All motion is relative to Something other then itself…..the discussion is the rotation of the moon..with respect to what does it rotate if it rotates?..the earth?!..NO it has not change in orientation wrt the earth…thus it cannot be said to have a relative motion wrt earth!? .no relitive motion, no real rotation!? …Paul and Phil, Imagining that you are a omnipotent god looking down from the heavens over earth is not science, nor is that objective nor is that a objective definition and demonstration of the existance of a real motion. Merely counting the sacred cows twice does not me you have twice as many sacred cows as before…Motion is only motion relative to other REAL bodies not imaginary ones!?…..….. without the reality of another body to have relative motion wrt, then there can be no logical or valid claim for a motion that is dependent on something that does not exist!? This is the difference between reality and imagination….creating imaginary frames of reference and moving them around using imaginary physics does not constitute a motion in reality……You are confused and confusing demonstratable reality with pure imaginations of nonsense. --- On Wed, 11/26/08, Allen Daves <allendaves@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: From: Allen Daves <allendaves@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: Moon Rotation To: Geocentrism@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Wednesday, November 26, 2008, 10:05 AM --- On Wed, 11/26/08, allendaves@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx <allendaves@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: From: allendaves@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx <allendaves@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [geocentrism] Moon Rotation To: Geocentrism@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Wednesday, November 26, 2008, 9:41 AM Paul, 1. Im not assuming anything , only poinint out that you cant rest your evidence on assumptions....that was a argument of your postion not mine...I did not attempt to use what the moon would or would not do if it were sudenly released from its orbit...only pointing out that niether can you.. 2. ....I chose that defining because it sucintly captures the essence of a rotaion...but merely having a rotaion does not tell you what is in rotataion around what and there in lies your problem....the rotation exist internal or external to the body in question or both simoltaniously...i can objectively define and demonstrate them ...you resort to counding a motion twice and calling it two motions....otherwise you have to demonstrate the distinqution between the motion...it is that to which you have not done nor can you using your approach...I have proven my affermation by demonstrating the converse of it to be in error...that is a indirect proof but logicaly valid untill shown otherwise. I'm sure if you pick up several dictionaries you can find any number of deffintions....that does not mean the deffintions are not relevant or valid..A progressive radial oreintaion to a common point is a rotation by nature..I have already affirmed and demonstrated that every rotation has thoes common elements........no your problem is demonstrating how that particular deffintion is not valid or relevant or somehow in error. Some things are self evident....If you dont agree that this is ...ok, fine...now demonstrate the folly here...They say answeres are easy to find, asking the right questions is the real difficulty.......maybe it is because you don't properly define your terms first as one the reason you can't seem to objectivley show the "real truth" you are trying to demonstrate. --- On Wed, 11/26/08, Allen Daves <allendaves@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: From: Allen Daves <allendaves@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: Moon Rotation To: Geocentrism@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Wednesday, November 26, 2008, 9:38 AM --- On Wed, 11/26/08, Paul Deema <paul_deema@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: From: Paul Deema <paul_deema@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [geocentrism] Moon Rotation To: Geocentrism@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Wednesday, November 26, 2008, 9:16 AM Allen D Comments in <colour> You said - From allendaves@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Tue Nov 25 15:11:56 2008 Evidence!!..where?!.....you cannot claim the moon would rotate if released from its orbit without first ASSUMING the AC dynamics is true first and that the moon is not fixed in the Firmiment.!!!.<Are you assuming that the Moon IS fixed in the firmament?> Making assumptions about the very nature of physics and physcial constructs of the universe that is in question is not Evidence it is called circular fallicies!!!!!!!..<Hmmm!>...I would have thought that would have seeped in by now.... A rotation...any demonstratable roation is a progresive radial orientaion to a common point..<I have been unable to find any reference supporting this definition. Can you supply one?>.
