)
