Since
I was about 16, when the new hormones surging through my body
caused me to question most of the norms in society and science,
I have had questions regarding the accepted Theory of Evolution,
as originally presented by Darwin et al. Recently I finished a
book by Immanuel Velikovsky which both summarized these doubts
and gave them a very good scientific backing. Now, I'll tell you
- I read this guy's first, and more controversial book entitled
'Worlds in Collision' and absolutely hated it. I thought his idea
that the ancient literature of humanity showed in the recent past
there was close encounter between the planet Venus and our Earth,
which caused widespread devastation, and The Flood, was just short
of insanity. However, in his second book 'Earth in Upheaval' he
did a tremendously good job at presenting just the facts available
in the archaeological and geological record and the logical questions
raised by them, with very few wild speculations. In this book
I discovered that the theory I'd been working on myself for the
past twenty years had a name: Catastrophic Evolution. I will attempt
to present the main points of the theory in this essay, and then
go on to speculate, from a position just short of insanity, as
to what is really going on.
Part 1:
The Archaeological Record
One of the first things that bothered me about the archaeological
record was the tracks left behind by long extinct animals. It
is speculated that these were made by animals trodding in the
wet mud, which then dried, capturing the print for aeons. Anyone
who's strolled along a horse trail on a sunny day has seen this
effect in the dried mud. But we've also seen the effect of the
very next rainfall, which completely washes away all traces. In
order for these tracks to be captured, it necessarily must not
have rained again on that spot (where the ground was wet remember)
for thousands of years. We can speculate that either there was
a catastrophic change in the weather, or the ground was covered
by a material such as ash or lava, which protected it, once again
indicative of a catastrophe. One way or another, it is likely
that the prints were made by animals fleeing for their life.
Most of our
knowledge of long extinct animals, such as the dinosaurs, come
from their numerous fossils. The question I have here is, once
again, how did they form? In the past four hundred years, nearly
a billion buffalo have lived and died on this continent alone.
Yet, there has been no record of anyone ever finding a buffalo
fossil. There are however, a stunning number of mastodon and mammoth
fossils available. Why? Once again, some sort of protective material,
such as ash or lava, must have covered the animals. Thus showing
that a major catastrophe had occurred to preserve the bones for
us to discover thousands and millions of years later. It is likely
these animals died in agony.
In certain
areas of Siberia, mammoths have been found in a perfectly preserved
condition, their meat still being edible; these animals still
had food stuck in their teeth. How is this possible? First of
all, mammoths were immense herbivores very similar to elephants,
requiring large quantities of tropical growth for consumption
everyday, year round. How was this vast quantity of plants grown
in a region that currently has a 6 month long night in the winter
season, and whose ground remains permanently frozen, even through
the summer months? Furthermore, in order to be preserved so well,
these large, tropical beasts must have been frozen instantly,
never to thaw again. What could cause such a drastic, immediate,
and permanent change in the weather?
Part 2:
The Geological Record
Throughout almost the entire world, there is evidence in the rocks
that, at one time, they were covered by glacial ice miles thick.
This evidence has even been found in equatorial places such as
Brazil. It has been postulated, through the Ice Age Theory, that
the earth has gone through some (relatively recent) ice ages,
where the earth was almost completely covered in ice. The problem
is, in modern day Siberia, currently the coldest place on Earth,
there is absolutely no evidence of glaciers having ever covered
the land. How is it that the glaciers were able to cover an equatorial
country, receiving the highest possible amount of direct sunlight
in a year, miles thick with ice, when at the same time Siberia,
receiving only 6 months of indirect sunlight a year, isn't? Furthermore,
where did all the ice come from? If the earth's temperature simply
dropped rapidly, as is postulated by the theory and borne out
by the mammoths in Siberia, the oceans would just freeze, leaving
the land frozen in whatever state it last was. In order for there
to be a tremendous amount of ice, the cold period had to have
been immediately preceded by an incredibly hot period, hot enough
to evaporate the water to form the glaciers later from snowfall.
And if the earth was covered by miles thick ice at the equator,
and frozen solid everywhere else, how did any life survive at
all?
One very reasonable
explanation for these oddities is that the continents once occupied
different positions than they do today. If South America had once
been located at the South Pole, it would certainly explain the
large ice mass that grew in Brazil. According to the modern theory
of continental drift and plate tectonics, this takes place as
the large solid slabs, which the continents are riding on, move
past each other. A little known fact with respect to this theory
is that it has been mathematically proven that there simply isn't
enough free energy available in the earth to move the continents
the required distance in the required time. It is more likely,
mathematically speaking, that the axis of the earth's rotation
shifted somehow. Therefore, since the last glaciers were know
to have covered North America until about 10,000 years ago, we
could speculate that the continent of North America was, at the
time, located at the South Pole. It's interesting to note that
if this was the case, then Antarctica would be located at roughly
the position of Toronto, Canada on the globe; that is, in a temperate
zone. Furthermore, it would be seen to rest between two huge peninsulas
(modern day Cape Horn in South America and the Cape of Good Hope
in Africa), which may have been known at the time as the 'Pillars
of Hercules', thus bearing out the continent's history, as recorded
by Plato.
