Wow. The cognitive dissonance necessary!!!

Ok, what is the actual mass of the Sun? The actual mass of the Earth? The actual mass of the Moon?

Please show your work whereby your derive that gravity MUST drag the Sun around the Earth (if indeed you have settled upon Gravity as the mechanism).

And no, Geocentricism is not a threat to my “worldview”. I would have to think it had even a modicum of credibility in order to consider it a threat. I find it very amusing, like someone standing out in the rain insisting it isn't raining and they are not getting wet.

They aren't known. They are assumed based on the formulas and the theory.

Did you put Saturn in a big bathtub to make sure it really is lighter than water and that it really does float?

Apparently we can assume that you would put as much effort into ridiculing someone who believed in the Easter Bunny then.
