Hyper evolution in the bible

simple Now this I have got to hear. If the sun stood still in the sky do you understand the problem involved with this?

simple Ok since the sun moving across the sky is due to the rotation of the earth then the sun stopping in the sky for any amount of time whatever is actually due to the earth ceasing rotation. For arguements sake,say that the earth at the latitude of the middle east moves at around 350 miles per hour,which is not that hard to imagine since the eqauator moves in excess of 1000 mph,that is 25,000 miles around the middle of the globe of the earth in a 24 hour period.Now we have the scenario wherein the earth moving at 350 miles per hour is stopped.However,the occupants of said earth are still travelling at 350 miles per hour as well as trees,mountains,rivers, oceans and you get the general idea of the catastrophe ensuing.Imagine being in a car travelling at 350 miles per hour and this gigantic hand stops the car instantly.If you had the presemce of mind to wear your seat belt you have now been cleaved in two by that beltas well as doing an art deco splash through the dashbaord windshield and on into the road ahead.Not a pretty picture you agree?Hopefully this clears up the issue.

But I realize now that these people were not in science; they didn’t understand it. They didn’t understand technology; they didn’t understand their time.

simple The motion of the sun across the sky is a result of the earth rotating so a sun that is motionless must be a result of the halting of this rotation. There is no way to turn it that would maintain the rotation necessary ro prevent the disaster I outlined.If you were to introduce a motion that could do so {say by shifting rotation of axial centers towards the equator} then you have introduced an additional motion beyond the mere stopping of the earth.You have now stopped rotation about the poles of the earth and translated it to a new position that introduces additonal forces that increase the damage.There is quite simply no means of accomplishing this.You may experiment with your lamp and tennis ball by taking a felt and putting a mark on the ball and then prove this to yourself.This way you need not take my word for it and you can have empirical evidence to show you the facts of the matter.This message has been edited by sidelined, Thu, 2005-09-01 10:08 AM
