In the past very few members of this Forum have been willing to declare their op on whether Earth rev around Sun or Sun rev around Eatrh.

I believe Earth rev around the Sun.

I am particularily interested in the declarations of Classicom, RC, Belloc, Myrna, Jamie and anyone else who does not recognise Gregory XVII.

In the past few years I have rejected pretty much everything else I ever learned in school. I would like to believe that the sun revolves around the earth, but currently I am an agnostic on that point.

Are U aware that the computations of the Gregorian Calendar of the Catholic Church are based in part on the reckonings of the Pruthenic Tables of Copernicus? IOW the idea that E rev around S is incorporated into the Calendar that Pope Gregory approved.

One should also note that the heretics, Luther Calvin, Zwingli, Bacon and James( among others) all believed S to rev around Eand they of course rejected the Roman Calendar.

I was aware of that, about the Gregorian Calendar. I was not aware that all of those heretics were geocentrists. I did hear once that the arch-heretic Milton believed that when the world was created the sun revolved around the earth, but when Adam sinned, the world was thrown into chaos and from then on the earth started revolving around the sun.

That could be an explanation of an alleged Biblical contradiction, but it would also throw a wrench into Newton's Universal theory of Gravity.

I try and stay away from terms like geo and heliocentrism because I do not believe there is a physical center of U or that there is anything in U is fixed or stationary.
