China has announced they are going to the moon and they plan to do it by the year 2030.
The Deputy Director of China’s Manned Space Agency quoted Mao and stated “We can clasp the moon in the ninth heaven” and they plan to go to the moon in less than 7 years.
The announcement by China comes shortly after the United States Space Force announced they are ready for war in space.

Here’s what DNYUZ reported:
China plans to complete a mission to land a person on the moon by 2030, a government official announced on Monday, in the highest-level confirmation of China’s ambitions for a crewed lunar landing.
Chinese scientists have previously nodded at a 2030 goal in a less formal capacity; for example, the chief designer of China’s lunar exploration program said last month that a 2030 landing would be “no problem.”
“We can clasp the moon in the ninth heaven,” Lin Xiqiang, the deputy director of China’s Manned Space Agency, said at a news conference on Monday, quoting a Mao Zedong poem.
ADVERTISEMENTMr. Lin said the moon landing project, part of the country’s broader Lunar Exploration Project — also known as the Chang’e Project, for the Chinese moon goddess — had “recently” been kick-started, though he did not offer specifics. The project would also seek to enable short-term stays on the lunar surface, as well as collect samples and conduct research, he said.
One major announcement by CMSA in the Shenzhou-16 press briefing is the crewed lunar landing in full swing, including Long March 10, lunar lander, new generation crewed spacecraft, lunar space suits, heavy rocket launch facility, etc.
And, they say BEFORE 2030 https://t.co/16IWic1YoT pic.twitter.com/I64hZhfnuV— China 'N Asia Spaceflight 🚀𝕏 🛰️ (@CNSpaceflight) May 29, 2023
Here’s what AP reported:
China’s burgeoning space program plans to place astronauts on the moon before 2030 and expand the country’s orbiting space station, officials said Monday.
Monday’s announcement comes amid against the background of a rivalry with the U.S. for reaching new milestones in outer space, reflecting their competition for influence on global events.
That has conjured up memories of the space race between the U.S. and the former Soviet Union in the 1960s and 1970s, although American spending, supply chains and capabilities are believed to give it a significant edge over China, at least for the present.

But…has ANYONE ever actually gone to the moon?
Before you say that’s a ridiculous question, I challenge you to keep reading…
So We Never Landed On The Moon?
Earlier today I was joking around on Twitter and I posted this Tweet below…
Read this.
But read it slowly:
Call me a conspiracy theorist, but I am convinced we never landed a man on the sun. #ProveMeWrong
— DailyNoah.com (@DailyNoahNews) March 4, 2023
If you don’t get it, read it again.
It’s a joke.
A stolen joke, I admit it.
It was a throwaway joke from the inimitable Norm Macdonald.
Miss that guy so much, but at least we have YouTube.
Anyway, back to the serious topic at hand.
While I was joking in the tweet above, a very serious question remains: Did we truly go to the moon back in 1969?
Now you might think that’s a crazy question, but if you start to dig into it you quickly realize there is a very logical, rational, and evidence-based argument to claim that no, we did not.
COULD not have done it even if we wanted to!
So I wanted to show this interview to you.
This is Patrick Bet David, a guy who I’ve really come to respect.
PBD plays it right down in the middle in this one, challenging his guest Bart Sibrel but doing it respectfully and allowing him to state his case.
And his case is remarkable clear.
Some people get caught up in analyzing the photos and the shadows and all this other nonsense or the reflections in the glass and claiming it was faked because of some really hard to follow technical details.
Sibrel doesn’t do that.
He simply states a very clear and logical case that goes like this:
In order to believe we landed on the moon in 1969 you have to believe this simple claim:
ADVERTISEMENTThat we went 1,000 times FARTHER than we can currently send astronauts today…
50 years ago…
On the first attempt…
With one-millionth the computing power of today’s cell phone!
In fact, Werner von Braun, the lead scientist of the space mission for NASA, stated the odds of them going to the moon, successfully, with 1960s technolgoy, was a 1 in 10,000 chance!
