I'm still waiting for noOneImportant to show me where the flat part is on this:

You wrote a list full of assumptions. You assumed that I am heliocentric, and you presume that anything other than flat earth is heliocentric. That is incorrect. Your notions of those who espouse a geocentric, globe earth are also incorrect as well as short-sighted.

Repeat after me:

"EARTH IS NOT A CELESTIAL OBJECT."

There.

Lesson over.

Now, you understand WHY you CANNOT have a version of geocentrism that makes of the earth just another one of many, many celestial objects.

The EARTH does not exist IN SPACE.

It DOES NOT FOLLOW that the earth would also be a celestial object, simply because one can see celestial objects above it in the Firmament.

The earth is a different part of Creation altogether - and it is stationary and does not move. The celestial objects rotate in a circle above the flat earth plane, as was amply demonstrated in the star trails video posted by FlatEarth Inquisitor.

Watch the celestial objects move above the stationary flat earth plane.

We have measured the distance of the Moon from the earth using various methods, including lasers. One can shine a bright laser at the moon and have the light reflected back. Using the speed of the laser and the reflected light, we can figure the distance the light traveled.

That would be roughly 239,000 miles. Since the moon appears between the earth and the sun, the sun is not 3,000 miles from the earth, according to the distance of the moon from the earth.

The sun would need to be much further than 239,000 miles.

The ancient Greeks also figured this out using more primitive means, and their tests can be done using two people with long-range communications (cell phone). The distance derived from these tests supports the laser tests of the moon's distance from the earth.

That is not a lesson. It is your observation, based on an interpretation of data and on one's perceptions of the earth and the heavens.
