Yes the moon does cause Earth's magmatism! As the moon rotates the
surface of Earth, the surface bends which creates magma.


What a load of absolute ********.

I wonder why he hasn't claimed that it can be found on Jupiter, Saturn, and
Mars, all of which rotate with a speed similar to (or quite a bit faster than)
the rock we're sitting on...
