EARTH
EARTH IS AT THE CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE AND IS STATIC
Who says so and why?
​
Science comes from the Latin word, “scientia”, ‘to know’, or knowledge and understanding of things based on empirical facts and evidence. Science is immutable and unwavering. When new facts and evidence are revealed by investigation or by experimentation altering previously held understandings of scientific knowledge, true scientists adopt new information and move into new understandings of the science. The knowledge that comes forth "It is what it is". True scientists remain devoid of strongly held attachments to previously conceived notions, political views or emotional sentiment. Unfortunately, we live in a world where overwhelming forces in society heavily influences the acceptance and application of hard evidence and new truths. Many scientists have allowed themselves to become more concerned with perception then with reality. They allow social views, political and even economics override sound proven empirical data that drives true science. Some of the most renowned scientists of the 20th century have turned their backs on the results of experimentation and irrefutable evidence altering mankind's understanding of our world and the universe. Please read on.
Although there are many disciplines under the umbrella of science, this site will deal primarily with the phenomena of the material universe; i.e., physics, chemistry, geology, biology, astronomy and of course, the common language of all sciences, mathematics. Science also includes cosmology; the discipline dealing with the origin and development of the universe from the perspective of the universally agreed upon understandings of the cosmos based on observation of nature and the universal traditions of the Catholic Church. We can't ignore the impact the Catholic Church has had on the natural science since hundreds of world renowned scientists through the centuries were Catholic, some even priests and saints.

Before we go any further, it's important to focus back on what "tradition" really is; page one of this site near the bottom of the page; "What is tradition?". Although we will focus primarily on the material or physical universe alongside tradition of the Catholic Church, we must also keep in mind, Catholic tradition teaches that there is a realm beyond the physical material universe, often referred to as the supernatural or spirit realm, a realm outside of time, space, matter. The "spirit" realm is where God exists. St Thomas Aquinas, angelic Doctor of the Catholic Church of the 13th century in his work, "Summa Theologica" on his commentary on St Paul's words at 2 Corinthians 12:2 about the three heavens where angels dwell.
​
Although this spirit realm, where supernatural spirit creatures "angels" dwell is beyond mankind's finite comprehension, we've been given a glimpse of the spirit realm through tradition; the oral and written teachings of God's prophets of old and His Church including the writings of the saints. Since tradition came before there were "written" words, the Bible, Catholics had knowledge of things by tradition. (2 Thessalonians 2:14) Just as Moses was referred to as the first teacher or "apostle" to the Israelites, St Paul is referred to as the first teacher "apostle" to the gentiles. All this began to be revealed only after Jesus established His Church at Pentecost in 33 A.D.; only then did the Holy Ghost begin to reveal the meanings of God's truths through the Catholic Church. Included in these traditions is some of the knowledge (science) of the universe and of the spirit realm for 4000 years before He came to earth (incarnated) according to things written by prophets in the Old Testament. He then taught His apostles "orally" up to His crucifixion in 33 A.D., 2000 years ago. During these past 6000 years, God revealed the origin of the universe and some aspects of the spirit realm. He revealed how that these spirit creatures, angels are able to traverse time and space, by going back and forth between heaven and earth as God directs them. And contrary to alien conspiracy theorists, these angels are not weird grotesque alien creatures that live on other planets ready to invade earth with supernatural powers. As powerful as these angels are, God has given them limited powers, to be used only or His purpose. And like humans, the angels were given a measure of freedom to choose between following God's directives in obedience or not. And like mankind, angels will suffer the consequences of disobedience. Tradition has revealed to us that at some point in time in the distant past, a group of angels turned from God by their own free will and became demons. They saw the splendid powers and beauty of God and these angels desired to be just like God to themselves. God then banished them from His presence in heaven and confined them to dark pits in space unable to escape, as if caught between two realms. This occurred long before God created the material universe, the heavens and earth, before God created mankind and placed them, Adam and Eve, on earth in a garden. And God limited the access these demons have on humankind. Although they've been able to influence humans like Adam and Eve, but the demons are not permitted to transcend or manifest themselves into the material realm. This was God protection to humans because of the supernatural powers these demons have to harm God's creation. God loves His creation and has given them an opportunity to amend.
​
Trying to fathom the vastness of God's ability to create life from absolutely nothing is impossible.
​
Genesis 1:[1] In the beginning God created heaven, and earth [2] And the earth was void and empty, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the spirit of God moved over the waters. [3] And God said: Be light made. And light was made. [4] And God saw the light that it was good; and he divided the light from the darkness. [5] And he called the light Day, and the darkness Night; and there was evening and morning one day.
​
God created the vast material universe, the galaxies of stars, planets and earth on the first day. At that time earth was void of life and light; “darkness” dwelled on earth. There was no light throughout the entire universe on the first day. Where does our light come from on earth? Stars. Even though God created stars including the Sun on that first day, He did not cause them to emit light yet. It was all darkness everything. Not until God spoke light into existence, did the Sun and stars and moon reflect this light. Only then did light shine on the surface of the earth as well as other planets and stars.
​
Based on this “scientific” evidence that God created the material universe in this order and that on the first day there was no life forms of any kind on earth yet or outside the earth since the celestial bodies had just been made and was void of life, therefore, we can conclude, earth was at the center of God’s focus since He began creating life here on earth, the center of the universe.
​
Some of the most renowned and famous scientists of the 20th century have had to acknowledge the "theories" they put forth about the cosmology of the universe were wrong, Albert Einstein, Niels Bohr and many others. The two sets of DVD's highlighted below reveal that at the turn of the last century universally accepted experiments were conducted to prove these claims. The material on these DVD's were compiled by renowned PhD scientists, who studied the science of these matters as well as the universal teachings within the Catholic Church.

