Galileo
Unmasked at Last!! |
|
| General
Joshua commanded the sun and moon to stop moving in order
to give him more time to defeat his enemies....The Jesuit general
ordered the earth to start moving in order to
discredit the Bible and defeat the Reformation!! |
"Then
spake Joshua to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the
Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of
Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; and thou, Moon, in the
valley of Ajalon.
And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had
avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the
book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and
hasted not to go down about a whole day.
And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD
hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the LORD fought for Israel"
(Joshua 10:12-14).
Jesuits versus
Dominicans!!
Galileo
was a Jesuit monk and a Florentine FRAUD like Amerigo
Vespucci. The Dominicans and Franciscans
did cooperate in naming the New World after Vespucci, but
they were not anxious to cooperate with the Jesuits in making
the earth spin on its axis and go around the sun once a year:
"And
Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided
against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house
divided against itself shall not stand:
And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how
shall then his kingdom stand?"
(Matthew
12:24-26).

Jesuit
monk Galileo on trial before the Dominican dominated Inquisition.
|
In
1633, Galileo was commanded to appear before the Roman Inquisition
for writing a book entitled Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief
World Systems, Ptolemaic and Copernican. This book advocated
the heliocentric model of the solar system that the earth turns on
its axis and orbits the sun.
This
was not a new idea as some of the ancient Greeks taught the movement
of the earth. The Greeks got all their ideas from the sun worshipping
ancient Egyptians who held similar ideas
of the centrality of the sun. The Jesuits— the shock troops
of the Counter Reformation— adopted this theory because it undermined
faith in the Bible which is the very foundation of the Reformation.
The
Dominicans on the other hand hated the Jesuits as upstarts
and usurpers. The Dominicans wanted no part in this Jesuit novelty
and so they condemned Galileo and his book. The Dominicans ran the
unholy office of the Inquisition and they were also very anxious
to stop the Reformation.
The
Dominicans bitterly opposed Saint
Martin Luther for translating the Bible into German and Saint
William Tyndale was burned at the stake by the Dominicans for
translating the Bible into English. One of their own monks, Saint
Girolamo Savonarola, was actually burned at the stake for preaching
from the Bible and calling Rome, Babylon!!
Believe
it or not the Dominicans claimed to be DEFENDING the "Bible"
when they condemned Galileo. Here is an excerpt from the trial of
Galileo:
"You
have rendered yourself," the document declared, vehemently suspect
of heresy, namely of having held and believed a doctrine which is
false and contrary to the Sacred and Divine Scriptures, that the Sun
is the centre of the world and does not move from east to west, and
that the Earth moves and is not the centre of the world; and that
one may hold and defend as probable an opinion after it has been declared
and defined contrary to Holy Scripture."
(Galileo in Rome, p. 193).
The "Bible"
the Inquisitors were quoting from was the corrupt Latin Vulgate version
of Jerome. That version had corrupt words like cross instead of tree
or wood, priest instead of elder, do penance instead of repent, church
instead of congregation, confess your SINS instead of confess your
FAULTS, charity instead of love, and idols instead of images etc.,
etc., etc.
The trial and
the subsequent publicity was a great boost for Galileo and his heliocentric
views.
The
TIDES were Galileo's ONLY PROOF of a rotating earth!!
Galileo
could be forgiven for making such a major mistake as attributing the
tides to the earth's alleged rotation. The Mediterranean Sea has very
low tides because the Straits of Gibraltar restrict the Atlantic ocean
tidal flow. However, his fellow Jesuits were all over the world by that
time and they could have corrected his tidal errors. Here is a quote
from the Dialogue:
"Salviati.
I shall prove my paradox, Simplicio, and then leave to you the burden
of either defending the axiom against it or of bringing the two into
accord. My demonstration will be brief and easy; it will depend upon
things already dealt with at length in our past conversations, without
introducing the slightest word to make it favor the ebb and flow.
We have already said that there are
two motions attributed to the terrestrial globe; the first is annual,
made by its center along the circumference of its orbit about the
ecliptic in the order of the signs of the zodiac (that is, from west
to east), and the other is made by the globe itself revolving around
its own center in twenty-four hours (likewise from west to east) around
an axis which is somewhat tilted, and not parallel to that of its
annual revolution. From the composition of these two motions,
each of them in itself uniform, I say that there results an uneven
motion in the parts of the earth. In order for this to be understood
more easily, I shall explain it by drawing a diagram."(Galileo,
Dialogue, p. 426)
Galileo's
long discredited views on tides and the rotation of the earth:
"Now
this (earth's rotation) is the most fundamental and effective cause
of the tides, without which they would not take place. But the particular
events observed at different times and places are many and varied;
these must depend upon diverse concomitant causes, though all must
have some connection with the fundamental cause. So our next business
is to bring up and examine the different phenomena which may be the
causes of such diverse effects." (Galileo,
Dialogue, p. 428).
