Allegory of a flat Earth event

Imaging a scenario on exchanging intellectual knowledge of our world many centuries ago, which happened in a time when and the elites of various cultures had officially agreed that Earth is flat, and it is the center of the universe.

For the night sky observations, people from the northern hemisphere exposed only to the north celestial pole, in its frame of reference, observed that stars moved in a counterclockwise direction. And people from the southern hemisphere exposed only to the south celestial pole, in its frame of reference, observed that stars moved in a clockwise direction. This is a manifestation of a natural dualism, which apparently demonstrates contradicting characteristics of empirical observations with validated localized perceptions based on their flat Earth models.

The star trails of north celestial pole

The star trails of south celestial pole

To observe this manifestation of natural dualism in motions, download "Worldwide telescope", set the [Look At] to [Sky] mode, then in the [View] tab set the [Observing Location] to seperately observe stars from both hemispheres in the skies toward their poles with sped up timing (set in [Observing Time]) for observing the motions of those stars.

Over time, scholars from both hemispheres in the past established all sorts of a posteriori knowledge of the universe based on their flat Earth models, and eventually, the representatives from both sides of the world had met for forum discussions. Inevitably, in the event, a group from one hemisphere would have had ended up to acutely disagree with the other group from the other hemisphere. Under all possible negated circumstances, their comparisons would show that some details of their knowledge conflicted severely, and some of their propositions were fundamentally opposite.

Without being enlightened that Earth is a spheroidal planet rotating and revolving around the Sun, misled by localized observations in unsuspected delusions with naturally rendered cognitive paradoxes, in their illusions of knowledge, all at then were like fools adamantly insisting they were correct with their flat Earth models.

“The illusion of knowing in a delusion, is apparently real in its cognitive paradox.” - UVS inspired -

In the flat world delusion, people established all sorts of fallacious posits with their negated perceptions of localized observations, and believed the realms of their flat Earth models is the reality, and therefore have had insidiously corrupted all the studies of such observations. In eruptions of heated arguments with the attachments to their first principles, and thus have had undergone many irresolvable conflicts, therefore the authority from one group could never have had agreed with the authority of the other group at all.

“A fallaciously endorsed posit of a scientific model,
is the mother of all its science delusions.” - UVS inspired -

With knowledge of modern science, we now know beyond doubt that our Earth is not a flat one, and also understand the belief that Earth is the center of universe, was established in a delusion of the empirically observed relative motion illusion. Most of us now can comprehend without a slightest doubt in general acceptance that the spheroidal Earth rotates, and it revolves around the Sun in the Solar System; we now know that all of us on the spheroidal Earth are turning in the same rotating direction and move in the same revolving path. However, for millenniums in the past, negated by the paradoxical effect of nature, many people from all over the whole wide world, in one way or the other, were misled by the natural delusion to firmly believe that Earth is flat, and it is the center fo the universe.

“Without realizing the cognitive paradoxes that negate to cause delusions in the observable universe,
the paradoxical effect of nature has had fooled even the very intelligent people.” - UVS inspired -

Although Galileo through telescopic observations had shown that planets are spheroidal in shape, had conclusively proven that some planets revolve around the Sun, and he inferred that Earth is not unique among the planets. However, Galileo's spherical Earth postulation was officially rejected during the geocentric era.

“By denying scientific principles, one may maintain any paradox.” - Galileo Galilei, "Father of science".

William Carpenter (1830-1896) published "A hundred proofs the Earth is not a Globe" based on his consistence description logic and reasoning that were supported with direct observations as evidence for Earth is not a Globe. Galileo might not have had understood those ancient navigation techniques in fine details than a skipper who had adopted the belief that Earth is flat, thus in critiques with description logic against the spherical Earth postulation in a rhetorical manner with such fallacies of affirming the consequent, it was refuted as junk science by such experts; Galileo's spherical Earth proposition in such manners was deliberated as nonsensical with the fallacy of argumentum verbosium. In the very obvious of hindsight, the flat Earth model is fundamentally incorrect, all proofs for Earth is not a globe are fallacious, these were as a result of localized perceptions in the paradoxical effect of nature, and ignorance to a transcendental level of the perceptions.

A flat Earth model

“The history of our study of our solar system shows us clearly that accepted and conventional ideas
are often wrong, and that fundamental insights can arise from the most unexpected sources.” - Carl Sagan

Nowadays, it has been generally said that Galileo lived in the time and place where the authority for flat Earth was ruling, and thus the proposition of a spherical Earth that is not the center of universe at then was dogmatically treated as heresy. Therefore, there were huge disparities at then for their communities to consider flat Earth is a myth, or accept the proposition of a spherical Earth at all.

The majority of people, and this includes most scientists, generally believe the prejudices and discriminations like those stemmed from the flat Earth model in its science delusion, were events of the past. Moreover, there is also a prevalent deep-rooted belief that we are now in the Golden age of physics, and scientific realism rules with unassailable scientific proofs. It is claimed that all the scientifically established proofs were rigorously proven with their scientific experiments, accomplished with the well-established scientific method of modern science, so any critical discrepancy in the validated scientific theories, would have had been eradicated.

Uunwarily, in states of delusion, like the theories based on the flat Earth model, the posits of many scientific theories of modern science were fallaciously justified with all sorts of cognitive paradox fallacies. And unsustainably, the official mainstream modern science is established on all sorts of foundational crisis, and thus all its a posteriori theories of empirically observed natural phenomena, were fundamentally established in the fallacies of their science delusions.

See the UVS topics on "Critiques of the scientific method", "Qualitative evaluation on time dilation", "Michelson-Morley experiment reviewed with UVS" for elucidations on the delusions of modern science that are fundamentally critical, "Logic and belief systems" that elaborates on logical fallacies of belief systems, "An apparently paradoxical universe", "The illusion of knowing and the illusion of having control", and "Delusory inversed illusions" for the illustrations on some delusions of empirically observed natural phenomena.

“In the paradoxes of universal delusion, advocating the subliminally negated
actualities of natural phenomena, is inevitably a revolutionary act.” - UVS inspired -

Disclaimers: The treatise of Universal Vortical Singularity (UVS) in its epistemological paradigm shift, is fundamentally unconventional. Its hypotheses grounded on a generally unheard-of UVS model, bound to have shortcomings, such as loose ends, errors, and omissions errors. Many details and assumptions in its propositions have yet to be further researched, probed, evaluated, validated, or verified. Its implicit explanations are for casual understanding of the UVS topics presented in the UVS worldview, so if any term or statement is offensive in any manner from whatsoever perspectives, is most regretted.
