    Die Kirche sagt, dass die Erde flach ist, aber ich weiß, dass es rund ist. denn ich habe den Schatten auf dem Mond gesehen und ich habe mehr Vertrauen in den Schatten als in die Kirche.

    Gereja berkata bahwa bumi itu datar, tetapi saya tahu bahwa bumi itu bulat. karena saya telah melihat bayangan di bulan dan saya lebih percaya pada bayangan daripada di gereja.
