Message Subject THE MYTH ABOUT MOON REVOLVING A SPHERICAL EARTH -- The Moon would rise at 29 different locations around the spherical earth, from east to west.

So, then they must orbit earth at the EXACT same speed, no?

No, not according to Enoch.

The moon has her route and the sun his, but their routes intercept at given times such as the new_moon where the moon receives her light and thereafter is seen waxing once again.

Wait! If they are at the exact same distance from the earth then they must be in completely separate orbits that NEVER intersect, or cross.

The crossing of orbits would eventually lead to a collision unless they moved at EXACTY the same speed. Even the smallest differential in orbital velocity would end in a collision.

As an aside, does the sun have a zero sum gravity?

Does the moons gravity have any effect on earth?
