Canon of 400 - The Sun & Moon Size to Distance Ratio

in #philosophy7 years ago

So I have a question for anybody curious enough to click on this page.

Ever wonder why we have total solar eclipses?

I'm sure you know the answer already.

The moon passes in front of the sun every so often and causes it to black out the sun but leave the corona visible.

Why is this so special?

Well have you ever considered the odds of such an event taking place?

I mean the odds that the sun & moon would appear the same size in our sky.

This happens solely due to an optical illusion which is the size and distance of the sun & moon are exactly the same ratio.

The ratio I am referring to is the canon of 400 which was first described by the Hindus.

The sun is 400 times larger than the moon and is also 400 times further away from us.

If the moon was created by random processes the odds of this happening by chance are astronomical.

Let alone if we factor in the odds an intelligent species would be alive to witness the event while it is happening.

We know the moon is moving away from us so this phenomenon is "temporary" even tho it lasts for millions of years.

So in conclusion I wanted to get you to think about our place in the universe and how this applies to our place in it.

We are either the biggest fluke to possibly happen or something put us here.

From a simply mathematical standpoint I find it highly unlikely we arouse from random chaos.

If you disagree please feel free to share in the comments but if you think I'm lying about this stuff look it up.

Earth is the biggest lottery ticket to ever hit with odds so astronomical it makes the real lottery look like a sure thing...

Sort:  

maybe they appear the same size because they are... Flat earth with local small same size sun and moon is much more realistic way to see reality because is what we see with our sense and what we can calculate with trigonometry...

It's not flat Earth bro they knew the Earth was a sphere in ancient times. Next time don't spam my page with your pseudo science. You wanna debate that's fine but you're wrong about flat Earth. BTW Eric Dubay is a quack IMO...It's this Christian flat Earth bullshit that gives real wise Christians a bad name.

sorry if i make you feel bad..

Sorry you took the logical part of your brain and decided it wasn't worth using... I don't like the spam that's why you got what you got. Your message to me is pointless. If people believe in flat Earth then they are too stupid to be helped...

sorry you have your mind so closed that you can't see beyond the system that indoctrinate you from childhood with false reality

Sorry you're paranoid and believe things that make no logical sense. If your flat earth theory had weight I'd believe it but it's so obviously flawed that if you believe it I assume you willfully deny evidence in order to support your claim. Come to Canada and see how our shadows change with the seasons. Please enlighten me as to how the flat earth accounts for changing shadows which proves the earth is a sphere and rotates around the sun. Did you ever think maybe there is a theory that isn't flat earth but isn't evolution either. Do you really think God needs the Earth to be flat in order to exist? I'm sorry but your wrong and I can prove it so I will not be entertaining your theory. Science is not evil or wrong but the interpretation of the data could be wrong. I agree textbooks are flawed and incomplete but flat earth is not the answer... You will never change my mind so if that's your intent I'd give up now if I was you. It's not indoctrination it's called logic. Try using it & learn some math along the way...

bro, no problem, the explanation for the shadows are that the sun goes from Capricorn tropic to the Cancer tropic in the time of a half year, so the sun is more close to the center of earth (nort pole) in July when is up to the capricorn tropic and more close to Antarctica in December, when is up to cancer tropic obviously in this model the sun is very close to the earth and is the same size than moon..
here a video about exactly the way season works

Real science show us a flat horizon in any altitude, and that is fact. Nasa and all the space agencies only show false images, cgi planets, and astronauts in zero-g planes or with harnesses... Is very obvious, you don't must to be paranoid to see all this hoax. I just using logic, you are only repeating what you learned in school or in movies. maybe one day you take this subject more seriously and research it, is clear for me that you don't even have seeing any flat earth video, you don't understand the model, is very different to heliocentric model, you need to learn a lot of things to understand why heliocentric model is wrong and how a model more accurate with reality works. Peace and don't get angry, is only debating, is pointless insult each other bro. Blessings

Everything you're saying is non sense tho. It's hard to debate someone who clearly has no understanding of the nature of reality. Ok so you can explain the shadows although you really can't because that explanation doesn't work. So why does the temperature change as well? Why is the moon round but earth is flat. Your theory is complete non sense and all you're doing is regurgitating some nut jobs thesis he put up on youtube. None of what you're saying is fact and the curve is very real. I suppose for some people science is too daunting and raises questions some people can't handle so they willfully choose ignorance. P.S. I repeat what I learn through research and backing up those sources by finding more than one person that agrees. You are completely brainwashed by youtube and you're no better than the ones you claim to be sheep. The Earth is not flat that is a FACT. The only people who thought the Earth was flat was people during the dark ages.Even the ancients knew the Earth was a sphere. The idea copernicus discovered the heliocentric model is hilarious. White folks haven't discovered anything that someone before us didn't already know. I'm sorry you're a Dubay groupie but the guy is mentally retarded. His science is flat out wrong and I cringe hearing him talk smart. His law of perspective doen't exist as a law and his theory is complete dog shit. Your logic is obviously flawed if you think the flat earth model makes any sense whatsoever. Learn how your mind works before you go trusting it. Just because it looks flat outside doesn't mean it is... lol

Oh and yes I've watched your flat earth videos and they make me cringe. The science is wrong and the people are nuts. Not one guy in those videos has a girlfriend lol coincidence? Doubtful.

Please explain why the sun & moon have irregular orbits "above" the Earth. Why does the moon have phases? What are asteroids & why do we have them? What are the planets and stars & why do we have them? What causes the tides if gravity doesn't exist? Do you believe man has discovered the laws of physics? Is physics a hoax? What about math? Is math a conspiracy and doesn't really exist? Do you not see how ridiculous your theory is when faced with criticism? Can you explain how the sun generates heat? How a lunar eclipse happens? What about GPS? Let me guess it's a hoax that your GPS can find you in the middle of nowhere with no connection to anything other than this "hoax" satellite that transmits real data I can really use. It's all a hoax because it doesn't fit your model. Sorry but your wrong and the earth is a sphere that rotates and orbits the sun. Just because science figured some stuff out doesn't mean they know everything. Like I think believing we came from chance is also foolish but that's what school taught me. Difference is believing we came from chance is still a theory without evidence. The Earth being a sphere has evidence but the Earth coming from a cloud of dust and gas billions of years ago has no real evidence. So science is good & true but depending on the data and the interpretation. Just because we discovered we are but a pinpoint in the universe we also know Earth is special and may be the only place like this in the whole universe. So what I'm saying is flat earth is not true because the "evidence" doesn't exist. But jut because the earth a sphere and orbits the sun does not make this place any less special. We live on a cosmic lottery ticket that hit big time but I don't believe it was chance I believe we are here because of somethings will for us to be here. Destiny is real and life is weird and filled with mystery but the flat earth shit I'll never ride with it's complete non sense. God is so great he doesn't need to make things according to the flat earth model to exist. Just wait till mainstream science starts proving his existence...
