Your gaseous bodies. Your star. Surely you don't really believe your a living god.

If I had the hands to face palm through text... This is one of those things that makes one wish for a return to the 1920s. Recently it was found that not all that long ago we had a much thicker Hydrosphere on Earth. Then it declined (a misguiding understatement I know). Studies suggest that the Hydrosphere is capable of staving off various radiation pollution that comes with sunlight. Specifically in one study, this Hydrosphere staved of UV light. It was found that if one removes the UV light pollution to what it was at the prime of the Hydrosphere plants and animals grow to a much greater size than they do today. This continued to be the case with organics until roughly 100,000 years ago.
Recently, a study suggested that very shortly the changing magnetism of the poles could result in us actually seeing Aurora Borealis in many places around the Earth as multiple 'poles' form, with this increasing for roughly 375 years. Eventually, two new poles should result or some other form of magnetic balance. Similar studies have also found that currently the magnetic shield around the planet is at about 12% of its maximum output as suggested from historical data derived from soil and fossil samples from the last 60 million to 100 million years. Some scientists believe this may be something that is cyclic and there a good deal of evidence to support this. However, it is not certain what this means for our current era nor how long it will be before the shield returns to its maximum.
I find this thread interesting because all of these things are being found in a decline recently. It could be that this is part of a greater solar cycle which we have not enough history to currently make a clear hypothesis on.
It may also be this is unrelated, so much as things are to each other, and that this is really something unique to the sun and again not part of the solar cycles as a whole. By solar cycles I mean, those cycles which involve the solar system as a whole; not just the sun's cycles.
This probably deserves a lot more attention than it is getting. Sadly, most funding that goes to space observation is ridiculously starved. It's another one of those issues we'll probably severely neglect without understanding the impact that such neglect has on everything. Kind of like electricity.

Some very interesting observations and ideas. I think you are on to something there. Please provide some links to the things you discussed.

look up Kent Hovind's, The Hovind Theory and check out his theory on the ice age.

The status of the Heliosphere can only be plotted on a very short and very refined scale. due to the nature of the boundary it must exhibit some fluctuations as the Sun drives toward Alpha Centauri and the Solar Wind meets the Galactic Garbage.

The gravity from the system as a whole would effect the shape of the heliosphere, thus lending an astroillogical aspect to the equations.

Isn't it a little telling that God was so allusory in his descriptions of the end games, almost like they could apply to any number of situations across time and still be held as the immediate goings on by the true believers?
