eventually begin to see the linkage between axial rotation,orbital
motion and the evolution of physical features on the planet.Learn from
geologists for a change and for goodness sake drop these 'every valid
point is the center' of the universe notions.

standard plate tectonics concept and even if I am not geologically
qualified to go beyond a certain point there appears to be an
association between the Earth's astronomical motions,both axial and
orbital and the continuing evolution of its physical surface
features.Don indeed has a case.
evolution is not that difficult to sourse,geologists discuss physical
evolution of surface features from the point of view of a stationary
Earth in line with a communal consensus among physicists/astronomers
to study cosmological structure and motion from an 'every valid point
is the center of the universe'.
three known centers of the motions of the Earth,on its axis,around the
Sun and around the Milky Way axis.Long ago I worked out the principles
for recognising the changing orientation of the local Milky Way stars
to the remaining galaxies (think of a carousal) but find that
physicists/astronomers are content with their odd celestial
sphere.Subsequently I see geologists blockaded by the same tendency to
view all things terrestially and cosmologically from a stationary
Earth thus denying humanity of a more satisfactory explanation for the
evolution of physical features on the planet and a better idea of
cosmological structure and motion.

I accept that your statement is clear of any ambiguity.

parts of the crust.

to consider the rest of the universe to be moving around the earth."
of the Earth with you is in itself amazing,whatever shock value you
intended wears off pretty quickly and certainly if you hold to that
'every valid point is the center of the universe' view then be my
guest,I want no association with a human being who thinks that way no
more than I would a creationist.
