consequently discovered to be false. This is to show that just because
most people believe something, doesn't mean its true.
- Flat earth
- Sea monsters
- Bloodletting
- Leeching
- Earth at the center of the universe
- Heavier bodies fall faster than light ones
- The world was circled by a Dome that kept water out.
- Slavery justified by divine right
- The stars were lights in the sky put there by god
- Gods lived in the mountains, then clouds, then just out of sight of telescopes, now they live in the supernatural realm.
- Special creation (Adam and Eve etc)
- Race (blacks, whites, etc)
- Smoking
