A Saudi cleric has become the topic of discussion on Twitter after he rejected the scientific fact that the Earth revolves around the Sun, claiming the exact opposite and added that the Earth is stationary.

A video posted on YouTube shows Sheikh Bandar al-Khaibari answering students' questions and rejecting the centuries-old discovery that the Sun stays still, while Earth and other planets rotate around it.

When a student asked the cleric whether the Earth was stationary or moving, he replied "stationary and [it] does not move.
Then he went on to explain his theory while holding on to a sealed water cup and said: "First of all, where are we now? We go to Sharjah airport to travel to China by plane."

The cleric then asked the students to focus and continued, "This is Earth, if you say it rotates, if we leave Sharjah airport on international flight to China, the Earth is rotating right? So if the plane stands still in the air, wouldn't China be coming towards it?

"If the Earth rotates on the other direction, the plane will not be able to reach China. Because China is also rotating as the plane rotates

Very Well Said...

Well, motion is relative, not absolute. Sun revolving around the Earth and Earth revolving around the sun are one and the same thing.

Never expected this from you. You following a girl and a girl following you aren't the same thing.
