Put Your Faith in Science, Disregard Religion, Believe in Yourself Depending
on your own beliefs and how open minded you’re prepared to be, you might read
this article and wonder about my own sanity.
Not
as often as I have…! I have
questioned and criticised every thought I’ve had on the topic, over and
over. This was especially important
to me, given that the internet provides a home to so many strange people,
some with great ideas, some that are completely barmy, and those that fall
in-between. But,
what cannot be ignored are facts. The
things we can see and touch and measure. So,
it’s probably not a great leap from whatever you currently believe, to the
ideas contained here. Most of them
have been around for a long time and a lot of them (I think) make sense. This
article is a collection of ideas and theories, brought together under one
hypothesis: They are all linked by
some common theme. With
the current global view of climate change, people are trying to be more
active in making changes to prevent large climatic shifts. What
if though, these shifts cannot be undone once they have begun? Consider
that we have spent; let’s say 60 years, putting the emissions up into the
atmosphere. If we stopped producing
anymore greenhouse gasses overnight tonight, then would it take another 60
years for those gases to come back down and be processed for the Earth to
balance out? It
might take longer. Scientists
cannot possibly take account of the changes that are starting to occur around
the world enough fast enough: The
changes have often occurred or been well on their way before scientists have
realised what is happening. Unfortunately
we don’t have enough of an understanding about geological and environmental
changes to make sure predictions. Take
this for example: They said it would
take 100 years for the temperature to rise significantly (a couple of
degrees) before we would see any ‘dangerous’ atmospheric changes such as the
melting of the ice caps. This
estimate is being constantly revised.
In fact, with the permafrost in Siberia now melting (for the first
time in 11,000 years), the gasses emitted into the atmosphere will soar to
incredible levels – it will make the gasses we’ve put up look trivial. So
we shouldn’t put all of our faith in science. What
we should expect to see is an exponential effect - a feedback effect that
amplifies the cycle and speeds it up in whichever direction and along which
trend it is currently following. For
the time being, in terms of temperature, its going “up”. There
are many theories about what might then happen. The favourite seems to be a sudden reversal. The Gulf Stream shutting off, so no more
hot water can travel to the Northern hemisphere from the equator. All of a sudden the Northern hemisphere
will cool. The equator could actually
still see a rise. This
has happened before, and it can and will happen again. What
if religion is based on the past occurrences or other ‘similar’ destructive
events? It’s plain to see that most
religions are based on the same events.
What if these events were real and the religious texts and monuments
built by ancient civilisations such as the Mayan and Egyptian serve as a
historical record? Now
consider the following. It is an
excerpt from an article title “Hopi Elders Say Earth Changes Are Upon Us) on
the crawford2000.co.uk website (snippets section), written by Simon Hunt. Although
it doesn’t cover all of the changes that are happening around the world,
these are very interesting. I
haven’t confirmed what is said here as solid fact through further research,
so don’t take them as true, but there are plenty of other “similar” facts on
the internet and these below are all more
than likely occurring. “Did you know that tornadoes have been spotted, for the first
time in history, that are spinning the wrong way? Why
would tribes stop having children?
Maybe it’s because of their low survival rate during any process of
change? Maybe because of the extra
resources they take? Why would these
things suddenly change? If
you search on the internet you can find unbelievable things that are
happening around the world – snow in Melbourne, Tornados in Birmingham. A
change is all around us. And it’s
now. The Cycle of Civilisation What
Goes Around, Comes Around If
we first accept the Earth goes through cyclic changes, then we can start
trying to understand what changes we might be likely to see. Humans
haven’t been around for long. Not
compared to the Dinosaurs or the age of the Earth at least. If
a change occurred 12,000 years ago that altered the world, destroyed any
civilisations that were around and set us back to ‘basics’ then how would we
mark this event and plan for the next? 12,000
years is a long time for us. For the
Earth, it’s in the blink of an eye. Our
collective conscious doesn’t date back very far. What we “know” is very little compared to what there is to
know. We
barely “know” what has happened in the last two thousand years – everything
is in constant debate, so how can we hope to think we know what happened
12,000 years ago? We might well be
living as civilised societies ‘in-between’ changes, when the Earth seems
relatively stable. And
because of this, we don’t know anything other than the time in which we
live. We find it hard to comprehend
the changes the Earth goes through constantly. We find it even harder to come to terms with these changes
occurring in our lifetimes. There
are a few ideas about the “event” that could result in the destruction of a
civilisation. One such process is
below. Given the evidence and the
unpredictability of the other possible “events” (listed later) this is the
event most likely happening right now. The Process of Climate Change Natural
and Man-made. Natural or
Man-made. It Makes No Difference: The list below
represents a suggested process for actual changes that can be seen and are
being scientifically measured and reported on right now. A lot of information can be obtained from
the ‘snippets’ section of the website crawford2000.co.uk. Although there is some information in the
‘larger’ articles in the website, these aren’t always factual or reliable. Some information and ideas are also from
various books and other websites. (In the future I might
reference where all the above came from, but it’ll take a while. Crawford’s probably the best place to look
if you’re interested. It seems to
compile a lot of good information from allsorts of places.) Religion In Truth The
Changes that Formed Our Beliefs For a long time I’ve
believed that a lot, if not all, of the topics I’ve been interested in appear
to have a common link. I’d like to
know and someday better understand the link that ties these topics
together. There are lots of questions
and few answers. Unanswered
Questions: Is There a Common Link? of “extinct” species These
topics are probably a little harder Viewing, Past Lives, Hypnosis etc) linked, but not as
strongly and with different Is
there a common link between all of these?