Before leaving
the topic of the geological record, I have one more important
point I would like to mention. It is recorded in the rocks of
earth that many times in the past, the magnetic field of the earth
has flipped (so the north end of your compass would point south).
These flips have been shown to occur coincidentally with mass
extinctions and the onset of "ice ages".
Part 3:
Darwin
According to the currently accepted Theory of Evolution, as presented
in Charles Darwin's book 'The Origin of Species', the species
of earth today have arisen due to a slow process of natural selection,
colloquially known as The Survival of the Fittest. I must stress
here that this slow process is believed to have required million
of years. This belief is known as Uniformitarianism: the only
processes to have occurred in the past are necessarily occurring
today, at approximately the same rate. As far as the extinction
of species goes, Darwin was right on the money. We can clearly
see animals going extinct all around us as their environment becomes
inhospitable to their needs. To be sure, we ourselves, as homo
sapiens, have caused the majority of these malicious changes.
Why not? After all, we are the 'Fittest' species on the planet,
aren't we? But there is a BIG problem with this theory: in all
our years of scientific study we have never once seen a new species
originate from another. This would be understandable if we were
only watching one species in nature, as we would expect it to
take millions of years for it to change. But we've studied millions
and millions of species in the last few hundred years. If the
theory of natural selection is true as far as the origin of species,
the odds are stacked tremendously in favour of us having observed
this phenomenon many times. But nada. Furthermore, through the
selective breeding of dogs, we have been artificially inducing
the exact conditions (according to the theory) required for the
origin of a new species, for thousands of years. Yet, even though
we've managed to make dogs look as different as Chihuahuas and
Great Danes, and behave as different as Pitbulls and Golden Retrievers,
dogs are still all the same species. If allowed to breed freely,
in 10-20 generations they would revert back to a common looking
and tempered breed.
Even with
all our current knowledge of genetics and DNA and morphogenetic
fields, there is still no known mechanism for a new species to
arise in nature. In order for the evolution of a new species to
occur, new information must be added to the DNA database located
in the heart of every cell. By this, I mean the information required
to build a wing, or grow tusks, or whatever. Where did this new
information come from? Darwin speculated that it came into being
by chance mutation, with the unfit versions being eliminated by
natural selection. This idea does not fit the facts. Virtually
every system in the body has what is known as irreducible complexity.
That is, if you remove even just one small part of the system,
the system no longer functions at all. The mammalian eye has been
raised as an example of this phenomenon. Therefore, it is simply
impossible that these systems have arisen by chance mutations,
as there can be no operable intermediates. This is also true when
we consider certain animals as a whole. A bat with semi-developed
wings or a semi-developed sonar system would not be a fit system
and these mutations would have been eliminated by the same natural
selection which is trying to say they would arise.
Part 4:
The Bible
Anyone who's taken an in-depth look at Evolution will recognize
that the evidence I've given here is, in many ways, the same evidence
used by Creationists to 'prove' their own theory. Unfortunately
the facts simply do not support their alternative theory. Even
if you are willing to allow for large and egregious errors in
modern dating techniques, such as Carbon-14 for material from
past life, or Radiometric Dating, used for rocks, there is still
ample evidence to show that the earth has existed for billions
of years, not the roughly 6000 years they are trying to peddle.
Furthermore, there is also ample evidence that the earth has been
inundated with numerous catastrophes over the millennia. Given
the location of fossils and the turnings of the rocks, it is impossible
to account for all this destruction with just the one Flood, which
is what Creationists attempt to do. Unless, of course, during
the Creation God hid false evidence for us to find, just to throw
us off the true path, then proceeded to tell Moses the whole story,
letter for letter, a thousand years later.
It is not
very well known, but Creationists actually agree with some of
evolution theory. In fact, if Darwin hadn't have gone beyond the
evidence and postulated the origin of species by natural
selection, perhaps instead naming his book The Extinction of
Species, creationists would be in full agreement. However,
even if we accept a date for The Creation millions or billions
of years in the past, ALL species have had to exist since that
time. Given that the number of extinct species likely far outweighs
the number of currently living ones, how did we all manage to
fit on this little planet? Were all the species tinier in the
past? Dinosaur bones suggest not. And just what the hell were
we doing with our big ol' brains during that whole time?
Part 5:
Catastrophic Evolution
It is still possible to rectify all of this confusing evidence.
The Theory of Catastrophic Evolution is pretty much a juxtaposition
of the creationist and evolutionist arguments. The main points
of the theory would be as follows:
1. Many
times in the past, most recently about 10,000 years ago, the
earth has shifted it's axis of rotation, thus rotating various
continents, at various times, to the poles.
