Synopsis
Excerpt from The Inverted Scheme of Copernicus, Vol. 1: With the Pretended Experiments Upon Which His Followers Have Founded Their Hypotheses of Matter and Motion, Compared With Facts, and With the Experience of the Senses
Though in pure mathematics he that can demon strate well may be sure of the truth of a conclusion, without consulting experience about it; yet because demonstrations are wont to be built upon suppositions or postulates; and some things, though not in arith me'tic or geometry, yet in physical matters, are wont To BE taken for granted, about which men are liable to slip into mistakes; even when we doubt not of the ratiocination we may doubt of the conclusion, because we may of the truth of some of the things it supposes.

The Inverted Scheme of Copernicus, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a critical analysis of the dominant astronomical model of the day, the Solar System, which combines the theories of Copernicus, Kepler, and Newton. The author argues that this system, with its concept of a moving Earth and a stationary Sun, contradicts both scripture and common sense observations. The author delves into the historical development of this model, highlighting the influence of ancient Greek philosophers and questioning the motives of those who championed it during the Renaissance and Enlightenment periods. He contends that the acceptance of this system has led to a decline in religious faith and moral principles, as it removes God from the immediate creation and governance of the universe. The book challenges the scientific basis of the Solar System, particularly the theory of gravity, and proposes an alternative model that aligns with scripture and sensory experience. The author argues for a stationary Earth at the center of the universe, with the planets and stars revolving around it in circular orbits. By questioning the prevailing scientific paradigm and its philosophical implications, this book invites readers to reconsider their understanding of the cosmos and the place of humanity within it.
