Creationism, Myth and Catastrophism

Beyond the boundaries of established science an avalanche of exotic ideas compete for our attention. Experts tell us that these ideas should not be permitted to take up the time of working scientists, and for the most part they are surely correct. But what about the gems in the rubble pile? By what ground-rules might we bring extraordinary new possibilities to light? If you have a personal favorite theory, that is in someway related to the Electric Universe, this is where it can be posted.

The point I made in my lost post was "cathode relative to what"?

Moon is cathode relative to Earth. Earth is cathode relative to the sun. Sun is cathode relative to the galactic circuit. Milky Way is cathode relative to the intergalactic circuit, etc. Or it could be the other way around.

Obviously this point is still being debated by the key EU proponents, but I think we all need to be willing to entertain the possibility that celestial objects act as both cathode and anode relative to different systems of differing electrical potential.

Cathode Sun

Cathodes attract positive charge. Anodes attract negative charge. The Sun is net negative and so attracts positive charge and gives off negative charge. The interplanetary medium is net positive and the planets are net negative.

FUTURESCHOOL

I have Future School in the works at https://futureschool.boards.net

I have lesson assignments on Geology of the Earth at https://futureschool.boards.net/post/2/thread
At that link you can learn about Composition of the Earth, Formation of the Earth, and the possible Age of the Earth in great detail, based on Charles Chandler's findings. I think the Earth could be much younger than he reasons, but he seems to put a good upper limit on the age, i.e. under 400,000 years, if I recall rightly.

The 2nd lesson is on Rock Strata Formation, Gradualism vs Catastrophism, at https://futureschool.boards.net/post/31/thread
You might be surprised how simple it is to see that the strata could not have formed over millions of years.

The 3rd lesson is on Advanced Ancient Civilization at https://futureschool.boards.net/post/32/thread

RESOURCE
This is a great resource on Catastrophism and Myths: https://www.catastrophism.com/intro/sea ... oom_query=
You can enter any word or phrase and find quotes from numerous Catastrophist publications.

GREAT FLOOD
It's not clear yet from mythology etc how the Great Flood came about or especially how the planets behaved during the chaos of that time period. It's apparent from Saturn Theory findings that Venus, Mars and Earth initially were moons of Saturn and that the Saturn system broke up. Venus and or Mars may have come catastrophically close to Earth during the unstable period of time when the Saturn system planets left the Saturn system and found stable orbits in the Solar system. Venus or Mars or the Moon seems to have orbited the Earth for about half a year on a highly elliptical orbit, when the tides caused the Great Flood. During the months-long flood, many impacts occurred. The tides caused sediments from the continental shelf to deposit sedimentary rock on the supercontinent. The impact craters are found throughout the geological column. Nearly all of the impacts found throughout the solar system may have formed at that time.

The first part of this statement is somewhat disingenuous. Not a few of the myths explicitly name Saturn as the cause. Hence Cardona's book "Flare Star" in which he details these at length, not to mention Velikovsky's unpublished book on the same. It is clear the Great Flood began 7 days after Saturn went nova. It is a common feature of the myths: spectacular, mesmerising light for 7 days, originating from Saturn, then sudden destruction destroyed them all, except the 8 souls in the Ark.

The second part is right; the precise role of Mars and Venus (and the other planets, for that matter) does not become apparent until after the Deluge, which is why I am looking at the Deluge as the primary starting point for the vast majority of traditional cosmologies.

CARDONA'S HYPOTHESES

Hypotheses from Dwardu Cardona's book, Metamorphic Star
(Compare with Cardona Interview at https://www.thunderbolts.info/forum/php ... =10&t=3824 )
I think Cardona considers most of the following to have occurred about 10,000 BP.

Hypothesis #1: SATURN BROWN DWARF: That the present giant gas planet we know by the name of Saturn had previously been a sub-brown dwarf star free floating in space outside the demarcation of the present Solar System.

