So, given the one opinion here of geocentrism with a smaller universe, I must say that I am bugged by the geocentrist position that concedes modern science's allegations regarding the size of the universe.
I ran the numbers to calculate the circuмference of the universe given the diameter. If the entire universe rotated around the earth once per day, then the objects at the outermost regions would be travelling at a rate of about 200,000,000 LIGHT YEARS PER MINUTE, or 3,333,333 LIGHT YEARS PER SECOND.
I know that some claim that, well, God can do anything. Of course. But would he violate what appear to be laws of physics, and make matter travel that much faster than the speed of light?
But how is it possible for items to move at 3,333,333 LIGHT YEARS PER SECOND.
Seems to me that if you're a geocentrist, you absolutely have to hold that the universe is much smaller than science claims. I think that even Donachie's numbers are way too big (you didn't give a size of the entire universe), and would still result on speed past the speed of light.
Does anyone know how Dr. Sungenis explains this?
I did download his book on Hildegard of Bingen (I don't accept "St." since her canonization was 2012 and therefore not worth the paper it was written on). I'm having a hard time finding the actual passage from Hildegard. Based on the subtitle, I was hoping there would be a separate complete text, but there's probably more "commentary" from one guy or another (and his own) than there is actual citations from Hildegard.
