Things can go faster than light if space itself is bent. The majority cosmology has the universe expanding, carrying galaxies with it, so at some distance (the Hubble radius, about 14 billion light years) galaxies are moving away at faster than the speed of light.

Perhaps.  In that event, there could be folds in space also on the outer edges of the solar system.  If earth is the center, then the father out the universe's rotation goes, the more space gets bent and folded.  It also could be that light changes speeds depending on how far away it is from this central fulcrum.  I think that it's mere supposition that the speed of light is some universal/absolute constant.  What's to prevent the speed of light from moving faster than the "speed of light" at those same outer edges of the universe, if these objects themselves are moving faster than the speed of light?

Movement through space is interesting.  Purportedly we on the earth are hurtling through space at over 500,000 MPH ... at least within the framework of the galaxy.  I'm not sure I buy that at all, and the Flat Earth folks make a lot of interesting points in this regard.

Early cosmologists envisioned the solar system as involving these "spokes" that reach out and tether the planets to the central body.  And physicists STILL HAVE NO CLUE about how gravity can "act at a distance".  It's an unsolved mystery of science.  How can the mass of one body tug on the mass of another body without some medium of connectivity?

I don't see this as an issue at all.  Motion is relative.  If the earth can move in relation to the universe, then the universe can move in relation to the earth.  As even modern non-geocentrist physicists admit, neither of these can be considered more or less right than the other.

Answer: It's a lot easier for the Earth to orbit the Sun with a constant axial tilt (with Polaris always over the North pole),
than it is for the WHOLE universe to move Northward 74,000,000 miles and six months later to move Southward.
.
If you don't favor the easier more logical explanation, then anything can do anything at any time and logic and math
are useless.  Common sense is also useless.
.
Do you have any idea how much energy it would take to move the whole universe 74,000,000 miles two times a year?
And what force is doing that ?   Another magical unknown, unexplainable force ? 
.
Oh heck, I guess fire can be water and the sky can be inside the Earth and what we observe is useless.

Probably when you jump off the high dive, it's the Earth that goes up to meet you, because you are standing still
in the air.  We just cannot know anything.

 Yes, actually many on CathInfo, and perhaps everyone following this thread, have head about the infamous Foucault Pendulum.  Here is a good article for your viewing edification: https://savageplane.wordpress.com/2016/11/27/is-foucaults-fraudulent-pendulum-a-religious-tool/  

You can actually build a smaller version of the pendulum yourself with minor twicks and see the results by yourself. You will find them in science project webpages.

It's called gravitational force.  We can measure it with scales.  We can observe it with telescopes.  
Watch the Moon go around the Earth.  If we can observe it, then it's happening.  We can even
calculate the universal gravitational constant that applies to all bodies in the universe.
.
We also don't understand how God created the universe from nothing, but we can see it.
.
Do Geocentrists say that the universe does not exist because we don't understand how it
could be created from nothing ?  No, but they do that with gravity.

Sorry, but if you can't explain how or why something works, then you cannot predict how it will work in all situations and in different circuмstances.  SOMETHING seems to be happening, and this something can be measured.  But we don't know WHAT is happening and whether it would measure the same in every context.  Scientists themselves admit that they cannot explain how gravity can act at a distance.  If that's the case, then we don't even know if it's gravity, per se, that's keeping the planets in their orbits or some other force.  Science is nothing but a circular set of assumptions and unproven premises.

OK, let's assume that gravity is NOT the force which keeps planets in orbit.
How do Geocentrists explain why the Sun is orbiting the Earth and NOT
orbiting Jupiter.  
.
What force makes the Sun orbit the Earth and not Jupiter.  And explain
how that force works (and how you know so much more about that force
than the force of gravity).
.
You pick apart Heliocentrism because we can't explain everything to suit
your demands and you propose a far more idiot system, Geocentrism.
.
And, I'm still waiting for you to find a star that orbits one of its planets
in some other solar system.  Find just one.  There are millions to choose
from.

And here is the sum total of the scientific evidence given on that web page:

"The Foucault pendulum is a piece of scientific apparatus specifically designed
and built to deceive and mislead. It is literally a “humbug” – a sham, a fake, a
fraud, an artifice, a pretence, a hoax – and I believe it should be exposed as such."

Mama mia!  Tell me it ain't so.   Apollo, do you actually believe, like so many grade schoolers and others do, that the Foucault Pendulum PROVES the Earth is spinning around on its axis?

No, I believe that the Andromeda galaxy is going 6,000,000 times the speed of light, circling the Earth once
every 24  hours.

Sheeh, did you think I was still in grade school ?
