TP, I do not need to look at either link to know they do not address the issue. Do you really think that the North pole stayed in the same place when the planetoid whose collision with Earth created the moon hit? Obviously it did not. It takes only that one obvious occurrence to prove your blanket statement wrong. There is evidence that it occurred at least a couple other times. Just imagine what would happen if the Earth did flip over, the moon would get jerked along and probably flung off into space. The Earth's flip would have no effect on the moon's orbit as the center of gravity that the moon orbits would not change. Now you are showing ignorance of basic physics. Not to mention the large scale die off of creatures suddenly thrust into different temperature zones. The fossil record is full of large scale die offs, some of which were apparently caused by just such a flip. Hmm, if it flipped would the sun rise in the west and set in the east? This is just stupid as the definition of East is the direction where the sun rises. North or South would become East as the evidence suggests that when such a flip occurs the previous poles invariably end up on the equator. As for repeating false statements in the hope some will accept them as true, you are the expert in that field. I have no desire to try and compete.
