The Geoplanarian

The Earth is round shape. Oh, yes, indeed; it is quite similar to a perfect sphere. It is nothing but a seemingly tiny celestial body, quiet, suspended in space, rotating, moving fast in a large orbit around a bright, shining star. That lonely star - let's point it out clearly - is hardly a median sun, a body like many others across the vast universe we live in. But for all these things to happen, gravitation has become the key. According to Sir Isaac Newton, every point mass attracts every single other point mass by a force pointing along the line intersecting both points. Therefore, gravity is responsible for the formation of the cosmos itself. Without gravity, the universe would be out of energy and composed only of equally spaced particles. Down here, on Earth, it gives weight to objects and causes the tides. Gravity has an infinite range, and it cannot be absorbed, transformed, or shielded against. It is perennial and ubiquitous. It brings order to what would otherwise be chaos. All in all, it's a well-done job, my friends. Gravity rules it all. In modern times, Almighty Gravity has become God.

Standing against these scientific assertions proven right for so long does not seem a wholesome option nowadays; that would definitely sound lunatic, utterly obscurantist, and ridiculous in modern life. But for Professor Hermann Weiss, a Cumbrian senior teacher, an old geologist in his last year at Blessed Sacrament's, that seems not. Though he never ever foreknew that his bold and unexpected behavior might become so dangerous, did he? Where does that eerie earthly force even more powerful than gravity come really from? He never thought it would become suicidal, did he? Who is this murderous Maxwell's demon haunting the modern world for free? And what about yeh, mate? Time to make your decision. Which effing side are yeh on?
