2008 Disaster predictions taken one by one
Posted by: | CommentsThanks to a loyal DCS reader for pointing this website to me: Great Dreams. This website is a never ending list of dreams and prophecies. You can literally spend a year reading all information on the website. Unfortunately, it ain’t what most of us would call information. While I don’t think it has any pretension of being 100% accurate, there are really a lot of random stuff out there! I came across an interesting list of potential disasters/predictions for 2008 and let’s have a look:
- 2008 will be a year of shocking news and large explosions with a serious increase of earthquakes and volcano eruptions. (Feb and Aug 2008)
- Shocking news, large explosions, earthquakes, volcano eruptions. February’s now gone and I don’t recall such terrible events. Let’s get back to this one in August.
- Expect a full restructure of the internet.
- What’s a full restructure of the internet? I mean, I’m in the computer industry and a FULL RESTRUCTURE is impossible. There are certainly changes coming up, but guess what: It’s called technology. Technology constantly evolves and the Internet evolves faster than any other technology, it’s no news to anybody. Important changes will be needed in the coming years to ensure the Internet continue to evolve, but a complete restructure of it is just a random thought.
- Total restructure and merging of many television networks.
- Is total restructure a new buzz word I’m not aware of? I wouldn’t be surprised to see merging of a couple of television networks but that’s just business. We can say that with companies in general: 2008 will be a year were many companies will be merging together. That was also true in 2007 and will be true in 2009 as well.
- More action with UFO and new planets discovery
- Planets discovery is a sure bet, the universe is full of planets we are not aware of and we discover new planets every year. As for UFOs, we have to make sure they exist in the first place.
- Merging of many airlines and terrible explosions/accidents
- My comment on merging of many television networks also applies here, it’s called business and it’s a possibility.
- Terrible explosions and accidents? It happens every year, I agree 100%. It’s just not a prediction, it’s a sure bet.
- A full restructure of the US economy is ahead and the reinstitution of the draft will bring much more death with children in Iraq.
- Restructure again. US economy is not going very well right now, but a full restructure I’m not sure. It’s the same type of comment we saw with the “Full restructure of the internet”. Changes yes, modifications yes, but fill restructure is just too big. Communism maybe?
- Tremendous medical (heart) and technological discoveries are ahead of us.
- No news here, next prediction please.
- Upsurge in earthquakes in the ring of fire (Japan) Aug/Feb. 2008
- Let’s get back to this one in August.
- The US will experience an upsurge of earthquakes, large explosions and volcanoes activity (July/Aug/Feb 08)
- Same here, we’ll review in August.
- Serious scary news pertaining to nuclear plants and nuclear technology secret deals in the US / Russia
- We’ll see next year, saying no would be the same as predicting something.
- Nuclear accident at sea and/or in land - Feb/Aug 2008
- We’re clear for February. August will be a big month according to this list
- Tremendous planetary action/changes in our Universe
- I thought this was 2012. So now we have 2008 as well. Which year is the end of the world? Pole Shift?
- Death news for many famous people including President Bush, Larry King, and Clinton (Feb/Aug 08)
- Famous people die every year. As for Bush, Larry King and Clinton, it doesn’t mention it will happen to them directly. I’m 95% sure they will face a death news during the year, they know so many people.
- Negative news from France and Italy Aug 2008
- That is vague. There will also be negative news from the U.S., Canada, Germany, Russia, Iran, Iraq or any other country.
- Serious fires and explosions Feb/Aug 2008
- I’m pretty sure this was covered before, it’s the third mention of explosions. Yes, I can confirm, explosions will occur in 2008 and fires will occur as well.
- Many famous people to die of heart attack and suicide in 2008
- Many famous people die of heart attack and suicide every year.
- An upsurge of accident involving children
- That’s vague. Accidents? Death?
- US total financial restructure (Feb/Aug 08)
- isn’t that the same as “A full restructure of the US economy” that was covered before? I think it is.
- NASA full restructure.
- Stop that restructure thing.
After reading this list, I would like to make a briefing of 2008:
There will be a full restructure of the Internet, NASA, television networks, US economy and merging of airlines. Many people will die of heart attacks and suicide, and death news will come for many famous people. Serious fires, explosions, earthquakes and volcano eruptions will also occur. Medical and technology discoveries will be made. Nuclear accidents will occur and nuclear technology secret deals will go on in US/Russia. And finally, important changes in our universe will occur and more children will have accidents.
