“In a number of cases radiochronological age calculations give results that are clearly absurd and contradict the entirety of accumulated geological and palaeontological data. In such cases “absolute chronological figures” are to be ignored as blatantly erroneous. The discrepancies between geochronological definitions using different isotope methods may reach a factor of 10x.”
In this historically significant article, Lord Rayleigh examines the scientific debate regarding the age of the Earth. Writing in the early 20th century, Rayleigh challenges the previously accepted calculations of Lord Kelvin, which had estimated the Earth’s age at only 20-40 million years. Drawing on emerging knowledge of radioactivity, Rayleigh presents evidence suggesting the Earth is significantly older—potentially billions of years old. However, he candidly acknowledges several critical shortfalls and assumptions in his methodology which remarkably, over a century later, remain the basis for modern radiometric dating.
“The builders of the Pyramid were masters of Astronomical and Geographical science, and it contains the minute measurements of the earth and heaven, far exceeding the scientific knowledge of any man in our own time, and this knowledge and the secrets thereof were known to the High Priests, and they carried out their then knowledge wherever they went. The Ark of the Covenant, built in the wilderness by Moses, Noah’s Ark, and King Solomon’s Temple, all bear a true decimal proportion to the Pyramid, and the Ark or “Sarcophagus” in the King’s chamber within the Pyramid.”
“Besides the ever memorable deluges of Noah, Ogyges, and Deucalion, we have innumerable other accounts of the waters of the ocean making less remarkable encroachments on the shores at particular times and places, and returning to their former bounds. If it were necessary, a multitude of instances might be produced; though, were I only to hint at one twentieth part of those which might be enumerated, they would far exceed the proposed bounds of the present work.”
“Antarctica today is covered by an ice sheet up to five kilometres thick. It is the coldest place on Earth. It is amazingly the driest desert on Earth, with snow only falling around its wind-blasted boundaries. But Antarctica was not always so cold and remote. Geologist Molly Miller of Vanderbilt University discovered, in the Beardmore Glacier area of Antarctica, the remains of three ancient deciduous forests complete with fossils of fallen leaves scattered around the petrified tree stumps. “These were not scrubby little things,” Miller said. “These were big trees.” … And when did this occur? Classic geology would have you believe this ice sheet to have been in existence for millions of years. Two powerful facts totally contradict this.”
“[An excerpt from] Kenneth J. Hsü’s firsthand account of one of the most fascinating deep-sea drilling cruises ever launched. This voyage, Leg 13 of the Glomar Challenger, was undertaken in 1970 and led to a spectacular geological headline: the hypothesis that about five and a half million years ago the Mediterranean Sea was a desert.”
As the Earth spun, the Mediterranean Sea, that cradle of ancient tales, became a beast unchained. The Strait of Gibraltar, gateway to the Atlantic, slammed shut as the crust buckled, trapping the sea in a prison of land. The waters, driven by the planet’s sudden tilt, surged forth in a monstrous wave, 50 to 100 meters high, racing at 120 meters per second—faster than the swiftest eagle. Half the sea, 1.85 million cubic kilometers, broke free, pouring over the Sahara with a force that tore away the sands and stones of ages past.
The conventional narrative of Earth’s history — a gradual, uniform progression spanning 4.5 billion years — may be the greatest scientific misconception of our time. This is not merely an academic concern; it fundamentally alters our understanding of human history, the development of civilization, and our place in the cosmos. If the true timeline of Earth has been compressed by catastrophic events, then humanity’s journey may be far more tumultuous — and recent — than we have been led to believe.
“Modern science, with its sophisticated instruments and vast datasets, has begun to reveal patterns that our ancestors knew well. We have discovered that our solar system is not the clockwork model of perfect stability that we once imagined, but a dynamic system of interacting forces. The Sun’s activity follows cycles within cycles. The planets move in harmonic resonances that can build and diminish over time. And at the heart of our own world, the massive iron core holds secrets we are only beginning to understand.”
“What we have outlined in this paper are insupportable aspects of our contemporary medical system that need to be changed, beginning at its very foundations. When the number one killer in a society is the healthcare system, that system must take responsibility for its shortcomings. It’s a failed system in need of immediate attention.”