That’s your lead brainiac saying that!
There is no other example in history where we achieved a technological advancement and then 50 years later could not replicate it.
No other example in history.
In every other example, we are not only replicating it but exceeding it just a few years later.
Certainly, 50 years later the advancement from that first breakthrough is many multiples greater.
And yet, not so with the moon.
We haven’t been back.
No other country has been back.
In fact, NASA now says the technology to do it “hasn’t been invented yet!”
Why?
Because there’s a massive thing called the Van Allen Radiation Belts that would cook you alive!
The clip of the NASA rocket scientist saying that is right in the video below.
So without further adieu, I give you Patrick Bet David asking Bart Sibrel: was the moon landing FAKED?

If that caught your attention, let’s go much deeper…
A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Moon…
WARNING! WARNING!
Time for another installment of hard-hitting investigative journalism…where we aren’t afraid to create a little cognitive dissonance along the way!
Some of you will be very bothered by this article…
“How dare he question the moon landings!”
Sorry folks, but we don’t create the news here…we just report on it.
We also don’t create the “truth”…we just seek it out and set it free.
So buckle up buttercup, this could get bumpy for a few of you.
I can already hear many others saying “it’s about time Noah covered this!”
So here we go….
Did Buzz Aldrin just admit (again) that the moon landings were faked?
Well, it sure looks like it.
But we’ll give you all the evidence and let you decide.
A clip of Buzz Aldrin on Conan O’Brien’s Late Night Show from 2000 is suddenly going viral right now thanks to this post on TikTok:
@msmastafoxx Wait Til The End…🧐 #MsMastaFoXX #MyCreatorLife #Buzz #buzzaldrin #Nasa #Conspiracy #conspiracytiktok #Woketok #Viral #fyp #conanobrien #MoonLanding
In the clip, Buzz pretty clearly says the video of the astronauts walking on the moon was fake.
I don’t know how else you interpret that.
I mean, I know this is a comedy show, but nothing about this clip appears to be a joke or a bit.
Even Conan is taken aback and temporarily at a loss for how to respond (and it’s his job to never be caught off guard as a talk show host).
So watch the clip for yourself.
And for anyone shouting “CONTEXT!” I’ve got you covered.
Here is the full interview to watch the segment in context:
The Reuters Fact-Check team has already investigated and determined what you heard Buzz say is totally “False”.
Just another one we all got wrong!
God bless the fact-checkers, I don’t know where we’d be without them!
So somehow they’ve labeled this as “False” despite the part I bolded below where they seem to even admit that the footage is, in fact, mostly made of animations.
This is their full report:
Social media users are sharing a video of astronaut Buzz Aldrin being interviewed by American television host Conan O’Brien and claiming that Aldrin discussing parts of the moon landing broadcasts being animated is proof that it was all faked.
He was referring to animations used by broadcasters at the time in their coverage of the moon landing, intercut with real footage. The moon landing did take place and men did walk on the moon.
Examples of the erroneous social media posts can be seen ( here ) and ( here ).
A longer video of the interview, dated May 17, 2000, can be seen on YouTube ( here ).
At the 1:29 mark, O’Brien says: “Let’s talk about this because this is fascinating. I remember very clearly; I think anybody who was alive at the time does. I remember my parents waking me up and we went down, and we watched you guys land on the moon.”
Aldrin responds: “No, you didn’t. Because there wasn’t any television, there wasn’t anybody taking the picture. You watched animation so you associated what you saw with… you heard me talking about, you know, how many feet we’re going to the left and right and then I said contact light, engine stopped, a few other things and then Neil said ‘Houston, tranquility base. The Eagle has landed.’ How about that? Not a bad line.”
The moon landing took place on July 20, 1969 with astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin. NASA said in 2006 that no one could find the original video recordings of the July 20, 1969, landing. However, in 2009 NASA released a complete digital make-over of the original landing footage that clarifies the blurry and grainy images of Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walking on the surface of the moon ( here ).
