Passage 6

In English

Ignorant people wonder: "When the earth rotates, why do not these objects slide and move?" The answer to this apparent paradox lies in the fact that the earth is not independent but subservient to the latent divine power within. Mountains, cities, forests, and all the rest of them are held firm and secure by that unseen power and not allowed to slide, not withstanding the rapid rotation of the earth. Trains speed on railway tracks. Imagine the fate of passengers in the train if the tracks also were to move fast like the train! The tracks do not move because they have been secured.