Here
is a quote from Dutch astronomer Anton Pannekoek::
"The
fight now concentrated upon the Copernican system, i.e. on the movement
of the earth. Galileo believed he had found a direct proof of this movement
in the phenomena of the tides. Kepler had supposed them to be an effect
of the moon, but Galileo tried to explain them by inequalities in the
velocity of the earth's surface. This velocity is a combination of the
daily and the yearly revolutions; on the night side of the earth their
velocities combine, and on the day side toward the sun they subtract.
This, he said, makes the water of the oceans oscillate. Neglecting the
obvious dependence of the tides on the moon, he thought to find in the
tides a proof of the earth's motion. It was not convincing, because
according to his theory high and low tide should occur only once each
day." (Pannekoek, A History of Astronomy, p. 232).
Official
Chronology of Galileo
Year
|
Event |
| 1564 |
Galileo Galilei
is born in Pisa, Tuscany, the firstborn son of Florentine, Vincento
Galilei. |
| 1575 |
Galileo begins
his "studies" at the Jesuit Vallombrosa monastery about
20 miles from Florence. |
| 1576 |
Tycho
Brahe —a "real" astronomer and scientist —begins
work on his observatory on the island of Hven (heaven) between
Denmark and Sweden. |
| 1579 |
After 4 years
of indoctrination, Galileo decides to become a Jesuit novice. His
father is horrified and rescues him from the monastery. In defiance
of his father's wishes, Galileo secretly continues his Jesuit "studies"
in Florence. |
| 1581 |
Galileo enters
the university of Pisa to study medicine. |
| 1581 |
Galileo
hates medicine and tries to switch to mathematics. Because
of his troublesome behavior, Galileo is expelled from the
university without a degree. For the next 6 years he tutors privately
in mathematics. |
| 1587 |
Galileo covets
a vacant position as chairman of the mathematics department at the
University of Bologna. His "genius" alone does not commend
him for the job so he visits Rome for a recommendation. He meets
the Jesuit "astronomer" Christopher
Clavius. Clavius was the "brains" behind the Gregorian
calendar. Galileo fails to get the recommendation . . . or the job!! |
| 1589 |
With the help
of some powerful friends, Galileo finally obtains a job at the university
of Pisa. His 3 year contract is not renewed. |
| 1592 |
Galileo lands
a job as chairman of the mathematics department at the university
of Padua in the Republic of Venice. For the next 6 years he occupies
his time in lecturing and trying to invent moneymaking devices for
the Venetian military. None of his "inventions" are useful
or financially successful. He has 3 children by a prostitute named
Maria Gamba. 2 of the children end up in a convent and find out
firsthand that "it's no fun to be
a nun!!" |
| 1608 |
Hans Lippershey
invents the telescope in Holland. |
| 1609 |
Galileo steals
the design of the telescope from Hans Lippershey, makes a copy,
and sells it to the doge of Venice as his own invention!! |
| 1610 |
With
the stolen telescope and Tycho Brahe's observations, Galileo is
able to make all kinds of "discoveries" in the heavens.
He writes a book entitled Starry Messenger which becomes
a bestseller throughout Europe....People are comparing him to Columbus
and Magellan!!....He leaves Venice and becomes chief mathematician
to the grand duke of Tuscany. |
| 1610 |
Galileo's
book The Starry Messenger arrives in Prague.
Kepler lauds Galileo's book with a book of his own entitled
A Conversation with the Starry Messenger. |
| 1611 |
Galileo makes
his second journey to Rome where he is hailed as a hero. He meets
with Pope Paul V, Christopher Clavius, and Robert Bellarmine. |
| 1613 |
Galileo
commits his 2 illegitimate daughters to a nunnery. Nunneries
were the common dumping grounds for the female children of priests
and monks....Being illegitimate, they had absolutely no prospects
for marriage and only DEATH could release them from the living tomb
that was the nunnery!! |
| 1614 |
A
Dominican friar named Tommaso Caccini preaches a sermon from the
Bible entitled: "Ye men of GALILEE, why stand ye gazing up
into heaven" (Acts 1:11), and condemns Galileo for holding
the Copernicus theory of the earth's rotation. The sermon causes
a storm of controversy in Florence. |
| 1616 |
Pope Paul V
meets with Galileo, after Cardinal Bellarmine warned Galileo not
to hold or defend the heliocentric ideas of Copernicus. |
| 1621 |
Pope Paul V
has a very timely death. The next Pope, Gregory XV, dies 2 years
later but not before canonizing Jesuits Ignatius LIEola and Francis
Xavier. |
| 1624 |
Galileo makes
a 4th trip to Rome and is received with great affection by the new
Pope Urban VIII who grants him 6 interviews. |
| 1630 |
Galileo visits
Rome for the 5th time to obtain a license to print his book: Dialogue
Concerning the Two Chief World Systems. Galileo has one meeting
with Pope Urban VIII who gives him verbal . . . but not written
permission to print the book....The Dominican Inquisitor Niccolo
Riccardi advises him to make a "few" changes before publishing
the book. |
| 1632 |
Galileo's book
Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems is printed
at Florence.