You’re the judge. While 95% of the predictions are extremely vague and can be related to anything, I have the firm intention of getting this list out in 2009 (If I haven’t exploded in a nuclear accident and I can still run my website because of the full restructure of the internet) and have a look at every point again.
Life Technology’s answer to my Tesla Shield review proposal
Posted by: | CommentsI wrote recently about Life Technology’s Tesla Shield and decided to write to Life Technology in the hope of getting a free trial of their product in exchange of a neutral review. By neutral review I mean I would have tried the product for a week with the simple conclusion of: “Yes it worked” or “No it didn’t work”. That’s the only way I thought possible to get a free trial because they wouldn’t hand me one if I was to kill their product. Also, I don’t really want to “kill it”, I just want to provide the world with a good review and just state if it works or not. Then, everyone can draw their own conclusion. I was just really curious to try it out.
That would’ve been one of the first review of this product as there doesn’t seem to have a lot online. Even if it’s not one of my objective, a review from Daily Common Sense would’ve given them a little bit of visibility and no matter what the conclusion of my review was, I thought it was a fair deal for everyone. So here’s their answer:
Dear Ben,
Thank you for your enquiry.Unfortunately we would be unable to offer you a free trial of our product.
However we do have an independent review which you may be interested in at http://shadowboxent.brinkster.net/TeslaShieldReview.html.
Thanks and best wishes
Life Technology™SPECIAL OFFER. ABSOLUTELY FREE INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING !
As a gesture of thanks and goodwill we would like to offer you absolutely free domestic and international shipping on your purchase of The Tesla Shield™. To take advantage of this special time sensitive offer visit www.lifetechnology.org/teslashieldoffer.htm
This special offer is transferable so please feel free to forward the special offer link to your friends or family.
Anyway, my conclusion is that they avoid getting reviews for their products by pricing the device at nearly 200$. Independent reviewers don’t want to pay that amount of money for that device. People buying it at 200$ on the opposite are totally convinced that the product works and will definitely see the product working event if it doesn’t without making any bad comments. I think they’re scared of people reviewing it because that could kill their business.
The link they provide as an independent review is definitely not a review! It’s nothing like this thing work or this thing doesn’t work. If they provide it as their official independent review, something tells me that it’s not that independent after all!
I just thought I would share it with you. Trust me, if I get my hand on one, I’ll review it for you.
Your body in action: Best action scene
Posted by: | CommentsHere’s a video of a Neutrophil (White blood cell) chasing a bacterium. This is really truly amazing and makes you realize how much the human body is complex and that are a lot of stuff going on in there! I never get bored, best action scene I’ve seen lately.
WR-104, a threat to Earth?
Posted by: | Comments
What is WR-104?
Mainly taken from wikipedia, with irrelevant parts taken out:
WR 104 is a Wolf-Rayet star located 8000 light years from Earth. It is a binary star with a class OB companion. The stars have an orbital period of 220 days and the interaction between their stellar winds produce a spiral “pinwheel” outflow pattern. WR 104’s rotational axis is aligned within 16° of Earth. This could have potential implications to the effects of WR 104’s eventual supernova, since these explosions often produce jets from their rotational poles. It is possible that WR 104 may even produce a gamma ray burst (GRB), though it is not possible to predict with certainty at this time.
What is a WR star?
Wolf-Rayet stars (often referred to as WR stars) are evolved, massive stars (over 20 solar masses), and are losing their mass rapidly by means of a very strong stellar wind, with speeds up to 2000 km/s. Wolf-Rayet stars are a normal stage in the evolution of very massive stars, in which strong, broad emission lines of helium and nitrogen (”WN” sequence) or helium, carbon, and oxygen (”WC” sequence) are visible.
What’s the matter with WR-104
The problem with WR-104 is that it is possible for a Wolf-Rayet star to progress to a “collapsar” stage in its death throes: This is when the core of the star collapses to form a black hole, pulling in the surrounding material. This is thought to be the precursor of a long gamma-ray burst(GBR for the rest of the article). That ain’t really a problem itself, the real deal is that the Earth is in the sight of that star and a GBR could possibly be aimed at Earth. Consequences of a GBR hitting Earth are mainly related to global impacts on the biosphere and climate-change triggered by the large dose of radiation.
So the GBR would be pointing at us?