THE SCIENCE OF CREATION VS THE FANTASY OF EVOLUTION
PROOFS USING CHEMISTY AND MATHEMATICS
Hundreds of books and documents have been written on the subject creation vs evolution and there is no way to encapsulate the essence of all the empirical evidence that's been put forth to conclude the matter on this page, but as the great 14th century English Franciscan Friar, scholastic philosopher and theologian, William Ockham concisely put it in his "razor theory";
"Two explanations that account for all the facts, the simpler one is more likely to be correct.
It is applied to a wide range of disciplines, including religion, physics, and medicine."
​
Let's put this to the test. Take complex molecular biological chemistry coupled with advanced mathematics and see if the simplest answer is the correct one. Unlike how the "scientific community" overwhelms their students and readers with an avalanche of mathematical formulae and "ad-hoc" disconnected theories, such as Albert Einstein's "special theory of relativity" in 1905 (E=mc2) publishing books with scores of pages with little more than purposefully disconnected and disjointed algebraic equations and concocted formula trying to convince the read into believing his thesis with a blur of meaningless information, let's look at the simple straightforward facts.

Just 18 years earlier, in 1887, "before" Einstein concocted the "special theory of relativity", a team of physicists, Albert Michelson and Edward Morley had already published the results of their extensive experiments on how light travels, disproving Einstein's theory before he even wrote it. And worse, Einstein saw the results of the experiment, before wrote down E=mc2, which he plagiarized from a German scientist, Max Wilberg in the 19th century. He couldn't refute the results of the Michelson-Morley experiments and yet Einstein still put forth his erroneous position in the face of concrete empirical data, and rather then submit to the facts, he buried his theoretical nonsense on his blackboards, such as the one above, hoping to dwarf his critics in an ocean of confusion and dreamy soup of letters, symbols and numbers. But true science always comes to light. Again, we're forced to consider Ockham's thesis, basing conclusions on simple facts alone.
Let's consider what these "scientists" of the 20th century say about evolution. First, let's observe the molecular structures above, water, an amino acid and a protein molecule, each more complex then the the other. Evolutionists tells us (without any evidence) that these compounds assembled themselves randomly by chance over eons of time, they call "biogenesis". Now let's consider what simple and pure math and science tells us as Ockham suggests and see what we conclude from evidence.
MATHEMATICS:
"Probability is the branch of mathematics concerning numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur, or how likely it is that a proposition is true. The probability of an event is a number between 0 and 1, where, roughly speaking, 0 indicates impossibility of the event and 1 indicates certainty."
Is it possible to calculate what it would take for life to occur randomly on earth in the distant past?
​
​Some propose:
The probability of a single protein molecule to spontaneously together is one chance in (10164);
10 x 164 zeros after it. (too large a number to show here)
​
CHEMISTRY:
Each protein is made of (on average) 300 to 400 amino acids and there are 20 different amino acids that make up all of life.
​
