Ah, the old reliable 'appeal to ridicule' fallacy.

How appropriate that it comes from you.

How odd. I can only assume that you are unfamiliar with the concept of irony.

As for your question in post 161 -- "What else do you accept as 'fact' when there is no factual basis thereof?" -- am I correct in assuming as well that you are unfamiliar with inductive and deductive reasoning?

No, it's coming from anyone with common sense. Do you really think you are some guru who has the ultimate answers to questions about the universe, but the entire industrialized world is oppressing your divine wisdom? And I mean a modern industrialized world that routinely uses the modern physics that you reject on semantic grounds. Why should you be taken seriously by professionals who successfully exploit what works in reality? I don't see you using your geocentric model to any extent except to get attention on these threads.
