I'll stick with a rotating Earth John.
Your other statements about ring lasers, differential velocities in Rocket launches, geosynchronous and geostationary satellites are either without content, and/or have been discussed at length on another thread.
Your repeated allegations that I am not being honest are also offensive and without merit.

The W-E friction is real. Maybe it cannot be detected, then again maybe it can for objects with greater velocity, and the W-E friction may well become a factor.

You're entire OP has been reduced to 'maybe it can't be measured', and yet you still hold that somehow your claims in the OP invalidate a rotating Earth? That is blatant dishonesty John. There is nothing about the point in your OP that points unmistakenly to a non-rotating Earth. And, in fact, there is a long list of expected artifacts of a rotating Earth that ARE seen and are routinely demonstrated, from Foucault's Pendulum to the rotating weather patters on the Earth etc etc.
Honesty requires you admit this OP has failed at the very least. True honesty John is something your Christian faith requires of you, that same faith you (mistakenly) think requires you adhere to a geocentric viewpoint.