A GBR is not like a laser beam with a clear target. It’s true that the Earth is in the line of “possible” danger, but we have to take in consideration how wide is the GRB. WR 104’s rotational axis is aligned within 16° of Earth and a typical GBR is about 2-20° wide. So, we are not in the comfort zone, but Earth is not a clear target. Remember that we deal with such big distances (8,000 light years), so even 0.1° can make a huge difference in terms of distance. In space, close to Earth can be considered as thousands of kilometers, so we have to keep that in mind.
When will it explode?
I’m not going to lie here just to please people: We don’t know when it is going to explode. Peter Tuthill, professor at the University of Sydney have studied the case since the star was discovered in 2000 and suggest that the star will explode within the next few hundred thousand years. Here’s what he officially says:
The WC spectrum Wolf-Rayet component of the binary should explode sometime within the next few hundred thousand years. To an astronomer, this is the last known stable phase in the life of these massive stars, and it could go anytime. I know of no way to predict this more accurately. The other component, the supergiant O/B star, likely has a much longer fuse than this, and for the rest of this discussion I focus mainly on the WR component.
The WC spectrum analysis is the analysis of the star’s helium, carbon, and oxygen emission. By analyzing this spectrum, you can determine at what stage or phase the star is in. As Tuthill says, it’s the last known stable phase in the life of these massive stars and it could go anytime.
What if it explode?
Well, if it explode tomorrow, we’re safe. The star is 8,000 light years away from Earth and one light year is the distance the light would travel in one year, which is extremely far. So, with gamma rays also traveling at the speed of light, we are looking at 8,000 years for a GRB to hit us. We are safe on that point.
What if it already exploded?
The problem is that when we look at the stars we look back in time. If the star is 8,000 light years away from us, it means what we see now is what the star was looking like 8,000 years ago. So, if the star can explode at any time with the data we have and it’s 8,000 years old data, the star could have already exploded right? Yes, I’m not going to lie to you about that. This means if the star exploded 7,999 years ago, we would know next year. We would know in the case that the burst hit us and it’s very unlikely.
What are your thoughts?
Honestly, I will sleep tonight and you should do the same without worrying too much. Like Phil Plait from badastronomy.com said:
So if it’s less than 10,000 years from exploding and if it blows up as a GRB and if it’s aimed at us and if there isn’t much junk between us and it, then yeah, we may have a problem. But that’s an awful lot of ifs.
There’s way too much ifs to conclude on a theory. It could explode tomorrow, in two hundred thousand years or have already exploded. The GRB might hit Earth as it might not at all and there’s lot of stuff in that 8,000 light years distance that could interfere. The theory is not strong enough to clearly say we are 100% safe and it’s ain’t defined enough to conclude on something. There’s way too much things to worry about in this life, don’t worry about that. Trust me WR-104 is one of the star we know of but there are possibly other stars that could pose a threat to Earth we are just not aware of. I’d say worry about your everyday life, not what’s happening 8,000 years away.
So, is it debunked and we’re safe?
It’s not debunked like the 2012 theory is. I feel confident enough to say you won’t see that GBR in your lifetime, but space is very complex and we have a lot of surprises ahead of us. It’s not worth to worry about WR-104, but it’s a nice thing to be aware of.
Earth’s Axis tilted an additional 26 degrees
Posted by: | CommentsAccording to this website, the earth axis tilted an additional 26 degrees recently. Quite strange we didn’t notice it because by looking at pictures, it looks to be quite an important change.
Before
After
Do you really think a 26 degrees axis shift can happen without anything more than increasing volcanoes and earthquakes like mentionned on the website? 26 degrees is huge and would mean MAJOR climate changes. There’s also the fact that we would notice a difference in the amount of light we receive from the sun everyday and a major difference in the Sun’s rising and setting positions. There are hundreds and hundreds of examples we can come up with just to prove this theory doesn’t make sense, it’s just another proof of the amount of disinformation available on the web.
UFOs, again
Posted by: | CommentsApparently, UFOs have been spotted over Lake Erie. This is about 2 months old news but I’m pretty sure there’s a lot of people who didn’t see the video. Before going into comments and reactions, let’s watch the video:
There are three kinds of reactions for that video. The first possibility can be: “Look at how the medias always turns UFOs stories into a laugh. They just want to hide this from us by making us believe it’s pure comedy and pure nonsense. The governement is hiding something from us and the population needs to know! UFOs Exists!”
