AMEN!
I disagree.
The earth is slightly off-center in the universe. If it was dead center, the universe would appear to be "center-less", or without a center.

Correction. They are set in "the firmament of the heavens." There IS a difference.
It not only has to fit Genesis 1, Dave, it has to fit the ENTIRE BIBLE.
And that includes the Flood.
So tell me Dave, what model does the Flat earth use for Noah's Flood?
No, Dave, it's not "immovable," nor is it dead center. The center of the solar system's gravity (the "center" of the Solar System") moves around in relation to the position of the planets, moons, and other celestial objects, however minimal their gravity.
Again, not "immovable," not the "center."
What, so you think that the Solar system is on it's own in the middle of no man's land between galaxies?
You're dead wrong.
Another straw man. Why am I not surprised.
"Up" and "above" are relative terms.
"Up" on any celestial object, be it star, planet, moon, asteroid, is always relative to the observer, but most of the time, it's away from the center of gravity of that object.
So when Genesis 1:2 says the Spirit hovered over the face of the waters (spheres have one face too, you know... (or inifinitely many, if you're looking at it from a geometry standpoint, but that's a different topic for another time)), "above" is literally above the waters, away from the center of the earth. God can be in many places at once, and Him being "above" a sphere can also imply that he is around the sphere, looking down at it. There's nothing illogical about God, who can be in multiple places at once, looking down at a sphere.
"Outside?" Why not just say "in orbit around"?
You're begging the question that the above was contradictory. You first need to explain where the contradiction is.
Clete and I have already shown that the sun CANNOT be smaller than the earth.
The sun is a star. And there are much, MUCH larger stars than the Sun. Several hundred if not thousand times larger, in fact.
By subordinate I mean that the sun, moon, and stars are all much smaller
to than the earth and move above it which makes the earth the primary and the center of God's creation in accordance with Genesis.
