Solar Eruptions Hit Home


Sep 5th, 2011 | By | Category: Energy, Solar, Top Headline | Print This Article

The sun is entering a period of increased activity, and massive solar eruptions are beginning to wreak havoc on modern technology. A recent solar eruption disrupted radio communication in China, and there is concern that further eruptions could disrupt daily life on a wider scale.

Scientists have long predicted that solar storms could disrupt global communications and affect telephone and power networks. A powerful solar eruption known as the Carrington Event struck in 1859, causing fires and shorting out telegraph wires. Imagine how much more powerful this disruption would be with modern infrastructure; with communications and power shorted out, global chaos would ensue. The U.S. National Academy of Sciences estimates that the disruptions and destruction caused by such storms could exceed $2 trillion and require years to rebuild all affected infrastructure and systems.

According to NASA, the Carrington Event was a solar storm of such magnitude that the skies were filled with red auroras, compass needles pointed in the wrong direction, and electric current passed through the Earth’s topsoil. The storm was caused by a coronal mass ejection that hit the Earth’s magnetic field with such intensity that it created vibrations and sent currents through both the ground and atmosphere. Luckily, solar storms of this magnitude are rare events.

Solar Storms Explained

The sun has an activity cycle that spans eleven years. Solar eruptions vary in strength depending on the point in the sun’s cycle, and its activity has been steadily increasing. Experts believe the cycle’s peak may occur in 2013 or 2014, with stronger storms and more potent effects expected during that time.

The sun produces two types of solar storms: solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs). Both types of storms are caused by disruptions of the sun’s magnetic field. Solar flares and CMEs are both capable of causing massive problems for the high-tech systems that our modern civilization depends on.

Solar flares send bursts of radiation in the form of waves of photons into space. They are categorized with three different strength levels: Class C, Class M, and Class X. If these erupt toward Earth, they can have a powerful effect on communications, as seen by the event in China. The eruption that affected Chinese radio waves was a Class X, one of the most powerful solar flares possible.

As the sun is nearby in stellar terms, particles from solar flares can reach the Earth in a matter of minutes. The photons travel so rapidly through space that little warning is possible if this type of eruption is detected. Flares can also cause technical difficulties for satellite systems, which can disrupt global services such as communications and GPS along with high-frequency radio waves.

Coronal mass ejections are fiercer storms. The ejections send giant clouds of plasma billowing into space along the path of the eruption, and this can cause more severe consequences for us on Earth. The particles take longer to travel from the sun to the Earth, but they react more forcefully with our planet than solar flares do.

The Carrington Event is a prime example of a CME. The storm was so powerful that it caused the Earth’s magnetic field to shake, sending geo-magnetically induced currents through the soil and atmosphere. Stronger current such as these have the potential to overload circuits and short out transformers.

A more recent example of this type of storm hit Canada’s province of Quebec on March 13, 1989. The storm was not as severe as the Carrington Event was, but it disrupted the province’s power grid for more than nine hours. The storm also damaged transformers in three countries and caused numerous power anomalies across the United States. A series of milder CMEs that hit in October 2003 caused a blackout in Sweden and damaged transformers in another country.

As this type of eruption can directly affect the earth’s magnetic field, CMEs have the potential to disrupt planetary communications and power grids. While issues such as disrupted communications are difficult to prepare for, it is possible to stock up and be ready for widespread power outages and other damage.

Purchasing a generator or having a power source not connected to the grid will be essential to limit the amount of time your family must go without electricity. Having electricity-free backups, such as a fireplace or wood stove for heat, a camp stove for cooking, and candles and kerosene lanterns for light, will help you ride out long-term power and communications interruptions.

Solar storms are a serious and continuing problem for everyone, in every country on Earth. Staying informed about the solar cycle and expected storms will allow you to prepare and stock up on necessary items before storms hit, thus minimizing their effects on your household.

    The solar storms will not wait until 2013! This is why:

    POSTED ON 15 AUGUST ON ATS WEB-SITE.
    Several things need to be looked at in order to show evidence that the earth is, in fact, changing its polar axis with respect to the sun: 1. Last winter Alaskans, including the Intuits, reported that the sun “came back early” this year. 2. This summer someone reported from the South Pole science station that they were having 5 hours of daylight when it should still be completely dark. 3. Now this report from Scotland that the sun is tracking across the sky in an abnormal path. 4. Here, on the ATS web-site is a report from Greenland about sun anomalies and the rapidly melting glaciers. What can be the common denominator that will explain these events if not the fact that our world’s polar axis is changing with respect to the sun. Normally the polar axis is inclined by 23.4 degrees from the polar axis of the sun. That must be changing to explain the anomolies listed here from 1 thru 4.
    So, what celestial force could be large enough to move the earth’s orientation in this manner? These two links will give you a good idea of what is happening and why: http://www.scribd.com http://www.unleavenedbreadministries.org
    The planet Saturn has already been massively influenced by these two astronomical objects Elenin and Nibiru. Saturn is a gas giant with a huge magnetosphere that has been torqued out of its normal polar axis alignment with respect to the sun. Our world, the Earth, is much smaller and very dense compared to Saturn and is reacting more slowly to the influence of Elenin and Nibiru, but it is reacting.
    So why don’t we hear something from our respective governments? The coming problems are too large for governments to solve. A few decade ago the decision was made to keep all of this a secret. Governments have known this was going to happen at least since 1983 when the first Infrared Telescope (IRAS) was launched into orbit by the United States. Since then most 1st world governments have been busy building underground facilities in order to survive and reestablish control after the worst is over. Russia is probably close to finishing its 25 square mile underground facility that is planned to house 600,000 people. Recently, the USA FAA declared about 40 new no-fly zones in the United States. They are manning and stocking their many underground facilities and don’t want any witnesses. In the U.S., Homeland Security has announced a crash buying spree of 1 Billion dollars worth of survival food and supplies. Manufacturers are given no choice but to sell only to the government according to government rules. A few years ago the British and Spanish royal families established compounds in the New Zealand highlands. Bill Gates also has a compound in that area. If you want to prove this is true for yourself then locate the North Star, if you can, early in the evening and establish a line-of-sight. The peak of a roof from the proper location on the ground will do. Get up before daylight the next morning and check your alignment again. If the North Star has not moved, the polar axis will not have moved at all. If there is a change in the location of the North Star from the evening before, that is proof the axial tilt of our world is in the process of changing. This is simple common sense physics. Why haven’t prominent and independent scientists raised this issue? Besides the fact that most scientists are basically “mechanics” at what they do, they are greatly influenced by a herd mentality and are very afraid of criticism from their peers. Also most scientists are not theoreticians who take seemingly unrelated facts and put them together where the whole picture makes sense. Also most news agencies are controlled by the government. I am not a scientist but I have a good grasp on fundamental physics and what I have described here has been proved by the actions of our governments by their massive preparations for the coming events. If you don’t believe any of this, believe me when I tell you that the governments of the world believe every bit of it and are making the appropriate preparations. Why are they doing this? They don’t want your competition for the available survival foods and supplies. They can’t save the majority of their people but they can save themselves.
    So what’s the worse-case scenario? As more and more of the North and South Poles are exposed to the sun, massive melting of the polar ice-caps will occur. The very old theoretically question of “What would happen if all the ice melted in the polar regions?” now becomes not so theoretical. The answer then and now is; “The ocean levels will rise about 200 feet around the world”. Maybe you can understand why governments want to keep this a secret to avoid a panic while they’re stocking up on food and supplies?
    So, what other evidence is there that this is going to happen? The presence of Elenin passing between our world and the sun around 17 October of this year will kick off several massive earthquakes. When that happens, seriously consider that all of this that I have described is also true.
    “Solar flares will also be in plentiful supply before and after Elenin passes”.

    • mazedaze says:

      Finally, I am reading what I have been learning. Thank you so much for your post! What you say is so true, the Gov’t and the Rich elite are in it to save themselves. I buy feeze dried and dehydrated foods from a number of preparedness web sites.There were many times where a notice was posted that freeze dried foods were not available to purchase until further notice because the Gov’t was buying so much that they could not obtain more to re-stock. Physics and scientists have stated that we are entering the solar maximus. Do not rely on anyone but yourself to prepare. Find, if you can, a like-minded community. Above all, (using the ant and grasshopper parable), be like the ant and stock up on food and supplies. It is also a good idea to stock up on water, in the future, it will become more valuable than gold.

    • tcjr76 says:

      It sure didn’t take the gov long to break the links to the websites you gave!

    • StingraySFO says:

      I first became aware of this probability in 1960 while in Naval Special Warfare Covert Ops training. I’ve been activly observing it ever since, and just a few days ago tried to explain it to my wife. She now realizes that this is very likely to have a profound effect on the Earth, but says she is resigned to it because there’s nothing we can do about it. Contrary to her thinking, I have established our home to be completly off the grid in all manners. During the 2007 ice storm that left our area without any utilities of any kind for 12 days, we were the ONLY home to be in a state of normality with no thoughts of any discomfort. My whole house generator performed flawlessly, the well was not affected, nor was our satellite Internet or TV, and our food supply was sufficient to have lasted another 12 days without any cutbacks from our normal usage. Waste was never a problem as I had installed a very large oversized septic system. The ONLY problem was that of several trees in the forrest area surrounding us having fallen due to the excessive weight of the ice accumulation, with numerous branches breaking off. As the immediate area around our home had been cleared of trees, it was only the sounds of the snapping branches that had any effect. Sounded like a war zone, day and night, but now we have a nearly clear view of the lake 200 yards away!
      Anyone poo pooing the fact that this can and will happen is putting themselves and their friends and family at risk!