Now we need to factor in that there are at least 20,000 proteins in a single strand of DNA, the deoxyribonucleic acid molecule, an essential building block of all living things on earth within each cell. Next we'd have to factor in that there are ~3 billion DNA molecules in each human on earth and these DNA molecules are "in pairs". How could all this occur by sheer random chance to arrive at human life on earth? The probability of such numbers does not even exist.
Then we must ask, how long would it take for all these impossibilities to occur by chance?
These same "scientists" claim that the universe has only been in existence for 14 billion years and the earth only 4.5 billion years. Even if by random chance of one in (10164) 10 x 164 with zeros after, we'd have to add 20,000 more zeros in a single DNA molecule and that there are 3 billion molecules in each cell and all are paired with specific sequences. The number of zeros of years in order for all this to occur by chances is too preposterous to even consider it. But that's what evolutionists want their believers to accept based on their word. And why? Simply to refuse God's words on creation.
​
Rather then accept that material and life came about by design at God's will, these "scientists" have gone on to divert attention to their other "theories", anything but creation. These evolutionists now want their followers to believe that life on earth came from "outer space", from another planet somewhere in the universe, that seeds of life on earth arrived here somehow by interplanetary travel, called "Panspermia" by Francis Crick, Nobel Prize in biology in 1976, co-author of the discovery of the DNA molecular formula. He would rather believe these DNA molecules "seeds", came from outer space. Hollywood has even created science fictions movies about it.


Even if this absurd fantasy had any merit whatsoever, we would still be stuck with the same problem; that is, how did the "PRIMORTIAL SOUP, the elements of the alien seeds come from?
Hubble and other space probes, with the use of sophisticated Astro-spectroscopy, these same "scientists" have had to admit that the known elements in space, on the moon and other planets are the same as those on earth in the periodic table of elements.

Did this deter these "scientists" who dismiss creation? No, they simply concocted another theory to put before their blind followers, the "MULTIVERSES"; countless multiple universes to confuse them more. "If the solar system can't produce a seed invented to disprove creation, or if the galaxy can't produce the seed, then let's invent multiple universes and distract the followers further away." Their idea is that the "creationists" can't disprove the "Multiverse theory" nor can the "scientismisians" prove it, so, in their minds, it's still a stalemate. This is the extent to which these "anti-creationists" will go to never admit the truth, creation.
What's interesting that the most people who follow these blind material evolutionary "scientists" around have never even bothered to examine for themselves where these "scientists" got their ideas by reading the evolutionary "BIBLE"... Origin of Species and Descent of Man by Charles Darwin.
Any who have read Darwin's tripe, found nothing but pure conjecture and hypothetical ad hoc concoctions of coming from the hallucinations of a deranged mind. I know; I read it when I was a chemistry student at Trinity College. It was all I could do to stomach the lunacy. But unless you have read it or a reader's digest version of it, then how could anyone claim to believe in evolution? That would be like believing in God without any knowledge of the Bible and Church tradition. God does not condone "blind faith". So, let the reader use discernment.

Suggestion: Either buy the video below or watch it online through Amazon. It's one of many to open your mind to some of the facts and math of the myth of material evolution.