The second possibility is: “UFOs are pure human invention and it’s a definitive scam as usual”.
The third possibility, which I prefer is: I won’t say UFOs don’t exists as there’s no way we can be sure of that. In fact, it’s hard to believe humans are the only form of intelligent life in this universe. Anyway, that’s not the point. What I’m sick of seeing is lights in the sky with a poor resolution and a confident UFO hunter saying on T.V.: “There’s no doubt these are UFOs. It’s time for people to know and that is the proof UFOs exists”. People have been chasing UFOs for years and years without being able to provide a real proof of their existence. Now we have High Definition camcorders being more affordable than ever. If you guys want to prove it, it’s now. The technology is there, stop providing cell phone videos.
If a pole shift happened on the Sun, it can happen on Earth too.
Posted by: | Comments
I received a comment yesterday on one of my article about pole shifting. This was a reaction to the fact that I said recorded previous poles shifts on Earth took about 5,000 years to complete. This comment was that a magnetic pole shift happened on the Sun recently, which is a bigger mass than Earth and it didn’t take 5,000 years to complete. Thus, a pole shift can happen on Earth and real fast.
I’d like to clarify that. The answer I’d like to make official would be: If I can peel a banana, then why can’t I peel a strawberry if they both are fruits?
Unfortunately, while kind of funny, it isn’t really a proper answer. The more I think about it, the more it makes sense and can be an official answer…But let’s elaborate a bit. First of all, the Earth and Sun aren’t like the banana and the strawberry because they both aren’t planets. That’s the first mistake of the affirmation: comparing the Sun and the Earth like being two similar things. The Sun is a star, while the Earth is a planet. This makes a huge difference because the minute you know that, you can’t compare both equally.
The other important thing to consider is that the Sun is known to be on a 11 years cycle. What does this mean? Every 11 years, there’s a magnetic pole reversal happening on the Sun. Longer cycles have been recorded of course, but it’s usually an 11 years cycle. Does the Earth have such cycle? Luckily, no.
I’m not saying a pole shift can’t happen in a single day on Earth. While there’s not much chance of seeing that happening, who knows? The problem is “If it happens on the Sun it can happen on Earth”. This is not true and it is the kind of argument too often used in different domains. The Sun and Earth are two completely different things. Don’t forget that stars are mostly made of gas, while this ain’t the case of planets.
I continue to think that “If I can peel a banana, then why can’t I peel a strawberry if they both are fruits?” is the best answer to that argument. Because even if the Sun would’ve been a planet, there’s no way you can go with that kind of argument, affirmation being true or false.
Tesla Purple Energy Shield Scam
Posted by: | Comments
Here’s today scam. It’s another great product aimed at healing yourself and regulating the energy around you. This amazing product is brought to you by Life Technology and is really one of the best scam I’ve seen lately.
What is it?
I would like you to have a look at these quotes from Life Technology website to understand what the Tesla Purple Energy Shield is all about:
Life Technology™ are priviledged to have been given exclusive access to some of Tesla’s papers and with the assistance of a US electronic engineering company, we have been able to update and upgrade the original design of The Tesla Personal Oscillator. The final product, The Tesla Purple Energy Shield™ combines the original Tesla principles of harmonic oscillation and design considerations with sophisticated state of the art electronic componentry.
100 years after Tesla’s original invention of The Tesla Personal Oscillator, Life Technology™ have created The Tesla Purple Energy Shield™, a device whos uniquely synergistic effects are profoundly more powerful and effective than the original Tesla device.
The Tesla Purple Energy Shield™ outer shell is made of aluminium, which is first anodised (electrolytic oxidation) and then colored. The spin of the atoms and electrons of the aluminium is thus changed in such a way, that The Tesla Purple Energy Shield™ is said to vibrate in resonance with the fundamental energy (Chi, Prana, Orgon) of the universe. The Tesla Purple Energy Shield™ coating was developed by Ralph Bergstresser after a patent and from the knowledge / information and ideas of Nikola Tesla, with whom he worked in the 1940s. With anodising, the field of the plating is changed and interacts with tachyons. The surface of the plating has a unique crystal-structure.
The chemical composition of the outer purple shell is the same as that of rubies and sapphires, which also consist of aluminium oxide. We know that rubies give energy and thus were called “life-stones” in the Middle-Ages.
