The astronaut can choose to walk to a position where he doesn't have

spin...


... doesn't spin too much, with respect to the earth..

He cannot avoid looking at the Sun as the lunar orbit of the


Earth brings the Sun into position once a month whatever side he


chooses to stand...


Whatever do you mean by *the lunar orbit of the Earth*? If you could only think about it for a minute you would understand that the moon clearly rotates with respect to both the sun and the fixed stars, otherwise neither would rise and set from the moon's surface.

Who,in God's name, wants to discuss things like these


when there is so much to deal with and specifically the lunar inputs


into the tides which certainly indicate an electromagnetic component


between the Earth and the Sun and the moon and the Earth as the tides


are most sensitive to planetary dynamics.


Tell me, how does the moon's presence indicate an electromagnetic component between the Earth and the Sun?

The damage is not done by your weakness,it is done by those who stand


off and then try to correct things in a poor way and without any


transparency and this will happen with this topic as well.


Fortunately, there is no damage done by your own weaknesses, either, because it is apparent to almost everyone that you are mostly wrong just about every time you open your mouth.

Here, think about this for a while...

To bundle spacial distance with an evolutionary timeline is as
heartbreaking as a spinning moon ,as though common sense is turned
inside out and the imagination which was once a tool of creativity is
now a weapon all on its own.You don't mind that you can't match one 24
hour day with one rotation of the Earth or ask what I mean by a lunar
orbital circuit of the Earth with a strange honesty nor make sense of
the images of distant Uranus among many other things but you have
begun to speak for the rest ,even those who thought it best to remain
in the background.

I cannot even imagine what it would take for a person to go outside
tonight and look at an almost full moon,a lunar orbital feature,and
conclude that it also spins once as it moves around the Earth - you
and everyone else can and that means astronomy is no longer practiced
in any shape or form.

Remove Earth from your version of our solar system, and now explain
what that moon as an independent planetoid is doing.

How does anyone face a child and tell them to look out at the moon and
watch it spin,at least anyone who values their intelligence, common
sense and the natural tendency to protect children .The only person
ever to imagine a spinning moon did so a few paragraphs after
assigning a 23 hour rotation period for Venus ! -

http://books.google.ie/books?id=gB2-...page&q&f=false

What have you done to yourselves by believing that it is possible to
see the evolutionary timeline of the Universe directly ?, I assure
you that while I look at that unfortunate stance with a sense of
pity,I also have to work to raise the standard of astronomy for
children who will no longer suffer from this empirical assault on
astronomy including 'big bang'.A person who imagines they can view the
Universal past directly has no value on their own individual past or
that of anyone else,the past is pieced together in all the clues left
in the fossil record,rock strata,supernova remnants and all other
evolutionary clues that create an ever changing picture.

The love between the Universal and the individual is a two way
street,as a Christian it is a central tenet or the background faith
against which all creative and productive endeavors are accomplished
so that while much of Christianity is centered on human
existence,without a love of creation there is no chance that love of
humanity is pursued.That is why attacks on me do not work,I am too
engrossed on the goings on in the celestial arena to descend to a
level where the Universe is mocked and in doing so you mock
yourselves.

People cannot live with errors for a long period of time,they simply
cannot live with the idea of a spinning moon as it is not just an act
of intellectual defiance but drains the mind of any satisfaction it
has from affirming that the moon orbits the Earth without spinning 360
degrees thereby we always see the same side.

That would be silly, because the moon doesn't appear to rotate from the Earth's surface, but it definitely appears rotate from virtually everywhere else. It is only a matter of perspective, of which you have often reminded us that you don't understand.

Sweet mother of mercy !.

In your favor,you are no snake and apart from your temporary descent

thought you were protecting somebody else rather than speaking for
yourself.

Who is 'us' ? ,have you a mouse in your pocket as you used to say.

God only knows what happens when you are faced with the sequential
images of Uranus which shows the polar coordinates of a planet turn
360 degrees to the central Sun and act like a beacon for a planet's
orbital behavior.I know you think that is just a perspective seen from
a moving Earth but God knows what will go through your head as the
polar coordinates still continue to turn !

If people wish to be treated like astronomers,paid or not,they will
accept the necessary modification centering around axial precession
and understand to the best of their abilities what has been done in
respect to the explanation for the seasons,global climate and the
variations in the natural noon cycle.

Yep, I've said that before, fer sure.

*Us* would be all who think the moon rotates, with respect to virtually everything other than the Earth, and that would encompass a huge majority of the general population and 100% of the scientific community. Do you really think that you are right about this when hundreds of thousands of science-types know better? Not very likely... you are in a microscopic minority here and will never convince anyone to see this your way. Your *intuitive intelligence* fails you again! Perspective, perspective, perspective...

God only knows what happens when you are faced with the sequential

images of Uranus which shows the polar coordinates of a planet turn

360 degrees to the central Sun and act like a beacon for a planet's

orbital behavior.I know you think that is just a perspective seen from

No, they don't actually turn, they only appear to turn wrt the Sun. Earth's pole continuously points in the general direction of Polaris, and the pole of Uranus continuously points at whatever its pole star may be, and the same is true of all the planets. The fact that with respect to the Sun they change throughout their respective orbits is a consequence of that orbital motion. This causes the seasons and is a well-known effect.

If people wish to be treated like astronomers,paid or not,they will

accept the necessary modification centering around axial precession...


For some inexplicable reason, you seem to think that this changing axial *tilt* wrt the Sun is the definition of axial precession, but you are wrong, wrong, wrong. Don't take my word for it, just look it up yourself...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_precession

.... and understand that you can't hijack this definition any apply it to something completely different.

and understand to the best of their abilities what has been done in

respect to the explanation for the seasons,global climate and the

variations in the natural noon cycle.


We all know the reason for the seasons, it is basic and elementary, and the same holds true for the variations in the natural noon cycles, there is nothing *new* that needs to be discussed, all of this is Old Business...