Hypothesis #2: EARTH SATURN'S SATELLITE: That Earth was at that time a satellite of this proto-Saturnian sub-star which, because of its proximity, loomed large in the sky as a distinct disk larger than the present apparent size of the full Moon.

Hypothesis #3: SATURN'S CHAOS DISK: That, during this period, a nebulous entity, which we have conjectured to have been a circumstellar disk, surrounded the proto-Satumian primary in its equatorial plane. This nebulous cloud seems to have been what our ancient forefathers inter alia alluded to as Chaos.

Hypothesis #4: SATURN'S OCEAN DISK: During this same period, the proto-Satumian orb was described as having floated over an apparition which looked like an auroral sheet of eddying celestial water, a cosmic whirlpool of an ocean, which we conjecture to have been the same circumstellar disk.

Hypothesis #5: SOLITARY SATURN: That this proto-Satumian assemblage was the first, and for a time, the only visible celestial entity that could be seen in Earth's primordial sky.

Hypothesis #6: IMMOBILE SATURN: That, as seen from Earth, the proto-Saturnian primary did not rise or set, but remained visibly immobile at all times.

Hypothesis #7: SATURN POLE-STAR: That proto-Satum's immobility was due to the fact that Earth was stationed directly "beneath" proto-Saturn's south pole and that, from Earth, proto-Satum would have appeared to be permanently fixed in the north celestial sphere, the very place which is now occupied by the far more distant Pole Star. What this also means is that Earth and proto-Satum were linearly aligned with both of them sharing the same axis of rotation.

Hypothesis #8: PLASMA JET: That what appeared to be a slow-twirling narrow beam of tapering light connected the proto-Satumian orb to Earth's north polar region. This ray from above was a sustained plasma discharge in the form of Birkeland current, a scaled-down version, or the slowly deteriorating remnant, of a so-called plasma "jet," many of which are presently observed streaming from galactic and stellar objects, and as in fact have been detected emanating from brown dwarf stars.

Hypothesis #9: DARK ORIGINS: That Earth was originally engulfed in what our ancestors persistently referred to as darkness. This was an age which, despite its remoteness, ended up etching itself indelibly in human consciousness. It was an era during which the Sun, the Moon, and the stars were not yet visible in the sky. Proto-Saturn ruled alone. That this darkness was not total was also told by ancient man who well remembered the feeble light that proto-Satum shed on Earth.

Hypothesis #10: SATURN'S PLASMASPHERE: That this system was embedded in a plasmasphere that was centered on proto-Satum, the near opacity of which enabled proto-Satum's radiation to be reflected to all terrestrial latitudes.

Hypothesis #11: NO STARS: That proto-Satum's illumination, relatively feeble as it was, together with the plasmasphere's near opacity, were the means by which the stars were kept from visibility. The Sun, on the other hand, was still too far to be seen, while the Moon had not yet been captured.

Hypothesis #12: WARM EARTH: That Earth would have received enough heat to sustain life, which heat would have radiated directly from proto-Satum's close proximity above Earth's northern hemisphere. The southern latitudes would also have received sufficient warmth, even if a feebler light, from the radiation that would have been reflected off the inner surface of proto-Satum's plasmasphere within which Earth would have been enveloped. In the northern hemisphere, this indirect radiation would have added to the direct heat and light received from above Earth's northern pole. Thus, during this time, Earth's climatic environment would have been one without seasonal change, luxuriating in one single season of eternal spring, even though there would have been slightly different latitudinal temperatures. Tropical and/or sub-tropical flora and fauna were thus able to thrive in Earth's northern region, even within the present Arctic Circle, and the possibility exists that this flora and fauna originated in these very regions before migrating to more southerly latitudes.

Hypothesis #13: AURORAL GLACIATION: That the much more energetic dust-laden formations of what have now turned into auroral ovals were responsible for casting ribbons of lands, south of the Arctic and north of Antarctica, into perpetually colder climates which, through the ages, resulted in the miles-deep glaciation that account for Earth's series of ice ages.