    • JHarpsterB says:

      Simple physics? When you have a glass full of water and ice and note the level of the water before and after the ice melts. You will notice the level of the water goes down not up. Water as a solid / Ice displaces more area than water as a liquid. Now that’s Simple physics……….

      • hlane says:

        You forgot that glaciers are supported by land and when they melt add to the volume of water. True that ice floating will not affect the waster level except for tides (more fluid)

        • havbrew says:

          You seem to forget that the North Pole is a floating ice barge. It’s only the South Pole that actually has a land mass under it. Simple math would indicate that these 2 would cancel each other out. + or – a bit due to size differences (I don’t know what they are)

  2. Kathy Harpster says:

    What can we do? will solar power work after the CME’s? (Portable sealed lead-acid batteries)

  3. Mike Austin,TX says:

    Interesting theory. I do not trust any Gov’t as far as I can throw them. But, in order to keep a secret of this magnitude, they would have had to eliminate many prominent scientists and other officials who would not keep the secret. Name a few that have disappeared.
    I believe in being perpared. How would one prepare for this?
    What will you say on Oct 18th if nothing happens? Ooops…my bad?
    I will also be checking on the “no fly zone” claim.

  4. Kathy Harpster says:

    How far underground do we need to go?

  5. juli kuhl says:

    not sure why my vote about disaster preparedness was rejected because i “already voted”. i had not. can’t find #48 to verify. probably doesn’t matter but i thought i’d let you know about the error anyway. :)

  6. RJB says:

    Why are governments building underground bunkers if the oceans are going to rise 200 feet around the world, doesn’t sound like a good place to be?

    • Vindi says:

      There is NO hiding from the wrath of the Lamb!! Those that plan on riding out 3 to 5 yrs underground are in for a rude awakening (if they wake up). Those bunkers will become their tombs. Possibly drown, or being crushed from the caves collapsing in on them, from the massive earthquakes. Those “bunkers” are NOT going to save them.

      • chris says:

        That’s exactly right.

        For those unsaved, Jesus will slaughter them with a sword in the battle of Armegeddon, and burn their souls for eternity with is ultimate wickedness and hate. Even Satan can’t begin to match Jesus on the level of torment Jesus is going to cast on our fellow man.

        It won’t matter if your in a sphere bunker 80′, thick on a mountain top, with an oxygen re-breather system.

        • het261 says:

          wow… I am sure glad my Jesus only has plans to love EVERYONE back to Heaven.

        • Deborah says:

          Are you sure it is the Jesus of the New Testament that you are referring to? God said He was not willing that any should perish but that all would come to repentance. I think the thing that makes Him angry is our divisions, denominations, multiple dogmas, pride, arrogance, self-centeredness and our huge selfish waste of money. and I’m just talking about His church here! We are so busy building our own denominational and personal kingdoms that we barely recognize His! Jesus was clear….”by this shall ALL men know that you are my disciples, if you have love, one for another! Period. I pray that we all will die daily to self so that we may live unto Christ! May the God of peace give you understanding.

          • chris says:

            I’m pretty sure that if he changed that much he’d be imperfect. He basically says the same thing in the new testament too.

            The man in Luke 16:24 cries: “. . .I am tormented in this FLAME.”

            In Matthew 13:42, Jesus says: “And shall cast them into a FURNACE OF FIRE: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.”

            In Matthew 25:41, Jesus says: “Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting FIRE,. . .”

            Revelation 20:15 says, ” And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the LAKE OF FIRE.”

            In the book Revelations, the last book of the Bible he’ slaughters millions. There is so much blood that the blood runs like rivers. Read it.

            Hopefully you’re fortunate enough to be born into a Christian family and not a Muslim one. Because people seldom leave the religion they were raised with.

            For those not fortunate enough, I’m sorry. Jesus is going to make them burn forever-unless you don’t believe the Bible fully.

          • Christina says:

            Amen!!! That is exactly what Jesus said!!!! We should not judge others, but follow in the footprints of our Saviour, listen to His teachings and keep our minds, hearts and eyes on Him. Be selfless, not selfish, forgive and love each other, and extend a helping hand to those who have fallen as He has extended His hand to us!!! These are just some of the basic principles of Love that Jesus taught His deciples. God Bless us All!!!!!

    • Tanktop6 says:

      If the oceans are rising 200 feet, that tells me to go to higher ground, not underground. I guess I’m glad I dont live near the ocean, at least then I should have enough time to get to an elevation 200′ higher than the ocean. I don’t understand why having an underground structure during this is necessary. Perhaps a sail boat would be a good investment. I also dont trust the government much, but typically there is a “leak” and then a very good lie follows. I guess I’ll mark it on the calendar to see what happens. This reminds me of the peoe saying the world was ending earlier this year…and nothing happened.

