Another Reason Why Utah Valley University Can Never Be Taken Seriously As An Institution of Higher Learning


27. The geocentric universe suggests that:
a) God and all the saved souls existed beyond the tenth crystalline sphere.
b) The earth was comprised of substances similar to other heavenly bodies.
c) A motionless Sun is at the center of the universe.
d) The earth is perfect and constantly in motion.
e) God is the center of the universe.

Here it is...the question straight from my midterm. I got it wrong because the answer was "a" according to the teacher...even after I argued with her...

Take a stroll with Wikipedia...then you try and answer the question.

Poor UVU.

Okay, now that is a stretch. I kinda get it though (I still think your teacher is crazy). If the Earth is at the center of the universe, then Heaven (and those who dwell there) would be outside the ten(?) planets (maybe counting the sun as a planet in that view?).
