April 4

Galileo & the Mind Pirates

There are heavenly bodies and earthly bodies, but the glory of the heavenly is of one kind, and the glory of the earthly is of another. There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for star differs from star in glory.

(1 Corinthians 15:40-41) ESV

We’re investigating the Biblical nature of stars and how they’re derived from crystalline firmament material (CFM). If you have any experience with science then you will know the importance of definitions.

April 1

The Stars Will Fall to Earth

And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.

(Genesis 1:16) KJV

It’s ironic that April 1st is April Fools’ Day and that today we’ll begin making the case that the cosmos is Geocentrospheric, but this isn’t a joke. We’re going use the Bible to understand empirical observations.

How could there be photosynthetic life before there was a sun?

And God said, “Let the earth sprout vegetation, plants yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according to its kind, on the earth.” And it was so.

(Genesis 1:11) ESV

And God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night. And let them be for signs and for seasons, and for days and years,

(Genesis 1:14) ESV

The third day of creation, when God made the dry land appear and covered it with lush vegetation, is a subject of derision from atheist science trolls (ASTs) because of where it occurs in the sequence of creation.

The Second Heaven

(celestial realm, cosmos, observable universe or space)

The stars fought from the sky;
as they moved across the sky,
they fought against Sisera.

(Judges 5:20) Good News Translation

Most of the space between the firmament and Earth is the cosmos or observable universe. There’s something very odd about the cosmos: there’s a disconnect between what we can see vs. what we believe about it.

Biblical Cosmology

There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another. There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory.

(1 Corinthians 15:40-41) KJV

Based on our first Principle, God Can’t Lie and the Bible is True, it must be possible to use the Bible to deduce an accurate model of the cosmos. We’re not talking about the Star Trek universe of the popular science paradigm (SciPop).

The Internal Structure of Earth and Size of the Cosmos is Unknowable

If one day the sky could be measured
and the foundations of the earth explored,
only then would he reject the people of Israel
because of all they have done.
The Lord has spoken.

(Jeremiah 31:37) Good News Translation

Axiom IV is “The Internal Structure of Earth and Size of the Cosmos is Unknowable.” We can deduce Principle I from the following physical evidence, empirical observations or established theories which are part of Axiom IV.

Earth is the Center of the Observable Universe

The sun and moon stood still in their habitation: at the light of thine arrows they went, and at the shining of thy glittering spear.

(Habakkuk 3:11) KJV

Axiom III is “Earth is the Center of the Observable Universe.” We can deduce Principle I from the following physical evidence, empirical observations or established theories which are part of Axiom III.

Betelgeuse Is Neither as Far Nor as Large as We Thought

In the wake of recent fluctuations in Betelgeuse’s brightness, astronomers have rigorously examined the star’s vital statistics, and come up with a bit of a surprise.

Betelgeuse is 25 percent closer than scientists thought

  • Scientists studying the star Betelgeuse have determined that it’s actually roughly 25% closer than previous estimates.
  • The star is also slightly smaller than scientists assumed, though it still appears as though it’s reaching the end of its life.
  • The star poses no threat to Earth when it eventually blows up.