  7. Vindi says:

    Ya know what? You do whatcha can do….being most folks don’t have an extra cent to stash food away, you get what you can get. Canned veggies on sale: Get 2 extra cans of peas. Rice is still relatively cheap. Get a bag of it. Grab a bag of beans (15 bean is my favorite) Beans can be canned. Use 1 cup of any type of beans, 1 tsp of REAL salt & whatever spices you normally put into bean soup. Fill mason jar to the neck. Pressure cook for 40 min. @ 10 lbs of pressure. Complete meal for 2 people. Whip up some flat bread/corn bread and supper is ready. Dehydrate plenty of onions/garlic for future seasoning of blah foods. Learn to sprout. It’s easy!!
    When the grid goes down: Have plenty of candles, lamp oil, wicks. Flash lights are good, but they need batteries. Unless you have tons of batteries stockpiled? I don’t. Learn to cook on an open fire. Have to use cast iron/stainless steal pot & pans. Have lots of water put back. Get some MSM to sterilze your water in the jugs. Gotta have water…..and lots of it!!! Cooking, drinking, bathing. Don’t forget your animals.
    Above everything else, do something….anything…..to be able to not only help yourself, but to help others.
    Things are going to get ugly….pray & keep the faith. Father is fully aware of what’s going on. Lean on him.

    • Antonio B says:

      You have a great attitude and approach. Take small steps towards safeguarding yourself and family. Like I’ve learned, “there’s power in the blood of Jesus”, take it in prayer.

    • Daniel from TN says:

      There are now flashlights that do not require batteries. You just shake them for abot 30 seconds and they stay lit for about two hours. After that, shake again.

  8. Vindi says:

    Ooops, forgot to write this: Most folks will have to hunker down in place. No digging down 40′, etc. The biggest threat will be looters. Those that refused to plan/prep….will come for those items YOU put back & prepared for.
    Once the cities are cleaned out, there will be gangs of looters moving out into the rural areas. Just a heads up.
    If you aren’t one of the elite, you aren’t going to have a seat in one of the underground bunkers. Watch Marshall Masters video on ELEnin & Nibiru. Very informative. Mr Masters is down to earth, and doesn’t sugar coat anything. We can only do what we can do. It is what it is!!! Prepare the best you can, with what you have.
    Most importantly…..focus on the Lord. It’ll help to keep you calm. Lord told us “Fear not”……

    • Mike Austin,TX says:

      Is there any data or evidence of this nibiru or is this similar to heavens gate cult? Belief is one thing, proof is another. Unless this guy has access to NASA satelite data, I think I will prepare for the dollar crash instead. Now there is some real hard data you can rely on. Which one makes more sense?
      It also has the benefit of preparing for potential sloar flares or CME power grid disruptions.

  9. Mike Austin,TX says:

    http://tfr.faa.gov/tfr2/list.html
    This is regarding the No Fly zones. As far as I can tell, they are mostly to clear airspace for planes fighting fires. No nefarious reasons there. There are alot of wildfires going on right now. We ARE in a drought here..
    I am sure they will remove the restriction when fires are under control.
    What else do you have?

  10. Texan says:

    RJB: Think about it. The places where these underground bunkers are located sit at much higher and inland locations than 200 ft asl. Get on youtube and search for D.U.M.B.S., and you will have a wide variety of videos to watch about these “bunkers”. The photos are breathtaking!

    Mike in Austin: Peer pressure and the bought and paid for MSM (who only report what they are told) are the reason that they will not make this headline news. It’s that simple. Also, my husband and I fly in our own small aircraft frequently, and we were recently passing through New Mexico and had stopped to refuel in Santa Fe. I noticed that hubby was having to be redirected due to a big no fly zone. If you know anything about New Mexico, you will remember that our govt. has MANY secret facilities there. Also, we often see, while flying over the US, those mysterious gated facilities with hundreds, if not thousands, of jumbo black casket-like containers lined up. We have seen them largely in the interior of the country.

    • Mike Austin,TX says:

      Get any pictures of thes jumbo caskets like objects? Locations? I would be interested to see some hard data. . Did your NM flight happen to coincide with that huge fire in late June?
      I know the MSM does not print anything of value. This is why I read alternate news.
      There are many reasons for TFR’s. Are you talking a permanent airspace restriction in NM?

  11. Mike A says:

    This planet Has a long rotation into our area and the great flood of Noah lines up to the time it would have been here before. This talk of increased earthquakes sound a lot like what the book of revelations says so,we might also expect something to like elenin or yu-55 to slash down in our oceans. May god take care of us in these times we as humans must stick togather even if our goverment won’t help us which they won’t we must help each other God Bless Us All.

