ok well this is where astronomy is

ObsUni_WikipediaPablo_960.jpg


the telescopes look outwardly FROM the earth and find the same distance in all directions. Which in theory puts the Earth either at or near the center of the universe. Can you disprove this claim?

yes.

1. there cannot be more than one centre of the universe.

2. 500 flight years away from the earth is also the centre of the visible universe.

ergo: the centre of the visible universe is not the centre of the actual universe (if the universe has a centre at all).

nah it's right in the middle of babble-dom :ufdup: just babbling
like i said: conjecture
an opinion or conclusion formed on the basis of incomplete information.
"conjectures about the newcomer were many and varied"
yes.

1. there cannot be more than one centre of the universe.

this is the first legit answer to this :pachaha:

now mind you, I said that "it appears to be so" not that it is

i just dislike the idea that some ideas are dismissed in totality without full merit

its important to understand that the geocentric model had very unusual understandings of the paths of celestial bodies that ultimately were fixed with heliocentrism

but that doesnt necessarily imply the sun is the center of the universe (or the milky way for that matter)

God makes an explicit command to not worship graven images especially ones depicting waters above or waters below.

just because sunday school gave you a childs interpretation doesnt mean it invalidates the story.

you think that a scientific theory is a proposition. it is not.

practically everything is a theory in science.
its still just a proposition

someone says: I think this is that

I will do an experiment and control the factors that I think influence this that make it that

I will report the findings whether it was true or false

Whether this is that isnt important as now there is a testimony of the test done on this to see if it is in fact that

the scientific method by definition is proposition and testing

I don't have the energy to do back and forths anymore like I would in the 2000s forums, but still want the resources out there for people that want the information that supports the theory of evolution via natural selection.

Talk origins has mountains of evidence, all from peer reviewed sources. They also have an index page for pretty much all of the creationist claims that exist (claims you can see in this very thread), with links to the original claims, and a debunking (with sources).

You can get lost for hours, as I used to back in the day, just reading up on the piles of evidence from various disciplines of science that support the theory.

See link below.
