12.1.3 Weak Points and Counterarguments

Argument: The magnetic poles and center of gravity are in the middle of Earth’s crust, not its geometrical center.

Rebuttal: The center of gravity is in the core of Earth. The Earth has been proven to be generally spherical, and mass is pulled equally from every direction to the center of the Earth due to gravity. Historically, scientists tried to prove hollow Earth by arguing that campuses did not work while approaching poles because the poles were actually gaping holes that led to the entrance of Hollow Earth. However, gravity and magnetism are completely different phenomena and cannot be used to prove one another.

Argument: There are living beings inside of hollow Earth

Rebuttal: The Hollow Earth theory does not address the extreme temperatures and pressures observed and proved by scientists. Natural events, such as volcanoes, prove that there is extreme heat and pressure within the Earth that is completely inhabitable by any being. The temperatures and pressure also work to prove the solidity of the Earth.

Argument: There is a superior race living inside of hollow Earth

Rebuttal: Besides the fact that the inside of the Earth is solid and inhabitable, there is no superior race. Biologically speaking, all humans share 99.6% of their DNA with each other, with no room to be more advanced than one another. There has yet to be proof that any being is “more advanced” than homeo sapiens; additionally, they could not be living within our Earth.
