Sometimes, Stephen I think you only get half my messages.

You missed where I wrote:

the experimental data for the Copernican system.<<

You wrote:

Who are they? None of the major YEC books that I have read
embrace geocentricism.<<

Why do you quote what I say but delete the evidence I present and act as if I
didn't put anything out there? This doesn't seem quite fair. I never said
that the guy I was quoting was a major YEC book author. I said "today there
are some YEC's who hold to geocentrism. Then I wrote this.

>> In the June, 1979,
Creation Research Quarterly, the first one I subscribed to, had a letter by
Harry Akers which asked, "Surely Dr. Hanson is not seriously suggesting that
we abandon the heliocentric model of the solar system in favor of a
geocentric model of the entire universe!" P. 82

To which Dr. James N. Hanson replied,
"I surely am suggesting a geocentric model for the whole Universe.
Specifically, one wherein the earth does not spin nor does it translate
through space but is at the center of Creation just where the Bible puts
it."p. 83<<

Go look it up! But please quit asking me for evidence AFTER you carefully cut
out the evidence I presented in my quotations. This technique does not lead
to fruitful discussions.
