Scientists support my theories

Leslie Morrison and Richard Stephenson in October 1998 wrote in Astronomy & Geophysics Vol. 39 “The Sands of Time and the Earth’s Rotation” and Stephenson wrote in Astronomy & Geophysics Vol. 44 April 2003, “Historical eclipses and Earth’s rotation”. Their analysis of the length of the day from ancient eclipse records discovered that in addition to the tidal contribution there is a long-term component acting to decrease the length of the day, which equals:   △ T/day/cy = −6 x 10 −4 sec/day/cy. This component is consistent with recent measurements made by survey satellites, and may result from the decrease of the Earth’s oblateness following the last ice age. Although this explanation might be correct, and it is difficult to separate the various components of the Earth’s rotation, it is remarkable that this value of △ T/day/cy is equal to H * if H = 67km.sec −1 /Mpc. The discovery indicates that there is a connection between time variation on Earth and the univer

Islam is a Cult

The title of this blog may seem provocative but unfortunately based on accurate definitions it is the only conclusion we can reach. We should begin by examining the definition of a cult. cult [kult] ( plural cults ) noun 1. religion: a system of religious or spiritual beliefs, especially an informal and transient belief system regarded by others as misguided, unorthodox, extremist , or false, and directed by a charismatic, authoritarian leader 2. religious group: a group of people who share religious or spiritual beliefs, especially beliefs regarded by others as misguided, unorthodox, extremist , or false Microsoft® Encarta® 2006. © 1993-2005 Microsoft Corporation.

Parables and the fate of our Society

It is an interesting Bible concept that each story is in fact a parable; each story has its own message. Even from the start, it says that the world was created in six days, but how did they measure the days when the creation of the sun and moon did not happen until the fourth day? That is surprisingly similar to the scientific view that the Earth has only existed for one third of the life of the universe; but the intent of the story is not obvious. Adam and Eve is obviously a parable about disobeying the word of the Almighty and the story of Cain and Abel shows where covetousness leads. A later story which is ignored by many is the story of Jacob and Esau. The Almighty had promised Abraham and Isaac that their descendents would be a great multitude and would possess the land. Jacob was the younger, very industrious and desired this birthright, his older brother Esau was blasé about it and cared little. When Esau came in from hunting and feeling hungry he asked his younger brother
