Ok so this is a post that I made over a year and a half ago on this subjectI actually do see what you're trying to say..
But my previous point still stands.. And it technically doesn't face the exact same direction as we humans like to use round numbers when we discuss time
Excuse the harsh language, the poster I was responding to was disrespecting me so I had to son him a bit
So we know that our clocks use whole numbers, but according to heliocentric theory, a "true day" is actually slightly shorter than 24 hours
This is what was being discussed here
What you mean to say is that a "true day" is 23 hours, 57 minutes, meaning that our clocks ADD 3 minutes to make for a whole 24 hour day, every day
And I already explained to you, simpleton, that by that logic, the sun SHOULD be setting 3 minutes earlier every single day, meaning that at the beginning of any given month if the sun was setting at 7 pm, 3 minutes times 30 days is 90 minutes, meaning that by the END OF THAT SAME MONTH, THE SUN SHOULD BE SETTING AT 5:30PM, AND THEN 4 PM AT THE END OF THE FOLLOWING MONTH, AND THEN 2:30 AT THE END OF THE 3RD MONTH
Does anyone observe a 1.5 hour difference in sunset time over the course of 1 MONTH?? Because you'd be lying if you said you did observe this
Any way you look at it, the block of time that any area of the earth experiences sunlight should be SHIFTING, and it DOESN'T
Also, I believe a "true day" is actually 23 hours 56 minutes according to heliocentric theory, but I was just going off of exactly what the poster I was responding to was claiming, but either way the math still does not work out with respect to what we observe in real life