A video compiled by CNN shows the available footage from the mission ( here ), including takeoff and the astronauts climbing down and walking on the moon.
An article ( here ) by the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum explains the challenges of recording footage of the moon landing and walking.
NASA contracted with Westinghouse for a black and white camera costing $2.29 million to capture the iconic moment, according to the museum. Photographs of the camera, which was stored in the lunar module’s Modular Equipment Stowage Assembly near the ladder Armstrong can be seen climbing down, can be seen ( here ).
“For us today, we can thank technicians for having recorded the broadcast, though the tapes assumed to be of the highest quality were never located despite searches for them in the last few decades,” the article reads. “What we see now on YouTube or in films are high definition scans of those best available copies.”
An article by Vox ( here ) says some television networks built sets to recreate some of the moments that were not able to be captured on video.
The National Science and Media Museum discussed the Apollo 11 broadcast on its website ( here ): “Many broadcasters used simulations to flesh out their Apollo programming. Networks paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for scale models of Apollo command modules and rockets. During the broadcast, these were used to create simulations of the mission which were then intercut with real footage.”
“The thing to remember is what news was like in the late 1960’s, not 24-hour continuous coverage,” Margaret Weitekamp, Chair of the Space History Department at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum, said by phone. “The coverage of that trip needed to be explained to the public without the ability for continuous relay of video we are now used to.”
“Animations would have been a part of a constellation of different ways that that story was told over a series of days. At the time, the coverage would have been combined with animations that helped provide a broader picture of what was being done. But this certainly doesn’t invalidate that those landings took place.”
There is no evidence that the moon landing was faked or that astronauts did not walk on the moon. However, there is plenty of evidence that it happened. Reports about the landing can be seen ( here ), ( here ) and ( here ).
Photographs of the moon landing can be seen ( here ), ( here ), and ( here ).
Reuters has previously debunked claims that the moon landing was faked ( here ), ( here ), ( here ).
VERDICT
False. Astronaut Buzz Aldrin explaining that broadcasters used animations during their coverage of the moon landing does not prove that it was faked.
But that’s far from the first time Buzz has seemed to admit the whole thing was a fake.
You have to wonder if on his death bed Buzz will finally and unequivocally confess to the fake?
Watch this clip on Rumble where an 8-year old girl asks Buzz why we never went back to the moon after 1972…
A GREAT question!
Because there is no other example in recorded history where something new was discovered and then we just stopped going there.
Imagine discovering America in 1492 and then the Europeans just decided to never send another boat.
Right, didn’t happen.
Would never happen.
Doesn’t pass the smell test.
So watch this short clip where Buzz says the reason we never went back is because we never went in the first place!
It must have felt good to finally get that off his chest I guess?
And again, if you want the full context and full interview, I have that here:
Oh, then there was this gem…
Bart Sibrel (more on him in a minute) caught Buzz one day out on the street and he asked him something simple: swear on this Bible that you actual went to the moon.
Buzz becomes visibly agitated and then punches Bart in the face.
Watch:
https://twitter.com/HaymakerHub/status/1528208649306390528
Cause that’s normal, right?
For more on Bart, his book Moon Man is a must read:
Bart is most famously known for his film: A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Moon.
For anyone who believes the moon landings are 100% real and beyond any reproach, I challenge you to watch this 45 minute video and then report back to me.
I’ve never heard from anyone who has watched this and not had their eyes opened:
Backup here (since that will likely get taken down by the Tube):
And one more backup here:
Now let’s examine the big Press Conference Buzz, Neil and the third guy had when they got back from WALKING ON THE FREAKING MOON!
You’d think they’d have smiles from ear to ear that simply wouldn’t wipe off…right?
You know, something like how Sir Edmund Hillary looked after climbing Mount Everest — see below:
Look at how happy sir Edmund Hillary is and Tenzing Norgay they just climbed mount Everest
Look at buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong and Mike Collins they look like they were at a funeral they are obviously lying at this press conference they never went to the moon.They know the lie pic.twitter.com/mEqjsPTfYH— Persia❤️ اریایی (@roya21042019) February 16, 2022
Nope!
