Author Topic: Geocentrism? Why is that part of the Resistance movement? (Read 58698 times)

Geocentrism is being promoted by Robert Sungenis and Fr. Joseph Pfeiffer (in a talk he gave saying that Galileo was wrong) and the Saint Marys Resistance website.

The proof for Geocentrism requires all kinds of unmathematical, imaginary hypotheses and really insane ideas. For example, they say the Earth is not spinning on its axis. The Sun rotates around the Earth once every 24 hours. The stars rotate around the Earth every 24 hours.

This is an effort to discredit modern Astronomy and Evolution, as if they are connected. What happened to the idea that Science and Religion agree. Afterall, it is Science that disproves Evolution.

If some people are attracted to the Resistance because they are following the true Catholic Faith, they may be surprised to find this ancient concept being promoted, when in fact, Newtonian mathematics has proved Geocentrism is a false concept.

That is correct--- true science shows that Evolution is a Fraud. this is why Pius XII has no problem with Catholic studying the alleged phenomenon. Sungenis is really trying to discredit Catholic scientists like Copernicus or Clavius.

Galileo was wrong about a lot of things( ex-- Quantum, Corpuscular physics) but he was right when he agrees with Copernicus that E rev around S. :detective:

Heliocentrism is being pushed as a fact, when it's still a theory. I know many people that are traditional Catholics that still believe in heliocentrism. To make a blanket statement that the entire resistance ascribes to one particular theory on a disputed area that hasn't yet been proven, seems a bit bonkers to me.

Before I was even loosely affiliated with the SSPX (being that I went to an independent chapel since I was 16 up until late 2012) I personally thought that geocentrism was not only possible, but more probable.

This has to be the dumbest part of what you said. If heliocentrism was a fact, it would be a law, not a theory.

Maybe you can be the one, "apollo," who can demonstrate your claim, that "when in fact, Newtonian mathematics has proved Geocentrism is a false concept."

......... but you should probably be doing so in the Crisis forum, not SSPX Resistance. But, whatever.............

This is Extremely disingenuous on the part of "PFT"

No where in the OP does apollo state that he believes in helio- centrism. :smoke-pot:
