Before we can blame our society for all our troubles, we must examine its origins. Let’s go back to the beginning. How did we get in this predicament?
How was the world created?
We have several answers to choose from. We have the Big Bang. Instant creation! No time involved. We also have a creation that took 6 or 7 days. There is also an evolution that takes millions of years without any completion date. The fact that diverse explanations are available means that we still do not have a definite answer. You are free to make your own. The sky is the limit!
We tried reverse engineering. Our first attempt was not very romantic:
3 - The world creation
Let’s keep dreaming!
The concept of exposure to sunlight from our sun aligns well with the Big Bang theory. The two opposites balance each other. The Big Bang consumes a tremendous amount of energy, yet it occurs in no time and no space. Exposure to the sun for millions of years utilizes only tiny doses of energy but requires a considerable amount of time and space. Those two seem to be made for each other. We are part of that evolution. We are part of the creation of the world. You take part in the creation of the universe every day of your life. Congratulations! Keep going!
The problem with reverse engineering is that it is based solely on “time.” You cannot imagine that the stars were created in space without motion, and time was added later to make them appear to move. Reverse engineering cannot be applied to objects that are more than a few million years old. This is not much for a planet that is 13 billion years old. Something is missing.
According to the astronomers, our material world represents only 5% of reality. Our material world could be nothing more than the residues of the creation of dark matter and dark energy.
Our discovery of the universe is only beginning.
That could explain our feeling of insecurity on planet Earth, like a tourist who just arrived at the airport and does not speak the language.
- Let’s get back to earth. Humans and animals are feeding on plants. Our body needs at least 60 minerals (such as Calcium, iron, magnesium…). This is not something the body can manufacture. Minerals must come from the soil. The plants use microorganisms in the soil to pre-digest the minerals. It was logical to conclude that plants must have evolved before animals and humans. So far – so good.
- Where do the plants come from? They grow in a thin layer of arable earth spread around the planet. Without it there would be no plants, no animals and no humans. Our thin layer of arable land must have been created before the plants. That’s logical, isn’t it?
This is where the problem starts. Where does the arable earth come from? We have been told that when the light of the sun falls on an object, only its color is reflected in our eyes.
goes so far as to say that by the time the light of the sun hits our eyes, it has lost most of its content. It has been reflected and is dead. We live in a dead world. There could be much more in the sun's light than we know. According to Scaligero we are surrounded by a world of which we know extraordinarily little. The light of our sun is the source of everything on earth and we are not conscious of it. We are 90% blind. How can you explain color to somebody who is color blind?
For more details, read "The Light " by Massimo Scaligero. (This is not the kind of literature you take to bed with crackers). If he is correct, we may have to rediscover through our thinking what the primitive people who venerated the sun already knew through their intuition.
If you like numbers, it is estimated that the Earth has been receiving an average of 164 to 340 watts per square meter every day.
This is significantly more than the total energy used every day, worldwide. This outpouring of energy has been ongoing for millions of years. What happened to all that energy falling on the ground? We don’t notice it because it is delivered in relatively small doses (compared to the sun's effects), but we cannot ignore its cumulative impact. The arable land could have been produced by exposing the earth to the sun’s effects for millions of years. This exposure is still going on. There is more to come.
We could say that the arable earth, plants, animals, and humanity are an “implementation” of the light received from our sun over millions of years. We started with a piece of rock, six million years ago. Very slowly, the light from our sun transformed this rock and covered it with a thin layer of arable land. Under the increased sun, the plants began to grow, followed by animals and the human species.
That is only half the story. This is only the material aspect of our sun’s influence. The immaterial side of the sun’s light was also transforming the earth. It created what we see today as heat, life, consciousness, love, and all those things that are important in our lives but don’t have shape or weight. That cannot be proven, of course. This is not a domain where experimentation is feasible.
