Well . . . except the geocentric solar system . . . that one had to go out the window. And boy, those eliptical orbits really caused quite a stir. Hey, at least we can hang on to the fact that the Earth is flat.

The Bible did not make that claim. Furthermore, at a time when people pictured the Earth resting on the shoulders of giants or the backs of turtles, the Bible stated that the Earth was suspended upon nothing; i.e. floating in space. The shape of the Earth is also described as circular or spherical. (The Hebrew word in question could be used for either shape.)

How about beating up on Christians for what we actually believe rather than what you think we believe?
