Universe

There are veritably, fifty tons of science programming between the internet and TV. Because these are “doctors of science” we tend to believe what they say without disagreement. After all, what do we know? That depends, doesn’t it? It depends on belief in science without question. Indeed, it is difficult to question vast mathematical formulations leading to this, that, and the other. Most of us took no math past algebra or, perhaps, some calculus. Depends on what we were aiming at in college.

Carbon 14 dating is another of these unquestioned truisms. This planet has to be in the millions of years old if, that is, Carbon 14 dating is accurate in all cases where it is used. Can I beg one inch of that real estate to have a doubt? I know, this all comes from top scientists in their fields who hate being questioned except by their peers. Even then it can get a bit toasty. Plebeians such as I have no pony in the race. You or I couldn’t question a single scientist without observing the grin on their faces. A pat on the head followed by: “Run along now. This is not a place for you.”

I have questions due to my reading of a book since I was twelve. I have studied it long enough to understand that certain things are held back in that book until the time is right. Then, they will become clear. That book doesn’t mention science but it does mention things dubbed as fairy tales by many. I will speak of these things here also. Indeed, I am considering whether this is that time for clarity. All arrows now point to where we stand right now. It is fascinating to understand the cohesion of that book now.
