Summary of important references for proving a non-moving earth;

a) The Sagnac experiment - the Sagnac Interference proved that there was an ether which could be used as a reference frame for movements. This experiment completely demolishes Einstein/Meliva Maric theory of Relativity.

b) Using the ether as a frame of reference, the Michelson-Morely Experiment showed that the earth is NOT orbiting the sun.
You forgot the part where those two experiments were instrumental in defining relativity. You have no idea what you're talking about.

So are you saying that the Nation of Israel is evil?
I see there are many sites that link this " Star of David" to evil origins...All I know is Israel is Gods people from ancient Bible times and still is today, we as Christians are so interlinked with them most do not understand it. As this is my belief because the Word says so.. surely Israel could not have adopted such an evil sign to represent their Nation.
Hebrews 8:8-12

"Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah; Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them out by the hand to lead them out of Egypt: because they contiued not in My covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.

For this is the new covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put My laws in their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to Me a people."

13."In that He saith a "A new covenant", He hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away."

Would you like to discuss the errors of relativity? I as a Christian will use the Absolute Truth of God and the Bible and all science given by God, to destroy any notion of the evil relativity doctrine that has crawled up through the grates of the pit of Hell. Special Relativity Theory has been proven to be utterly flawed!

Cup, I agreed with you. To me time dilation is counter intuitive.

Unfortunately for us, it has been proven by experiment.

Please, humor me. But first:

Explain why the doctrine of relativity is sinful. Your understanding of science is abysmal, but even assuming for a moment that you were right, what possible harm to one's moral character or piety could come from Special Relativity?

Because it is NOT the truth, Relativity is NOT Christian and as Science it is flawed, it is of Satanic origin, you say my 'science is abysmal', read through my thread, does it sound to you that I know nothing of science? Relativity is flawed, time is static, God has set time in motion, time is not fluid, and it does not change according to relative position, that is a lie, there are reference markers for time and this has been proven, the universe that God has created is not based on your personal perspective it is based on God's absolute truth. There is a link between relative science and relative morals, moral relativism is an evil antichristian doctrine.

If Foucault devices are a fallacy, then every inertial navigator which is based upon the principle of his spinning disc experiments wouldn't work.


It's all done internally to the equipment. Without the earth rotation corrections they wouldnt work well. Earth rotation is measureable and it's a fact. It has nothing to do with the speed of the earth but the orientation of the aircraft. Obviously you don't understand that the atmosphere rotates with the earth, that is why inertial navigators must account for earth rotation. You need to study up on inertial navigation your lack of knowledge on this issue is quite amusing.
Now you say that not only is the earth surface rotating counter-clockwise at 1000 mph, but that the atmosphere is also moving at the same speed! Snail' go and walk on a treadmill or walk up a descending escalator in a 1000 mph head wind, and note the results, better still fly a plane clockwise round the earth at 500 mph against a counterclockwise headwind of 1000 mph and a earth spinning beneath you at 1000 mph??????????????????????????? Dear Me when God said He would send strong delusion, He really meant it!

Flawed though it may be, it's been established by experiment after experiment.

Yes. You've made it clear you know nothing of legitimate science.
Relativity is flawed, time is static, God has set time in motion, time is not fluid, and it does not change according to relative position, that is a lie, there are reference markers for time and this has been proven
It has been proven that time flows differently relative to gravity. We've made clocks lose time! It's an established fact. This has nothing to do with the sovereignty of God. It's just an interesting tidbit that we have learned about the rules of the universe that God has set down.
the universe that God has created is not based on your personal perspective it is based on God's absolute truth. There is a link between relative science and relative morals, moral relativism is an evil antichristian doctrine.
That's complete BS. Special Relativity in science has nothing to do with moral relativism. Moral relativism has been around since the dawn of time and is a philosophical stance that has nothing to do with the fabric of the universe.
Now you say that not only is the earth surface rotating counter-clockwise at 1000 mph, but that the atmosphere is also moving at the same speed! Snail' go and walk on a treadmill or walk up a descending escalator in a 1000 mph head wind, and note the results, better still fly a plane clockwise round the earth at 500 mph against a counterclockwise headwind of 1000 mph and a earth spinning beneath you at 1000 mph???????????????????????????
Um, we'd be dealing with 1000 MPH winds if the air wasn't moving with the Earth. Here's that thing were general relativity creeps up on you in such a simple way that it will bite you in the rear if you're not paying attention: if the atmosphere were stationary over a moving Earth, then we'd be constantly bombarded by 1000 MPH winds. If the Earth and winds were both stationary, then we wouldn't see the effects of Foucault's pendulum.
Dear Me when God said He would send strong delusion, He really meant it!
Yeah really. You should pray that God fixes that for you. Cup of Ruin levels of delusion are rare and often terminal.

And that would be the establishment of a flaw, developed into general concensus.

Yes, moral relativism has been around since the Fall, and so has false science.

