Plenty of cults exist - every cult has its 'religious dogma', its idols, its 'prophets', its 'science', its 'proof' and its intolerant liturgy of demands. Cults everywhere: Corona, 'The Science' or Scientism, Islam, the State, the cult of Gender Fascism, Marxism, Darwin and Evolution, Globaloneywarming, Changing Climate, Abortion...

“The universe is not executed twice over, once as reality and once as a copy in the mind. Whether we say the Earth rotates on its axis, or the Earth is at rest and the whole universe rotates around it, the two statements describe the same physical facts.” Mach, E. (1883) The Science of Mechanics. (Reprinted 1919, Chicago: Open Court Publishing).
“We cannot say the Earth rotates ‘relative to space.’ We can only say it rotates relative to the fixed stars. If the stars were to rotate around the Earth, the centrifugal forces and the optical effects [star trails] would be identical.” Barbour, J. (1889) Absolute or Relative Motion? Vol. 1: The Discovery of Dynamics. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press.
Cosmo boy comes over for a visit. It is night time. He takes your iPhone or Android. He sets it on your desk which has a view of the heavens. Energised by Youtube videos and with a magnificent arm wave and a confident voice Cosmo boy declares, “Chud, here is definitive proof that the Earth spins and rotates while singing Largo al Factotum. I am going to turn on your iPhone’s camera, point it Polaris and take time-stamped photos over the next 12 hours. You will see swirling moving stars Chuddy. Twirling and dancing. Case closed on the stationary Earth. It is the science Chud.” Grinning widely and showing imperfect teeth Cosmo boy launches himself into your wine and popcorn and turns on yet another Star Trek re-run.
In related ‘science’ I sat a child on a merry-go-round, took long exposure photos and with great conviction declared that the universe rotates around the ride.
Cosmo boy has committed a fallacy. His iPhone claim is the classic ‘Optical Misinterpretation’ with a pre-determined, tautological claim which of course, proves nothing (Assis 1999). What he has happily identified, surprising himself, is a ‘Star Trail’ photograph or pattern. He is right in that if you leave your iPhone camera on a long exposure (or use an app) pointed at Polaris, the resulting image will show the stars moving in perfect concentric circles around the North Star. Nice one. So, what? This tells Chud precisely nothing.
The Standard Model preaches ‘Relativity’ and relative motion. They do this to avoid absolutes and the fact that light interference experiments do not find a motion of this planet, but they do find an aetheric wind. The aether is anathema to ‘The Science’, given it destroys modern physics and cosmology - especially its foundational and quite mutilated mathematics.
In any mechanical system involving two objects, in this case the Earth and the celestial sphere, if we have ‘relative motion’, it is simply impossible to determine which object is moving based on sight alone.
Cosmo Boy: “The Earth is spinning at 1,000 mph, making the stars look like they are moving.” This is tautological. Your iPhone photos have not proven that this planet is the object in motion.
Counter claim: “The aetheric deck which contains the stars, is rotating above a stationary Earth.” (Sungenis, Bennett, 2014). There is nothing illogical in this claim and this is what the evidence may support.
Evidence: The iPhone captures the exact same celestial image in both scenarios. Use Einstein’s ‘thought experiment’ analogy. Imagine a photo of a moving train taken from a platform which looks identical to a photo of what appears to be a moving platform taken from a train. It is obvious that an image is not a proof of cause. Remember the Corona plandemic cry when people died after being stabbinated, “Correlation is not Causation.” Sounds sciency.
But there is more to it for Cosmo Boy. In fact, his very ‘proof’ is most likely a disproof of his theory that the Earth is twirling around in tights and singing baritone. More here

“All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.” (Arthur Schopenhauer)
“Scientists...are used to dealing with doubt and uncertainty. All scientific knowledge is uncertain….Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers in the preceding generation….Learn from science that you must doubt the experts…Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts.” (Richard Feynman, quantum physicist)
Feynman’s adjuration to understand and challenge the ignorance of ‘experts’ is rarely followed. The opposite exists in our world. Submission and compliance to any who profess scientistic divine powers is de facto. Mass deference and fear from Schopenhauer’s establishment ridicule and violence. On full display during the Corona Plandemic Medical Nazism. It should be noted that ‘Corona’ was the name of the US military surveillance and espionage project in the 1960s. They do like to have a laugh.
The Church of Science is full of pharisees, sadducees, wizards and sorcerers who will convince you that dead RNA or bacteria detritus from a bat will kill you; injected poisons are health; plant food has deranged climate; testes are ovaries; and bacteria became you; and the universe is infinite in age and size and ours is one of dozens of such universes. Never question the narratives. When you do, expect to be censored, debarred, ostracised, debanked, perhaps imprisoned, murdered or crucified. Thriving democracy, free speech and all that. This post follows on from an earlier one on issues with the Standard Cosmological Model.
There are many issues with the ‘Standard Model’ of astrophysics and cosmology as outlined on this substack. We will summarise some key areas in this post. Anyone with an open and curious mind, regardless of background or education, can understand that ‘The Science’ in many domains is unsettled, distorted, distended and discordant with reality. So too with physics and cosmology.
The ‘Standard Model’ is not standardised on ‘science’.
It is built on Copernican philosophy and Copernicus and Galileo offered nothing new, no evidence, no observational facts, just philosophy,
Unproven geometrical and ontological demands of Relativities (there are many),
Ad hoc theories with no proof (dark matter, dark energy, endless time) and,
Tautological apriori conclusions and assumptions when viewing and interpreting data to fit a ‘Big Bang’ event model, itself a theory promulgated by a Belgian Catholic priest and astrophysicist (Le Maitre, or ‘the master’).
Most of what is offered is unproven and guesswork. It is almost wholly mathematical.
In short physics, astro-physics and cosmology is a metaphysical-ontological mess, not a ‘model’ of anything. It resembles the cat’s breakfast, not a well-constructed temple or church.
The electric-plasma-aether universe, the aether, the variance of light speed and about 100 other issues outlined on this substack destroy the Relativities (plural) and Big Bang. The ‘Standard Model’ and its components simply do not hold up to scrutiny or common-sense analysis. More here
Many are surprised to learn that Newton himself found the idea of ‘Action at a Distance’ or gravity traveling through a vacuum without a medium, to be a mechanical impossibility.
“That gravity should be innate, inherent, and essential to matter, so that one body may act upon another at a distance through a vacuum, without the mediation of anything else... is to me so great an absurdity, that I believe no man who has in philosophical matters a competent faculty of thinking, can ever fall into it.” Newton, I. (1692) Letter to Richard Bentley, 25 February. Reprinted in: Turnbull, H.W. (ed.) (1961) The Correspondence of Isaac Newton. Vol 3. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, p. 254.
Saint Isaac is saying that if you apply a ‘vacuum’ to space or our atmosphere you are irrational and anti-science. The author agrees.
In 1920 Eddington, Einstein’s English-speaking prophet and apostle who fraudulently helped ‘prove’ Einstein’s relativity in 1919 (an embarrassing and obvious deceit); admitted that ‘gravity’ is often just a name we give to the behaviour of the medium (the aether) rather than a property of the objects themselves.
“Force, energy, and momentum are not things that exist in the world... They are components of the curvature of the world. What we call the ‘force of gravitation’ is merely a name for the fact that a body does not move in a straight line when there is nothing to stop it.” Eddington, A.S. (1920) Space, Time and Gravitation: An Outline of the General Relativity Theory. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, p. 95.
(Note: While Eddington used the term ‘curvature’, those of us still living in reality recognise this as a Pressure Gradient of the aetheric vortex. See below.)
