→Scripture Quoted to justify Geocentric Theory

== Scripture Quoted to justify Geocentric Theory ==
Not surprisingly, notions involving geocentrism permeate the [[Bible]]. There are a number of Bible quotes that use geocentric terms. While some people attempt to use these quotes to discredit the Bible's veracity on scientific subjects, most people dismiss these objections, pointing out that this usage 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. (August 1, 2001).
