The Sun appears to rise and set because the EARTH rotates; the Sun just stays where it is.
To the East, as the earth rotates from West to East.
because we orbit
the east it comes up in the east and sets in the west, happy now?
No, the opposite. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west because the earth rotates towards the east.
In Neptune, the Sun rises in the east and sets in the west, just like on Earth. This is because the rotation of Neptune on its axis causes the Sun to appear to rise in the east as the planet rotates.

It rises in the East and sets in the West, every day.
It doesn't. It rises in the East and sets in the West, on the Earth. The Earth rotates towards the East. So, obviously, the Sun then appears to move across the sky towards the West.
Yes, as observed from high in the north sky. The sun rises in the east thus the rotation goes from west to east.
East and west are determined by the Earth's rotation on its axis from west to east. Specifically, east is the direction toward which the Earth rotates, while west is the opposite direction. This means that east is where the sun rises and west is where it sets.
The sun rises in the east and sets in the west. It does not rise from the south.
The Sun doesn't really rise and set; the Sun sits there in the center of our solar system, unmoving. It is the Earth spinning - and us with it - that makes the Sun appear to rise in the East and set in the west.