    NEW TECHNOLOGY BREAKTHROUGH PROTECTS WORLD POWER GRID FROM PREDICTED SOLAR FLARES 2012/2013
    White Springs, FLA) — Astronomers, NASA and others are warning of oncoming solar flares that will be similar to the 1882 TRANSIT OF VENUS solar storm that burned up Western Union which was the only technology then. Experts advise oncoming flares will burn up anything solid-state such as computers, radio and TV transmitters and cell towers as they all use some form of DC 70 Volt bus systems. Eastern Canada was hit by a small flare in 1989 and it burned out power transformers and some people were left for 9 months without power. On the web is a FOX news video where Bill Hemming interviews Physics Professor Dr. Michio Kaku who told of the terrible future. Food and toilet paper will be more valuable than money. Other “experts” predict 90% of the USA population will die after three months without power. (see report at EMPCOMMISSION.ORG) The FCC is setting up special Solar Flare and EMP-Proof buildings across the USA fitted out with 5 thousand watt AM transmitters with local studios and generators and a large supply of fuel as you read this.
    None of this has to happen now. About six months ago Chuck Harder set up a group of degreed electrical engineers, radio and TV engineers and scientists. We designed a bundle of technology that is inexpensive and will save the Grid from Solar Flares or an EMP bomb. Already some Grid managers who have seen the data are amazed. SIEMENS and BROWN BOVARI now have the package and we will have full details for engineering in a 40 page PDF package at: http://WWW.CHUCKHARDER.COM the package can be used by any country or company and we can assist with suppliers of items. We do not ask for any money up front. When our bundle of technology is used we ask for whatever donation that the users decide to send us: Harder Group, PO Box A, White Springs, FL 32096.

    Prepare, for the end! But no bunker can stop Jesus.

    Jesus is going to burn and torture 50-90% of you forever. Some of you will even be killed by his sword during the battle of Armagedden. That includes your unsaved kids, relatives, and grandparents. If you don’t like Jesus preaching too bad. You’ll burn for it. The Bible says the way to destruction is broad but the path to salvation is narrow, and that hell is eternal.

    Jesus teaches us to be loving to others in this world, so he can release his ultimate hate on everyone that isn’t perfect, and doesn’t accept him.

    Maybe be one of the few chosen ones that escape his pure wrath and wickedness.

    • Tom Eagan says:

      Ultimate hate?! God is not about hate, he is waiting to return so that as many as possible will be saved. I think you need to reread your New Testament!

      • chris says:

        What would you call burning someone alive forever, falling, being eaten by worms? Love?

        Jesus teaches love in this world, not the next one for most. It’s not for us to torture our enemies, friends, and family, but for Jesus. Jesus says he’ll take way our memories of it, so its not all bad.

        We won’t need to feel guilty.

        In Luke 16, Jesus Christ gives a frightening picture of hell:

        22 . . . the rich man also died, and was buried;
        23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
        24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
        25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.
        26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.
        27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father’s house:
        28 For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. (Luke 16:22-28)

        Jesus will save a few of the chosen ones, but I imagine that number will be very small given the size of the population, and the strict rules for salvation.

        Probably most of the people you know in your life will be burned by Jesus, but again, he’ll wipe away our tears a make use forget the billions of people he’s tormenting.

        The chosen might not even remember having a mother!

        • Solitaire says:

          Chris,

          I’m sorry to say but while you posted scripture, you are an idiot. Jesus does not hate anyone and God does not send anyone to hell. Those who end up in hell do so by their unwillingness to believe in Christ. The only requirement for going to heaven is faith in Christ to save you.

          Check out I John 1:9, that says it all.

          • chris says:

            Another person that just wants to read ‘the good parts’.
            Romans 9:13 ‘As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated’.

            God hates certain individual as well as groups.

            If you created a huge furnace, and they burned people in it, how would you not be the source? God can do whatever he wants he’s God, but the same rules of morality don’t apply to us.

            Only read the parts that make you happy, Solitaire. Your living in a dream world already.

            The man in Luke 16:24 cries: “. . .I am tormented in this FLAME.”

            In Matthew 13:42, Jesus says: “And shall cast them into a FURNACE OF FIRE: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.”

            In Matthew 25:41, Jesus says: “Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting FIRE,. . .”

            Revelation 20:15 says, ” And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the LAKE OF FIRE.”

            Most people won’t believe the truth because there’s hundreds of other religions, and/or they don’t see Christ in the lives of people from the church. Most people are still burned by Jesus. With all the information we have today, with conflicting ideas, accepting Jesus for some is like chanting the magic password to get out of hell. That’s why I believe in predestination.

            Most people don’t change the religions they were born with. Just be glad you weren’t born in a Muslim country, Solitaire.

    I wonder if it was an event of this sort that blacked out the northeastern United States in the late 1960′s (I lived through it but can’t remember the year any more)? As I recall, the trigger was several transformers burning out in one particular place, but no cause for that was ever announced. That led to a cascade of overloads and shutdowns.

