Or he forgets that the bible talks of a firmament between the earth and space. That's been proven wrong too. But hey he's holding onto nothing.

So are you implying the earth is hanging, but hooked up to nothing or, that the earth isn't hanging on anything?
I'm guessing this is all just word games and semantics as you seem to not understand the English language very well.

My guess is he is using a site such as tthis to get his ideas An honest person would say as much.
In laymans terms, you're still wrong. You've yajen "hanging upon nothing" out of context and twisted it to mean something other than what it is meant in the bible.

I'm implying that NOTHING SOLID, NOTHING VISIBLE is HOLDING the earth as it orbits the sun in the Milky Way Galaxy, hence in layman's term -it's hanging upon nothing.
See above.
If you still don't understand this very elementary explanation, soorry I can't help you with that.
For where's the logic in saying, let alone believing that an absolute nothing can create something?

So...following your premise...Everything has to come from something. Where did your 'god' come from? What created your 'god'?
You can't say that everything has to be created, except your deity. Well, I mean you really can, but that doesn't make it very logical.
Also, if your 'god' created everything, what did it create everything from if nothing existed?

I've answered this question. I moved past job 26 weeks ago. It's not accurate. It provides proof of nothing. Why you won't deal with the dozen other scriptures is more telling. You just can't admit the bible is wrong. Well suck it up princess.

You ask: Is Space time infinite?
The ansewer is yes. Space time is infinite.
But Our universe is not. The Space time within Our universe is finite. That Space was formed 13.79 billion years ago.
Before the Big Bang; Space time did exist. But the timeline of the void prior to the Big Bang was a absolute constant. There were no finites to create motion. All finites were formed after the Big Bang.
Since there was nothing in the infnite void prior to the Big Bang. The timeline of the infinite void is a absolute constant, and never changes. Only Our finite universe changes and it has a expandable timeline.

I'm talking science, an observable fact - is there something SOLID - SOMETHING visible holding the earth in space as it rotates around the sun?

as visible as the forces holding us to the earth. but saying that it is hanging on nothing demonstrates that they understood physics about as well as you do. technically, the sun is what is holding the earth in orbit. its gravity causes our planet to continually slingshot around and around. does scripture mention this? and more importantly, does it explain why?
Hence, the use of the word "hangs", "hanging" or "suspended" is quite accurate as the earth is prevented from floating away, prevented from speeding away from its orbit around the sun. It's being "held" by something invisible (we call gravity).
So "hangs the earth on nothing" or "suspended in space" is scientifically accurate.

sure, if you want to sound like you know what you are talking about when you really dont.
So "hangs the earth on nothing" or "suspended in space" is scientifically accurate.
sure, if you have a second grade understanding of physics.

sorry, i thought we were discussing science, not poetry.
