I believe that I have finally broken my habit of writing letters to the editor of our local news paper, The Daily News Record. Sometimes the simplest opinion will elicit a most vociferous response. For example, we all know that the Solstices and Equinoxes move about in the calendar due to the asymmetry of the earth's orbit. Since the velocity of earth increases as it approaches perigee, the rate of the change in day length due to the angle of the sun also increases (plus we all remember that 12:00 noon moves back 14 minutes and forward 16 minutes within the "clock day" between February 10 and November 5...). This causes the ANALEMMA, the figure eight produced by the shadow of the sun at precisely 12:00 noon (CLOCK NOON), to be asymmetrical as well. The earliest sunset was way back on the 7th of December, the latest sunrise isn't until January 6th.
And this all proves that rationalists and evolutionists are the Devil as was pointed out to me recently in a letter to the editor of our local news paper.
