The God Culture: The Course of the Sun

Just when you thought you were done with Timothy Jay Schwab of the The God Culture he pulls you back in. This time it's a series about the course of the sun and the moon. All of this is based on the Book of Enoch and falls within Tim's Answers in Enoch series. 

In this article I will only be covering his videos about the sun. In essence the sun moves through portals, is powered by the wind, and the intensity of the sun's heat determines the seasons. As I noted in my previous article about the True Church I only want to focus on the big picture here. There are so many details to get lost in but the big picture is what matters.  

The Sun's Course Animation. Enoch's Scientific Observation. Answers In First Enoch Part 40

Now, the first thing I want to mention here is that Tim does not actually show the course of the sun according to Enoch animated. The so-called animation is very slow and takes half an hour or so to watch. It's like looking through a flip book one page at a time. I did this animation much better a few months ago using Tim's maps.

And he did not even copyright strike it!  

The gist of this video is that the sun moves in concentric circles through several portals located in the east and west above the Pacific Ocean over the course of the year. The sun is powered by the wind and the portals regulate the intensity of the sun's heat which determines the seasons. 

15:58 The sun is powered by the wind.

19:42 And in the fourth portal, that is the rising portal in the east, that sunrise and it is the beginning of Enoch's chart period. There's never ever any discussion to be had on the moon starting either of those measures. And in that fourth portal from which the sun rises in the first month are 12 window openings. Now, we render these on screen as best we can. We didn't see them, again, Enoch did but these are pretty good. From which, now we know because we mentioned them before, from which proceed a flame when they are opened in their seasons. So, they're fueling the sun essentially um powering it as far as the intensity of its heat depending on the season obviously. Makes perfect sense.

Now, you might ask has anyone ever seen these portals?  Well, of course not because no one has ever been to space. 

11:35 These are located in the firmament which, well, no man has actually entered into space, uh, not in any vehicle built by man it's never happened and we're not gonna go into all of that in this video but check it out you really should research that if you have not. No one has ever reached it except Enoch among men.

What is he talking about?  There is an International Space Station orbiting the earth! Astronauts flew into space and repaired the Hubble telescope! Men have taken balloons into space and then jumped back to the earth! If Tim wants to say no man has gone to the moon that is one thing but to say no man has ever been to space?? Well, that is just completely wrong and totally ignorant.

It's really the second video where all of his theories about the sun come into full bloom because this is where Tim "tests" them. 

Testing The Sun's Courses of First Enoch. Modern Scientism Fails! Answers In First Enoch Part 41

Now, what is meant by testing? Is it rigorous math, experimentation, and observation using a telescope over a period of months or years like Galileo and Copernicus?  No. It's just regular old observation with your eyeballs because observation apparently tumps experimentation. 

18:59 Forget what you see that's what they're going to tell you. We are right, your eyes are wrong. I'm sorry that's unscientific as the definition of science is observation and experiment. Neither have been conducted by these, who are creating these ridiculous theories. They have neither. We have eyes though and we do observe, do we not? You can see it on screen.

If you listen to that you can hear Tim SHOUT the word observation and whisper the word experiment. Tim is going to disprove the tilt of the earth by using his eyes alone.

Here is the picture Tim uses to disprove the earth is tilting on its axis. 

This photograph is supposed to thoroughly rebut the fact that the earth is tilting and it is round. Is Tim really unaware that this photo is one tiny fraction of the earth's surface? The curvature of the earth was proved by experiments that happened simultaneously at places hundreds of miles apart which measured the length of shadows at the same time on the same day.

Eratosthenes heard about a famous well in the Egyptian city of Swenet (Syene in Greek, and now known as Aswan), on the Nile River. At noon one day each year — the summer solstice (between June 20 and June 22) — the Sun’s rays shone straight down into the deep pit. They illuminated only the water at the bottom, not the sides of the well as on other days, proving that the Sun was directly overhead. (Syene was located very close to what we call the Tropic of Cancer, 23.5 degrees north, the northernmost latitude at which the Sun is ever directly overhead at noon.)

Eratosthenes erected a pole in Alexandria, and on the summer solstice he observed that it cast a shadow, proving that the Sun was not directly overhead but slightly south. Recognizing the curvature of the Earth and knowing the distance between the two cities enabled Eratosthenes to calculate the planet’s circumference.

