A few [[Bible]] quotes use geocentric terms.  While secularists and evolutionists attempt to use these quotes to discredit the Bible's hold on science, others dispute this usage, claiming that the usage of the terms is similar to the way people today use terms like "sunrise" and "sunset".  In this account, the terminology is not wrong, but merely reflects the observer's view.<ref>Faulkner, Danny R.

A few [[Bible]] quotes use geocentric terms, which isn't surprising considering the state of scientific knowledge in the ancient world.  While some people attempt to use these quotes to discredit the Bible's veracity on scientific subjects, others dispute this usage, claiming that the usage of the terms is similar to the way people today use terms like "sunrise" and "sunset".  In this account, the terminology is not wrong, but merely reflects the observer's view.<ref>Faulkner, Danny R.