Amazingly, the Tesla Purple Energy Shield can be used for:
Protection against EMF and electromagnetic radiation , Increases energy levels, Heals on all levels of mind body and soul ,Delays fatigue, Increases physical strength and stamina, Enhances quality of sleep, Retards aging, DNA repair, Completely clears negative energies, Acts as a 24/7 psychic shield, Energises food and water, Beneficial energy for animals and plants, Improves intuition, Assists connection to the divine source, Increases psychic abilities, Enhances meditation and prayer, Facilitates ascension, Increases synchronicity, Enhances manifesting skills, Facilitates astral projection and lucid dreaming, Use as a pendulum in chakra and aura balancing, Use as a transmitter pendulum in distant healing, Use as a tuning pendulum in radionics, Use as a pendulum for radiesthesia and dowsing.
The Scam
This does remind me of a certain Alex Chiu. Yes, that guy selling Immortality rings. When I look at the list of what the Purple Energy Shield can do, I’m amazed of seeing “Retards again, DNA repair, assists connection to the divine source, facilitate ascension, etc.” At least they won’t say that will make you immortal, but for the price you pay for this little gem it would actually be nice.
The Price
The Tesla Purple Energy Shield come in different versions:
1. THE TESLA PURPLE ENERGY SHIELD™ ORIGINAL VERSION @ $199.95.
2. THE TESLA PURPLE ENERGY SHIELD™ ULTRA ADVANCED VERSION 1.0 @ $249.95. Incorporates Upgraded Internal Componentry.

Alien bible found…and translated
Posted by: | CommentsI came across an interesting article located here: Alien Bible Translated. Once again, total nonsense at its best. Fortunately, it comes from a “fake” news website. I find it reassuring as it looks totally fake and that’s the purpose of the website. The real danger is that I realized people are actually believing this, without even checking where the news was coming from. Here’s a summary of the article:
WEEKLY World News sources have confirmed that a professor at Webster University — the birthplace of the world-famous English dictionary — is in possession of a book that was printed on another world. What’s more, the thick volume isn’t a cookbook.
“It’s an alien bible,” said 41- year-old linguistics professor, Dr. Emmanuel Johnson, whose skill with foreign languages has earned him the nickname “Magic.” “And wait till you hear who their god is!”
Back in his library, Dr. Johnson opened the container.
“Being whacked against the foreman’s head had loosened the top,” Dr. Johnson said. “It popped right off. I began to wonder if, in fact, that was how the aliens opened containers on their world. If so, they must have suffered brain damage over time.”
Inside, Dr. Johnson found a small, thick book. The cover illustration showed a constellation that bore the unmistakable likeness of Oprah Winfrey. Stunned, he opened the book, which consisted of multicolored, cloth-like materials. The writing glowed when the professor looked at it.
“It was an illuminated manuscript,” Dr. Johnson explained. “I was immediately able to translate the title, which is called Their Eyes Are Watching Me. The book was comprised of two sections: A Sacred Alien Testament: Written and a Sacred Alien Testament: Oral.”
“The Oral Testament actually speaks to the reader,” Dr. Johnson revealed. “Naturally, it talks in the authoritative but reassuring voice of Oprah.
“It begins with a section called ‘Syndication,’ which encourages aliens to do good deeds on other worlds, including the Earth,” Dr. Johnson continued. “We suspect that the alien visitors who owned this bible were missionaries, members of Oprah’s ‘The Angel Connection.’ It instructs acolytes on the basics of worship, including the use of something called ‘the remote.’
Please, we really have to stop that kind of things as it makes every UFO believer lose credibility. I know it’s fake news, but people are sadly actually believing this. I know it’s a small majority of people, but that’s too much.
I particularily enjoyed: “The cover illustration showed a constellation that bore the unmistakable likeness of Oprah Winfrey.”
Anyway, I thought it was a funny article, but unfortunately, some people believe it.
What’s the speed of dark?
Posted by: | CommentsOk, here’s a good one. While browsing on my favorite scam websites and forums I came across an interesting question:
WHAT IS THE SPEED OF DARK?
Really, it must travel.
That is really interesting. Just so that everybody knows, there is no such thing as “dark”. There’s light and dark is actually absence of light. So basically light travels, but dark can’t really travel as it’s no light. If you consider dark as not being something like a “black hole” then it simply travels at the same speed as light because it’s still light. It’s not because it’s dark that there’s no light…
Maybe some Daily Common Sense reader can provide a different point of view. Something like following new studies, there could be something as “dark” traveling…I’m waiting for these theories.
