About this ebook

In this compelling work on Flat Earth Theory, David Waldo Scott uses a collection of scripture, reason, and fact to argue against the idea that the earth is a planet.

Since its publication in 1901, Terra Firma: the Earth Not a Planet, Proved From Scripture, Reason, and Fact has become one of the primary texts on the subject and is a wonderful insight into the philosophy of a bygone age. Focussing on the work made by ‘modern astronomers’, Scott draws on testimonies from travellers past, biblical scriptures, as well as other concepts from flat earth theorists to produce a wide-ranging collection of evidence to support his argument.

Chapters in the book include:

- The Adamic Creation

- The Nebular Hypothesis: Examination of Three Alleged Proofs of the World’s Globularity

- The World Circular, But Not Globular; Has Immovable Foundations, Therefore Not a Planet

- The Horizontally of Land and Water Proved

- The Sun, Moon, and Stars, According to Modern Astronomy

- The Deluge – Biblical Account

Despite being written over a decade ago, this work by David Waldo Scott continues to inspire modern generations. This edition by Read & Co. Books features an introduction to astronomy and is an interesting read for those interested in Flat Earth Theory and Christianity.

Ratings and reviews

Why are there time zones? Why is the mast the 1st part of a ship visible at the horizon? Why can't you see china with a telescope? Why does water circle the drain in the opposite direction in the southern hemisphere? The answer to these questions is the earth is a globe. Why lie about the shape of the earth, what is there to gain? How can you people read this book on a smartphone, downloaded wirelessly & stored electronically and, not believe science? Did God it's self tell you the earth is flat? You flatearthers are a strange & frightening group, mostly cause you are fundamentalist Christians and your faith is judgemental, intolerant &, bloodthirsty and all of these qualities are actually things Jesus would tell you would bar your entry to heaven.

People might discredit this book due to it publication date but let's be honest. Issac Newton published his book on gravity in 1687 and we teach it to the kids! There are dozens of valid points in this book and the ignorant globe believer will choose with their ignorance that this book is false.

An excellent common sense book from the turn of the century 1900 ad. If you dare face an unpopular truth , this will help with the evidence. May God be true and every man a liar, amen.