“This paper introduces The Pyramid as a potential countermeasure to the catastrophic event known as Exothermic Core-Mantle Decoupling and Dzhanibekov Oscillation (ECDO). The theory posits that the Earth’s core could undergo a significant decoupling event, leading to dramatic shifts in magnetic and rotational axes, which might result in global geological disruptions and major catastrophe. The proposed Pyramid solution leverages electromagnetic principles based on Energy Wave Theory (EWT) and modern geophysical understanding to mitigate or prevent the impacts of an ECDO event.” – P.S. Hernandez
“This Manifesto is not an attack but a counterblast. We, persons who have understood that we are born on a highly dynamic planet that tumbles and gyrates and spirals through a highly dynamic universe, have been calumniated, cold-shouldered, blacklisted, denied research funding, refused publication space, and chased out of jobs by sectarians who took power at the universities around 1860, sectarians as dogmatic and repressive as their christian predecessors, and who tried – and continue trying – to describe the world as static as they can. And to enforce consensus, they continue using ad-hominem arguments, their “common sense”, the anonymous peer-review censorship system, and the medieval Occam’s razor, long since rusted and blunt.” – Han Kloosterman
A collection of more than 250 flood stories from various cultures and locations around the world, as compiled by Mark Isaak between 1996 and 2002.
Mohenjo-daro was one of the great cities of the ancient world. Along with its sister city, Harappa, 350 miles to the northeast, it dominated the Indus Valley between 2600 and 1900 B.C. During this period, Mohenjo-daro and Harappa were probably the largest cities in the world. In translation, Mohenjo-daro means “Hill of the Dead.” Strangely for a city that once housed perhaps 40,000 souls in its heyday, only about three dozen skeletons have been found in the ruins. Even more strangely, most of the skeletons were discovered laying unburied in contorted poses.
“The earth itself was beginning to lose its shape. Already the stars were coming adrift from the sky and falling into the gaping void. They were like swallows, weary from too long a voyage, who drop and sink into the waves. The giant Surt set the entire earth on fire; the universe was no longer more than an immense furnace. Flames spurted from fissures in the rocks; everywhere there was the hissing of steam. All living things, all plant life, were blotted out. Only the naked soil remained, but like the sky itself the earth was no more than cracks and crevasses.”
Die Flutsagen (Legends of the Deluge) is a curated assemblage of mythology, geology and archaeology from a wide variety of sources. A work in progress which will be updated as additional material is translated, processed and included.
“Jutting out of the canyon wall, almost immediately overhead, was the forward portion of a large and very ancient vessel. A curved stem head swept up from its prow. Along both sides of the vessel were clearly discernible circular marks in the wood, quite possibly left by shields which at one time had been attached to the vessel. Mrs. Botts is not sure what kind of an ancient ship she and her husband, and an old prospector, saw in the desert canyon. It could have been
Phoenician, or it could have been Roman, but she feels that it was Viking.”
“When, therefore, the earth, covered with mud from the recent flood, became heated up by the hot and genial rays of the sun, she brought forth innumerable forms of life, in part of ancient shapes, and – in part creatures new and strange.” – Ovid, Metamorphoses
“The end of Bretton Woods allowed for an unprecedented ability to manage systemic shocks, including those potentially arising from geomagnetic and planetary cycles. While this connection remains speculative, the timing of the dollar’s decoupling and the NMDP’s acceleration suggests a deeper interrelation between human systems and Earth’s dynamic processes. Could this flexibility be a necessary adaptation for navigating a period of intensified geophysical upheaval?”
“When the fated day of deluge comes, after what fashion will the earth for the most part be over whelmed by the waves? Will it be by the strength of Ocean and the rise of the outer sea against us? Or will the rain descend uninterruptedly, and will summer be cut out of the year while persistent winter bursts its clouds and pours down endless masses of water? Or will earth herself open new reservoirs and shed forth rivers more abundantly? Or will a single cause be insufficient to produce such a catastrophe, and all the methods conspire together, the rains descending and the river floods rising, and the seas hurrying in hot haste from their place all agencies in concert bent upon the one aim, the destruction of the human race? The last is the truth.” – Seneca (65 AD)
“Could erosion have swept whole continents clean? And where did all these sediments go? Mainstream science believes that its armory of fossil succession, radiometric dating, and episodic erosion and sedimentation, caused by changing sea levels and the rising and subsiding of land are more than sufficent. It is a matter of opinion whether these accepted processes can cope with the sheer number and magnitudes of the gaps in the Stratigraphic Record.”
