You may know this conundrum as Zeno’s paradox.
Now, let’s pretend that everyone here is retarded and has the mind of a 12 year old.
Is there a field of science/mathematics that can explain this?:
>Earth orbits around the sun at X km/h
>at any given point in time, the earth is in a particular position relative to the sun
>the movement of the earth can only happen over a period of n seconds
>over a time period of 0 seconds, earth is not moving, even though it’s in orbit and moving at X km/h
So, is motion a spook? If not, how do you explain that the earth is both moving and not moving at the same time?
