Fifty Reasons Copernicus or the Bible
Philosophy and vain deceit or true science? Which is right? The Bible and practical astronomy or the babel of theoretical, poetical, Newtonian fiction?Contains the original pages first published by Rev. Pasche in 1915. All pages have been digitally restored and published in this beautiful little 60 page booklet.
Luther: « They should know that one word of God is all, and all are one. » If the Bible is false in one, it is false in all. If the Copernican system is correct, then Genesis is a myth. Is Scripture which has enlightened the world for thousands of years now to be eclipsed by a science which has erred so often and is altogether fallacious in so many things? Much, indeed, is at stake. Satan is bold. Let us be true philosophers and not blindly follow the teachings of either old or modern astronomers and their many wild assumptions-but let us ever follow the truth! If the above reasons enable even a single soul to throw off the shackles of mere superstitious reverence for the Copernican dogma, and of blind subserviency to a scientific priestcraft which abuses its authority most shamefully, the consequence for good may be incalculable.
A very interesting book, which demonstrates with the help of 50 scientific and biblical arguments the impossibility of a spherical Earth. Like all old books, it is not easy to read and requires concentration, but I advise you to read it to the end.
