"Ah, well. It hardly matters. While the IDers and the Geocentrists mioght well triumph, and the meek may well inheirit the Earth... thos who abandon such childish belief systems will conquer the universe soon enough."
While there are doubtless uninformed adherents on both sides of the issue, an informed geocentrist understands much more about the issues and why the concepts are unprovable.
"Maybe we'll leave the Earth and its culture of whack-jobism as sort of a zoo. It'll be entertaining to watch y'all try to build surface-to-space interceptors when y'all have to reject the rotation of the Earth."
Statements like this show just how uninformed most heliocentrists really are and support my point above.
'Surface-to-space' intercepts *are* calculated assuming a stationary earth.

BWAAAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!!!!!!!
Yeah. I'll tell my co-workers that they can stop using POST, then, shall I? Maybe we can stop all the foolishness of launching low inclination orbital missions from near the equator and polar missions from higher latitudes and launching everything in an easterly direction.
Hell, maybe we'll finally stop using the rocket equation to calculate delta V. I always did think that it was always too restrictive.
I think we can safely declare the oxymoron-of-the-thread contest officially over.

You're yanking our chain. LOL
Either Robert is posing as a Freeper, or he's found a goupie that parrots his every word. Either way, it's very sad.
Codswallop! Why do you think we have launch windows?
Also the Earth turns underneath the satellite once it is in orbit. Take a good look at a ground track.
