Is that why God said “Come let us REASON together”? (Not “believe”)

Very few people in the Bible or otherwise get the slap up the side of the head treatment like Doubting Thomas, "Because you have seen me, you have believed".

I've always thought proving Biblical details; the ark, the shroud, etc. may be a worthy pursuit in the interest of science or history. But you're not going to prove God unless you destroy faith in the process.

This film and geocentric-ism is fascinating. In scanning the web probably the most interesting tidbit I found is the question about Polaris. I'm not familiar enough with dark matter, expanding mircowaves, or hot and cold regions of the universe, but I do know the North Star.

I also know it's position relative to my view (and the chimney on my house) doesn't move anywhere close to 20 degrees. If it moves at all from winter to summer, I can't imagine it being more than 2 or 3, maybe 5 degrees absolute tops.

So if the relation between Earth and Polaris, more than 400 light years apart is so stable our seasons has to be the Sun. Changing what? It's orbit around the Earth?

Like I said. Fascinating!
