Flat Earth Theory / Venus Transit Across the sun

Seeing as I took this photo 5 years ago today.  I found it fitting to ask the Flat Earthers here how Venus got in front of the sun for this photo opportunity?

I know the Wiki says the planets rotate around the sun while the sun rotates around the earth.  So why can't we see this phenomenon on a more regular basis and why wouldn't we ever see it for Mars, Jupiter, Uranus or Neptune?

Flat Earth Theory / Gravitational Lensing

What produces the effect of gravitational lensing if not gravity?  It is what made Einstein and his theory of general relativity world-famous and confirmed that his calculations were indeed accurate.  Had the star observed during the 1919 eclipse been in any other position it would have invalidated his entire theory.
