BOOK 2. THE BATH SCHOOL. N. LEVASHOV'S «SVETL BROOM» IN A. KHATYBOV'S «BATH SCHOOL» AND A LABOUR SPADE

Book 2. The Bath School. Introduction, or the wish in the reality 14 still officially declared that this was a fraud, since" no apparatus can convey the sound of a human voice. " "It just can not be..." A familiar song! 16. But the same Edison , April 22, 1887, said: "Personally, I am not engaged in the invention of flying ships, as I prefer to devote my time to objects of commercial value, and, at best, an airship will be just an amusing toy. " 17. The astrophysicist Zoeller (who died in Leipzig in 1882) showed great courage when he spoke publicly for the truth of the paranormal. "The great men of science" reacted in a way that became very common in the scientific struggle – they declared him crazy. Simply, cheap, convenient and nothing to be proved, either! 18. 1. In 1885, when they decided to build the first railway in Bavaria , the church and scientific medical "luminaries" stated that it was, firstly, "the machinations of the devil", and secondly, they oppose it, because "iron roads, if they can really be built, cause serious damage to the health of people, because such a rapid movement would cause concussion of the brain in passengers, and in those who will look at moving trains – dizziness and mental illness!

Such statements can hardly be considered serious scientific arguments against facts... 22. The great chemist Lavoisier together with Paris Academy of Sciences in the late 18th century "knew" that: "meteorites are a fairy tale, because after all, it is clear to the child that there can be no stones in the sky! Therefore, they can not fall from the sky... And the fact that they were found warm – nonsense! Just someone warmed them up!.. "Similar" objections "are not uncommon now.
