Tahiti is "the farthest place on earth from Jerusalem – the exact antipode. In geography, the antipodes of any place on earth is the point on the earth's surface which is diametrically opposite it, yet, because of our geographic situation at the antipode, the real direction of Jerusalem is anywhere, because the Holy City is in fact just under our feet! However, because of custom, the ark faces east. But it could be anywhere else." - Dr. Yonah Poul
