Re: accruate "sundials"

To JTaylor

These are basic things JTaylor,the Earth's orbital orientation and
subsequently its shadow changes in accordance with Kepler's second
law.

The Equinox alignment at dawn and dusk on the Equinox is when the
terrestial longitude coordinates representing the independent motion
of the Earth on its axis run parallel with its orbital orientation,the
illusion of axial rotation disappears and we see,at least I do,the
motion of the Earth from a truly orbital motion.This is the benefit of
dropping the sidereal view/celestial sphere.

This complimentary addition to the Copernican/Keplerian heliocentric
framework cannot be appreciated by people who have trouble with the
basic principle of independent axial rotation and its relationship with
orbital motion but after 4 years it certainly seems that an
astronomical creationist view is so engrained that astronomy may be
beyond recovery,too soon to say.

People cannot defend themselves against intellectual mediocrity and
neither should they have to but such is this horrible era of theorists
and cataloguers.I will continue to inject fresh avenues of approach to
planetary motion that were dropped for Newtonian quasi-geocentricity
and relativistic homocentricity but it sure is an incredible thing to
see an entire group of people having possession of the noble discipline
of astronomy while holding anti-astronomy beliefs.My Christianity saves
me from the utter desolation foisted on humanity using sci-fi as a
basis for explaining natural phenomena but it does not make it any
easier to bear as a responsibility is setting things right and
recovering some dignity to my noble heritage.Not one person has joined
me in that struggle yet this is fine for allowances are always made
that this would happen.Now it goes to another group of people.