    Perhaps the Lord has given His warning to all of us! Browse to http://www.jkmi.com and read the Lord’s warning yourself under “Jesus King of All Nations”. The Lord will not be mocked! It is time for all governments and all societies start obeying God’s rules as in the Ten Commandments and the Beatitudes in the Gospels and in the Bible. Pray for an end to abortion which is the killing of the unborn babies in the womb, [over 50 million unborn babies have been murdered / "aborted"]and pray for all to follow God’s laws about marriage — one man and one woman. Avoid ‘sodomy’, which is the more correct term to use for homosexual immoral acts. Take advice from Ezekiel 3:16-21 and Matthew. God be with you all! Follow the recommendations from Our Lady of Fatima [see http://www.fatima.org ]…

    There always seems to be something left out of these predictions. Since the earth is rotating at it’s set degree of rotation not allowing sunlight to get to the poles causing all percipitation from the clouds to come down as constant snow forming the glaciers at the poles in the first place. The thing I see that is left out is, if this degree of rotation changes exposing the glaciers to more sunlight, then wouldn’t the cold areas, or in this case, the poles move as well. Since the natural movement of water is evaporation, cloud formation, then percipitation or rain back to earth, then wouldn’t it be logical to think that the movement of the poles will cause areas that now have rainwall to now only have snowfall, creating new glaciers and balancing everything out. It doesn’t matter how you change the degree of the axes you’re still going to have these two cold areas where the sunlight can’t get to. I can see if this change happened over night and the temperature at the pole now became as hot as the desert, then you’d have sudden melting of the glaciers and sudden sea level rises, but if the earth changed it’s axes that fast then sea level rise would be the least of or worries because we would more than likely be ejected out into space with such a fast movement. So with a gradual change in the axes, as glaciers melt in one area, wouldn’t new ones will be formed in other areas. Just a thought, what do you think?

    • Tia says:

      That is exactly how I feel about the poles. Yes we may have a higher melt rate then freeze rate, or perhaps a different amount of water that freezes, which of course will affect our sea levels, but our earth balances things out. It also goes thru different stages, such as the ice age, the fire age, and even the flood or water age. Imho it is just time for earth to change again.

    • JJM says:

      With current/historical axis, in summer in northern hemisphere the north pole is aimed slightly towards the sun and in winter slightly away as we rotate around the sun. If the angle is increased so that the poles point more toward (and away from) the sun we can expect hotter summers and colder winters. Will the ice redistribute quickly enough every 6 months? I doubt.
      Yes, north artic is primarily floating ice. south artic is on the continent Antartica (ice on land).
      So some natural balancing may help, I would still expect sea level to rise 100′.

    Dear Family out there,

    Regardless of Nibiru or Elinen (sp?), our GOD is sovereign and has it all in His Hands. And as you were reminded above, we are admonished NOT to fear. This is a time to learn to HEAR the voice of The Spirit of God. He will direct us to safety and keep us safe wherever He has directed us. Those who have been able to prepare, are preparing for many. Do not think in terms of mine and my family’s and no more. We will survive as a community of loving, caring beings, regardless who already is born again and who is not. “Your own” will become those around you. Love one another with true compassionate unbiased love as He loved & LOVES us. Jesus gave His unconditional All that we might live. He is certainly not going to fricassee and fry anyone for all eternity, even the truly wicked who more truly deserve it than the poor slob who never heard the WORD or was never lead by the Holy Spirit to believe and accept. Not to mention those who have been driven away by the words and curses of those like Chris who have yet to know the true nature of the God of the universe. Dear Chris is not alone. There are far far far too many so called Christians who think they know the letter of the Word, but have missed the heart and soul of His message to us through His Son.

    One day Chris will also know the truth and embrace the God who has been working through the milennia to bring the creation back to Himself. Either God is God, or He is a limited being, weaker than the adversary He Himself created (we call Satan) and not able to do what He Himself has declared He will. I for one chose to believe the real message of the book. “That GOD was IN Christ Jesus reconciling THE WORLD onto Himself, not counting their trespasses against them.” But there is justice and not all will have a picnic at the judgement at the Great White Throne at the 2nd resurrection when all the rest are resurrected, including the Christians who didn’t make the 1st resurrection. We have no idea how long that judgement will last, the Greeks and Hebrews had no word for eternity or everlasting in their vocabulary. THe Greek word is aeonian– age-lasting. What we do know from correct translations is that the punishment fits the crime and is corrective, not destructive.

    ANy study of the laws and precepts that Yahweh (Jesus of the OT) taught to Moses and the Children of Israel will reveal that all punishment was corrective both for the victim and for the one who created the crime, regardless of what it was. In extreme cases where there was no retribution possible, as in murder, the murderer forfeited his life, unless it was accidental, then there were Cities of Refuge set up where that one could go and not be killed for accidental death. Why would we think that we are more fair and loving to our own children than our Father God would be to all of His? \Why would we think that our God, who is Justice AND Mercy, would dole out the same punishment to everyone equally when the crimes varied greatly in effect against others? Not even we humans are so unjust and unfair, except the depraved amongst us who have gained power. Is not our God the very epitome of Justice, Love, and Mercy? Justice is NOT equal punishment for both stealing bread for your children who are starving and murdering 100 innocent people in cold blood. All you who teach such nonsense, please study our Manual (The BIBLE) more deeply. And don’t just blindly believe your blind guides without studying the Word for yourself and praying for understanding. You are needed to lead the hurting and wounded to the only True GOD there is and HE is LOVE, not a vindictive vengeful irrational torturerer. HE IS LOVE INCARNATE. AND yes, that love includes righteousness and justice. JUSTICE. NOT INjustice. You are needed to lead them to His arms not drive them to “hell” (for however long) by your judgmental accusations of their present state. And those of you who don’t yet know Him, believe me, He is on your side!!! All you have to do is CALL on Him in the time of trouble, and He is there. Best not to wait, however. It is written, “whoever shall call on the name of the Lord, SHALL be saved!” His arms are always open wide. Test Him!

