    Quote
    A little more exploration shows that, not only is interest in Flat Earth outstripping geocentrism by a long mile, its appeal is geographically more diverse.  Ball earth geocentrism seems limited to the United States, while the Flat Earth phenomenon is more global in its appeal.
    .
    .Ironic.
    .

    I would have said, "Flat earth is WORLDWIDE in its appeal."

    So in other words, flat-earthism is beginning to enjoy a global appeal. 
    .
    Now that is something to be proud of. Congratulations.

    • I don't see how the geocentric model can make sense once you accept the concept of gravity as the glue holding the whole structure together. How could the entire universe rotate around a tiny earth?

    What could it orbit, do you suppose?

    I really want to know how those stars and planets SUDDENLY DECIDED to start SPINNING to coalesce and MAKE THEMSELVES.

    That, to me, is the most idiotic part of heliocentric/ball-earth geocentrism.

    I don't know how gravity would fit into it, but I think you're right to ask how it is that the entire universe could rotate around a tiny earth. It doesn't make sense that the universe would rotate around the earth. 

    In a flat earth model, the universe isn't so huge, and it rotates above the earth, not around it. At least that's my understanding of the general view of how a flat earth and the universe works.

    " How could the entire universe rotate around a tiny earth? How could the entire universe rotate around a tiny earth?"

    Entertaining the possibility that you're not just another screwdriver making with the guile. It was your question(?), yet you "don't understand" the response?

    ... the universe... rotates above the earth, not around it. 
    But it's a dome no, wait, it's a "snowglobe", which is around but it doesn't orbit, it rotates, but only the top half? .... Jeruasalem? 

    But not "orbit" because NASA.

    Yes, you understood what I was saying. The choice either is a flat earth with the firmament, or the heliocentric universe we were brought up to believe in. As curvature cannot be detected, and there is no evidence that the earth moves, the flat earth model is most logical option.

    I don't see how the geocentric option can be considered. This model assumes the existence of gravity for every celestial object except for the earth.  It makes no sense.

    God Bless !
