What makes you a creep is that you will just as easily insist that if you
put two sticks in the ground and use a rotating celestial sphere
(circumpolar motion) that the return of a star will equate to one
rotation of the Earth in 23 hours 56 minutes 04 seconds.

All you have to do is provide a satisfactory explanation of why this
happens and you might get your first disciple. Until you do you will carry
on being in a minority of one.



Polar twilight comes on gently over many weeks as does polar dawn and
these events happen at either polar latitudes once a year unlike daily
twilight and dawn which arises from a separate rotation.

Foolish consensus created a notion that rotation to the Sun and rotation
to the stars were two separate things in order to create a monstrosity
that can't be and doesn't need to be explained .

Now we have two distinct rotations with two separate effects for
observers on the surface and that lovely dawn that signals the rebirth of
life in the Northern hemisphere where the two rotations combine to create Spring.

A rotten human being will look to distract from what was always here for
as long as the Earth turned daily and made a circuit of the Sun. During
that time the planet saw so many lifeforms that have come and gone until
a species appeared that could make sense of the great cycles on which all life depends.

Given the day that is in it, there is always an appeal to human goodness
as we look to the present and the future and not the errors and poor
judgments of the past.

"Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom
of God is within you." Jesus

It doesn't matter how hard you try, the greater existence encompasses you
and everyone else so that is the mutual appreciation that binds the
individual to the Universal in as many individual ways as there are people on this planet.


Until you provide a satisfactory explanation of why the stars appear to
rotate around the celestial poles once every sidereal day you are doomed to
be in a minority of one. This is your personal hell.
