The first data point we have for Gravitational Time Dilation is the one from GPS satellites. After that we have to be fairly creative.
The Sign of Jonah
The sign of Jonah is one of those things which looks like a Biblical inconsistency and the various ways that Christian scholars have tried to resolve it are hopelessly contrived. On the face of it, it looks like Jesus lied.
Hypothesis 15
Gravitational time dilation (GTD) was originally conceived of as a way to understand how the rate that time passes increases as we go further away from the Earth. But what if we go down into the Earth?
The Math of Gravity
The math of gravity requires that we assume gravity is concentrated in the center of the Earth. By a totally staggering coincidence, in Matty's Paradigm gravity is a field emitted from a singularity at the center of the Earth.
Time Dilation to Mars
If we're correct and gravity is a field emitted from the center of the Earth which causes gravitational time dilation (GTD), then we should have an accurate data point with the time dilation between the Earth and Mars.
Gravitational Time Dilation
The Bible predicts time dilation as observed. It is caused by the operation of gravity according to our axiomatic definition, which is congruent with practical mathematical applications.
Time Dilation Math
We can calculate a distance to the firmament with the question: If GPS clocks are faster by 38,640 ns per day at an orbital radius of 26,541 km, what's the orbital radius when the clocks are faster by 1,000 years?
October 11th
Time passes at a rate which is directly proportional to the distance between you and the center of the Earth.
