Yes, at the time Christians believed that the earth was at the center of creation. They based that belief on the literal reading of the Bible. Today, scientific evidence reveals conclusively that the earth holds no such place of honor.

Really, and when did that happen? How is it that scientists determined the center of that which has no borders? Conclusively.

That is not what he said. He said the earth is not at the center. That has been determined.

Let me understand this—are you arguing in support of geocentrism? I’m giving you an opportunity to respond with a simple “no”.

Curious, Buck. Where is the center of the universe then?

How far are the edges from us in the different directions?

If we’re not in the center, then we must be closer to one edge than the other. How far away is the closest edge and how far away is the furthest edge?
