Jeff, the giant churches in most of the major cities were built after the Roman Warm Period and hence they were cool in the summer and warm in the winter. During the Medieval Warm Period people were already set in their ways and everyone wore hats. During the Little Ice Age people would go to church because it was much warmer inside those large stone buildings and many people's body heat keeping the air reasonably warm which you couldn't get at home. This probably gave Christian religion (Roman Catholic of course though in the middle east it was Greek Orthodox.) On entering a church men would doff their hats as a sign of reverence and women would cover their heads for the same reason. But these habits were as a direct result of the Roman Warm Period which occurred during the time of Christ. |

Time and space weren't understood and writing it down in ancient Greek which still cannot be accurately translated presented a problem to modern interpretations. Science has absolutely NO guesses as to where the matter and energy came from to create the Universe. The motions of the galaxies and the fact that the Universe is accelerating rather than decelerating means that the Big Bang Theory is balderdash. Real science has no more idea of how our Universe came to be than any of the religions. So pretending that science can be used to interpret anything other than the here and now is silly. |
