Is this thread for real? wow this garbage should be in the cesspool or pseudoscience
I believe in the heliocentric model because I have personally agreed with the calculations of the heliocentric model as opposed to the geocentric model, the Sun appears to rise in the East, and set in the West because the Earth is revolving around it....the moon which actually orbits the Earth doesn't behave the same way as the Sun
Actually the sun rises and sets because of the rotation of the earth, not the revolution.

The faith demanded to believe in this rotating, round Earth hypothesis is down-right ludicrous.
I can’t believe so many people have bought into it.
Do you see the Earth moving?
Not me.
I see the stars and the moon and the sun moving, but the Earth seems pretty still to me.
Looks like the crazies broke out of the mental hospital again! Wow I dont even know where to start, I didn't realize that there were people this deluded. Ever hear of relativity? or i suppose its a myth... Let me ask you, when you are in a car on the highway doing 60 mph, and the car next to you is going the same speed, is it moving? because out the window it looks like its still... Now if that car passes you, can u really tell whether it sped up or you slowed down? assuming you don't look at the speedometer or other objects or feel a change in velocity, then no you cant.
So let me ask you, how can you tell on earth, whether it is the starts that move or you? the example doesn't really fit since both move, but hopefully you get my point (though i doubt it)
You are on the earth! How exactly do you expect to see the earth move? if a mountain started moving away from you lol? come on you have to be insane, if everything is moving then you cant tell, in a car going 60 mph, the passengers, the magazines on the back seat, and even your cup of coffee in the cup holder are all going 60 mph, but they seem still don't they?
You realize that if the earth does not rotate, then the sun moves around the entire earth in 24 hours? lets see its 93 million miles away, if thats the radius of an orbit, the circumference of that circle is 2 x pi x radius
so roughly 600 million miles in a day?
Not to mention that a larger body orbiting around a smaller one completely defies gravity... you do believe in gravity right? or is it propaganda from the heathens? maybe its gods hand pulling everything down towards the center of earth? But hell is at the center of earth of course, taken literally, so god is in hell? No he is in the clouds in heaven (hes careful to avoid the airplanes) and that means hes pushing things away from him, including you!!! I thought he wanted to pull everyone toward him, he is pushing us all towards hell!!!
Seriously guys, this is an all-time low
