No American University Can Afford to Neglect Koreshan Discoveries.
EVERY UNIVERSITY and college in America would do well to found and equip a chair of instruction in Koreshan Science for the benefit of its pupils. When it is remembered that the principles exemplified in the most recent scientific discoveries in France and England in regard to the destructibility of the atom have been taught in America for over thirty years,—the proof of which is furnished by printed matter,—the importance of such a step is seen. America should not be reluctant to claim the honor which is hers. She has given to the world the most original demonstration of facts in rebuttal of the Copernican hypothesis. The Geodetic Survey in Florida, all the details of which are printed in the CELLULAR Cosmogony, challenges the attention of the world because it disproves in toto many opinions long accepted but never proved, just as the indestructibility of the atom was quoted right and left, but had to be abandoned.
Koreshan Science has an explanation for every phenomenon known to physics. All its conclusions have been synthetized into a coherent body of scientific instruction. It is not in a position to furnish a laboratory equipped with all the latest apparatus, but it is prepared to take these implements and by their aid show the inconsequence of professional educators. No university, especially one where research is encouraged and every theory, even the most unusual, is given genial attention, can afford to neglect what Koreshan Science has to offer. Not long ago a young professor in an American university accidentally found the ultra-penetrable ray. He did not publish the phenomena disclosed in the course of his experiments, because he did not grasp the importance of his discovery. A little later the world rang with the news of the Roentgen ray. Then he knew what he had missed and what his university had missed, for he saw it was identical with his own discovery.

No university can afford to slam the doors in the face of an honest investigator, and no university can afford to miss the honor of being the first to promulgate ideas which are to influence the destiny of millions. Koreshan Science has something to offer which no other system of instruction can give. It furnishes a reasonable, logical, and convincing proof of the concavity of the earth’s shell. It does not rest this proof entirely upon the operation in Florida, but it brings other demonstrations of a different character to reénforce the testimony of the air line. The first university which has the courage to break through the lines of tradition to investigate these facts will be surprised at the avidity with which its pupils will take hold of these subjects and assimilate truth. The mind is so constituted that it enjoys the exercise of the logical faculties.
The very first point to be clearly and definitely settled is the question of the form and size of the physical universe. Cosmogony is the foundation of science. Lacking the data which are supplied by an accurate knowledge of universal form, no department of research can progress.
Take, for example, the science of Optics. One of its primary assumptions is that light moves at the rate of 186,000 miles a second. This number has been found, as stated in various text books, by observing the eclipses of one of Jupiter’s moons. The basis of the calculation is the supposition that the earth revolves around the sun. In the Cellular Cosmogony the earth is shown to be a hollow sphere, while the planets, the real planets, are inside the crust. So that in watching an eclipse of Jupiter, the spectator is simply looking along the ultra-penetrable ray into the very bowels of the earth.
