Pro-Brownback, Anti-Heliocentrism???

I just read through it.While I am still undecided as to whether this is a spoof or not, and I've seen some pretty convincing spoofs in my life, Sisyphus does have a point in the following.

quote:

---

“I think NASA has proven that the earth moves through space. Intrasolar probes have to retarget to the new location of Terra when they’re sending information back.”

​

That’s a situation in which it’s mathematically convenient to consider the Earth as moving. But objects only move relative to other objects. You can easily allow that one object (the Earth) holds still, in accordance with Scripture and the empirical evidence of those of us on Earth. That NASA has decided to view the Earth as moving was their moral and mathematical decision, not an Absolute Fact.

Ok, bare with me for a moment. Just imagine the Earth being truly fixed while the rest of the universe revolves around the Earth. Stop it. Just suspend your disbelief for a second. Also, ignore the fact that there is nothing that we know of that would hold Earth in a fixed position. Just imagine that the Earth is truly fixed with everything else moving around it.The result would be just the same as if the Earth is orbiting the sun.I think this guy has a point... if you ignore everything we know about physics.Added by edit.By the way, this is my favorite one.

I am sorry, Sisyphus, but you are wrong. The Earth revolves around the Sun. Our Sun revolves around the center of our solar system. Our solar system is moving through space.

RAZD, didn't I say to ignore everything we know about physics? The author of that blog did exactly that, and because of it the fixed Earth makes perfect sense. Remember that Einsteinian and Newtonian physics are wrong and that the metric system is pure evil. Your proposed experiments use all of these.Enjoy
