GiveTheWorld.com: Footage of Earth (Captured: 03/10/09)

either way why dont u just scream FAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!111 like u guys do on every other video. except your videos about god.

Is this real?????

i dont think so because when the whole earth ie in shadow you can see stars behind it and the last time i checked you cant see through the earth

I believe you'd be seeing "around" it. Since light can be bent by gravity you can see behind objects. Since the earth is eclipsing the sun, the stars you'd be seeing are the ones you'd see behind the sun if it weren't so bright. This was exactly what was done during a solar eclipse by the moon to confirm general relativity.

This video does appear to be quite real and if it is faked it was faked stunningly well.

*sigh*... I already know what parallax is. I've known for quite some time, and I didn't learn it during my terrible public education (see: indoctrination). Listen: If we look at the star 'Alpha Centauri' from an Earth circling the sun, parallax and trigonometry would assure us that the two are a bit more than 4.2 light years apart. BUT, looking at an Earth circled by the Sun, the distance turns out to be less than one twenty-fifth of that amount. They can't both be correct.

Ummm if the earth is stationary you should no parallax at all. I'm not even going to go further than that.

One more thing, the evidence is clear that the moon orbits once per day, from these images alone.. but the heliocentrists have lied to you by repeatedly stating in their textbooks and other propaganda-based articles that the moon takes roughly 30 days for one orbit of the Earth. We've all been fed that garbage from kinder up through college. How are you (and other heliocentrists) going to squirm out of that one?

Ummm.... or the satellite is orbiting with a period of one day? *squirm.* So, if by supposing the earth orbits around the sun, you are rejecting both Newtonian and Relativistic mechanics, what mechanism decides how the cosmos move? Because the systems of physics and astronomy work and make accurate predictions based on the mass/orbits of stellar objects. We know how much velocity you need to enter earths orbit, or even to leave it. (above)

We can predict the speed of an object's orbit based on the masses of the objects and its distance. Are you proposing that "God decides on a case by case basis." I'm going to propose that "what you see is what you get" and physical laws do exist. Period Squared (in years) equals orbital distance cubed (in AU) for every planet - including the earth. Your supposition is that physics, math, real observations are irrelevant.

And no one says the Earth has a jerky motion. Your local community college probably has a nice astronomy class with a lab and telescope access. The professors will be glad to guide you towards real observational evidence you can do yourself.
