Art of Planes and Theories

Maybe the reason your theory of choice isn't catching on isn't because of government interference or chemtrails or, you know, facts.

Maybe it's because your art is shit.

I'd be much more inclined to believe that the Bush Owns 7-11 or Reptoids Ate Your Grandma if you stopped using art like this:


And started using art like this.
Pl.7 (System According to the Ancient Scriptures) from a Muggletonian treatise
It's beautiful!

(Pro tip: make the competing system less beautiful or I'll believe that too.)

More seriously, if any of you are doing art of planes or planetary systems, steal from Issac Frost.


Further Reading:
The Muggletonians were a small and quietly tragic Christian apocalyptic cult. You've seen their modern spinoffs, but as far as I can tell, none of the modern ones had such beautiful diagrams. If you want to read much, much more, the paper "Isaac Frost's "Two Systems of Astronomy" (1846): Plebeian Resistance and Scriptural Astronomy" is very good.


Or steal from Orlando Ferguson.