Eratosthenes could measure the angle of the Sun’s rays off the vertical by dividing the length of the leg opposite the angle (the length of the shadow) by the leg adjacent to the angle (the height of the pole). This gave him an angle of 7.12 degrees. He knew that the circumference of Earth constituted a circle of 360 degrees, so 7.12 (or 7.2, to divide 360 evenly by 50) degrees would be about one-fiftieth of the circumference. He also knew the approximate distance between Alexandria and Syene, so he could set up this equation:

Eratosthenes estimated the distance from Alexandria to Syene as 5,000 stadia, or about 500 miles (800 kilometers). He made this estimation from the time it took walkers, who were trained to measure distances by taking regular strides, to trek between the cities. By solving the equation, he calculated a circumference of 250,000 stadia, or 25,000 miles (40,000 kilometers).

Carl Sagan explains this experiment in the first episode of Cosmos more succinctly than I could ever hope to. You can watch that clip here. The thing to remember is you cannot always trust your eyes especially when it comes to the tricks light can play. In fact you cannot always trust any of your senses. How many times have people thought they were smelling gas when it was just Durian? That is why experimentation is needed and Tim offers zero experimentation in this video. 

As I noted in the first video Tim spends about 30 minutes tracking the course of the sun according to Enoch. He also states that the portals the sun passes through fuel the sun which causes the seasons.

So, they're fueling the sun essentially, um, powering it as far as the intensity of its heat depending on the season obviously. Makes perfect sense.

In the second video he proves this out by showing the monthly temperatures in the Philippines. He also uses other locales but the Philippines is what matters most of all.

26:47 Then December - January, again, middle month, middle month, uh, as well should make up the two coldest months. And what do we find? Exactly that! The coldest months in the Philippines.

Does Tim really live in San Fernando, La Union? The Philippines does not get cold! It is summer time all year round. That goes for all the equatorial nations especially island nations. While there might be a relatively slight chill in December and January there is no snow. There is no ice.  There is no winter here like in Maryland which is Tim's home state. In fact there are no seasons in the Philippines except wet and dry. 

Here is the graph he is using for the Philippines.

https://www.worlddata.info/asia/philippines/climate.php

The average temperature hardly fluctuates from month to month. But if Tim's flat earth model of the sun entering and exiting portals in concentric circles with the intensity of its heat determining the seasons is correct they should vary more profoundly. We don't see that. Also if the location of the sun as per Tim's map is what determines the seasons then in December - January Antarctica should be blazing hot and the Sahara desert should be chilly. That is not the case as the climate remains stable all year round in those locales.

Tim's assertion that the heat of sun is fueled by the portals in the sky is asinine in the extreme. When it's summer in the Northern hemisphere it is winter in the Southern hemisphere and vice versa. The intensity of the sun's heat cannot account for winter in the south and summer in the north at the same time. Not to mention Tim does not show any measurements of the sun's temperature to bolster his claims. If the sun's temperature is fluctuating he should be able to show proof of that and then show how that causes the seasons. He does not even attempt to give such proof. Instead he relies on temperature charts for various locations. And how about the polar caps? They don't melt in summer and freeze in winter because it is always below freezing in those places. It's ridiculous.

I want to end here with a note about the North Pole and directions on a flat earth map.

https://youtu.be/ksPELTKJUlk?t=2509

41:49 Verse 27: "and the sun has therewith traverse the divisions of his orbit." It has completed all six gates at this point on both sides so all the gates it's entered. Uh, so they're all represented and that's all he's saying here. The east and the west which we have observed at this point if you followed all the way through. "And turns again on those divisions of his orbit." So, basically he's going to head back in the other direction. Um, "and enters that portal," uh, meaning, uh, north south not east west he always, it always rises in the east sets in the west. Of course. I shouldn't need to mention that but I know for some I do or there'd be a blog about how we don't know. Right? Idiot. 

Far be it from me to say Tim does not know the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. But what I will say is cardinal directions on a flat earth map are meaningless. Look at the North Pole!  It's in the center of the map! How is the center of the earth north? Likewise though Tim has the sun moving through east and west portals he also has the sun moving downwards or southerly. And he even acknowledges this in his video just before he mocks this blog! In fact, no matter what direction you travel on the flat earth you would ALWAYS be traveling towards the Antarctic wall or "South" even if you were trekking toward the North Pole! That is absurd!

As I noted these are just the highlights of these two videos. There is a lot of nonsense in both of them and I dare say Testing the Sun's Courses is Timothy Jay Schwab's most ignorant video to date. I had to pause so many times until I was able to contain my laughter. 

To sum this up Tim, along with Enoch, claims the heat of the sun is what determines the seasons. But that cannot be possible because the seasons are reversed in the Northern and Southern hemispheres. Also certain places like the Philippines and the Sahara maintain the same climate all year long. But even if it were true Tim offers no scientific proof. He doesn't even offer temperature readings of the sun. There is more astronomy to come from Timothy Jay Schwab of The God Culture as he will be discussing the course and purpose of the moon. I am sure it will be something to howl about!
