Scientific errors in the Bible

---

There is no evidence to falsify geocentrism. There is no evidence in favor of heliocentrism.

Which theory best explains all the evidence, though? Using the geocentric theory, we can predict solar and lunar 'motion', and the constellations along the ecliptic are constant. All of these are also explained by the heliocentric theory. This is because (as you suggest) the relationships among sun, Earth, stars, and moon are consistent as far as we can tell even if we make no assumptions about which bodies are moving in reference to others.The same cannot be said of planetary motion, which was the anomaly in the geocentric theory which finally invalidated it. Heliocentric theory alone makes consistently verifiable predictions about planetary motion.------------------

GC is physically indistinguishable from HC.

Not if you're trying to predict planetary motion. I already noted that the GC model was undone (despite the 'confirmation' of its core hypotheses) due to its lack of utility in this area. Forget the motion of earth/sun/planets/stars. Just look at the positions of the planets at certain times and the way these positions are better predicted by the HC model. Does general relativity do away with empirical evidential inference?------------------
