The changing view of science

When I began school we were still being taught that the universe was infinite and static, a view that had persisted since the days of Aristotle, but today we know that concept was wrong and that the real structure is more like the Biblical view; the universe had a beginning. Science continually changes and modifies its paradigm as new discoveries are made, once even the concept of meteors was considered ludicrous, the French Academy of Science having ruled that, “rocks do not fall from the sky”. Today some scientists are investigating the possibility of psychic phenomena while others still claim it is impossible, despite advances made in quantum physics and what Einstein called, “Spooky at a distance action” there is a reluctance to accept what could imply a spiritual influence. In 1989 my book “The Time Illusion” was published presenting a view that was different to the mainstream view of “arrows of time” and a one way flow of time.

Conspiracy Theory Mayhem

The internet is currently being bombarded with an amazing range of conspiracy blogs, videos and forums. Many of them are incredibly fanciful and show no understanding whatsoever of the basic laws of physics or even common sense. Many of the current memes involve the end of days, planet X or Nabiru (an asteroid expected to hit Earth) and theories claiming that either the Earth or the moon are hollow. There are also predictions claiming that the Earth will stop rotating or reverse direction and countless other events that are physical impossibilities. I must start by addressing the hollow Earth or Moon claims; since the days of Newton we have known the mathematical formula for calculating a gravitational field. The strength of the field depends on the masses of the objects and is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. This means that by measuring the distance between objects and timing their orbits we can be very certain of their mass, a hollow Earth would not ha
