YEC Spaghetti Theology

Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

(John 16:13) KJV

Young Earth creationists (YECs) have been fighting the good fight for decades but it has led to the current situation where it looks like Christianity and intellectual exploration are different ends of a spectrum. Now we’re at a crossroads.

YECs have been bogged down on two fronts:

  1. Science vs. faith,
  2. creation vs. evolution.

The Broad Narrative of Physics

See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ.

(Colossians 2:8) ESV

It’s important that any theory we propose has to be congruent with the broad narrative of scripture. However, by using deductive reasoning, we superimpose onto this a broad narrative of physics.

Tycho’s Geocentric Cosmology

(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

(2 Corinthians 10:4-5) KJV

Tycho Brahe made meticulous observation of the cosmos. He was on the Earth so, naturally, he observed a Geocentrospheric system. The problem was that he didn’t know about binary systems because they hadn’t made Star Wars yet.

Eccentricity

Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?
Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or canst thou guide Arcturus with his sons? Knowest thou the ordinances of heaven? canst thou set the dominion thereof in the earth?

(Job 38:31-33) KJV

There’s a nuance in discussing variation in the orbital radius of the sun vs. the Earth-sun radial distance. This gives popular science (SciPop) the ammo it needs to oppose anyone who proposes a Geocentrospheric model.

Earth-sun Radius

Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun, Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race. His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.

(Psalms 19:4-6) KJV

Contrary to popular opinion, the Earth doesn’t have an elliptical orbit of the sun. The Earth-sun radius is, for all practical purposes, constant.
