"You will note that the explanation employs a STILL sun and the linear
(tangential) motion of the moon only."
The only difference is the "origin" of the motion not the relative speeds or
directions. In geocentric mechanics all movement is by the sun and moon. In
a-centric is due to the combination of the moons w-e orbit earth?s spin Counter
clockwise spin and earth/ moon counter clockwise orbit around the sun. It is
this "observational equivalence" that has allowed the A-centrist to get away
with it. Again the only difference is the origin of the movement not the
relative speeds or positions.

Gary,
It is quite easily explained in both a-centric and geo-centric cosmologies the
only difference between the two is the "origin" of the motion not the results
of the motions or mat involved in predicting. This is because both must account
for the same observed effects. The math for those assumed motions is easily
obtained even on a-centric web sites. Aha, we don?t accept a-centric
cosmologies, true, but the math that describes the relative velocities of the
objects in the sky are only different from geocentric cosmologies in the origin
of motion not their effects, this given the assumed distances, which I believe
to be relatively accurate. Otherwise, I?m not sure what is in question.

Allen, I don't know how "easy" it is to find the math on acentric websites. I
know I was only informed of it during a long venture onto the BABB and many
painful pages later. The link to the explanation to which I refer is here:

You will note that the explanation employs a STILL sun and the linear
(tangential) motion of the moon only. This is an entirely different mechanism
than what is allowed in the geocentric view. What is important in ToSeek's
explanation is the simple linear motion of the moon. We geocentrists have to
explain this somehow using the difference in tangential velocities between two
MOVING objects (the sun and moon).
This is what is in question. It is, as I said before, not a question of
relative motions.
By the way, what's the deal with the question marks used for apostrophes? Is
there a meaning to this practice?
Sincerely,
Gary Shelton
