New I would but ...
I don't want him convincing other people of this stupidity and therefore for the moment I will continue the argument.

I would like to formulate a clear and convincing argument against this. I was hoping that the people here could help me.

New You can't control what other people do.
Although you have good intentions, you won't win.

If you want some arguments (that he'll reject) consider [link|http://www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/CH/CH901.html|this] and [link|http://www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/CH/CH910.html|this].

More details are [link|http://www.physicsdaily.com/physics/Modern_geocentrism|here]:

Non-falsifiability of geocentrism

If general relativity is true, then there is no way to prove that the Earth is not the immobile center of the universe. A theory that is not [link|http://www.physicsdaily.com/physics/Falsifiability|falsifiable] may be true, but it is not a scientific theory. Modern Geocentrists point out that since one can neither prove nor disprove either Geocentrism or acentrism, it is a matter of faith to hold the view of the Bible [and for Catholics and other apostolic Geocentrists] the Fathers, Popes, and Church, which they contend is Geocentrism.


HTH.

Cheers,
Scott.
