Allen D I'd ask you if the rubber band will twist except that I have no doubt that it would end up in the same basket with your failure to address the matter of whether the red 1 kg mass or the green 1 kg mass would be in front at perihelion; whether the Moon would rotate on its axis subsequent to the tragic disappearance of its primary at superior conjunction (or indeed at any other time); and your pathetic avoidance of the problem of the two cylinders, to wit "...I would be able to deduce by virtue of the fact i could know beforehand what was really moving before I got in it.." As far as I am concerned -- you can go back to sleep.

The earth..well no ..coz the only progresive radial oreintaion that any poin on the moon makes lay in the earth ....so where is this point of reference you attach your majic ruber band too?!.....Hey , fellas.......any absolute RF is a GU postion not AC!?... "As has been mentioned previously by others, it doesn't make a jot of difference what you believe, or what others believe -- what matters is what is." Yea I think i have pointed this out once or twice...... What point on the moon can you show a progressive radial orientation to a some other point that lay in the moon itself rather then at the earth..........oh that’s right ...you can't ...coz it don’t exist in reality!....it only exist in your magical world of ridiculous imagination..........Even Regner did not agree with you?! I dont think we have to answer your imafinary follishness until you can answer a simple question about realilty.........You guys are confusing yourselfs with your own logic( lack therofe) and you dont have a proper understanding of what rotaion is ...real, reproducable, demonstratable rotaion in the real world not majic ruber bands and nonsense! --- On Mon, 11/24/08, Paul Deema <paul_deema@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: From: Paul Deema <paul_deema@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [geocentrism] Re: Moon Rotation To: geocentrism@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Monday, November 24, 2008, 10:59 PM Bernie B Well done -- no equivocation! I've added to the drawing. There is now a rubber band fitted between two hooks on the bottom of the ball and two hooks on a fixed object mounted below the centre of the thin, circular metal rod. I now ask you another question. If the ball is propelled around the circle, will the rubber band show twisting? Further, will the twisting not be in fact, one twist for each and every trip the ball makes around the circle? In another post this thread -- From philip madsen Mon Nov 24 21:36:28 2008, he has presented you with excellent advice. Study it, understand it. It is the truth. In another post this thread -- From Bernie Brauer Mon Nov 24 15:39:38 2008, you said - It actually also works against heliocentrists because who could believe their synchronized Moon rotation explanation? The odds are way against that type of order in an exploding universe. As has been mentioned previously by others, it doesn't make a jot of difference what you believe, or what others believe -- what matters is what is. Arguments about how many teeth a horse might have is not the way to go. The way to go is to go and count them. Well metaphorically speaking, so far as the phenomenon of synchronised orbits of moons is concerned, the teeth have been counted. Most of the large moons in the solar system have their rotations synchronised with their revolutions. Even further, there is one planet which has an orbit where the rotation is synchronised with the revolution though it is not 1:1 but rather 1.5:1. I'll not spoil your joy of discovery though -- you'll be thrilled to discover it for yourself.

"All rigid body movements are rotations, translations, or combinations of the two." So the movement of the Moon is a translation, but there is no rotation. The Moon is fixed within the rotating firmament.

So the sphere is fixed upon the circular rod and the same point always shows inward. I have attached an illustration of what I think you have described but with the small addition of a straight, thin, light, paper tube attached to the wooden ball so as to indicate visually that it always points to the centre. The ball -- with the indicator -- is shown travelling around the circular rod in a clock-wise direction. Is this a fair representation? Please indicate any reservations or arguments you may have.
