Dr. Jones, et.al.,
Concerning Joshua 10:12-13, I would also submit here that a sudden stopping
of the earth would entail a few heliocentric "facts" to be set aside
temporarily. Like, why didn't all humans go flying off the earth when it
was stopped? Or why didn't the atmosphere give us a deadly "tidal wave"
upon this sudden stoppage? Or, why didn't the suddenly absent centripetal
force not cause all humankind to be squished by the gravity of the earth?
Sincerely,
Gary Shelton

around at different rates). To make them APPEAR to stop, God would actually
have to have INCREASED their speeds. And His command to them to stop would
have thus been ignored.

God. However what I can not conclude on is do the stars move around a fixed
earth or does the earth rotate clockwise and the stars are fixed and the sun
moon and planets rotate at different speeds according to their distance from
the earth? I feel that the earth rotates clockwise which gives us the
elusion that the stars move around the earth.I may be wrong.
