OK, forget about Ellenin or whoever, and forget about the esoteric references.

If these God names are just the names given to celestial bodies such as planets, comets or whatever is out there. Could it be possible that these Gods and stories are just reminiscences of past Astronomic occurrences?

A few thousand years ago, the tools used to record these events (ink, parchment) were quite archaic and nothing used stood the test of time. Most histories were passed on through word of mouth and we've all played that game. Occasionally someone would write an interpretation down but buy that time, the stories were already twisted.

The question: Can there be truth in the concept that the continental shifts and consequently the disasters be the result, or at least influenced by the gravity of these celestial bodies? And if so, can these events be predicted (scientifically) by studying these cosmic events?

Fucking hell ,

1) how Manny people do u think made predictions with 4 days leeway that something might happen ?


2) There are so Manny other factors that are massively more significant than that of a comet is she saying the gravity of the commet will cuse the issues? what about the other platery bodies that are closer and have more mass why dont they have more effect ? I bet using basic logic if you were to go along with here reasning you could destroy the internal logic of how she has come to this conclusion.

3) its sad that people will just belive this sort of thing without investigating it , or belive in annything that totally contravenes scientific understanding and basic resoin derived from evan a basic knowlage of science.

I am all for ending all subsidy of energy, oil, coal or otherwise! I would LOVE to see technology finally take government out of energy production. I would love for every house in America to be its own power generator. Could you imagine stopping off at someones house to "fill'er up"! That would be so cool to me! We still might want to keep "the grid" around, but it would fulfill a totally different function. I am hopeful that a combination of solar power + hydrogen fuel cells will give us this ability. Solar seems like such a cash crop of energy, and fuel cells give you the mobility aspect. Time will tell if this comes to be, but it seems pretty promising now with solar cells reaching 50% effectiveness!

I know of studies that talk about feedback loops for weather, and while intellectually intriguing ( I love all things dealing with Apocalypse!), it seems to be without any real historical evidence. Most mass extinction due to weather change that we have any real evidence of are due to catastrophic events such as massive volcanic activity or comets and meteors. While I don't doubt that human CO2 levels could do something that equates to those, I question if we produce the amounts necessary at this point in time. I have tried with little success to find ice and CO2 levels of the Mesozoic era. However, I have read somethings to the contrary of the capacity of the ocean to stabilize the temperature better than ice. Liquid water has a very high specific heat, by increasing the volume of water, you could have an even more effective heat dissipation system than that of reflective ice. I lack any real education into which one is more true. Interestingly enough, CO2 levels were most likely 10% higher than today during the Cretaceous period. There might be slightly more elasticity in the climate than most people have come to understand.

I disagree that the government needs to "create a market for something". If it is one thing governments are very poor at doing is creating markets for things. People do this better and faster than government think tanks. I do however support new understandings in pollution in how it interacts with property rights. If you clog my air with filth, there has to be some legal ramification to that. It is due time to assess how property is defined in terms of air, water, and the like, I welcome that conversation.

Actually, we are more like comets and volcanos, our stuff is explosive! Virus smirus!

>> ^GuyFawkes:

I'd like to share a revelation that I’ve had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species, and I realised that humans are not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment; but you humans do not. Instead you multiply, and multiply, until every resource is consumed. The only way for you to survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern... a virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer on this planet, you are a plague...

^^^^^^^"This is not unique to America, the 21st century, or any nation, time period, or conflict. This exists, and has existed, in every invasion since the dawn of time. If you support invasion; any invasion for any reason at any time...this is what you are asking for: the sanctioned, unrestricted slaughter and rape of tens, hundreds, thousands, or millions of people."

Aaaaaand finally, someone sits back calmly, coolly, and spells the shit out for all you posers who shudder to think that the reason you have a computer and can watch porn and masturbate with your mouths is the work of some genie or magical spaghetti comet.

War is Hell, Invasions are allowed by all complicit, life goes on.

Oh and, you all have the power to stop killing yourselves with food.

That methane-life connection is bogus. It could be from comets, or even stored in clathrates from billions of years ago and slowly released.

I thought choggie was a radical free market person, I guess not.
I really see no big problem with there being fast food. It's the responsibility of parents to eat well and feed their children well. But I guess most people are just to lazy, poor or uneducated.


I am radical free-market cyberbeast-the world of the now resembles nothing akin to a free market economy, the definition most wankers understand it as is a theoretical concept at best, as every country on the planet has been groomed to march in lock-step to something completely removed from such a noble idea. Supply and demand can only work when masses of monkeys are not constantly indoctrinated by corporate fucks and bombarded with lies and deceit by a geopolitical machine which works to concentrate resources and labor to benefit the few-The so-called new world order or future of mankind or whatever the fuck you wanna call being herded into cattle cars involves a few people controlling the vast majority of well-groomed imbeciles, who have been taught from the cradle to follow orders-The only country who is not willing to necessarily follow the European Aristocratic/Corporate model is China, but they have a small group of criminals there who would that they be worshiped as gods as well-it's simply not occidental.

In an actual "free market", there is no bullshit-I give you a "dollar" or some service, entertainment, or product, you compensate me in-kind. I can deal in arms, cocoa, opium, cotton-candy, pussy, or whatever the fuck I care to taking whatever risk or leisure there is is involved, and I answer to no-one but natural law-more of a free-market anarchist if you will.

By all means, make as many laws as you care to regarding commerce or the exchange of goods and services: The wise man will prosper who is willing to risk all or nothing to accomplish his will within any system-only abrupt changes from outside of contrived systems will help the individual at this point in history...like maybe a comet or some worldwide upheaval.

We have evidence now that primary figures in the so-called 'scientific community' were pre-disposed to be deceptive and misleading. They abandoned credibility for money. It was proven that they artificially weighted results. It was proven they had not been able to explain fundamental contradictions to thier conclusions. It was proven that their models were statistical gibberish. When asked to supply the data they used to make their specious conclusions, they admitted they threw it away. They lobbied to have opposing points of view suppressed from journals so that the appearance of 'consensus' was not disturbed by the harsh reality that 'peer reviews' were stacked by biased sources favorable to them. Their financial records proved they received huge amounts of money from politically motivated sources.

I've seen the data. The emperor has no clothes. The 'science' is nothing but unsupportable guesses garnished with faulty data and motivated by political payola. And yet the Warmer koolaid drinkers are still trying to jump the Hale-Bopp comet to Heaven's Gate based on pure faith. But the 'scientists' were on the take, had no proof, and who refused to undergo actual peer challenges. When faced with real scrutiny they have all been forced to admit they can't prove human activity is linked to temperatures. Period.

It's all there, black and white, clear as crystal. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDW0ZnZxjn4

"Some say a comet will fall from the sky.
Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves.
Followed by faultlines that cannot sit still.
Followed by millions of dumbfounded dipshits . . ."

-- Tool, Aenema

I much prefer Troi's mother. She has a look about her that suggests she could suck a comet back out of a black hole.

To think comets and eclipses were harbingers of doom. Before people understood science. But... science could be all wrong. It could be the cloak of night playing tricks on us. Making us think we live in a vast expanse of a universe rather than a 'true' human-Earth-centered reality entirely designed and scripted by a big invisible guy living in the clouds with bird winged people-creatures in eternal battle with horned red dudes who like to hang out in volcanoes.

Some say the end is near.
Some say we'll see armageddon soon.
I certainly hope we will.