Anyway, just thought that was quite a weird question.
Stop breathing, Oxygen is bad for you.
Posted by: | CommentsDon’t worry too much, Oxygen is good for you. It’s just that I’ve read a post today on a forum and it goes like this:
PURE AIR THEY TELL YOU IS GOOD FOR
DON’TBREATH IT IN
THE FACT IS SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN THAT CARBON IS BETTER FOR YOU THAN OXYGENIn a new ground breaking discovery SCIENTIST FOR THE FREEDOM OF MAN have found that we have all been conned into breathing oxygen from birth, this didn’t used to be the case.
It is the master plan of the globalists through their modern science dillusions , they setup hospital care when the babies are born they take them and flood them with oxygen through a mask and rinse out THE NATURAL BREATHING OF NATURAL MAN AND REPLACE ALL THE CARBON MONOXIDE WITH A POISON WE KNOW AS OXYGEN
I KNOW THIS SOUNDS FAR FETCHED BUT ITS LIKE GETTING SOMEONE HOOKED ON SMOKING- EVEN THOUGH THAT IS FAR SAFER.
THEY HAVE SETUP MASSIVE TANKS IN OUTER SPACE AND HAVE BEEN FLOODING OUR ATMOSPHERE WITH THIS POISONOUS SUBSTANCE - OXYGEN SINCE 1827.
Do I really need to comment on that? Does that dude know carbon monoxide will kill you if you breath too much?
This is really one of the funniest story I’ve heard recently. Why would someone get you addicted to Oxygen instead of carbon monoxide? It’s not like we pay for Oxygen…
We live in a virtual world…Not!
Posted by: | CommentsI came across an interesting and somewhat crappy web 0.5 (Yeah, a bit over web 0.1, but still…): The Universe - Solved. It states that we live in a virtual reality and guess what? There’s a book about it! God I wasn’t surprised to see a book on the second page of the website. If that guy was so dedicated to his theory and not for the 24.95$ per book, he would at least explain a little bit of its theory on his website. But nothing. Only really vague statements with reality/virtual word comparison images and the table of contents of the book. I actually found the best description on Amazon:
What if reality isn’t really what you think it is?
What if our world was just a big video game?It’s actually not as far-fetched as it seems, says Jim Elvidge. Within 30 years, we will be able to create virtual environments indistinguishable from our reality. Within a few more decades, even physical realities will be manufactured. And we are marching toward an inevitable merge with machines. What’s more, it is actually impossible to tell whether or not we have already reached that point.
An expert in complex computational systems, with over 20 years of research in cosmology, quantum mechanics, philosophy, anomalies, and futurism, Jim Elvidge presents a theory of reality so perfect, so powerful, that it explains all known scientific and cultural anomalies. Why is the universe so perfectly designed to support life and matter? Why does life feel like it is accelerating? Why do people see UFOs? Is there life after death?
The evidence is actually all around us, within us, and present in every decision we make. This book may completely change the way you look at your world, your life, your friends and family, and the PC on your desk.
Why is there always a book at the end of a conspiracy theory website? If everybody thinks these are mostly B.S., who buys them? I’ll always be amazed. Anyway, isn’t it cheap 24.95$ for the answer to the Universe?
Even though I think it’s mostly crap I think his theory would be interested to read about as you can’t write something like 300 pages with no content; You at least have to have a couple of good arguments. I would never pay for the book but I’d certainly be open enough to read it if given to me.
I particularly enjoyed: “The book everybody is talking about”…No!
Anyway, just thought I’d share this finding with you: Visit the website and you’re the judge.
Someone Tinkering With The Sun
Posted by: | CommentsI was browsing the Web today and I came across an interesting post. Interesting not because it is an important matter, but mostly because it doesn’t make much sense. I think sometimes people are pushing back their cause more than they’re pushing it forward. That’s exactly what this article is about. The article can be located here: Possible Smoke Gun - Someone Tinkering With The Sun. I will first start with the first paragraph of the article:
I believe we have finally found the smoking gun that someone is tinkering with our sun and/or perhaps time with Earth. Needless to say, the implications of this cannot be good for the Earth in the long term.
