It isn't egg-shaped

The earth's shape is an ellipsoid As the centuries passed, scientists and
explorers began to realize that the
earth was not a perfect sphere.
British scientists, led by Isaac Newton,
theorized that the centrifugal force
from the earth's rotation would force the earth to "spread out" from east to
west as it rotated about its axis.

look at the image and tell me how it looks like?

The sun doesn't orbit the Earth.

who said anything about sun orbitting the earth? Why would you assume things that are not said?
Sun orbits the centre of our galaxy.

The mountains are not moving like
clouds,

yes they are, when the Earth spins they move along with the earth.

and they do NOT keep the
Earth from shaking. Shaking is what
CREATES mountains - tectonic plates,
and you know that.

What?
No i don't know that and Thank God that i don't know what you are claiming!
Mountains can be formed when two plates collide but then the movements stop and the mountains are like pegs, the elevation that you see above the surface is just a tiny part, the mountains go deep into the earth's crust 20-30 times their height like "pegs".

That the universe is expanding does
not mean "God" is doing it.

if universe is expanding and a Creator made it behave that way then the Creator is expanding it and another thing, you assume that things keep working in universe and don't require someone constantly doing it. In that you put anthropomorphic ideas to the universe and to the Creator. Universe started from nothing and not into a pre-existing space with all the natural laws already in place!
Imagine a balloon expanding. Someone has to blow air into it to make it keep expanding. Right?

YOU are responsible for YOUR LIFE; and
those barbarians who are lopping
people's heads off in the name of
"Allah", maiming and killing young
girls and pitching a tantrum about
how OTHER PEOPLE live can NOT blame "the West" for their savagery. Deal
with it.

and you call yourself "open-minded"?

i don't care if you keep denying very obvious things or keep believing a distorted world view. People do that, they fool themselves a lot.

i tried to have a discussion with you, hoping that you will be better this time but i was so wrong. You don't want to learn. You just seek birds of same feathers.. all the best

hoping I will "be better"? Be better than what?

I don't want to learn?? - I learn every day - and one thing I've learned is that you are no longer "helping" me figure out Islam or being friendly in any way.. Furthermore, I don't care what YOU think I want, or think, or seek, or am 'trying to do'.
Don't you have anyone else you can badger? I'm all out of whatever you are looking for here...

look at the image and tell me how it looks like?

It looks like the ATS top topics page.

ok here's the image, how does it look?

I am done. You are not open to discuss and let your beliefs be attacked or questioned, you don't want to answer my questions and the discussion tends to turn into arguements when you start pointing things that some muslims are doing and judge them as islamic which is just shallow and not at all intellectual. You found a good site at last, so just use it.
I am done.
