The building is in Boston, and Thomas Paine wrote Common Sense in Philidelphia.

Θώθ has both upper case and lower case Greek characters, and a diacritic above the ω.

Throughout antiquity, Greek had only a single uppercase form of each letter. It was written without diacritics and with little punctuation.

I suppose it would have been written ΘΩΘ.

Because planets only exist in the solar system.

They attempted to create a definition for an “exoplanet” but that never passed, so aggregations of matter orbiting stars outside the solar system have no official name.

The IAU resolution (pdf) that they voted on does not include what comes after “More generally”. The page that you link to is apparently the source and is not official.

Pluto has completed millions of orbits around the sun.

At the time of the IAUs release of the definition of a planet, Neptune had not completed an orbit since its discovery, and yet they still called it a planet. Clearly, this weird and arbitrary statement that you have put forth did not matter.

How many planets are in orbit around the sun? 8
How many planets are in the entire universe? 8, because a planet has to orbit the sun.

Yes, he was against slavery but did not believe in equality. That is consistent with him being a racist, just not as racist as some people.

Lincoln was also a noted politician and liar

Is that supposed to make me think that he would have done good? Trump is a politician and a liar, should we believe that he is going to do some great good any day now?

Lincoln was racist. I doubt the person that said the following would have done things significantly different.

I will say then that I am not, nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races—that I am not nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will for ever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together there must be the position of superior and inferior, and I as much as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race.
