Just as gay marriage was the foot int he door for polygamy and the dissolution of the meaningful family, "Intelligent Design" will be the foot in the door for the re4st of this anti-science claptrap.
' Or, as Galileo famously quoted 16th century Cardinal Caesar Baronius, "The Bible was written to show us how to go to heaven, not how the heavens go." '

Go here!!!!!!!!!!!!!............... http://www.echoesofenoch.com/hollowearth.htm
The Earth is hollow!!!!!!!!!!!
I read it on the Internet therefore it must be true!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Bible says so too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..........
Isa 40:22 "It is He who sits above the circle of the earth, and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers, who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, and spreads them out like a tent to dwell in."
.......and we all know that the Bible is the literal Word of God!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lets all get together and get this into our Godless Public School System as a viable alternative to what the Godless Geologists profess!!!!!!!!
Who's with me?
And now a word from the illustrious founder of the Hollow Earth Society:

If this dude wants to work out the mechanics of the solar system (or even the Earth-Luna system) in a truly geocentric frame of reference, he's welcome to do it. It's not impossible ... relativistic or classical mechanics certainly allow for it.
But it's a whole lot easier if you drop you frame of reference on the center of mass of whatever you're trying to model.

There's also no proof that the Earth rotates,Tell that to people who have to align inertial navigation systems. They actually depend on the earth's rotation to find North and East.

Meanwhile, Sungenis wants to make sure "people don't classify geocentrists with Flat Earthers. We don't believe that at all." Ahh, come on, Sungenis, if you're gonna be a kook, why not go for the whole enchilada?
To: orionblamblam
He says physics and the Bible show that the vastness of space revolves around us; that we're at the center of everything, on a planet that does not rotate. Interesting theory, but imprecise. "We're" not at the center of everything. I am at the center of everything. I call it my Karlcentric theory absolute truth.
Do you feel dizzy? If so, that's because I just made the whole universe spin around me and my chair seat. Weeeee!

Intelligent Design" will be the foot in the door for the re4st of this anti-science claptrap. This has nothing to do with Intelligent design. And neither do the flat-earthers or other nuts, for that matter.
Also, the bible does not suggest this. It was Aristotle, who's teachings the Catholic Church intertwined with its doctrines.

For several years the Web site of his Catholic Apologetics International (www.catholicintl.com) offered a $1,000 reward to anyone who could disprove geocentrism and prove heliocentrism (a sun-centered solar system). This website was the source of the slanderous allegations posted against John Calvin recently.

The Earth may revolve around the Sun, but it sure doesn't look that way.

Sungenis said: There just may be some other force propelling it, such as the pull of stars. By someone of the same ilk that would discount the influence of the planets in astrology...

I don't know whether the Earth is at the center of the Universe or not. But i do know that the Earth is rotating. Try flying west or east and note the effect on daylight.

This fellow would be right at home here amongst the anti-Es. He even uses the same language - demanding that scientists PROOOOOVE that the Earth rotates.

In a sense, the guy could be right. Movement through space-time is all relative, as Einstein pointed out. Okay, so say the earth stands still and the entire universe moves around it. Depending on your frame of reference, that could be a useful model. We often use it for astronomical charts. It's kind of like saying I didn't drive to the liquor store today, the whole universe moved and I stayed still. Egotistical, sure, but invalid, not from a scientific standpoint.

But what about Foucault's famous pendulum? Its plane of oscillation revolves every 24 hoursI haven't been able to oscillate in a 24 hour period since my last marriage.