There are a wide range of topics here. Many people try and find a link between just a few of
them. Could each have some relevance
to each other. After all, if nothing
else, they all have 2 things in common:
The Earth and Humanity. Religion Unfortunately religion
has been used to control people for hundreds of years. To that end, the texts and references to
past events were altered to better suit the people that wanted control en
masse. After so much meddling,
it is beyond me why so many people still believe blindly in something so
unfounded. The texts are no longer
how they were meant to be. Their real
meaning, even more blurred. Of course, people need
something to believe in. It’s in our
nature, and it’s what keeps us going.
But why not believe in the greater good? Why not believe in your fellow men and women and children? Believe in yourself. For me, and many
others, religion has been the reason for innumerable wars. The number of deaths in the name of
‘religion’ must enter into the billions.
How can people support such hypocrisy? An Alternative
View on Religion Have you ever thought
that religion could be more of a historical record that has been warped over
time? A memory passed down through
human conscious that along the way has grown and split into multiple
religions? Muslim’s and Christians
fought and fight in the name of their religion and their god. I've always found this ridiculous – their
beliefs would appear to be one and the same.
Religion is almost completely blind.
“Almost”, because it carries with it stories that were probably based
on fact somewhere in distant history. To
base teachings on ‘morals’ would be better than pushing children into
religion, surely? So, teach them to
do right to each other? Learn to
forgive one another? (But at the same
time instil a sense of punishment to refrain from turning everyone into
do-gooders that try to save those that would do others harm.) If
everyone lived by one principal – that they could do anything they liked as
long as it did no one else any harm – would that not solve every problem ever
encountered? Its idealistic I know,
but a good foundation. Of course
“doing harm” can be expanded significantly to include physical harm as well
as mental harm and indirect harm (through an action that leads indirectly to
someone being hurt). Ancient Races,
Ancient Astronauts, Destroyed Civilisations If we consider that the
Watchers or ‘Elohim’ (mentioned in various guises in many religions) were
perhaps an ancient and almost forgotten race (possibly of giants) that died or
were wiped out, then the figure of god was more likely then a leader of his
race. Whether this ancient race was
terrestrial or extra-terrestrial doesn’t matter. Unless of course, you want to consider the ideas that Mars may
have once been inhabited and whether this was once the cradle of humanity –
Eden (one of many names) maybe.
Atlantis possibly? Extra-terrestrial or
not, the ideas that advanced ancient races that we are largely unaware of
once lived on Earth is still big. . Someone did suggest this
possibility and made a link between religion, the story of Atlantis and its
destruction, to referring to the destruction of Mars. There are ancient artefacts and images
that exist that show ‘astronaut-like’ features on human-looking models. Could we have not been visited by such
advanced races that came here from elsewhere? Mars maybe before it was destroyed? Maybe further away? Humanity’s Many
Destructions Humanity and other
‘older’ races might have been wiped out many times throughout the life of the
planet, losing all knowledge of their existence - although we 'feel' they may
once have existed. It sounds crazy to
suggest something can be felt, but anything is possible. Atlantis for example
sparks enormous interest and sparks the imagination. Surely ‘just’ a story couldn’t do
this? First, entertain the
idea that Atlantis (or a similarly technologically advanced civilisation) was
located on Antarctic continent. Then
consider that pole shift theorem is a possibility which moved the continent
to its current pole position. After
all, religions developed from such changes did they not? Or did they develop from other actual
events even further back in history? Even if such a
technologically advanced civilisation did exist elsewhere in the world and
not on the Antarctic continent – to the west of Africa, past the Gibraltar
Straits, then with all of the changes in the Earth, its quite feasible a
series of earthquakes and a large tsunami wiped out the island? Humanity might have
been destroyed a few times as the Mayan/Olmecs suggest (about various epochs
of humanity that last around 4/5000 years?).
We’re coming to the end of the fifth epoch on the winter solstice in
December, 2012. It’s said that this
date represents a certain alignment of the stars, marking the date, and also
a certain angle of the Earths poles alignment. At this point, its expected that the poles will shift. My Interest I've been interested in
the topics listed earlier and forgotten civilisations for some time. It seems that the devastating events that
wiped out these races, memories of which are carried hidden within religion
and other stories, may have really happened before and will one day happen
again. I have a passing
interest in the relationships between different religions. I’m not religious and am never likely to
be, but my interest isn’t in believing what’s written at face value. My belief is that religion carries with it
information passed down from one generation to the next, recording past
events. If you look, it does
appear that most religions stemmed from a common source. And when you read into it, it appears that
this common source was physical - not spiritual as religion would have us
believe - and that it was somehow wiped out. Historical Records There are many
historical records written into religion that seem to suggest the events
occurred in the recent past.
Unfortunately religious believers rely too heavily on their faith and
take it at face value. It’s a shame
they don’t look at the bigger picture and try to find the true root of their
beliefs, which would prove far more revealing. After all how many Jews
and Christians link their faith as originating from Zoroastrism and the Magi
priests of Persia? Wasn’t Christianity and
its religious texts tampered with significantly (with certain parts hidden
away too) to hide truths from its followers so the leaders could control them
with greater ease and overruling with fear?
Aren’t people following
false religions? Isn’t the book of Enoch
a truer source – a more ‘original’ version containing the facts, rather than
the fiction? Does this not explain
things in a different way to those which are circulating at the moment? Destructive
Mechanisms Which
is the most likely mechanism to occur or will it just be the luck of the
draw? It seems human
civilisation was nearly wiped out a few times in history. It appears that there are 4 likely
candidates for a major upheaval and revision of the way life exists on earth. There could be more than these mentioned
here. | ||||||