|
Jan.
1633 |
Galileo
is charged with heresy by the Roman Inquisition and ordered to
appear at Rome. This is his 6th trip to Rome. He has 3 court appearance
before the Inquisition in which he finally recants his heliocentric
views. Most of the judges are Dominicans who despise the Jesuits
and their Copernican "astronomy." |
Dec.
1633 |
Galileo arrives
back in his villa near Florence. He is put under house arrest and
his movements greatly restricted. Sales of Galileo's book soar after
news of his arrest and trial spread quickly throughout Europe. |
| 1642 |
Galileo
dies and immediately becomes a martyr for "science."
His legend grows and grows until he becomes the "father"
of "science" and astronomy. Thanks to Jesuit duplicity
and publicity, he is seen as the deliverer of the world from the
outdated "unscientific" Biblical view of the earth as
the center of the universe and the sun orbiting the earth. |
Galileo
"sees" the telescope!!
Galileo
had an amazing gift of clairvoyance because he could actually "see"
the newly invented telescope before a copy actually reached him at Venice.
So accurate was his foresight that he was able to construct
a working model in 24 hours. Here is an excerpt from his own book The
Starry Messenger:
"About
ten months ago a report reached my ears that a certain Fleming had
constructed a spyglass by means of which visible objects, though very
distant from the eye of the observer, were distinctly seen as if nearby.
Of this truly remarkable effect several experiences were related,
to which some persons gave credence while others denied them. A few
days later the report was confirmed to me in a letter from a noble
Frenchman at Paris, Jacques Badovere, which caused me to apply myself
wholeheartedly to inquire into the means by which I might arrive at
the invention of a similar instrument. This I did shortly afterwards,
my basis being the theory of refraction. First I prepared a tube of
lead, at the ends of which I fitted two glass lenses, both plane on
one side while on the other side one was spherically convex and the
other concave. Then placing my eye near the concave lens I perceived
objects satisfactorily large and near, for they appeared three times
closer and nine times larger than when seen with the naked eye alone.
Next I constructed another one, more accurate, which represented objects
as enlarged more than sixty times. Finally, sparing neither labor
nor expense, I succeeded in constructing for myself so excellent an
instrument that objects seen by means of it appeared nearly one thousand
times larger and over thirty times closer than when regarded with
our natural vision."(Galileo, Starry Messenger, pp.
2-3).
Here is another
report about the same event from Galileo's book The Assayer:
"Well, my
part in the discovery of this Instrument (and whether I may reasonably
claim to be its parent) was long ago set forth In my Starry Messenger.
There I wrote that in Venice, where I happened to be at the time,
news arrived that a Fleming had presented to Count Maurice [of Nassau]
a glass by means of which distant objects might be seen as distinctly
as if they were nearby. That was all. Upon
hearing this news I returned to Padua, where I then resided, and set
myself to thinking about the problem. The first night after my return
I solved it, and on the following day I constructed the instrument
and sent word of this to those same friends at Venice with whom I
had discussed the matter the previous day. Immediately afterward
I applied myself to the construction of another and better one, which
six days later I took to Venice, where it was seen with great admiration
by nearly all the principal gentlemen of that republic for more than
a month on end, to my considerable fatigue. Finally, at the suggestion
of one of my patrons, I presented it to the Doge at a meeting of the
Council. How greatly it was esteemed by him, and with what admiration
it was received, is testified by ducal letters still in my possession.
These reveal the munificence of that serene ruler in compensation
for the invention presented to him, for I was reappointed and confirmed
for life in my professorship at the University of Padua with double
my previous salary, which was already three times that of some of
my predecessors. These acts did not take place in some forest or desert,
Sig. Sarsi; they happened in Venice, and if you had been there you
would not be dismissing me thus as a simple schoolmaster. But most
of those gentlemen are still living there, by the grace of God, and
you may be better informed by them." (Galileo, The Assayer,
p. 14).
