Electric Sun

Okay, that was pretty good.

Hey, it was even completely accurate until the point where I was Scandinavian and as frail as someone with osteogenesis imperfecta. Which has pretty much been my entire life.

Just remember that Galileo probably had days like this. In fact, I think it would be a good idea if you mentioned that to your audience, once in a while.

So, if I connect a storage battery to dying people I can capture human souls?

At last, the mystery of who broke into the Magrathean Plan Room has finally been solved.

This is all very reminiscent of the work of a member going by the name of Novagaea, over here

I’m the end result of an inquisitive mind. Go and rock yourself to sleep in the corner and gibber about ether and souls and energy fields. Framing your refusal to learn in terms of maintaining some sort of virginal creative state is a cop-out.

It explains lightning and the accelerating solar wind and the rotation of the galaxies better than the mainstream model. What’s so clear about, “Gravity can’t explain it until we take our dark matter and put it anywhere in our computer models that we want. See? Now the galaxies in our models don’t fly apart anymore!”

I guess I missed that part. How exactly does it explain the accelerating solar wind? How does an electric field accelerate both positively and negatively charged particles?

And how exactly does it explain galactic rotation? If electric force is holding the galaxy together, causing it to rotate like a rigid body, what charge distribution is necessary for that?

General Relativity explains large scale cosmology wonderfully. Its mathematical model makes predictions (energy shedding in binary neutron star systems) that can be verified through observation. When observations diverge from the model there are a few explanations such as

  1. The model is incomplete
  2. The model is complete but there is an undetected variable (say a non luminous mass)

Maybe even you, hiding under the bed sheets, have heard about how Neptune was detected?

Wait, wait, wait, hang on. From what I can gather, your theory relies heavily on dark energy and/or dark matter. So how exactly can you go sneering at the mainstream scientists when they supposedly use it as well?

OK. Two points:

First, provide evidence that current physicists “put” “dark matter” “anywhere in [their] computer models” to prevent galaxies from flying apart. You have made the claim, support it.

Second, how is moving “dark matter” around any different than claiming that the sun is powered by an electrical current that we cannot detect?

(bolding mine)

You have simply replaced one source of energy that you fail to understand with a new source of energy that you claim you cannot even find.

Sure. Just don’t cross the streams.

The sun, the sun, the sun is electric. The sun, the sun, the sun is electric. The sun, the sun, the sun is electric. We don’t need no proof let the insults fly. Fly insults fly fly.

Wow… I come back to a thread after not reading it for a day, and the topic has shifted from electricity in the sun to whether or not souls exist? How did that happen?

Just following the logic of the OP.

It turns out nonsense, like pudding, is homogenous.

The nonsense flows invisibly and undetectably through the pudding, stirring it.

I figured that one out years ago thanks to Bill Cosby.

Jam Roly Poly is not homogenous; it’s suffused by a swirly conglomeration of fruit confection that, even though it cannot be detected or described, is tasty and delicious. Spotted dick, on the other hand, contains powerful dark currants.
