If You Believe in The Heliocentric Model, Then You Believe That The Nile River Flows Uphill for 532 Miles???
With a total length of approximately 4,130 miles between the region of Lake Victoria and the Mediterranean Sea, the Nile River is among the longest rivers on Earth. The Nile River flows from South to North through northeastern Africa, originating near Lake Victoria and emptying into the Mediterranean Sea on the coast of Egypt. Since half of that path, (2,065 miles), would be uphill, the other half being downhill, and if we grant The Heliocentric delusion where there is no up or down with a ball whizzing through a space vacuum, then that comes to approximately 532 miles (approximately 2,779,811 feet) of uphill curvature, and subsequently, water flowing uphill that distance.
Have you ever seen a river flow uphill? Of course, not. Water seeks its own level and so, it stays where it is as level, or flows downhill with any drop in elevation to attempt to seek its own level again. Water does not flow uphill, and especially not for 532 miles.
But, if you believe The Heliocentric Model is true, this is the insane situation into which you are buying. However, if you know you live on a plane, with various topological variation, (e.g., hills, mountains, canyons, etc…), then the path of The Nile River makes more sense. It’s simply obeying the natural physics of water to seek its own level.
Detractors will try to insert magical imaginary Gravity into the equation by saying that Gravity is a real and significant ingredient in determining a river’s course. But actually, contrasting elevations are all that is required to explain river flow, (i.e., either above or below sea level). All water seeks sea level, unless impeded or obstructed by some solid and impermeable barrier. Notice it is called sea level, not sea curve.
Source Elevation:
The Nile River begins at Lake Victoria, which is situated at a significant elevation above sea level.
Flow Direction:
As the river flows north towards the Mediterranean Sea, it gradually descends in elevation.
Delta Formation:
Because the Nile is above sea level when it reaches the Mediterranean, it forms a delta at its mouth.
Merry Christmas to you!! I really appreciate your articles and look forward to reading them.
The only claim helocentrism has re: gravity, is that all thing are pulled “IN” towards the center of the presupposed sphere earth. Any description of a “DOWNWARD” vector must be made with respect to a horizontal plane of reference. (Down, being 90° perpendicular to a horizontal plane.) There are no horizontal panes on a sphere either geometrically or observationally (meaning we do not observe sphericity or curvature at ALL. Ever.)
All elevations noted in your chart, are MEASURED with respect to their distance above or below sea LEVEL.
Actually... to even try to logically describe water moving up and over a sphere is a paradox.