2. These
axial shifts seem to coincide with a flipping of the magnetic
field of the earth.
3. The axial
shifts are accompanied by tremendous catastrophes, which cause
mass extinctions, either by the immediate or secondary effects..
4. Soon
after the axial shift, there is a flourish of 'Evolution' with
truly novel species filling newly available niches the world
over.
And there's
one further point. This point was in fact mentioned in Velikovsky's
book, but summarized in two short paragraphs with no further elaboration
or comment. I can certainly understand why Dr. Velikovsky decided
to tread lightly on this fact, given that he was hoping the theory
would be accepted in academic circles, which it has been and still
is, in it's esoteric underground. That point is this:
5. These
evolutionary jumps are purpose driven.
For you see,
in order for these changes to be purpose driven, there is no question
of there being a designer, a supreme being. God, the One with
the 'purpose'.
In today's
society, there are more and more acceptable ways of viewing this.
In the modern science fiction view, it could be Smith or Neo tinkering
with the Matrix program. In the modern scientific view, it could
be caused by the exposure to cosmic rays from the sun during the
time when our magnetic field of protection is necessarily down.
In the modern spiritual view, it could be God intervening to reveal
more of the Total Reality of Heaven and Earth. In the modern enlightened
view, it is known that we are the 'One' creating these
cyclical changes, this path through Time, this universe, this
Reality. Regardless of the perspective you choose to view this
phenomenon from, there is no denying the fact that there is a
purpose-driven force at work.
Part 6:
The Scary Part
I had a stunning event of synchronicity recently occur. While
I was sitting down to read 'Earth in Upheaval' on the couch in
front of the tube, I was flipping through the channels to find
some background noise. I happened to come across a report on CNN.
It was a professor of geophysics from some university, I can't
remember which, who was reporting the recent acknowledgement in
most scientific circles that our Earth's magnetic field is in
the process of flipping. In the last 70 years the field has dropped
in strength by 15%. On the Creationist's time scale, this is incredibly
fast, let alone the accepted geological time scale. In fact, if
the dynamic mechanism that science currently believes causes the
magnetic field were to simply stop, the field would not be dropping
this fast.
Holy crap,
eh?
The professor
on the screen was saying that given the current decay rate, we
can expect this to take around 200 years, which should give us
plenty of time to study and prepare for the change. However, this
is assuming a first order rate law for the field's decay. Once
again, this does not fit the facts. As the prof himself stated,
it is falling faster than if the mechanism of generation was just
shut down. Therefore, either the mechanism has already reversed,
or there is an outside force acting on the field to reverse it.
Either way, it is more likely to be falling under a second order
rate of decay, that is, it is accelerating. Given the mystical
literature I've studied, there's pretty much no question in my
mind when they thought this was going to happen. That would
be the last year of the Mayan and many other ancient civilizations
calendars: 2012. Assuming the rate of decay is second order, there
is one benefit: the rate of change of the field will be at it's
maximum at the point when it's strength drops to zero. Therefore
it is likely that the amount of time the field is at it's weakest
will be minimal. What's going to happen during that short amount
time? That's up to us.
Part 7:
Destiny
Created in God's image. That's what the bible says. This has been
misinterpreted in many different ways for millennia. Most of these
misinterpretations have been deliberately planted for our own
protection. The truth of this passage is this: We are the
Creators of this universe. That may seem a privileged position,
but in the whole multiverse, we are just One of Many creator-species
who, when taken as a whole, comprise the mind, body, and soul
of God.
That doesn't
mean we aren't special. I've been shown that, thanks to the psychic
experiments of some of the more enlightened of us, the Illuminati,
as well as the help from a creator-species from another Reality,
when the evolutionary jump happens this time, we're going to accomplish
something previously unknown in the multiverse. What will this
be? Well, that's just it - it is completely unknown by any intelligence
in the multiverse. The 'time' after 2012 cannot be seen clearly
by any of the creator-species, no matter how far advanced of us
they are. The ancient prophecies, which were possible due to the
cyclical nature of the catastrophic destruction and 'evolution',
are no longer agreeing with current events. We are now a wildcard.
And every creator-species in the multiverse is sitting just out
of phase of our reality, watching. We are the greatest show ever.
So what the
hell are you supposed to do now? Near as I can tell, you
just have to understand this fact, and accept responsibility for
your part in the creation of this universe, for good or ill.
Just BE what
you truly are. Everything else will work itself out.
Simon Christopher.
P.S. On the
night I started writing this essay, I had a very strange dream.
In it I was shown a map of North America in the near future. I
cannot honestly say I remember how I was being shown this. At
any rate, the picture was of a group of large islands, each about
the size of Great Britain. In my dream I said: "My God, it
looks just like Atlantis!"