Well which way are you travelling clockwise or counterclockwise????? I think your out of your depth here kid, go get 'Snail to help you out.

Yeah really. You should pray that God fixes that for you. Cup of Ruin levels of delusion are rare and often terminal.

As Brackenzee or someone said , everything is travelling this fast and the earth's atmosphere but we don't realise it because we are used to it, and relative to us. Just like you are in a car travelling at 100 km/h if the car is smooth you don't realise you are going at 100 km/hr if you are reading a book - your books pages aren't flying around at 100 km/hr inside the car lol. Boy you sure are below pre-school level in your scientific knowledge, perhaps squirting coloured water at walls from spray bottles and seeing it make different pretty colours might be a more suitable scientific level for you to start at?

by the way, space vehicles making atmospheric reentry must account for the rotation of the earth in the navigation calculations. Earth rotation also causes the weather patterns and determines which way the cyclones/hurricanes spiral.Earth rotation is a proven thing, in meterology, spacecraft navigation, satellite orbits, inertial navigation and gyrocompasses, to name a few.

See, there. I've Biblically proven that time is relative.

The only one completely out of their depth here is you. Earth is a sphere! Whether you'd call its rotation clockwise or counter clockwise depends on whether you're looking at it from the Northern or Southern hemisphere.

Oh, snap, you've proven me wrong. How could I have possible questioned your superior logic? :rolleyes:

Nice effort.

I am contemplating Foucault's Pendelum and the rational nature of God's design. The UN General Assembly Builing in New York has one on a 75 foot wire with a 200lb bob that spins 235 degrees in 24 hours as a result of inertia from a rotating earth. It was a gift from the Queen of the Netherlands. How do I get on her Christmas list? A pendulumn at the equater does not spin and at the poles it spins 360 degrees in 24 hours. Pendelum between the pole and equator would spin fewer than 360 degrees with each latidude having a predictable quantity that can be establised by mathmatically smarter people than me but not to hard to follow.

If multiple pendelum were set up at the same time, it would simultaneously show the earth is round and spins on its axis. I know this thread was not debating the flat earth thing but I was just making sure.

If nothing else this thread has made me appreciate Issac Newton and his faith inspired observations since his basic concepts of motion were key to this.

Don't expect this to change opinions here as there is more entrenching in this thread than in the defensive positions during WWI.

However I can rejoice in the marvelous nature of God's design and worship an awsome creator and share that with you. A clever, largely home-schooled Frenchman, allows us to see one more aspect of God's creation in a spectacularlly simple way. Beautifully revealing of God's design.

See, there. I've Biblically proven that time is relative.
No there is 1 24 hr day for little human at work and there is big 1000 years for big God day at work, there is still literally a 1 24 hr day and a literal 1000 years God day, the time is still static, it is not fluid!

The only one completely out of their depth here is you. Earth is a sphere! Whether you'd call its rotation clockwise or counter clockwise depends on whether you're looking at it from the Northern or Southern hemisphere.
It is generally accepted to be taken from the Northern Hemisphere, so I ask you again, which direction clockwise and counter-clockwise.

No it's not proven, I just gave the experiments that have already failed in trying to detect any movement in the earth, I told you that you can write to NASA or the Smithsonian Institute and ask for scientific PROOF of a rotating earth! There is no proof, it's all in your mind, you are decieved, hopelessly decieved, here is an experiment you can do - walk on a treadmill, arc it up to full speed, and try to keep up with it, then imagine the atmosphere around you turning aginst your forward motion at the same time, obviously it wont be too long before you give up or fall on your face, but maybe that what you need, a practical physical experiment like that to wake you up out of your delusion that your travelling at 1000 mph in one direction constantly, well try going in the other direction! I know, perhaps we should gfind a treadmill that runs at 1000 mph, and we will put you on it, and make notes on what happens to you!

I know you did not need any support from me but here nevertheless

Jean Bernard Léon Foucault is also the first to measure the APPARENT movement of the stars around the Earth in what is called diurnal motion which is seen the diurnal disk. He was showing a second way to view the rotation of the Earth on its axis following the use of his pendelum experiment in Paris in the mid 1800s.

He also showed that light travels more slowly through water than in air and a few other things.

Counter clockwise (anticlockwise for my brothers down under:)) relative to the North Star is what he established.

The Smithsonian used to have a version of Foucaults Pendelum and they said it showed the rotation of the Earth. The pendelum rotated 226 degree in 24 hours and hung on a 71.5' cable.

Ahhh, 'relative to the North Star', polaris. Its the reference marker because the North Star does not move, it stays over the the north pole axis.

OK so in your mind your fanciful world you believe yourself to be on a earth that is rotating at 1000 mph, counter-clockwise (Northpole), so now do a 180 degree turn and go in the other direction, imagine yourself, or even do this experiment yourself on a treadmill, OK the treadmill is not going 1000 mph hour, but it will do, so you turn round and go in a clockwise direction, and what happens?????
