Galileo never proved that Earth orbits the sun, and modern science acknowledges this.<ref>{{Cite web|title=The Accuracy of Galileo's Observations and the Search for Stellar Parallax|url=http://arxiv.org/ftp/physics/papers/0612/0612086.pdf}}</ref>  While most are aware that Galileo was forced to recant Heliocentrism by the Inquisition, a lesser-known fact is that he wrote a voluntarily recantation of his own accord, several years later.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Le Opere Di Galileo Galilei|url=https://archive.org/stream/agh6462.0018.001.umich.edu#page/314/mode/1up}}</ref>

Geocentrism and modern physics (Newton's laws) are totally at odds with one another.  Even granting that the barycenter of the Solar System is near the sun, and that the universe has a barycenter (which requires that the universe be finite), one could posit that the barycenter of the universe is at the Earth, or at the barycenter of the solar system.  However, it would, in the former case at least, be very easy to observe evidence that this would make the various planets behave in a manner not consistent with Newtonian mechanics.  It is very easy to disprove geocentrism, using astronomical observations and the application of known physics principles.
