Where does the Bible speak of the Earth turning on it’s axis? I can’t believe people believe this is actually happening – that the Earth is spinning around every day. Why, the winds would be ferocious, birds couldn’t even fly, and everyone would just get thrown off into oblivion. Haven’t you ever played on one of those rotating platforms at a playground? Try it…you will feel the forces increase the faster you go. So, this proves that the Earth is not turning on its axis.

This is what you are doing! You say “I am a Bible-believing man, and this is what I understand. And anyone who disagrees with me must therefore not be a Bible-believing man.” You are essentially raising your limited understanding to the same level as the sacredness of Scripture itself. You weave and knit passages together to defend a position you already possess, or to reject something that just doesn’t appeal to your intellect. Then when no one wants to take the time to explain how you’re wrong, you take this as further evidence of correctness. The fact is, you don’t have the foggiest idea what you are talking about. You couldn’t even tell me why the same side of the moon always faces the Earth, but you somehow KNOW all these things about God and Creation. You can’t explain the consequences of the fact oxygen is paramagnetic, nor calculate the capillary action of a particular pipette, but you KNOW how and why God does what he does. Perhaps he should have checked with YOU first. Fool!
