OF THE
TIMES
Today as never before we need to comprehend the course, logic, and path of the process of history. Every day we need to make decisions that will affect future generations. It has become obvious that no single nation, confession, social class or even civilization can solve these problems on its own. We increasingly have to listen to one another: Europe and Asia, Christians and Muslims, White and Black peoples, citizens of modern democratic states and places where traditional society survives. The key is to understand one another correctly, avoid hasty conclusions, and acquire the true spirit of tolerance and respect toward those with different value systems, habits, and norms.

When we overstep our bounds, nature responds.
Abhishekam is a ceremonial washing, typically performed in puja rituals, i.e. pouring blessed water over a murti or lingam. In the Himalayan region, Monsoon is considered abhishekam. Seems it's getting pretty intense as we humans push Mother's limits. Will She once again wash the Earth of foolishness?
Even if we don't overstep our bounds, we have to be aware that our immediate solar neighborhood could end us in the blink of an eye.
We should be doing what our ancestors did, keeping a watchful eye into the night sky while figuring out how to survive what's happened many times in the past.
I love geology, it's taught me alot.
Your statement is interesting, in that someone suggests a hypothesis that has catastrophic implications and because of its negative suggestion it is not often well received yet the evidence to support the hypothesis is observable for all to see.
I'll give one an example, I went to the seaside the other day ( Whitby, East Coast, UK ), been many times. Why did I go, to look at the cliffs and rock at a certain stretch of coastline which the tide had previously denied me access to.
I arrived early morning, nice low tide, to my surprise there were quite a few people on the beach, most looking out to sea.
My very patient partner ( bless her ) knows me too well, I was off like a kid before she knew it ( she sat on a huge rock and let me do my stuff).
it's a Jurassic coastline, there beneath one's feet is millions of year's of history but the cliffs behind the beach SHOUT out loud volumes of history more, yet very few or anyone was interested, too busy looking out to sea.
The cliffs are made up of distinct layers, all telling their own story, all supporting the notion that each layer represents a massive difference in environmental conditions, forces and energy but no-ones interested, yup, looking the other way.
What the cliffs represents are liken to chapters in a book, a book that reads of massive cataclysmic events each chapter a new dawn only to be erased by an event that moulded Earth and began another chapter.
It seems strange that folk would reject something a honest individual would put forward when what was mentioned is in plain sight for all to see and in my case, looking at the wrong sea.
I've always been told that congomerate layers are rare, but I've seen a lot having spent a lot of time in Wisconsin with extended family before moving here as an adult, and conglomerates are also easy to find in the upper peninsula, which also has a lot of unique geological features.
I officiated a friend's wedding at Presque Isle in Marquette several years ago, and that features Archean rock unconformably overlain by Lake Superior sandstones. This means it's one of the most accessible places to see not only some of the oldest exposed rock on the planet, but you can see the unconformity without climbing.
Nearby is Pictured Rock National Lakeshore. [Link] You'll note that's a shit-tonne of rock laying the wrong way round. Highly recommend visiting Michigan's upper peninsula (late summer if you think you must take a dip in the always-cold Lake Superior). September is great if you don't mind a cold breeze on a hike, but you do prefer fewer people.
I remember when I became Interested in geology and came across the debate of its origins? The Grand Canyon I do believe does expose it, I'm not into the Snowball Earth theory or erosion theory's.
My mind goes back to Whitby and the cliffs, there's uniformity being demonstrated as at Robin Hoods Bay, but perch on top of the cliffs at Whitby is a humongous deep slab of sandstone, quite out of character with the rest of the cliff face.
It demonstrated a massive change that had occurred, one born out of an environmental and atmospheric origin, I have no evidence to support the following notion, but I'm of the opinion that Earth had its upper layers removed by an external event that massively changed the composition of Earth's atmosphere and left the planet in limbo for some time.
I'd be interested in your thoughts.
Maybe better evidence exists. I abhor gatekeepers. Whatever has been dug up from the ground belongs to humanity as a whole; not a government, not descendants of those people (who in many cases are just guessing because those people were here before them and gradualism is still the law of the land). I want to see what's been dug up. I want to formulate my own ideas about it. That the Smithsonian is a federal institution which is legally except from requests to view what they store is a crime against humanity, imho.
I need to get off my ass and get some land. I would love to build a wood henge at the very least to view and track the sky at night throughout the year, because I think it's a mistake, given all the evidence of the advanced ability of our forebears to understand astronomy and predict a great many things based on planetary alignments, and recognize cometary streams and when to look for them, is dismissed by calling those structures places of sky worship or dismissing the idea entirely because "they can't be smarter than us."
Whoever's ego is holding us back might get us all killed.
