The Earth’s So-called Rotation, part 4

“What strikes you as being some thoughts that people would have if – in the short space of a few weeks – the universally held conviction that the Earth rotates on an axis daily and orbits the sun annually were exposed as an unscientific deception? Keep in mind that a rotating, orbiting earth is not counted as a mere hypothesis or even a theory anywhere in the world today. Oh no. Rather, this concept is an unquestioned ‘truth’; an established ‘fact’ in all books and other media everywhere, church media included. Copernicanism, in short, is a concept that is protected in a bunker under a 50 foot thick ceiling of solid ‘scientific’ concrete. It is meant to be impregnable. It is a concept that has become ensconced in men‟s minds as the indestructible cornerstone of enlightened modern man‟s knowledge. Virtually all people everywhere have been taught to believe – and do believe – that this concept is based on objective science and dispassionate secular reasoning.” -Marshall Hall, “Exposing the Copernican Deception”

“Ninety-nine people out of a hundred would give the same answer to the interrogation; and that same answer would be to the effect that „the earth is a globe which revolves round the sun.‟ The ninety-nine who makes this reply would do it because they „know it is the case.‟ (!!!) „How do they know it?‟ Let this question be put to them, and they will bestow upon you a withering smile of pity at what they conceive to be an imbecility of mind on your part, and answer you in something like the following style: „It always has been so. We learnt it at school. Clever men say so; and look how astronomers can foretell eclipses;‟ and then lose their temper at „the very idea‟ of the globular theory being incorrect, and a haughty „ there can‟t be a doubt about it,‟ will close all they have to say on the subject. Now, if the ears of these ninety-nine could only be gained, they would be shown in an irresistible manner that the philosophy which would speak of a round and revolving world is a false philosophy.” –B. Chas. Brough, “The Zetetic” Volume 1 Number 1, July 1872
