Geocentrism? Why is that part of the Resistance movement?

In short to believe Bob Sungenis and his geo-eccentric theories you have to believe that the entire world is in a conspiracy against the truth.  Which, interestingly, is what many of the more kooky Trads end up believing.


If you don't believe that the entire world is a conspiracy against the truth it means that your Catholicism is faulty.

Quote from: St. Paul
For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood; but against principalities and power, against the rulers of the world of this darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in the high places.


In my opinion, figuring out that the entire world is a conspiracy against the truth is where "Traditional Catholicism" begins.
Everybody has to flee that philistine attitude which wants to reduce everything to the most vulgar, "common sense" interpretation. If you abandon philistinism and embrace imagination it is not difficult to conceive that the vast majority of the world would be fooled into believing a lie, especially when our Lord Jesus Christ prophesized it.

You know that the NSA probably has a file on me labelling me as a "potential terrorist" for espousing these views on the internet? I wonder why they are so schizophrenic about people not accepting everything that the Television wants to teach them . . .

I also wonder about why this () Chilean citizen is so upset about the well beloved David of the highly esteemed Rockefeller dynasty paying a visit to his country.

Watch these two videos.






Sorry I don't have the time to watch the rantings and ravings of ignorant men.  There is simply no way he is qualified to comment on this stuff.  You cannot expect me to give everyone a fair hearing or I would also need to listen to people in insane asylums who thought they had been raped by the Pope or that David Cameron was a lizard in human form.

When my builders told me that the roof they were building on my house would meet with a 18 inch difference between the ridge boards I got my tape measure and calculated the angles and distances using high school trig on a scrap of paper and found they were 6 inches out.  They were no less educated than Rick DeLano and had built many roofs (no doubt twice in many cases at the cost of the client).

Many people are too stupid to do basic trig.  There is no way they are qualified or intelligent enough to understand astrophysics.

I've pointed out above that if the earth was not moving through space then the people calculating the trajectory for the moon missions would have needed to know this or they would have missed the earth by 13 million miles.  Answer why that is not the case.

That is a simple request that does not require you to watch two videos.

And can you reiterate for the folks again, Rick [DeLano], what is your own formal education in science? Thank you.

My credentials follow. I never attended second grade. I never attended high school. I did attend college, but only until I achieved the age of 15 years and 9 months, at which point the statutory requirement of compulsory education ceased in my home state. I returned to college somewhat later, in order to determine why it is that I could not understand what Coltrane was doing in his "Giant Steps" solo. That took a semester. I happily departed academia, never to return, and made friends with my teachers, most of whom vote along with what Chesterton terms the Democracy of the Dead. See you tonight!

If you do believe that it makes driving dangerous and picnics very hard to plan.

Trust is essential to human life and you trust people every single day in order to get through the day.