Instead they looked like this…☝️
You might say they looked exactly as you or I might look if you had just faked a Moon Landing and deceived and entire nation.
But that’s just my take, you be the judge.
Do these look like guys who just walked on the Moon?
Buzz Aldrin & Neil Armstrong at the first press conference after returning to Earth.
Three truth tellers. The look of confidence, honesty & pure happiness after the greatest accomplishment in modern history.
Wow! These guys are my idols. 👨🚀 pic.twitter.com/1onOk2IeAk
— An0maly (@LegendaryEnergy) August 18, 2019
You can watch the whole solemn press conference here on Rumble — it’s stunning:
So…did Neil and Buzz and the third guy really walk on the Moon?
Or was it all faked?
And if it was faked, was it faked because….it has to be?
Perhaps because there is a FIRMAMENT over our world, like Genesis tells us?
It’s literally in the first 7 verses of the Bible, almost as if God wanted to make it pretty hard to miss?
Genesis 1:
7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
Almost as if we couldn’t be through the firmament, let alone get to the Moon, even if we wanted to?
If this is blowing your mind, then I’m only getting started.

Biblical Trees Beyond the Ice Wall…?
Our governments and the so-called “Elites” have lied to us for a long time about just about everything, and I think it’s HIGHLY likely that they are lying to us about the shape of the Earth and the nature of where we live.
Everyone still ok?
Did we lose anyone?
Well buckle up buttercup because it’s about to get wild!
This article is probably going to be one of the most controversial things I have posted in a long time.
And I’m ok with that.
I know some people will judge a book by its cover and immediately write this off, but I give you one caution before you do…
There is a famous quote I’d like to share with you that has been attributed to many different people over time, so I’m not sure who said it first, but it goes like this:
There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments, and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance – that principle is contempt prior to investigation.
Powerful.
Read that again and let it sink in.
If you want to remain in ignorance, write off an idea before you even look into it. Surefire way to stay uninformed.
So let me begin with a question:
Why is no one allowed to go to Antarctica?
Oh sure you can go, but only to a few selection locations. And NO further. And only with a guide.
Why is that?
Why is it so important to protect whatever’s down there?
Why have all the countries of the world signed on to a treaty about Antarctica?
Yes, even Russia and Ukraine, who are currently engaged in WW:III have agreed on one thing: something VERY important is down in Antarctica and we have to protect it and prevent anyone from going and exploring.
Why is that?
What could possibly be so important about ice?
Unless of course if they have lied to us about the shape of the Earth?
Unless Antarctica is not at the bottom of the “globe” but actually makes up the ring surrounding it?
Sounds crazy at first until you begin to investigate, and it very quickly becomes something that has you scratching your head.
Let’s start with this video:
Biblical Trees Beyond the Ice Wall…. pic.twitter.com/fzsN79IN0T
— PaulsCorner21 (@TNTJohn1717) October 8, 2022
Think that’s just some crazy Tik Tok video?
It’s not.
You’re probably familiar with Answers In Genesis, right?
They do NOT espouse a “flat Earth” world view, but they did publish this article titled: “Stumped By Forests in Antarctica”.
Here is a portion:
Forests in Antarctica? This frigid, forbidding continent is full of surprising evidences for the worldwide flood.
Is Antarctica on your bucket list of vacation destinations? It’s on mine!
What could possibly be of interest in Antarctica? After all, the continent at the bottom of the world is covered in ice and snow, and the temperatures are always below freezing. As the coldest, driest continent, it has one of the harshest environments on the planet and harbors a world of extremes. Turbulent winds and snowstorms can last days and even weeks, and the endless barren terrain makes Antarctica the world’s largest desert!
For half the year it’s a polar summer, when the unforgiving sun shines 24/7. Then, during the six months of the polar winter, the continent plunges into complete darkness.
So why would I be interested in visiting Antarctica? Well, to see rocks, of course! I’m a geologist.
