You can find videos that say the earth is flat, but this video didn’t make that claim.

If relativity doesn’t contradict Copernicus, does it prove Copernicus? I think not.

The claim isn’t that the planets orbit the earth. The claim is that the Sun orbits the earth from the earth’s perspective. And since you have no fixed absolute position to measure any movement by, it’s all relative to what position you choose to assume is fixed.

Study physics much? I think not.

Friendly advice: Go to the nearest junior college and take math and physics until they are pouring out of your ears. THEN you'll understand quite a bit more about it. But you'll have to not be so resistant to learning the material, or you won't get through the first class.

I'm not saying this to dis you, but it's clear you don't understand the simplest concepts. And it's all because you haven't studied the material, which leads you to make ridiculous comments like your first claim above. Do it. You won't be sorry. We all had to do it. Cheers!
