This is how it works. Every week I will post five statements, some or will be true, some or all will be false. To play just quote this post and state which statements you think are true and false. At the end of each week the person with the most correct answers wins a million dollars!*

STATEMENT ONE:
"Rotovia cannot fly to the United States because he threatened the life of President Bush during is high school graduation speech"

STATEMENT TWO:
"An excommunicated Catholic cannot be beautified or cannonised"

STATEMENT THREE:
"The Earth is at the very centre of the universe"

STATEMENT FOUR:
"Suddam Hussein's Iraq never possesed WMDs"

STATEMENT FIVE:
"There are 1,435 stars visable with the naked eye, from Europe, during summer, on a clear night"

See, it's easy. ;)

STATEMENT ONE: That'd be hilarious were it true, but I suspect flippancy. FALSE

STATEMENT TWO: Sounds about right. TRUE

STATEMENT THREE: This sounds like a trick question, as if he's about to turn around and say "TRUE, If you're a MORMON!" But I'll play along and say FALSE.

STATEMENT FOUR: TRUE and FALSE simultaneously thanks to the gift of doublethink. Iran is the enemy. Iran has always been the enemy.

STATEMENT FIVE: Sounds like another trick. I'll say TRUE because there are probably at least that many.

...

1. False, I guess.

2. False - Joan of Arc was first excommunicated for heresy, then she was burnt at stake... then beatified, and finally canonized (the excommunication having been reversed by then, of course).

3. False, though some trick is possible here... :)

4. False. It wasn't laughing gas that was used in Halabja.

5. True, although that is no more than a guess.

STATEMENT ONE:
"Rotovia cannot fly to the United States because he threatened the life of President Bush during is high school graduation speech"
seeming false, because if they went to that length, then doubt internet usage to worldwide contacts.

STATEMENT TWO:
"An excommunicated Catholic cannot be beautified or cannonised"
various examples can be made, but mostly this, Catholic church never seems to stay constant with its rules.
STATEMENT THREE:
"The Earth is at the very centre of the universe"
at present understanding false. Universe has infinate distance, but lots of void, so there is not center, just as there is no middle of infinate.
STATEMENT FOUR:
"Suddam Hussein's Iraq never possesed WMDs"
false, chemical warfare that it used in the past
STATEMENT FIVE:
"There are 1,435 stars visable with the naked eye, from Europe, during summer, on a clear night"
true and false. I would say it depends on what part of europe you are at, in the city, much less, down a deep mine shaft during the daytime or night time, maybe more.

1True and False you can but what happens to you is out of your control

2If they are excomunicated there is no reason not to be recommunicated/unexcommunicated and so if they do/perform miracles why not?=False

3The earth is not the very centre.=False

4Iraq did have WMD's America gifted them!=False

5Its safer to say False because there could be more and there could be less.but if there are more then there is that number plus.Stupid vague Question!=True