Hypothesis #14: NO TIME MEASURES: That, due to proto-Saturn's immobility, and the absence of the Sun, ancient man had nothing at his disposal by which he could calculate the passage of time.

Hypothesis #15: PLASMASPHERE CLASHES: That, as the proto-Saturnian system drew closer to the present Sun's domain of influence, their plasmaspheres came in contact with each other, electrical potentials clashed, and cosmic sparks began to fly. Thus commenced a protracted series of rebounds, deviations, and crossovers of the respective plasma sheaths, with proto-Satum emitting flashes of radiating light and heat at each and every contact, while also emitting clouds of dust, some of which beclouded the terrestrial atmosphere.

Hypothesis #16: GLACIATION SERIES: It was the sudden heat released by proto-Satum's outbursts in this series of plasmaspheric interactions that was directly responsible for the string of interglacials toward the end of the Pleistocene epoch. The reversal back to cold at the end of each interglacial was mainly due to proto-Satum's own return close to its previous temperature, while also aided to an extent by its temporary shielding by the accumulated dust in Earth's atmosphere.

Hypothesis #17: SATURN FLARE-UP: That, eventually, proto-Satum succeeded in penetrating the Sun's heliosphere and, finding itself electrically imbalanced within this new domain, suffered a much more drastic disruption than its previous bursts of power.

Hypothesis #18: PLASMA JET INSTABILITY: That the first signs of this electrical imbalance were manifested by the jet-like Birkeland column which joined proto-Satum to Earth, which jet was seen to undergo a series of visible instabilities the likes of which mankind had never seen and which he commenced to reproduce in his sacred art down through the ages.

Hypothesis #19: PLASMA JET RETRACTION: That, following this series of awe-inspiring volatilities, the jet was seen to retract itself and disappear within the very proto-Satumian orb that had originally spewed it forth.

Hypothesis #20: SATURN BRIGHTENING: That, due to the disproportionate electrical energy between proto-Satum and the Sun, the former flared up in a glorious burst of light that belittled its previous flares, while it dispelled the gloom, an event that went down in the mytho-history of mankind as Day One.

Hypothesis #21: SATURN DUST: That this major proto-Satumian blast shed a vast amount of dust, belittling what it had shed in its previous minor outbursts, some of which dust was eventually captured in Earth's atmosphere due to gravitational attraction.

Hypothesis #22: SATURN'S RINGS: That this super flare-up managed to scatter most of the detritus that had been contained within proto-Satum's circumstellar disk, and that what remained formed a much less dense accumulation with a wide gap between its inner edge and the proto-Saturnian orb.

Hypothesis #23: ATMOSPHERIC LOSS: That the flare-up was also responsible for the blowing away of Earth's auroral toroids together with a portion of the terrestrial atmosphere.

Hypothesis #24: CONFLAGRATION: That immediately upon and due to proto-Satum's major flare-up, Earth and its inhabitants were subjected to an appalling heat-wave which caused worldwide forest fires while engulfing all and sundry in a tremendous sheet of cosmic radiation, including X-rays and other potentially harmful beams and particles.

Hypothesis #25: MAGNETIC FIELD INSTABILITY: That the proto-Saturnian system's encounter with the Sun resulted in the reversal of Earth's magnetic field - or, more correctly, its dipole - which was due to the combined reaction of the Sun's super-flare-like discharge together with proto-Satum's own flare-up. This culminated in a boost of the terrestrial field which would then have commenced to decay once more in its attempt to adjust to the Sun's own field of influence.

Hypothesis #26: EARTH'S ROTATION CHANGES: That, very much like the Sun's flares achieve at present on a much smaller scale, proto-Satum's flare-up braked Earth's rotational speed, with its former rate resuming not long after.