Unlike the Arctic, which is simply an ice sheet floating on the ocean, Antarctica is composed of rock covered in ice and snow. Huge jagged mountain ranges jut up through nearly a mile of ice and snow, exposing rocks with all sorts of treasures, if you know what to look for.
Just two summers ago, a team was surprised to discover not just one but five “forests” piled on top of each other. They claimed the supposedly 260-million-year-old fossils represent a series of different forests that grew slowly and were buried one on top of the other over millions of years. They were looking for clues to understand how climate changes contributed to their extinction.
Finding such mysteries then putting them in the biblical perspective is why I love my profession and want to visit places most people would never consider.
Found—Fossil “Forests” of a Strange Extinct Plant
The team was led by Erik Gulbranson, a professor of geosciences at the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee, who set up camp in the central Transantarctic Mountains. They found several layers of tree stumps buried upright with parts of their roots still connected. They also found impressions of long, broad, flat leaves jumbled together in massive mats.1
These remains have been identified as fossils of an unusual extinct plant called Glossopteris, which is unlike any plant alive today. Pieces of this plant are commonly found in large Permian coal beds that are mined throughout the southern hemisphere, such as in Australia and South Africa.
The discovery of these plants wasn’t the big surprise. In previous expeditions the same team found similar “fossil” forests in the same rock unit in the central Transantarctic Mountains. Lab studies confirmed that all the fossil wood specimens belonged to the same genus, Glossopteris.
But their earlier analysis uncovered a surprise. The long-held assumption was that the Glossopteris plant was strictly deciduous (meaning its leaves drop annually in the autumn). Scientists made this assumption because they usually find their fossil leaves in mats, similar to thick mats on the floors of modern deciduous forests. The new analysis showed they were a mix of deciduous and evergreen trees. How could this be?
Based on their evolutionary assumptions about slow changes over millions of years, scientists suggested a possible explanation. They claimed that earth’s cooling climate had forced these late Permian polar forests to adapt to environmental stresses. The accumulation of these stresses ultimately caused their extinction.
There’s a lot more out there than your government is telling you!
And of THAT I am 100% confident.
Here’s another one, from the Christian Times:
A Christian geologist has argued that the recent discovery of fossilized tree stumps in Antarctica confirms the Bible’s account of a global Flood.
Live Science reported last month that a team of scientists led by Erik Gulbranson, a paleoecologist at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, had discovered a forest of fossil trees in Antarctica, which is said to be an indication that the climate was warmer there in the past.
While the researchers have not dated the forest precisely yet, they surmised that it flourished about 280 million years ago before it was rapidly buried in volcanic ash, which preserved it down to the cellular level.
However, Dr. Tim Clarey, a research associate at the Institute for Creation Research (ICR), contended that the fossilized trees are more consistent with the Biblical account of a global flood just thousands of years ago.
“This discovery should be no surprise to those who take Genesis as literal history. The Bible clearly describes a global Flood that affected all land masses—why should Antarctica be an exception?” he wrote in an article published on ICR’s website.
Clarey explained that dinosaur and mosasaur (massive swimming reptiles) fossils are found on every continent including Antarctica, which he says suggests that a much warmer global climate existed before the Great Flood.
He further noted that some creationists have tried to explain the presence of temperate climate fossils in Antarctica by claiming that the Earth had “rolled” on its axis during the Flood, resulting in the North Pole shifting from central Asia to its present position.
But Clarey pointed out that the temperate and tropical-type flora and fauna fossils, like dinosaurs, can also be found in central China — which he said would have been the north pole if the earth indeed rolled on its axis.
He contended that the entire globe was warmer before the global Flood and that the forces that are required to explain the shift on the Earth’s axis has not been resolved and remains a speculation.
Gulbranson, who specializes in geochemistry techniques, noted that the plants found in Antarctica were so well-preserved that some of the amino acid building blocks that made up the trees’ proteins can still be extracted.
Clarey argued that the secular science community cannot provide a viable explanation for such discoveries.
