Copernicus presented scientific evidence that he was correct. This guy does not.

My point is merely that Copernicus was correct, but his audience "knew" of a different "reality". There's no way we can tell if this is something similar.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

My point is merely that Copernicus was correct, but his audience "knew" of a different "reality". There's no way we can tell if this is something similar.

...and we all know that reality is different than his "reality" shared by others with a thin grasp on existence.

One ("reality") can hit with a methaphorical bat, Star Trekkish pseudo-science, and the threat of eternal damnation. The other one (reality) will actually hit you with a bat, you'll hurt, you'll bleed, and then you'll cry.

Copernicus happened to hit reality when playing with the "reality" of his happy math equations. ("oooh the universe is perfect! circles are perfect! orbits must all be circles!!!111")
