I have summed up your other points into: "There exists a measurable ether, ergo the Earth cannot be moving." Regards, Regner Trampedach Well done. that is simple concise short and true if I could replace one word.. ergo the earth need not be moving.. Nothing is certain in theoretical science, I can but hypothesise. Only in religion/scripture would I dare to be certain of truth.

Dear Philip Madsen Your name sounds pretty Danish? Your first point doesn't qualify in support of geocentrism. Science is by no means democratic, but that doesn't mean that a lack of main-stream support makes a theory correct. The way you rephrased my question, makes your first point acceptable, but I am not interested in that question. I am already spending valuable time on this so you don't have to prove further to me that I should give the issue attention. I have summed up your other points into: "There exists a measurable ether, ergo the Earth cannot be moving."
