Religion and Knowledge

Galileo was charged with heresy because of defending heliocentric model proposed by Copernicus, which The Earth and the planets go around the sun. In 1992 the Pope John Paul II closed the Galileo case recognizing the mistakes from those who condemned him.
But in 2015 after 451 years from having been born, there is still who refuse this theory.
"The Earth is quiet, doesn't move" Sheij Bandar Al Jaibari says according to religious documents which he has, he is a muslim cleric. According to his theory a plane can't never arrive to its destiny if The Earth moves in the same direction.
These statements have provoked a chain reaction in social networks with hard criticism and making fun, according to Al Arabiya News Channel.
Making a source of knowledge of the religion is an authentic madness and an aberration.
