Geocentrism necessarily subsumes a stationary and planar earth (not to mention a proximate cosmology) in the same sense that heliocentrism subsumes a rotating and spheroidal (or ellipsoidal) earth (with a distant cosmology), the characteristic of (alleged) spheroidicity or ellipsoidicity being sophistically attributed by Newton to have resulted from the earth’s (alleged) axial rotation; ...
Read MoreReader, many banal arguments historically cited in favour of the earth’s alleged sphericity or spheroidicity were categorically debunked in the nineteenth century book titled, Zetetic Astronomy: Earth Not a Globe by Samuel Birley Rowbotham (who wrote under the nom de plume known as “Parallax”). ...
Read MoreReaders are advised that throughout this website, footnote references to uncorrupted Latin and Early Modern English editions of the Holy Bible are now linked to the online digital libraries holding such editions. Additionally, the links in question are accessible from the SCRIPTURE folder in the above menu and are repeated here as follows: …
Read MoreA National Geographic video (titled, “What is the Coriolis effect?”) comprising part of an educational article concerning the (alleged) Coriolis effect, was identified by one of our readers—Mr. Rouven Boganski in Germany—as unwittingly but otherwise implicitly confirming PLANE GEODESY’s pronouncement that the earth is stationary. …
Read MoreWhereas the large-scale structure of the earth’s surface is planar, being under a vaulted, impenetrable firmament, it is obvious that this firmament must adjoin the earth at the edge of its planar structure, i.e., at the southernmost extremity of that plane, or what is referred to as the southern circumference, presumably located at what would otherwise (in the absence of an established planar earth coordinate system) be referred to as 90° South. See Figure 1 below: …

Read MoreReader, it is well known that Aristotle was a geocentrist but otherwise believed that the earth was spherical. However, in his De Caelo et Mundo (On Heaven and Earth), specifically, LECTIO XXI Diversae opiniones de motu, quiete at figura terrae, CAPUT XIII, he includes a discussion concerning the shape of the earth, stating: …

Read MoreThe planar earth, geocentric paradigm with its subsumed proximate cosmology and discluded (metaphysical) gravitation, necessitates a kinematic rather than dynamic approach to understanding celestial motions. The reason for the kinematic approach is simple: …
Read MoreA critical component of the heliocentric myth is the absurd suggestion that the moon is a solid body and that moonlight is reflected sunlight. Nothing could be further from the truth. The Holy Bible clearly refers to both the sun and the moon as two distinct luminaries or lights. …

Read MoreObviously, a major subsumption of the planar large-scale structure of the earth’s surface is that existing continental, oceanic, and world maps based upon the (allegedly) spheroidal large-scale structure of the earth’s surface, are necessarily distorted, notwithstanding an apparent degree of fidelity in the case of regional or local maps. …
