It is true that the aparent motion of Mercury resembles the apparent motion of
Mars; there is an overall motion through the Zodiac, and there are retrogade
loops.


Which is the only point I was trying to make. The 'reality' of Mercury's motion is way beyond Gerald's capacity to learn, which is essentially non-existent. He still denies that the inferior planets perform apparent retrograde loops, despite overwhelming evidence otherwise.
