Experimentation and Heliocentricity

Thou art wearied in the multitude of thy counsels. Let now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators, stand up, and save thee from these things that shall come upon thee. Behold, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame: there shall not be a coal to warm at, nor fire to sit before it.
(Isaiah 47:13-14) KJV

The experimental basis for the purported proof of heliocentricity is vast. Fortunately we collected up all of the submissions to our “can you prove heliocentricity?” challenge which began December 25, 2015.

The Narrative of Dark Matter

For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.
(2 Timothy 4:3-4) NKJV

Dark matter doesn’t exist outside the popular science paradigm (SciPop). It’s not a fact. Its existence is desired because the alternative is a firmament on the edge of space which isn’t compatible with the narrative.

Experimentation and Dark Matter

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
(Hebrews 11:1) KJV

Dark matter can’t be detected. That’s because it doesn’t exist. That doesn’t matter, people are still looking for it. It’s an example of how we use faith in science.

He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness was under his feet.
(2 Samuel 22:10) NKJV

The popular science (SciPop) narrative of godless existence has been developed by the process of peer review, the ruler of a pantheon of deities which serve to protect the five axioms of SciPop.

Popper’s Paradox

July 26

You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
(John 8:44) ESV

Scientific hypotheses must be falsifiable but the truth can’t be falsified, if it could it wouldn’t be true. Therefore popular science (SciPop) and truth are mutually exclusive.

Scientific Hypotheses

O Timothy! Guard what was committed to your trust, avoiding the profane and idle babblings and contradictions of what is falsely called knowledge—
(1 Timothy 6:20) NKJV

For a hypothesis to be a truly “scientific hypothesis” it must be possible to design experiments that can test and either confirm or refute predictions which have been made using the hypothesis.

The Scientific Method

But there was a certain man called Simon, who previously practiced sorcery in the city and astonished the people of Samaria, claiming that he was someone great, to whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, “This man is the great power of God.”
(Acts 8:9-10) NKJV

One of the ways that popular science (SciPop) attempts to be rigorous and hold itself accountable is through use of something called the scientific method. It’s a systematic approach to investigation.

Scientific Facts

You shall have just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin: I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.
(Leviticus 19:36) ESV

Popular science (SciPop) is an inductive rationalization of the the premise that the universe has no divine or supernatural cause. Unfortunately the universe has a divine, supernatural cause.

Hitchens’s Razor

July 24

Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before a fall.
(Proverbs 16:18 ) NKJV

Hitchens’s razor is one of the most popular atheist deities. It’s the intellectual equivalent of putting your thumbs in your ears and wiggling your fingers while sticking your tongue out.

Is Simple Still Best?

Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
(John 8:31-32) NKJV

If we’re supposed to accept the hypothesis with the fewest assumptions, lets compare how many assumptions have been made in the popular science paradigm (SciPop) vs. Matty’s Paradigm.