    To get better understanding of where we are in these wild end times we find ourselves living in, please check out http://www.godskingdomministries.org and http://www.stonekingdom.org. Both are superb Bible teachers and scholars who have the Love of GOD fully formed in their souls and teachings. Dr Jones at the first website has an almost daily blog that also gives you the spiritual understanding of political happenings and natural disasters. It is very comforting to know the spiritual side of all this craziness. Helps to trust Him and not panic. You can study all his writings on his website as well. I recommend The Secrets of Time, The Laws of the Second Coming, The Book of Galatians, Daniel’s Seventy Weeks, and the tiny booklet: If God Could Save Everyone, Would He? Just to mention a few. All are wonderful to the max. As is Dr Bruggeman’s The Sacred Secrets of the Sovereignty of God. Excellent book to teach you trust in the God of the Universe! Once you’ve sought first the Kingdom of GOD, prepare as He leads you! These will be days of multiplication as Jesus did the loaves and fish. Many miracles will be commonplace as He keeps His own and they help keep the rest! Be of good courage. We serve the God of the Whole Universe who loves us passionately AND compassionately! I also recommend Rob Bell’s book called LOVE WINS. Dr Jones has a far deeper explanation on the same subject with enough scriptures to convince all who love the truth. But Love Wins is a great introduction. Be blessed, dear family!

      Good reply to the guy to the poor person who sounds like they belong to one of America’s 3,000 cults. Can’t speak with authority on all you recommended but one of the two great paperbacks I mentioned in both my autobiography and “The Last Days of the Late Great United States and the Great Famine that Followed” is GOD CALLING edited by A. J. Russell. It contains over 360 short teachings or instructions that Jesus gave to a woman in England before WWII when she prayed with her friend over a ten year period. Easily obtainable from eBay or any Christian bookstore this book has inspired millions of every denomination and anyone who is truly trying to learn more about God and what being a Christian is all about would do well to obtain it. And example, “When you see how wonderfully your prayers have been answered, you will regret, deeply regret, that you did not pray more,” and “Your life here is but a parenthesis in a sentence, on a page of the book of your life. Birth opens the parenthesis, death closes it, then back to real life-history. Try to remember this when you are going through times of pain or suffering or sorrow or failure, or even times of success, and joy and elation. It is all just a parenthesis!” May God bless all who read this, and may you discover how very much God really loves you.

    • chris says:

      Jesus went to GREAT lengths to tell us about hell. The Bible actually uses the word hell much more than the word heaven in the Bible.

      If you don’t have a verse for it, then its your own words. No where in the Bible does it say there will be levels in hell. In fact it doesn’t even take much to get into hell. Look at the rich man and the beggar. God didn’t even want the poor man to drip some cool water on the tormented rich man’s tongue. Not one drop.

      Since the old testament , God continued to upgrade hell. It’s even a worse place now by Jesus’s descriptions.

      Think of God more like the loving God, until you do anything he doesn’t like. Kind of like the bi-polar mobster that’s ready to snap at any moment. Joining the club is always free, but you have to keep doing more and more to ‘please’ him, otherwise your not really saved. In the meantime, because you weren’t born with genetic memory, he’s going to punish you for every mistake you make. He could curse you at any time for being so ‘foolish’. Thats probably why Jesus says not to call him ‘good’. Luke 18:19 niv 19″Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone. It’s very hard to call someone good that meat butcher millions, then torture them forever.

      Gods love is infinite-until you question it. Then its the pit for you.

      Of course your first memory could have been of him, with some basic 10 commandments, but he probably just said…Nah, I’ve got better things to do it’s about 11:45 now, I’m just about to call it a day.

      I feel sorry for you, if you feel that anyone ‘deserves’ should be tortured forever. Hitler? For a time perhaps. Not forever. God slaughters people all the time, so do earthquakes and volcanoes. Common sense would dictate that if that were true, then the creator failed.

      You’ll never be able to see that with your Evangelical goggles on. But nor should you, because your extremely comfortable knowing everything, and living in your mental bubble.

      *CHEERS* Here’s to staying the same, and not changing anything you believe. Because in the end, only the important things get communicated by God-not by man.

