Oh. Wow.

That one about the sun's "circuit" is really embarrassing. I don't think I've ever seen a more laughably and ludicrously forced example in one of these lists.

Just look at the entire Psalm. In verse 2 it refers to day and night.

So, the psalmist proceeds to give a specific example of how the heavens daily ("day by day" and "night by night") speak and show the glory of God, and his choice is to (cryptically) cite the Sun's 226 million year orbit around the Milky Way?!

Really?! That's supposed to be a phenomena which is readily apparent and visibly proclaimed by the heavens "day by day"?! Even though a given day only represents 1/8,249,000,000th of the "circuit," which movement is visibly undetectable (but rather only inferred from theory) even today?!?!

Riiiiiiiiiiiiight.

What kind of desperation would drive someone to even cite such a facially stupid example?

What kind of desperation drives you to spew your hatred and self-loathing here day by day?
