Yeah, me too - but apparently it isn't that easy to do.

Apparently this guy is taking up challengers to prove that geocentrism is false, and so far nobody's done it.

Nonetheless, I believe the Earth revolves around the Sun, not the other way around. I took astronomy 101 in college.  But is my belief based on faith or science?

My head hurts.