Hypothesis #27: OCEANIC INCURSION: That this temporary braking resulted in the oceans' incursion over large areas of the land as well as additional heat due to the friction between Earth's crustal layers which also caused tremendous tectonic activity including global volcanism, earthquakes, landslides, and various other upheavals.

Hypothesis #28: METEORIC BOMBARDMENT: That, together with the emitted dust, proto-Satum also expelled quantities of substantial rock-hard rubble some of which bombarded Earth, exploding in its atmosphere, the shards and bursts from which scarred the terrestrial surface in various localities with north-oriented craters some of which were later filled with water, plants, or both.

Hypothesis #29: MASS EXTINCTIONS: That the calamities incurred by Earth throughout these events were responsible for great loss of life among both beasts and man. Vast hordes of animals which had existed during the Ice Age were completely exterminated, never again to grace the land or the oceans they once inhabited.

Hypothesis #30: SURVIVAL: That, despite the above, some species, including some of the mammoths, did manage to survive in isolated pockets just as tribal units of mankind also did.

Hypothesis #31: RADIATION MUTATIONS: That the cosmic radiation released by proto-Saturn's flare-up would have also resulted in the birth of mutated offspring both among surviving animals and humankind, but that, with some possible exceptions, including racial diversions among humans, these mutations were not passed on to following generations.

Hypothesis #32: RAPID GLACIAL MELTING: That, due to the ensuing heat-wave, the glaciers of the Pleistocene Ice Age commenced to melt, thus raising oceanic levels all over the world, while causing further floods and mud slides. Previous glaciated areas were thus reclaimed and, in time, the greening of these regions added tremendously to the habitability of Earth's northern hemisphere.

Hypothesis #33: YOUNGER DRYAS COLD: Mainly due to proto-Saturn's return close to its previous cooler temperature, but partly aided by the enshrouding dust that had collected in the terrestrial atmosphere, Earth was once again plunged into a colder environment, that of the Younger Dryas, which was not, however, as freezingly cold as the Ice Age out of which it had emerged.

Hypothesis #34: CREATION ATTEMPTS: That this series of events was remembered by those whom it touched and passed on to their descendants as a number of aborted attempts at what became known as the Creation, with each attempt having been thwarted due to a re-accumulation of terrestrial ice.

Hypothesis #35: EARTH REWARMING: That, with proto-Saturn's dust settling on the land, Earth returned to warmth as suddenly as it had temporarily slipped back into the cold.

Yeah, that's more like it Lloyd!

Now I do not personally agree with every aspect of all of these hypotheses (esp. elements of #20) or the supposed timing of them. Cardona's engagement with the Biblical accounts is exegetically poor and ofttimes exceeding selective.

I will have a more thorough analysis of the major differences between the Biblical and non-Biblical creation accounts in the coming months where I hope to highlight some of the key issues involved in Cardona's treatment of the ancient Hebrew creation accounts.

As I suggested earlier, I think the majority of Cardona's hypotheses have Deluvian/ post-Deluvian applications, pointing to a time when humanity was eyewitness of these things.

The same cannot be said of the Hebrew creation account which is explicit in its assertion that humanity did not exist on Day One (or two, or three, or four, or five), so immediately there is a contradiction with hypothesis #20. I have not read that chapter in detail so I do not know how, or if, Cardona attempts to resolve it.

COMMENTS ON CARDONA'S MODEL

CARDONA: FLARE-UP AT HELIOSPHERE, BREAKUP AT ASTEROID BELT?
I think Cardona figured that
1) the Saturn system arrived at the Sun's heliosphere about 10,000 years ago, at the time of the Younger Dryas,
2) it skipped around on the surface of the heliosphere for quite some time, causing the ice age on Earth,
3) and then it finally penetrated the heliosphere and had a major flare-up, which caused a global conflagration (forest fires) on Earth, along with other catastrophes.
I think he figured that
4) the Saturn system breakup and the Great Flood occurred about 5,000 years ago, so it took the Saturn system about 5,000 years to go from the heliosphere boundary to the place of the break-up. I don't know yet if he figured the breakup took place at the asteroid belt or where.

