Isn't heliocentrism a case of the pot calling the kettle black? I mean, the sun is not even the center of our galaxy, much less the center of the universe.
But then, Sol is the center of our solar system, and if the universe were made up of an infinite number of solar system tiles, it could happen. Come to think of it, if there are trillions of galaxies, each consisting of billions of solar systems, you might ask at what point exact duplication (tiling) become mathematically inevitable?
Unlikely, you say? At the quantum level, tiling is established fact.
A quark is a quark, of course, of course,
And no one can talk to a quark of course
That is, of course, unless the quark is the famous Mister Ed.
Maybe tiling would be better described as flavors, and you've got up, down, charm, strange, top, and bottom.
Just goes to show ya, though, that just because there's duplications and shortcuts doesn't mean there's not plenty of mystical qualities.
And if you can come up with a good one, you have discovered good Drabble! Up to down, top to bottom, charming and strange, for weird listeners such as yourself.
