Do you admit that the Sun and Moon are spheres and cut the plane of the ecliptic at inclined angles in 3-D space?

I don't know whether the sun and moon are spheres ... and with FE the notion of an "ecliptic" is unclear to me.

From some videos I've watched, looks like FE believe eclipses are caused by a black sun...

If I remember correctly, the sun has a fast speed of rotation. Assuming sun spots don't float over a molten surface, it should be possible to track the rotation and prove it is a sphere by tracking sun spots.

I have watched the moon pass in front of the sun, so how eclipses work is obvious to me. I was lucky enough to be near the center of "totality", but still within that full shadow coverage, and viewed it through a telescope with a home made filter and a couple pairs of sun glasses. There's just not enough time to really get your fill of observing such an event.

Everybody thinks that they are spheres, of course, They're both round and not flat disks. The way the Earth works in lunar eclipses shows that it's round too, and I doubt that it's a flat disk in exception to them.

The Sun ranges from the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn and then the equator between and the Moon ranges from the north and south nodes where eclipses occur at the nodes of a new moon. It's like two circle hoops with a nail, or two opposite nails, fastened in to them, and they rotate up or down a little into a vertical or third plane. They don't stay on the same flat plane. Their motions imply and show sphericity in space.

The heliocentric freaks from ʝʊdɛօ-Masonic controlled NASA, who have never landed on the Moon or Mars and lie about Pluto and just about everything else, while they scam the country out of money and laugh about it, those people think the Earth's an "oblate spheroid" due to lateral forces from "gravity". Another falsehood. The Earth is a perfect sphere not an "oblate spheroid" and "gravity" doesn't represent lateral forces anyway. There aren't any lateral forces from so-called "gravity", there aren't any "gravity kicks" for their rockets, and the Earth is not moving to orbit the Sun anyway in the first place.

Spheres in the heavens is a perception, not reality.  

“There really are not any spheres in the heavens… Those of which have been devised by the experts to save the appearances exist only in the imagination, for the purpose of enabling the mind to conceive the motion which the heavenly bodies trace in their course and, by the aid of geometry, to determine the motion numerically through the use of arithmetic.”
