The Earth revolving around the sun

So /sci/ is it true that basically the Earth revolving around the sun is not "really" true and its all in your perspective and the context?

It depends on your point of reference, if you are speaking in relative terms.

It would be a fallacy to affirmatively state "The earth revolves around the sun", simply because the sun is more massive than the earth. Both the earth and the sun are affected by each other's mass. As well both are affected by the masses of all other objects in the universe (albeit to a much lesser extent).

IT IS ALL RELATIVE. /thread
