One of the dangers of AI use is that it can feed delusions. MarkE may
be slipping into this effect.

My guess is that people need to be trained to get AI to give them
relevant information without falling into the trap of having AI tell you
what you want to believe.

There ought to be ways to ask AI for information without triggering the
AI to second guess what you want as an answer. We seemed to have
trained AI to tell us what we want to hear.

You really should keep that in mind when you try to use AI to support
your claims about the Catholic Church.

You need to keep in mind that Google offers links to support their
summary, and it is what you come up with that always has fallen short
and added to your delusions. You can check out the links to see if
Google is misinterpreting the situation. I have found them to be in
error in the past, but not this case. It is why you have always had to
run from reality. You kept looking for junk to support your delusions
and got lied to about heliocentrism never being condemned and waffling
about the difference between formal heresy and heresy when all you need
to consider is that it was a heresy charge in both cases. Wiki, the geocentrists, and anti geocentrist Catholics claimed that it was a
formal heresy charge in 1616, but that it was only written up as
"heresy" the second time Galileo faced the charge. The heresy was
clearly defined in both cases. All the Church fathers adhered to
Biblical geocentrism. Waffling about their writing about the universe
being geocentric was not teaching geocentrism does not mean that they
were not geocentrists. Just like the authors of the Bible the church
fathers wrote about things as they understood them. Just like the
authors of the Bible they were wrong about some things, and didn't have
the faintist notion about others. What did the Pope claim about the Big
Bang and Bibilical writing?