LLOYD: FLOOD BEFORE CONFLAGRATION AND ICE AGE
_ICE AGE: I don't think the ice age was caused by the Saturn system skipping on the heliospheric boundary, but by the continents moving north and south due to an impact that caused rapid continental drift. He may be right that the open oval auroras attracted dust that caused glaciation in the north temperate zone.
_SATURN SYSTEM: Earth seems to have been part of the Saturn system, which may have come from outside of the Solar system as he and others think, but the heliospheric boundary doesn't seem to be any kind of barrier that the system would bounce off of and skip on the surface of.
_GREAT FLOOD FIRST: Since the Great Flood deposited the mile-thick sedimentary rock strata on the continents and since glaciation occurred on top of the sedimentary strata, the Flood must have occurred before the Saturn flare-up during the Younger Dryas. The best evidence seems to show that the Flood occurred about 4,500 years ago, so the Younger Dryas event must have occurred somewhat later.
_FLARE-UP: I'm curious to see if it's likely that the Conflagration was caused by the Saturn flare-up and if that's when the Saturn system broke up a little more than 4,000 years ago.

Good to see you're challenging some of Cardona's conclusions!

I'm still not convinced by the impact continental migration hypothesis, but I also agree that it is unlikely that proto-Saturn "bounced" off the sun's heliospheric boundary for some millenia before finally entering it.

As I have remarked before, the more I read the more I become convinced that creation myths, excepting the Biblical one, are post-Deluge and relate to the reconnection of the axis mundi over the following centuries before the eventual breakup of the Saturnian system around the time of Abraham. Earth, along with Venus and Mars, were thrown into temporarily eccentric orbits which caused several ice ages of differing severity in addition to repetitive cataclysms as recounted through both Biblical and secular histories. All three planets had stabilised their orbits to the present ones by ~700 BCE.

Lloyd i wouldnt mind hearing your thoughts on some of the stuff Lyndon has been talking about in the Plasma Redshift thread. Creationists make a big show of the 'fact' that the universe is expanding, supposedly in confirmation of various proof texts of the same (will get citations tomorrow). The falsification of space expansion would be seen as a major blow, not only to LCDM but most of standard creationism.

UNIVERSE NOT EXPANDING

Okay, JP, the following proves that redshift is not due to an expanding universe. Redshift is due to the Compton Effect, not usually the Doppler Effect. The Compton Effect involves ionization and plasma. Even redshift on the Sun is due to the Compton Effect, primarily.

