Geocentrism

[Gaillo]

I've so far stayed out of this thread... I've viewed it as retarded almost beyond belief!

OK... for the geocentrists of the forum, I have 2 simple questions:

(1) Geocentrism implies that the Earth is immobile, and that all other objects in the Universe are moving around it. WHAT causes the sun to orbit the Earth? There is obviously not enough mass/gravity inherent in the Earth. Is it "the power of God" or some other similar Deus Ex Machina? As a side question, if the Sun is orbiting the Earth, then why are the other planets apparently in orbit around the Sun instead of also in orbit around the Earth?

(2) With some of the measured motion of other stars and galaxies in relation to the Earth, many of those objects (assuming a fixed Earth) would have to be travelling faster than the speed of light, violating what has been CLEARLY DEMONSTRATED by decades of scientific and engineering discipline as a fundamental physical constant. Does Geocentrism throw out this constant as inconvenient? Or does it just ignore all of the technical advances that have relied upon this constant for their functionality?
