A Response to “The Pillars of the Earth and Radial Shrinkage”

This is original work submitted by a @Twitter community member

Introduction: In the interest of good science, I always make sure to consider opposing arguments to my currently held viewpoints to the furthest extent. Recently, Matty’s Paradigm has sent me a link to an article, written by himself, titled “The Pillars of the Earth and Radial Shrinkage”.

Mordor on Earth? Magma from the depths of hell is seeping through a mysterious crack

Somewhere in central Panama, there is an almost unearthly phenomenon of an opening going deep into the mantle.

Earth isn’t going to open up its gaping maw, dragonlike, and swallow us all into the inferno anytime soon, but it is exhaling hot breath somewhere under Panama.

Think Climate Change Is Messy? Wait Until Geoengineering

Someone’s bound to hack the atmosphere to cool the planet. So we urgently need more research on the consequences, says climate scientist Kate Ricke.

Here’s the thing about the stratosphere, the region between six and 31 miles up in the sky: If you really wanted to, you could turn it pink. Or green. Or what have you. If you sprayed some colorant up there, stratospheric winds would blow the material until it wrapped around the globe. After a year or two, it would fade, and the sky would go back to being blue. Neat little prank.

‘New hidden world’ discovered in Earth’s inner core

The core isn’t a “boring blob of iron” after all.

Earth’s “solid” inner core might actually be a bit mushy, researchers now find.

Ice Melt at The Poles Is Now Causing Hidden Changes to Earth’s Crust on a Huge Scale

Polar ice sheets melting into the ocean

As the polar ice sheets melt, the process is not just raising sea levels – it’s also warping the underlying surface of Earth, a new study reveals, and some of the effects can be seen across thousands of miles.

The Beams of His Chambers

Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters: who maketh the clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind:

(Psalms 104:3) KJV

No this isn’t poetry. Well, yes it is poetry, but it’s not poetry for poetry’s sake. It’s a poetic summary of a geophysical process. This describes the pillars of the earth as they were formed on the third day.

Based on Gravitational Interaction

Cutaway of planet earth showing hell at the center

Thus saith the LORD; If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, saith the LORD.

(Jeremiah 31:37) KJV

Having a value for Earth’s average density is critical to the popular science (SciPop) model for its internal structure because we can’t see inside the Earth, we can only infer what we think it’s structure may be.

Passive Aggressive Special Pleading

Giant stone towers in Monument Valley, Utah

Remind them of these things, charging them before the Lord not to strive about words to no profit, to the ruin of the hearers.

(2 Timothy 2:14) NKJV

Here’s an example of a Christian who sounds like an atheist, using the scientific paradigm and tactics of atheism.

“Being a geophysicist, I do not take the pillars of the Earth literally.”

– Compromised Christian