    I have been aware of the possibility of such and event occuring, Sense 1971. There was a book in print around 25 years ago. That went into great depth in the analyzing of such an event. There is a group or community of sientist in Illinois that believe the earth is going to flip flop and re aline the poles. When it dose only those at the pivatole points will survive as the earth re establises its balance and poles. The name of the book is 552000. If you can get a copy? It is worth reading.

    If the earth dose move considerably, By say 20 to 30 degrees from the north parallel.It might not have to even be that drastic maybe just 10 or 15 degrees eather way. I can say one thing for sure if the earth shifts a 180 degree turn. No matter any drastic shift will then cause. All bodies of water and ice will move across the earth very rapidly. And the tetonic plates will also shift violently.New moutain ranges will be born into exsitance old ones will diapear. By crumbling or be under water. It could be estimated that only 10 to 30 % of all living creatures including humans will survive such a catlismic event.No matter how much you prepare. Nothing will be as we no it. when it is done for those who do survive. They will be once again in the stone age.

    There is evidence that this has happened in the past around fifteen thousand years ago. Some speculate that it may be a cyclic event.

    The best preperation I can advise, Is to get right with our Lord and savior Jesus Christ.

  23. Bob says:

    I will add one thing to what I just wrote. It is quite possible the only way any human beings will survive such a event is to be off the planets surface. or on a space ship. space station, or another planet.

  24. Bob says:

    If it happens it will take less than 24 hours from begining to end.

    Man, you folks are all over the board! I pity the pour soul that ventures into the “comment slag” that you guys have laid down. Alas, for me it’s too late, so what the hell, I might as add my two cents worth: A rising tide lifts all boats. Let me see. . . . I have a choice between, Heaven, Hell, a bunker with a 20-year supply of Beef-a-roni and my weapon of choice, or a first class ticket on the next UFO ? Life is full of really tough choices.

    • chris says:

      LOL. The UFO route would probably be a lot more fun, but you never know. They might want to gather ‘more medical knowledge’ on humans too-if you know what I mean.

      If your serious about getting your bunker prepared read Joel Skousens book ‘The Secure Home’

  26. JHarpsterB says:

    Simple physics? When you have a glass full of ice and note the level of the water before and after it melts. You will notice the level of the water goes down not up. Water as a solid / Ice displaces more area than water as a liquid.

    Jesus is far too BIG to fit into a box with “Grace Only” written on it. God does not send people to Hell. Instead, people choose to go there by rejecting Jesus’ gift of life.

    And yes, this world is going under faster, and faster, the Bible predicted it hundreds of years ago without the scientific knowledge of today. INCREDIBLE! Jesus is indeed returning soon. It’s time to choose where we want to spend eternity. Our souls never die!

    Be blessed, and put your trust in the One who knows…

    • chris says:

      Lets be honest with ourselves. The Bible has had hundreds of years to get you ‘hooked’. If you can’t use your common sense, when it says Jesus is going to slaughter millions, or when Jesus says that he made hell for Fallen Angels-but we’ll use it for humans too. That might be absurd. Let’s see I didn’t create this torture chamber for you because I love your race, but hey your here now…what the heck I’ll put you in it. That’s exactly how the Bible tries pass off the blame of BURNING PEOPLE ALIVE.

      God just is, like gravity. It doesn’t matter if you try to ‘please’ him or not. Doing what you should be doing please him, not groveling like a Dog chanting praise.

      The Bible says that prayer is like a sweet smelling savor to God. I used to pray to Jesus every few minutes. About my family, my friends, my christian service, and the feeling I got from God was ‘shut up’. This isn’t helping you and its not helping me. That’s my personal experience.

      Do what you feel like your supposed to be doing on this earth not, what some man tells you in an old Book. How many times have you heard preachers say, God told me X. When X involved you doing something for the Pastor.

  29. southern patriot says:

    Question. I have read that China has built one of the largest Dams in the world and after it was filled with water the rotation of the earth slowed down. Any truth to that? Also, what about the crystals that were unearthed in Mexico? Can messing with them be causing the earth to rumble with earthquakes. I listened to some old timer’s speak at breakfast one morning and that is what they were claiming. They would say that sometimes we might want to leave things alone? We’re always messing with things that we should not be messing with. With regards to Jesus and his word and If we should believe or not believe in him. This is what I think after 56 years of life on this wonderful planet, as the song goes “Jesus is all right for me”. Yes I fall down and fail everyday to do the very best that I can do. I do not always understand what the heck is going on,but for me and my family, we believe in Jesus and his grace. Peace be with you.Thanks for letting me have my say. Take care SP

    One thing some people have not considered is the increased evaporation which will hold an immense amount of water in the clouds, but also much of that water will more greatly saturate the ground and increase the water table of aquifers. There will also be more water at any given time in lakes and streams. Also, there will be a great increase in vegetation including trees. Of course a huge amount of water is contained in these billions of tons of biomass. So these claims of radically higher ocean levels are greatly exaggerated. The Creator wasn’t so stupid as to not think of these things.