“How could proteins and original amino acids survive for millions of years?” he asked. “These trees were buried rapidly during the global Flood described in Genesis. Temperate and tropical plants and animals were caught up and quickly buried in the ash, mud, and sand that engulfed them in this cataclysmic event. These fossils remind us that God’s Word is true,” he went on to say.

And now let’s go to my friend Dave Weiss.
I had a brand new guest on my show recently over at The Daily Truth Report…Dave Weiss who goes by the name “Flat Earth Dave”.
If you got a little triggered at what I just typed, go back up and read that quote again.
Because here’s the deal…
My mission here from Day 1 has always been to follow the truth anywhere we find it.
And that is never more true than when the truth we find is (1) in direct conflict with what the powers-that-be want you to think and (2) in complete alignment with the Bible.
And that’s what we have here.
Mind blown yet?
We’re only just getting started. and open I don’t love the term “Flat Earth” because it carries with it a lot of mockery and nonsense, but I do like the term “Biblical Model of the Earth”.
I also like doing my own research.
Dave and I chatted for over an hour and my goal was just to ask questions and open up the topic in a way that might lead many people to realize this isn’t crazy at all — and in fact, is much more legitimate than you may have ever imagined.
Some of the things we discussed are why can a compass only point north? Ever wondered that? If a compass is just a magnet, why do they only point north, why never a compass that points south?
Unless…it were not possible?
We break it down in the video.
We also talk about why perhaps the Georgia Guidestones HAD to be demolished right now…
Why?
Because they had a hole in the center that always lined up to the north star.
The only problem with that?
Science has been telling us the north star shifts each year by small degrees, but enough that over the 40 years that Guidestones were up that the hole should no longer have lined up — not even close.
Except….it still did.
Perfectly aligned.
Almost as if we lived on a still, flat Earth, with the sun, moon and stars set above us — exactly the way the Bible describes.
My favorite part was when we looked at the emergency landing of airplanes.
This is the one I think will probably open the most eyes.
Sixteen different examples of planes making emergency landings and guess what?
By their normal flight plans, they landed in places they should not have been anywhere close to.
Except…if you look at a Flat Earth model of the world, then they landed almost exactly where they were supposed to be, in a direct line flight path.
Sixteen of them!
I could go on and on, but I want to turn you loose to watch this one yourself.
Remember the principal from above before you watch:
There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments, and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance – that principle is contempt prior to investigation.

And now I’d like to dig in even more to what the BIBLE has to say about the place we live…
Through and through, the Bible describes a still, stationary, flat plane.
But don’t just take my word for it.
I want to give you some extra info from Rob Skiba who was an absolute genius when it came to this.
First, I want to address why this is even important in the first place.
Good question, right?
Why would yours truly even be spending any time on this?
From Rob Skiba’s TestingTheGlobe he answers that really well:
Before we begin, I must say it quite literally astounds me that Christians can’t see why this Flat Earth Controversy is important to nail down. Why does this matter? Well, just off the top of my head:
1) Genesis is the foundation of ALL that we believe in the Bible to be true. If Genesis is wrong, then it ALL crumbles under a faulty foundation. Genesis says NOTHING – zip, zero, nadda – about the Earth being set in motion (orbit or rotation) around the sun. In fact, the sun doesn’t even show up until AFTER the Earth is already in place with life ALREADY in existence. Genesis says the sun, moon and stars were placed INSIDE the SAME firmament within which that Earth was formed, not outside of it. Thus, we have a completely enclosed system, within which the sun, moon and stars move, NOT the Earth. You can Yoga-Jujitsu-Wrestle Mania twist and distort the text into pretzels all you want, but it won’t change what it says.
2) IF what we are seeing concerning the Flat Enclosed Earth thesis is true, then we are all there is. We are center stage. We are the main attraction and there can be NO argument as to whether or not there is a Creator. None. His existence could not possibly become more blatantly obvious than in this model.
