So, you’ve proven conclusively that St. Augustine and the Venerable Bede did not understand that there were continents, and people, on the opposite side of the Earth from them. Congratulations.
Newsflash: scientific knowledge increases over time. I’ll wager St. Augustine didn’t know about the ice on Mars, or the internal combustion engine. Yet they exist, as do continents and people on the “other” side of the world. And as that scientific knowledge grows, we may even come to find that God is larger than we want Him to be, and that he created other life elsewhere.
If it is heresy, as you accuse, to believe in something not known by the ancients, you’d best get off the internet. I do wonder what they would have thought about your ability to send words instantaneously across huge distances, and have them appear to the eyes of people who don’t even know you. Sounds kind of diabolical, actually.
