no1tovote4 said:There have been many theories in science that simply were wrong even though they were believed to be correct by scientists in the past. To simply say that they weren't scientists isn't an argument it is simply denial. We say something and you say, "no it isn't" but it still doesn't make your assertion true.
What about Ptolemy's Geocentricity? It was proven to be untrue but Ptolemy was certainly a scientist and was not basing his theory in Faith but in observable phenomena.
The early greeks were not practicing science as I have described the beginning of science, and the modern meaning of the term, with Bacon et all in several posts here. And I'll state one more time that observations alone do not constitute science.
