Origins of the Globe Myth: A Complete Breakdown

 1. Ancient Flat Earth Cosmologies (Pre-500 BC to ~300 AD)

For the majority of human history, the world was understood as:

• Stationary

• Flat and enclosed (usually under a dome/firmament)

• Geocentric (sun, moon, and stars moving above)

This wasn’t “primitive belief”—it was based on direct observation, sacred geometry, and coherent cosmologies:

• Hebrew texts (Genesis, Job, Psalms)

• Babylonian and Sumerian models

• Norse Yggdrasil

• Mayan and Hindu systems

• Ancient Egyptian cosmology

✳️ Key point: Across all early cultures, the globe did not exist.

 2. The Greek Infiltration (~300 BC onward)

• Pythagoras (c. 500 BC): Proposed a spherical Earth—purely philosophical

• Aristotle (c. 330 BC): Misinterpreted ship hulls and shadows

• Eratosthenes (c. 240 BC): Stick shadow experiment—also works on flat Earth

The Greeks pushed abstract models over direct experience. Elite circles embraced it—but the masses did not.

 3. Roman and Early Church Period (100–1000 AD)

• Most people still held a flat, enclosed Earth view

• Figures like Lactantius and Cosmas rejected the globe

• Church doctrine was biblically geocentric

BUT: Greek elitism merged with Church authority, laying the groundwork for change.

 4. The Copernican Revolution (1543 onward)

• Copernicus proposes heliocentrism in 1543 (as a model, not fact)

• Rise of the Jesuits (1540) and Council of Trent (1545–63)

• The printing press spreads the idea rapidly

Why? To undermine biblical cosmology, shift focus from Earth and man to cold, vast space.

A demotion from divine purpose to cosmic accident.

 5. Newton, Gravity & the Mechanistic Universe (1600s–1700s)

• Newton invents gravity to explain how people don’t fall off the globe

• Universe becomes soulless and mechanical

• Earth now a spinning water ball in a vacuum

This era:

• Cemented the globe in elite thought

• Birth of scientism

• Erased previous cosmologies

 6. 1800s – Indoctrination Begins

• Globe enters schools after 1850s

• Royal Society and friends marginalise dissent

• Flat Earth Society is created to ridicule real critics

• Space science foundations begin to form

Maps changed. Books rewritten. Belief in flat Earth becomes synonymous with madness.

 7. NASA, Fake Space & the Ultimate Illusion (1958 onward)

• NASA founded in 1958

• Same year as Antarctic Treaty—locking down the edge

• Moon landing in 1969: filmed hoax to emotionally seal the globe lie

Fake space gives:

• Control over the sky

• A bottomless money siphon

• A reason to deny access to Antarctica

 WHY THE GLOBE MYTH WAS INVENTED

To:

1. Sever divine connection

2. Make humanity small, powerless, and lost

3. Support evolution, scarcity, and globalism

4. Control perception through science-as-religion

5. Redirect spiritual longing into endless materialism
