co-authors are other participants quoted. I haven't changed content of thr replies, but quoted it part by part in my replies, interspersing each reply after relevant part. Sometimes I have also changed the order of replies with my retorts, so as to prioritate logical/topical over temporal/chronological connexions. That has also involved conflating more than one message. I have also left out mere insults.

Heschmeyer is Right, But Could Have Cited Me, and Also Been Geocentric

If you had been willing to acknowledge some kind of intellectual debt to me, you could have made an argument easier than by the Chinese room.
You touched on computers not doing math as a person, even a mathematically challenged person, does math.
You could have stated from some of my blog posts, that a computer no more understands arithmetic than an abacus does so.
You could also have stated that computers are unable to actually do language, also from my blogs. In Swedish, the word "uppståndelse" literally means to "stand up" (as to etymology) but it denotes (by its normal usage) two different things. In commotions people stand up from chairs. In resurrections people stand up from graves. Commotions are statistically more common than resurrections, and you can guess what Bing on FB did to a Swedish fellow Catholic's post about the object of the Feast of Easter.
Equally, in Spanish, "precioso" and "preciosa" originally meant exactly what it means in French or English. Statistically today, it more often translates as "funny" (like a child posing a funny question getting a comment like "eres precioso" ...). There was another occasion a poem about the Blessed Virgin. She was described as preciosa. You can guess what Bing on FB did to that. I think I noted that one on my blogs somewhere too.
As for ChatGPT, that's about the same technology as Poe on Quora. I posed a question for which as yet I have no real answers, I posed it to Sungenis and so far got no answer, namely about an occasion when Baronius is supposed to have said, and become the source of, the words Galileo anonymously cited to Cristina of Tuscany. Now, the problem is, the Poe actually offered a follow up question:
Can you provide sources that support the Baronius attribution?
Can you provide specific quotes from Baronius's writings supporting this?
And these phrases come up from "Annales ecclesiastici":
“The sacred writers had no intention to teach us the nature of the heavens, but rather to lead us to the knowledge of God and our salvation.”
“It is not the office of the Holy Scriptures to teach us the natural sciences, but rather to instruct us in divine truths.”
Which I search and then find only in Galileo's letter. Or a direction to St. Augustine. But not to Baronius.
5:10 A physicalist, obviously does not believe in any God who could perform a Geocentric universe or any angels that could perform Tychonian orbits or parallaxes / aberrations as real proper movements.
Do you have any independent argument for Heliocentrism / Modern Cosmology than:
a) Physicalism
b) Deism, which makes God and beginning of Universe a somewhat notable exception to a Physicalism that otherwise holds?
Please note, appealing to "Earth has the smaller mass compared to the Sun, it therefore makes sense that Earth orbits the Sun" presumes there is no immaterial and mightier than matter beings (God, angels) capable of overriding the raw product of gravity and inertia, both of which have to do with masses and their interaction.
