As we look out at the sky from our immobile Earth, we see that all celestial bodies have proper daily, monthly, annual and multi-yearly movement, that is, a daily rotation around the Earth, a monthly orbit for the moon, an annual orbit for the sun, and a multi-year cycle for planets, comets and the precession of the stars. The Earth’s motionless centrality was considered by Aristotle to be its gravitational ‘natural place.’ St Ambrose of Milan (†397), however, and other Fathers of the Church, like St Gregory Naxianzus (†390) and St Basil the Great (†379), attributed the geocentricity of the Earth to divine Providence alone.
.
Not true. Some of the celestial bodies (planets) appear to have a non-proper daily motion, called retrograde motion.  This can only be explained
by Heliocentrism in a simple way.  It can be explained by a Geocentrism that is so complex that it is insane.

I don't give a damn what Aristotle thought or what St Ambrose believed about Astronomy.  I don't care what the Fathers of the Church believed
about Astronomy. 

Like I said, you need to get out of the dark ages.

We know that a rocket needs to attain a speed of 25,000 MPH to leave the gravity of the Earth and never come back,
for going to Mars or Jupiter.  We have been able to calculate that speed (25,000 MPH) by using the formula used in
Celestial Mechanics.  If we had tried to send a rocket to Mars with a maximum speed of 20,000 MPH, it would never
have escaped the gravity of the Earth and would be orbiting the Earth in some kind of elliptical orbit.

So, to say the we don't understand gravity is not very smart.  We understand all we need to know about gravity for
rockets, satellites and the planets of the solar system (which are orbiting around the Sun, like the Earth does).  

I know .... don't tell me ... BUT THE CHURCH FATHERS, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH ...
Give me some more negative votes.  That will prove me wrong.

There is nothing in the Universe that is fixed in position... :cheers:

It is one of Galileo's greatest astronomical mistakes to presume that S is fixed in center of U...

Yes, mathematics can tell us which Catholic dogmas are right and which are wrong :laugh2: :P :o :( ;D ;) :-\

Say what?!  A Catholic dogma is a defined Catholic doctrine.  All well educated Catholics should know that all Catholic dogmas are absolutely true and not subject to change.  So.....please be so kind as to state one, just one, Catholic dogma that is not true/right and then explain how it can not be true/right and still be a Catholic dogma.

Fr. Alphonsus Maria, C.SS.R., currently working with the SSPX, claims that St. Alphonsus de Liguori was a heliocentrist.
