ZetaTalk: Past Cataclysms
Note: written on Feb 15, 1996.
The Earth bears witness to the cataclysms in her past and their periodic occurrence. Beyond her deep wound in the Pacific basin, and beyond the drift of her
continents, there are scars more palpable by man.
- Mountain cliffs, which rise sheer in many cases thousands of feet, represent tearing of solid rock. These stands before mankind, who even make a hobby of
scaling their heights, ignored in their deeper meaning. Have any experiments been done to determine how much force would be required to tear rock of this
depth? None have. The reason lies in the equally deep desire of mankind to avoid thinking about the Earth's past cataclysms.
- Beneath the sea in the Bahamas lies evidence of civilizations that went under the waves - highways and highway markers, clearly manmade. These areas
have been explored by many fortune hunters, recorded by camera, and published in full color repeatedly. Likewise ancient Incan cities stand so high in
altitude that the cities could not have been built, much less lived in. Yet the scientific community continues to claim that Earth changes happen gently, inch by
inch, at the pace experienced during the memory of their current civilization.
- Antarctica bears witness to her past as a steamy swamp, and likewise the North Seas, where oil is extracted. Likewise the temperate regions are scared by
what is termed the Ice Ages, where these regions were as snow and ice packed as the poles. A clue to these changes lies in the magnetism frozen in
hardened lava, which demonstrates that Magnetic North and South changed now and then. Has any adequate explanation been proffered by the scientific
community? None has, as all the explanations have the Earth's thin crust remaining in place, as the thought that they are standing on a raft that can move on
the sea of magma beneath them is too frightening to contemplate.
