will break the stereotype in the way things are approached and comes up with a ridiculous, but elegant idea based on a different premise than the
"archcosmology" -- an idea that will take its hold and develops into a black sheep theory just to be vindicated later on.
Plasma cosmology is a fascinating alternative theory, to our current 'standard model' which is, IMO, badly flawed. Don't get me wrong, it ain't
perfect, still has alot of mistakes and suppositions, that it states as 'fact', but it does offer alot more in terms of experimental 'proof'.
IMO, mainstream science at the moment, is a dogmatic belief system, in which only the 'current' theories, or theories that expand the current model,
are accepted, this is a seriously flawed way of thinking and it is showing. The old 'publish or perish' system, is gone and has been gone for a
while, IMO. Now, people are afraid to lose their credibility by coming up with the more bold and exotic ideas, and so, we are stagnating, re hashing
new 'spins' on old ideas, this ain't working.
I can see no way out of this, apart from showing people that there is more to this world, than what is 'currently' discovered, that main stream
science doesn't have the answer to everything, they just have a louder voice than most.
I am not trying to have a go at you, just trying to say that just because a theory hasn't been widely accepted by MSS, doesn't make it wrong, it
just doesn't fit in with their current 'frame of reference'.
One of the greatest things I like about 'plasma cosmology' or 'the electric universe' is the possibilities it would open. Now I know, just because
it has greater possibilities, doesn't mean it is right, but it just makes more sense to me. Everything, in plasma cosmology, is connected, from the
planets, to the stars, to the galaxies, right the way down to your billionth and one atom. It gives rise to an 'Aether' or a pervasive energy that
encompass' anything and everything. Basically, all the supposed 'black technologies' such as ZPE, phase propagation, quantum teleportation, weather
manipulation, none of them, seem like 'sci-fi' when you think about the possibilities that this field would open up.
Sorry for the rant, this subject get's 'brushed' to the side far too quickly and far too much for my liking and it 'grinds my gears'.
