Well it WAS only a theory.
Maybe you should explain that to all the people posting threads with words like
FACTS
PROOF
PROVEN
Because this "theory" has been peddled here many times under various monikers in various forum sections, and it was never reported as, or treated as, a "theory". It was a FACT that the rest of us SHEEPLE were too STUPID and CLOSED MINDED to see.

That's what this is.
An observation was made. Earthquakes appear to closely correlate with Elenin alignments with the earth and the sun. This is a fact.
A hypothesis is made. Elenin is causing earthquakes when it lines up with the earth and the sun at the same time.
An experiment is conducted to prove or disprove the hypothesis. Predict an earthquake to occur during the next alignment. This is very similar to how Einstein's General Relativity Theory was tested. We wait for an astronomical alignment, observe the outcome, and determine if the data supports the hypothesis.
The experiment is being conducted now. It's still to early to tell. The experiment is ongoing, but we have the likes of stereologist who jump the gun and bash people's integrity and call them non-scientist before the experiments are complete.
Typical pseudoscientist response,"shoot the messenger.". He doesn't want to use the scientific method, but rather relies on his own conjecture. When someone who claims to be a scientist refuses to allow the experiment to be performed before developing and pursuing preconceived ideas, the scientist is not a scientist, but a preacher. Time to quit your day job and pursue your calling as a theologist.

I use the Mayan 9th Wave and Timewave Zero and based on both of these its not the 26th-28th......Its OCT 1.
My guess it has nothing to do with any planets but financial collapse and then war within 60 days.

This is for all those Elenin Earthquakes conspiracy theorists, it's time for you to come out of your hiding places and prove your theory to the World or whatever excuse you're going to come up with to clarify your failed theory and predictions.
Just out of curiosity... from someone firmly on the fence...a question; If something does happen in the remainder of today.. or 26th-27th-28th-29th-30th september as many people have had feelings about (myself included, although I don't think it's elenin related at all) are the elenin-thread-bashers going to apologise?
I'm just wondering because you seem so hell-bent on getting an apology or some admittance of failure from people because their theory, or feelings about this, don't sit right with you.. If something big happens, and this is just for speculation purposes...
ARE YOU going to say ''alright yep, we were wrong, sorry for doubting you, we wont jump down people's throats and insist we are right, when in reality none of us know what the hell is going on"
Didn't think so..

The hypothesis doesn't say ALL earthquakes are caused by cosmic alignments. The alignments that you speak of is the alignment of the center of all the objects. The hypothesis does not state that an earthquake will occur when the center of the earth aligns with the center of the sun and the center of Elenin, does it?
The alignments are not off by much. The EQ that are part of this theory are the three mentioned, Chile, Christschurch, and Japan. An 8 occurs about once a year, a 9, once every 10 years. For you to say these fall within normal parameters just goes to show us that we shouldn't even bother reading what your post.

No it was being promoted as inevitable and anyone who did not believe in the inevitable was at best a sheepie and at worst a NASA/Illuminati/TPTB disinfo agent.
The language used and agitated anger was palpable from those who "KNEW" the truth about Elenin.
So a theory is acceptable but this was not a theory it was a religious crusade (in fact it is still going on but as with all false conspiracies the goalposts are moving to encompass the current truth rather than admit to being wrong)
The OP is absolutely correct to ask these aggressive individuals to explain themselves.