COMPARING CATASTROPHIST MODELS

I have a thread where I started comparing models at https://futureschool.boards.net/thread/ ... crollTo=30
These are the Catastrophists whose models I'm comparing and their main claims (but I may add more or drop some).
1. IV __ Immanuel Velikovsky: Earth moon of Saturn; Saturn nova; Venus came from Jupiter; Earth encounter with Venus and Mars
2. RD __ Robert Driscoll: Earth encounter with Venus?
3. JA __ Jack Ackerman: Jupiter collision; Venus came from Jupiter; Earth encounter with Venus and Mars; Mercury came from Mars
4. GG __ Gary Gilligan: Venus came from Jupiter; Earth encounter with Venus and Mars; Mercury came from Mars
5. GH __ Gunnar Heinsohn: History is about 1,000 years younger than officially claimed
6. JC __ Jno Cook: (JP, or anyone, do you know his main claims?)
7. DC __ Dwardu Cardona: Saturn novas rained debris on Earth; Venus & Mars became visible on face of Saturn; Saturn system breakup caused Great Flood and arrival of the Moon
8. OC __ Michael Oard Creationists: Noah's Flood greatly changed Earth's geology and biosphere
9. JB __ John Baumgardner: (similar to Oard)
10. WB __ Walter Brown: Noah's Flood and continental drift occurred when 10-mile deep underground chambers broke up
11. MF __ Mike Fischer: supercontinent formed from granite impact; impacts produced Great Flood; asteroid broke up supercontinent
12. LK __ Lloyd Kinder (Me): 1) The Sun & planets formed from one or more interstellar filament implosions (Charles Chandler), 2) and a granitic asteroid impact formed Earth's supercontinent (CC, MF); 3) Saturn was a brown dwarf star that flared near Earth's present orbit, outgassing hydrogen causing its then lost planets, Venus, Mars, Earth etc to circularize their new orbits rapidly (RD); 4) the new Moon's initially elliptical orbit raised Earth tidal waves causing Noah's Flood (JB); 5) an asteroid impact split the supercontinent, causing rapid continental drift near the end of the Flood, extreme volcanism caused the ice age (MF); 6) impacts on the ice sheet caused megafauna extinctions in the Americas etc (Richard Firestone, Antonio Zamora); 7) advanced civilization was set back by the catastrophes (Charles Ginenthal, Jonathan Gray)
13. M __ Moses (First name John or Peter?): Mars interacted with Venus and Earth at different times; Ocean basins and mountain ranges were formed by electrical forces supplied from ...(?)
14. JP __ JP Michael (First name John or Joshua?): Saturn, Jupiter, Venus, Mars & Moon etc. were involved in Earth cataclysms

QUESTIONS FOR EACH MODEL
These are the main questions I hope will be answered.
(A. What is the main claim of each theory? Partly answered above.)
B. How and when did the Earth form?
C. How and when did the largely granitic/sedimentary continents and the largely basaltic ocean basins form?
D. How and when did sedimentary rock strata form?
E. How and when did mountains form?
F. What Earth cataclysms occurred and when?
G. Which space objects caused which of the cataclysms and how?

Everyone is welcome to suggest other questions you'd like answered too.

It is Lyndon's argument (if you didn't read it already you can find it here, especially the papers cited in the OP) is that as light traverses the intergalactic medium it is absorbed and re-emitted by a crystalline Wigner lattice of electrons. The loss of energy for the photon by this passage across the IGM causes it to be redshifted with no blurring, contra the Compton effect.

Now it turns out that creationism has a mixed bag of views as to whether space is (present tense) expanding, but some creationist positions require an expansion on day 4 when God populated the raqia ("firmament") with stars, galaxies and planets, etc. John Harnett (CMI) argues for a singular expansion event on day 4, followed by a static universe thereafter.[1] Jim Melnick has questioned Harnett's deductions from the Biblical passages, arguing that Harnett's conclusion that the Bible explicitly forbids continuing space expansion need not have followed from exegesis of the relevant texts alone and that a more 'paused' approach should be taken.[2]

I think creationists typically reject continuing space expansion simply because it is a fundamental necessity of the atheistic Big Bang expanding universe: if existence began as an infintesimally small nothing that exploded outwards, it should still be expanding out into the eternal nothingness still today. A singular episode of expansion could cease if an Intelligent Mind ordered it to do so in the creation model, like unfolding a tent cover until it is in position and it remains that way, as many of the Biblical citations put it (eg. Ps 104:2; Isa 40:22).

I think John Kierein told me last year that the supposed blurring that is claimed would occur with the Compton Effect is false. He explained why, but I didn't understand well. I'd have to look it up or ask him again about that. I think he's more authoritative than most on these issues.

Compton effect seems to apply to a single photon interacting with a single electron in an atom at rest (0 K?). This condition is generally not met in space, where many electrons and atomic nuclei are ionised plasmas.

Lyndon's NTL through crystalline lattices seems like an interesting alternative. What needs further work is how interconnected galaxy-quasars, as highlighted by Halton Arp, can have such radically different redshifts even though they are theoretically the same distance away.
