Many years ago, Wal put out a video, I think titled ‘The Electric Universe’. I have it around here someplace. I was convinced way back then that he had found the truth of the system. I watched the linked video, too. I have had a theory that a planet around which Mars orbited came apart moving Mars to an orbit around the sun where it is now. Before the entire large planet erupted, massive lightening bolts scarred the Moon that is Mars. As a student of the Bible, my imagination ties the planetary event to the Bible phrase ‘the Angels who kept not their first estate’. My imagination also connects the ‘alien visitations’ to this destroyed planet, with the Angels still quarantined to this solar system, and their clone creations as their slaves. My imagination also connects these bad angels to the end times of this planet and the return of The Conquering Messiah. There is coming a great lie ... to explain the sudden disappearance of hundreds of millions in the flash of a moment ...

Excerpt:

‘Talbott and Thornhill do not accept Velikovsky’s specific chronology of events, and they place the age of planetary upheaval just prior to the flowering of monumental civilization, which they see as a creative act of human REMEMBERING. Rather than declare Velikovsky to be categorically “right” or “wrong”, they cite these claims as crucial to any assessment of Velikovsky’s contribution to science—

1. The present order of the planets is new. In geologically recent times the planetary system was unstable, and at least some planets moved on much different courses than they do today.

2. Erratic movements of the planets led to global catastrophe on Earth.

3. Through rigorous cross-cultural comparison of the ancient traditions, an investigator can reconstruct the celestial dramas.

One more principle must also be included, according to the authors. Velikovsky said that the key to reconciling his claims with scientific theory would be ELECTROMAGNETISM, a force in which astronomers and cosmologists had no interest in 1950. He stated that if the Sun and the planets are not the “electrically neutral” bodies astronomers assume, then even “the law of gravitation must come into question.”’
