Toolism, the problem with being such a patronising b'stard is you can't tell when other people are taking the mickey, like I am now, just in case you don't understand.

Sorry to have to tell you this, but they are right. The earth revolves around the sun.

Ah, a question like this always brings the America-haters out into the light. Of course, there is some metaphorical truth to the question...anyone who denies the influence of American culture around the world is an idiot. "Coca-cola," an American icon, is the second most widely spoken word in the world. (Number one is "okay.") Media organizations around the world often report what is happening in America, whether or not their take on it is favorable. It's not American arrogance which causes these things to happen. (Not that there isn't arrogance in America...though it pales in comparison to France). It would seem the world is fascinated with the United States. Of course, the America haters would have to learn a bit of real history to understand why this is so...but if they want to attribute it only to arrogance, that's their own arrogant prerogative.

Fact: World revovles around Bilderberg. (go for it)
False: as you did a question answering it, Dude.
North America, Central America or South America?
United States of America? Difficult.
There are life outside of USA skirts. Specially in India and Russia. USA is just a sandbox of bigboys mentioned above.
World revolves around savage industrialization in China; Alternative fuels in Brazil; Minerals, quite precious stones in Africa; Petroleum in MiddleEast, always around money. Around powerful "financial industries" that commands war, countries colapses, and so on.
All those entities are a puppet master and may puppet, "THE STAR" is Who will get all the blame and will be their hands to execute the dirty job. USA is just the dog guard.
See through the Smoke, Dude, see beyond!

Looking into the Bible, I'd say it revolves around Jerusalem. I live in America, but it's Jehovah's kingdom I belong to. I'm just visiting for now.

Some of the politcians in Washigton must think the earth revolves around America. Otherwise they wouldn't do some of the stupid things they do. But really all of the planets of the solar system, the Earth included, revolve around the Sun. Earth's orbit takes one year to complete.

actually, according to relativity, ANY arbitrary point can be chosen to be the center of the universe with EVERYTHING else orbiting around it. so yes, you could feasably state that the world (and the universe) revolves around a specific point in america (me, for example) and then you could mathematically prove that it is so. the only reason anyone ever went with the heliocentric theory in the first place (which we now consider debunked as well) is because the math is simpler

The world may not revolve around America but Tony Bliar (not misspelled!) thinks it does.

You must be an American. So many Americans pissing on fellow Americans, seems like a new sport.
