"There is talk of a new astrologer who wants to prove that the earth moves and goes around instead of the sky, the sun, the moon, just as if somebody were in a carriage or ship might hold that he was sitting still and at reast while the earth and the trees walked and moved. But that is how things are nowadays: when a man wishes to be clever he must needs invent something special, and the way he does must be the best, The fool wants to turn the whole art of ASTRONOMY upside down. However HOLY SCRIPTURE, tells us, so did Joshua bid the sun to stand still and not the earth."
- Martin Luther.
Here Luther familiar with Copernicus and his silly idea calls him a astrologer, wise old Luther knew that Holy Scripture and Astronomy were compatible, but that the fasle occult of Astrology was a game for decieved fools who think themselves clever and special.
Luther was right, so was Joshua.
