This one is pretty funny too since the bible NEVER said the earth is the center of the universe, yet it's often claimed that the bible says it... It doesn't. There is not one statement in the bible saying the planet earth is the center of the universe. None. The planet earth being described as the center of the universe was promoted by the Alexandrian astronomer and mathematician Ptolemy in the 2nd century AD. In Ptolemy's system, the earth is at the center of spheres having stars and such attached to them that rotate around the earth. Ptolemy based his system on earlier work from Aristotle, while Aristotle built on theories from Eudoxus and Callippus. Later on in the 16th century, Copernicus suggested a helio-centric or sun centered universe. Newton later described Ptolemy's prior work in astronomy as doing science, and called Ptolemy a scientist, but also claimed that Ptolemy had committed fraud in the data he took. Regardless, Ptolemy's work remained a reference text for astronomy, promoting a geocentric universe for the next 1400 years after he died. Neither Ptolemy nor Copernicus were right, nor were Aristotle, Eudoxus, or Callippus before them. Both Ptolomy and Copernicus were astronomers or "science of the day", both were wrong... the earth is NOT the center of the universe, and neither is the sun. Hence, science promoted incorrect theories for CENTURIES where blame for those theories being wrong is then often times placed on the bible... yet the bible NEVER said it. In fact, in Job, God told Job that Elihu was WRONG about the "solid glass sky dome", and said that they didn't understand from the "foundations of the earth"... described in Genesis, the solar system's formation. Clearly God knew science was wrong long BEFORE science knew it. Mean while, as was pointed out in other articles, God had in fact already accurately described planet formation in our solar system in Genesis, Job, Ezekiel, and Isaiah, centuries before Ptolemy or Copernicus, and THOUSANDS OF YEARS before present day science. God made it all, Jesus died for our sins.
