Previously deleted twice. Not encyclopaedic

an encyclopedia includes an almanac; never deleted except by prod. perfect OK to have recreated it. First look for sources, & if not found, which is very unlikely indeed in this case only then nominate for deletion. See WP:BEFORE.

Elongations

As with global concepts within the minds of different cultures and nations, the terms or words created to explain truth become lies due to mere different systems, the division of Linguistic Terms resulting in Confusion. This is the case here where Greatest Eastern Elongation is setting in the west, and greatest western elongations is rising in the east. The terms refer to the greatest distance east of the sun, and the greatest distance west of the sun. Everything regarded as either false in science or religion has been created by the mind thinking backwards when the definition of the terms is not explained. Words change because teachers and parents will always say Don't be stupid, what do you think it means. And they teach you to find the meaning by context of sentence. But this is why irony and ironic have come to mean just weird instead of something opposite. (Opposite of expected is not a sufficient use of the word because most people will set up a proper standard and claim anything else is opposite of expected.) This use of east Venus being called west, and west Venus being called east is not opposite of expected because it is a choice to define what relation Venus is to the sun, not relation to an observor on Earth. 98.144.71.174 (talk) 12:11, 26 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
