Eletricty was discover by ancient man, through the domestication of cats.

We think of the age of electricity to be quite recent, but I am certain that primitive man and even animals have encountered the phenomenon in it's natural form forever. Electric eels never made great pets, but cats did, and so the myth, then cult, then technology developed.
This is obviously not a scientific theory, merely an anthropological hypothesis, albeit absurd.

I think a cat would argue that they have yet to be domesticated.

So where is the story about how domesticating cats helped man discover energy? Asking for a friend (PS his name may or may not be Butcherguy...)

I don't understand? Cats led to technology? Are you talking about static electric in their fur or something?

Well considering lightening has been around for a bit,,, I'd say discovery isn't the right word..

It's kind of like going into a parking lot and discovering a car...

NO idea what OP is talkin' about, but I do love cats and I am pro cat! They are spectacular creatures!

Exactly my point, you can't really have a pet lightning bolt now can you.

Yours was a great post anyway!

Ok. so let's presume for the sake of argument, that cats domesticated us for purpose of the propagation of electricity.
How do we proceed ?

If I were to elaborate about my plan to proceed, I fear that a mod would be obligated to remove my post.

In other words, cat domesticated us..

and we're still in the dark as to the fact that without them we would have never managed to to store seed, grain for agriculture thus stopped being nomadic hunter-gatherers thus developed the need for lighting & powering any permanent dwellings

I'm intrigued. and obviously discression is advised.
perhaps you can illuminate the situation that will not raise reg flags ?

Perhaps I can step in and provide a kinder and gentler and mod friendly response that will still fulfill the original intent of the original thought....DENY IGNORANCE which is also the site motto.

So what you are saying is:
Two cats with Geiger counterz, did an experiment on Schrödinger ?]

My guess would be static lol. My cat zapped me a few times.

But if you didn't know what a car was or why it existed, you might just worship it out of fear.

In the end, there would be fewer cats.