“Between 3 and 15 November each year, the Earth runs through a meteor stream coming from a small area in the constellation of Taurus the bull. The Beta Taurids come in between 24 June and 6 July with a sharp peak on 30 June each year. The orbits of these daytime Taurids match those of the southern Taurids closely. This unique complex of debris is undoubtedly the greatest collision hazard facing the Earth at the present time. It is likely that hundreds of thousands of bodies, each capable of yielding a multi-megaton explosion on Earth, are orbiting within the stream.”
“The biblical narrative and the archaeological finds at Jericho point to the same pattern of events. The archaeological evidence implies a plague, followed shortly by earthquake activity and the total destruction of the city by burning. The biblical narrative gives the same sequence a plague in the Jericho region, followed not long after by what may readily be interpreted as at least two instances of seismic activity (the first stopping the Jordan, the second destroying the city walls), followed by conquest of the city and its eventual destruction by fire.”
In 1923–29, thirty-three miles north of Vero, in Melbourne, Florida, another such association of human remains and extinct animals was found, “a remarkably rich assemblage of animal bones, many of which represent species which became extinct at or after the close of the Pleistocene [Ice Age] epoch.” The discoverer, J. W. Gidley, of the United States National Museum, established unequivocally that in Melbourne – as in Vero – the human bones were of the same stratum and in the same state of fossilization as the bones of the extinct animals. And again human artifacts were found with the bones… But these conclusions require that the Ice Age ended only twenty-five to thirty-nine centuries ago.
“‘Diamonds are as precious and unique today as they were when worn by princes and kings,’ according to De Beers’ promotion. To believe this requires a certain amount of mental agility, since there are now an estimated 500 million carats of gems in the hands of the public. This accumulated stock – the ‘overhang’ – is equivalent to about fifty times annual gem production. It must at all costs be prevented from becoming supply and interfering with the delicately crafted market. De Beers’ role as the arch-manipulator and sustainer of the diamond market makes secrecy essential. Above all, the group has to be able to hide the true size of its diamond stocks, particularly when times are hard.” – South Africa Inc. (1988)
Early thinkers, especially those of pre-Hellenic and early classical Greece, devised the concept of cyclical world history, which, because it postulated a succession of different ages, again involved the idea of great spans of time. These, though of vague durations, were usually stated in terms indicating an antiquity far greater than the 1,656 and 2,342 year dates obtained by biblical studies. This doctrine was followed by, and probably led to the development of, that of the cyclical Great Year, championed by Empedocles and the Pythagorean philosophers of ancient Greece. The doctrine itself was apparently based upon earlier Chaldean teachings which advocated that the Universe, though eternal, undergoes cyclical destruction from either fire or water at lengthy but irregular intervals.
“Although secret societies were very well organized and funded in early America, a formidable force arose to oppose them and quietly challenge their control of the developing nation. This force was the spiritual zeal of the Christian colonists.”
“If one man can be singled out as the person most responsible for the colonization of America, the honor would certainly fall to the head of both Masonry and Rosicrucianism of his era, Sir Francis Bacon. in the early 1600’s Bacon authored a novel entitled New Atlantis, which laid out the idea for a utopian society across the ocean from Europe where mankind could build a new civilization based upon the principles he believed to be those of the legendary lost continent of Atlantis.”
“Let me begin by observing first of all, that nine thousand was the sum of years which had elapsed since the war which was said to have taken place between those who dwelt outside the pillars of Heracles and all who dwelt within them; this war I am going to describe. Of the combatants on the one side, the city of Athens was reported to have been the leader and to have fought out the war; the combatants on the other side were commanded by the kings of Atlantis.” – Plato (360 BCE)
“Our planet rotates from west to east. Has it always done so? In this rotation from west to east, the sun is seen to rise in the east and set in the west. Was the east the primeval and only place of the sunrise? There is testimony from all parts of the world that the side which is now turned toward the evening once faced the morning. Curiously enough, the cause of such perturbation is revealed in beliefs like that of the people of Flanders in Belgium. where the peasants say, on seeing a comet: ‘The sky is going to fall; the earth is turning over!'” – Immanuel Velikovsky (1950)
