Give me a break. From the Earth's perspective it does not rotate. We don't see the other side of the moon.
Yes, you can give me all kinds of scientific evidence that it rotates from some objective perspective other than our own, but when you're making that argument remember that it's bullshit to everyone living on the planet who sees the the same face of the moon for all their life.
With great anguish you will regret every word written or uttered out of that attitude and mentality.
I don’t know how soon this humility will thunderously overwhelm you . . . I just know for certain that it will.
I consider it highly unlikely that you will repent and humble yourself . . . therefore, the only option left from the universal law of reaping what one sows . . . is the above.
I also know that in this era . . . increasingly . . . the time between the reaping and sowing is decreasing . . . and the reaping such seems to include greater and greater amounts of “interest” on the investment.
Haughtiness is not very pretty regardless of what it hides behind.
Oooooooh! He's going to be thrown into the Sarlacc Pit! I just know it!
Yeah, of course you’re right, I’m wrong, and all those idiot scientists with their worthless Darwinist training are all talking out their asses.
No one’s ever landed on the Moon, it’s just a pretty light that God put up in the sky, and it along with the Sun and the stars and all the planets rotate around a fixed rigid earth that’s at the center of the universe.
I stand most humbly corrected.
My translation of your messaage is roughly the following:
LOOK I’m going to very offensively and arrogantly tell you what I think of you—your personhood, your sanity and generally the way you dress and come across—following this sentence—but don’t take it personally or anything.
YOU’RE AN INSANE JERK NOT FIT TO BREATHE AIR AND TAKE UP SPACE.
But, hey, man, no offense, OK?

Apparently Heaven’s Gate had some members who didn’t “Just do it”. They chose to stick around in a vain attempt to convert new cult members.

From the earth’s perspective it has to rotate - at just right speed to keep the same side facing us. Otherwise the moon orbiting the earth would make different parts of the moon visible to us.

I wonder how you do that.
Slogan: We killed off the last group so, for a limited time only, WE HAVE OPENINGS! What are you waiting for? Call now!
>>LOOK I’m going to very offensively and arrogantly tell you what I think of you<<
It was not to clear to me that he meant you were a screw ball so much as the idea you were talking about, but it was certainly ambiguous.
I have a hard time not calling ideas nutty - like when a guy here was swearing that neither monetary policy nor the price of oil effect inflation. But it surely does not help to apply that to the entire person.
Maybe they will have a book about “To Serve Man”.
The correct response is that it does not rotate on it’s own axis.
>>self ping<<
Keep doin’ that and you’ll progressively diminish your visual acuity :)
That is true. But from our vantage point, the same side of the moon is always facing us, so from OUR perspective it is not spinning, regardless of the fact that it actually is.
We will not see a "spin" which enables us to use telescopes on earth to see these sinister moon bases that were built by aliens or Mexicans or somebody.

That is true.
I used to do a thing for students with a orange for the earth and a lemon for the mmon with a face painted on it.
I’d move the lemon around the orange like the moon around the earth and let then come to the conclusion themsleves that the moon must rotate or else the wrong side would be facing us.
Its cool how much better learning can be when it involves figuring out instead of just memorizing.
Why are there no shadows from these objects? Why can you see ground features through the smudges?
It is creepy...and TRUE. I know BECAUSE they use lots of CAPITAL letters.
I understand your thoughtful point.
I’d think that if it was meant to refer to ideas, perspective . . . it would have included below it, the caption
-ish ideas/perspective(s)
screw ball, in our culture his always referred to a person.
