father ernetti's chronovision

Father Pellegrino Maria Ernetti (1925-1994) was a Benedictine priest, scientist, and world-class authority on "archaic" music (pre-Christian to 10th century A.D.). He claimed to have yoked quantum physics to the occult arts to construct a time-machine-- the chronovisor. He claimed to have used the chronovisor to watch Christ dying on the cross.
"Everything about the life of Father Pellegrino Ernetti suggests that this Italian Benedictine priest-scientist was a man of integrity and would not have created a hoax about his work on the chronovisor--a camera that allegedly could tune into the past or future and take pictures. Venice-based Father Ernetti (1925-1994) was an authority on archaic music, a scholar in Greek and Latin, a sought-after exorcist, a confidant of the influential, and an object of questioning by the Vatican and NASA. His work on the so-called chronovisor stemmed from his time at Father Gemelli's electroacoustical laboratory at the Catholic University in Milan from 1952.

i'm bored . . . :(

Dude, I wish everyone would just get over the middle ages already! The US isn't the same as it was when it was founded, can't you figure that Galileo is not longer the example to tout in the Catholic Church's attitude towards science?

Galileo was hardly a paragon of virtue. Actually he was an awful person and his own worst enemy. He wanted his findings published when he wanted as he wanted, not because he was right, but because he was Galileo.

Ameesh,

Dont confuse hating science with religious conviction. They are not the same. AFAIK there is no prohibition against using umbillical cord blood. If they hated science, that would be banned too.

"Get over the middle ages already"? Oh yea! If it wasn't for the Catholic faith we would be easily 200 years more advance in the sciences then we are now. What? We live in a heliocentric universe?? through him in jail! We all now the Earth is the center of the Universe. Who cares what type of man Galileo was, that makes as must sense as someone making an argument for not taking basic math because Albert Enstien was horrible at it. If I remember correctly you were the guys that were burning/killing people for expressing ideas that were OH NO! against the ideas of the time.

Need some current day examples? Stem cells research, cloning, and genetic research.