And the conclusion of the article:
If this X-ray data provided by NASA is real and isn’t a game, then this is the smoking gun many of us have been looking for. It shows intelligent manipulation of either time or the Sun. And it should be of great concern for all of us, considering we’ve had tornadoes in WINTER this year.
Ok, so what is this all about? I won’t get too much into details with the article as it’s really not the point of my article. To make a quick briefing of the article, the author is saying that for the past three days, solar X-Ray level shifts have occurred around the same time and this is really not usual. He shows images from the NASA to prove his point and say it’s really strange that for three consecutive days, X-ray shifts have occurred within the same time interval.
False, true, true false? I don’t care. My point for this article is really “someone is tinkering with our sun”. I can’t believe the most clever conclusion for that consecutive x-ray level shift is that someone is tinkering with our sun or worst, with time. Someone is tinkering with our sun? Come on, please! Being the government or whatever, how can someone thinker with the sun? It’s by far the biggest energy source near Earth and I would really appreciate if someone could explain me how you can influence the behavior of the Sun or even time. It would take a lot of energy to just even think about it.
Why am I not commenting on its finding? Because it’s not worth it. I mean, the NASA is releasing honest data about X-Ray activity of the Sun and then someone claims that someone is tinkering with the sun and time. It’s just ridiculous and the worst part is that this person is calling it truth. I mean, it can probably be explained by a dozen of good reasons, maybe just by the increasing solar activity due to peak by 2012. Any scientific explanation would have been valuable, except that someone is tinkering with the sun. Please.
The conspiracy theories have to stop somewhere. UFOs is one thing, manipulating the sun and time is another thing.
2012 And Jumping To Conslusions
Posted by: | CommentsMy articles about 2012, planet X and pole shift are extremely populars and people really like them. I mostly received really good comments and I’m really happy about it. Sometimes, when I receive a “more negative” comment, it’s about my ability to apparently jump to conclusion too fast. I’m quite surprised because in all my articles I usually mention that no one holds the truth and we can’t be sure of anything. I provide opinions backed by scientific data and it’s usually a far more solid proof than any other doomsday theory articles you will find on the Internet.
I don’t consider having the truth or jumping to any conclusions. In fact, I find it quite funny that we usually accuse science to jump to conclusions too fast when we let doomsday prophets jump to conclusions without even asking a damn question. For the same reason I can’t jump to conclusions, 2012 prophets should not and trust me, they jump faster than me. There’s no negotiation with them while I think I can understand both sides. I respect people believing in that kind of stuff because I welcome different opinions: different opinions are good. What I’m trying to prove with my articles is that following scientific facts (We all agree that science is driving our world and is the most concrete thing we have to explain what’s around us), this 2012 stuff is losing a lot of credibility. Is rationality the only way of seeing life? Definitely not and thank God. But in times of fear, being rational really helps.
Why did I write these articles? People are scared to death. Trust me, I’ve received comments from people that couldn’t sleep or even go to work because of the 2012 propaganda. I respect people having different opinions and believing in the end of the world in 2012, but creating a climate of fear is not acceptable. You know how we kill a climate of fear? Information. I didn’t just write that to make people feel good, I wrote it because I do strongly believe nothing will happen in 2012 and because most scientific facts are pointing the same direction I am. I’m trying to put a bit of rationality in all that fear propaganda. Everyone is free to do what they want with the information I provide.
There’s one important thing we all have to understand: People are making a shit load of money with 2012. Books, TV shows, etc. It has always been like that and it will always be like that. Now you may say: well you’ve got Ads on your website and you make money with that. Totally true, but my blog is not only about 2012, it’s an information blog. But anyway, what’s best: Making a shit load of money by creating a climate of fear and making people scared to death and miss days of work because of that OR making not so much money and provide real scientific evidence that we have no proof the end of the world is going to end in 2012? I write this blog because I love it and I like to inform people about real life matters. I think it’s fair.
I feel really good with my articles because I’ve received tons of emails from people thanking me about it. I’ve changed a couple of persons’ life in a good way and that makes me feel good. When I go to bed at night, it’s nice to know I’ve had a positive impact on people’s life. I couldn’t sleep telling people the world will end in 2012: I just can’t deal with that. Especially when there’s not a single proof.
I would like to say that I think we will put an end to our own world before any doomsday prophecy comes true. But, you know, I’m not God and anything can happen. Only time will tell…