3) IF the Flat Enclosed Earth thesis is true, evolution goes out the window and the theory of Ancient Alien seeders is obliterated. In this regard, I believe we become painfully aware of the Great Deception… and will NOT be fooled by it.
4) IF the Flat Enclosed Earth thesis is true, then we can NOT EVER trust NASA or the government about ANYTHING and we will finally be forced to fully trust YHWH’s Word as our sole source for truth and stop trying to bend and manipulate it to fit false paradigms.
5) If heliocentricity IS false, then Scripture IS true. If Scripture IS true, and can thus be taken literally, why should we not take it just as literal when it describes the earth as fixed, not moving, set on a foundation of pillars, carved as a “circle” with edge boarders inside something with four corners, enclosed under a dome?
The next question often tied to the first one is “Why would anyone lie about this?”
Again Skiba answers:
Along with those emotions comes an all too common question: Why?? What’s the motivation to lie to us about the shape and nature of our world? To me, the motivation is quite clear:
1) First get people to doubt YHWH’s Word by destroying the very foundation of our Bible: Genesis – specifically the Creation account.
2) Set up a new paradigm, where God is out and “science” is in. Evolution removes YHWH from the equation.
3) When evolution finally runs its course and becomes utterly bankrupt, introduce the idea of “Intelligent Design” but deny the True Designer His due credit and place it rather on “Ancient Aliens.”
4) Promote the Ancient Alien theme as much as possible in all forms of media by perpetuating the concept of Earth as a tiny “blue marble” orbiting an average sun in an average galaxy among trillions of other galaxies in an ever expanding Universe. With so much “potential for life to exist” in such a vast expanse, the idea of alien scientists being our creators seems a lot more plausible over time and heavy indoctrination.
5) The stage is set for our “alien creators” to return and bestow upon us their “miracles, signs and wonders” in order to convince us all the more that all religions are false. We then put our trust in them. Finally, when Christ does return, we are all convinced that He is the enemy and our united world gathers together to make war with Him.
Wow, sound familiar?
Sound like anything currently happening the world?
It does to me.
I said earlier that the Bible is a “flat earth book” through and through.
Now let me back that up.
Again from Skiba’s TestingTheGlobe, I give you all relevant scriptures:
Scriptures concerning the nature of the heavens/sky above and their relationship to the earth:

13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.1 Samuel 2:8 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are

Genesis 1:
14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:
15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. 16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.Deuteronomy 4:19 And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven, shouldest be driven to worship them, and serve them, which the Lord thy God hath divided unto all nations under the whole heaven.
Joshua 10:13 And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day.
Judges 5:20 They fought from heaven; the stars in their courses fought against Sisera.
Psalms 19:
1 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
3 There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.

Psalm 148:3 Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.
Ecclesiastes 1:5 The sun also ariseth, and the sun goeth down, and hasteth to his place where he arose.Isaiah 13:9 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.
10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.Isaiah 38:8 Behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So the sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone down.

8 All the bright lights of heaven will I make dark over thee, and set darkness upon thy land, saith the Lord God.Daniel 8:10 And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them.

1 Corinthians 15:41 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory.
Revelation 1:20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.
Revelation 6:13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.
Revelation 8:
10 And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters;
11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.
12 And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise.Revelation 9:1 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit.
Revelation 12:4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.
Again, applying no preconceived notions upon the text, how do you imagine a newcomer to the Scriptures would view the heavens, earth, sun, moon and stars just based on what you’ve read here? Would he see a spinning, heliocentric, globular Earth in an ever expanding universe? Or would he see something vastly different? I believe – without a doubt – he would see something completely different from what we’ve all been taught to believe. If this is not already abundantly clear to you, the remainder of this document will explain why.
If I were to be perfectly honest here, I’d have to say that I do not get a spherical globe, spinning around in an endless void of space from my reading of the above Scriptures. The Bible seems to be telling us, in no uncertain terms, that we live on a still (as in stationary), flat, enclosed earth. The following explains why I believe this way.
Oh, and as to “why would they lie about it?”
Here you go:
