So I have been thinking and reading more about Geryl. Lets suppose he has stumbled onto some solar cycle thing that is accurate. What I have been thinking and wondering is where he gets the claimed effects of it all, the specifics. The supposed "southern polarity" of the supposed solar flare, the claim that it will exactly hit the south pole. We realize that the solid inner core is to hot to produce a magnetic field, so that is what gives us the liquid outer core. So then you have to ask what the solar flare would grab onto, and not to mention the way it is described as "solar lightning" and is compared to a lightning strike hitting a magnet and reversing it's polarity. It has been said that lightning can't happen in a vacuum such as space, so it is not quite clear how that is supposed to happen, and even if it was possible that it instantly switched magnetic polarities how that would "flip the core" and in turn "flip the earth and cause it to rotate the other way". See, supposedly this information is gotten from the ancient texts saying that a catastrophe happened. Okay, that is all good, but how does he claim to get the supposed effects, all the supposed details from those texts? I am not saying that the Maya etc. weren't smart, because they were very smart, but how could they know, A. The "polarity of a sun flare" B. Where that sun flare supposedly hit C. Anything about magnetic fields. It is a giving they were smart and observed astronomical thing, but all of that requires instrumentation. I guess that is where the whole claims they came from Atlantis comes in though. It is interesting after reading more into these things and realizing that mostly nothing of the claims come from him, it is literally a bunch of different thing from various authors pieced together into one. One of the main books "The Mayan Prophecies" I saw reviewed was found to be really flawed, and it seems that's where a big part of the claims come from. I know at least a few of ya'll have read Geoff Stray's review of his book "The Orion Prophecies" ( no coincidence in that name compared to the other I imagine ). It is shown in that review and other reviews I have seen that the whole thesis of that book is wrong. Of course the use of any astronomy program can show that from what I have read.
Now analyzing a couple parts of the claims.
Supposedly this happens every 11-12,000 years like clock work, and that includes the claim that the magnetic field reverses, yet from what I have read there is hard evidence that the last reversal was aprox. 780,000 years ago. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geomagnetic_reversal
Another part is the whole claim of Atlantis being destroyed in the last supposed catastrophe and the claim that it is now under Antarctica. From what I have read in numerous places, there are ice core samples that date all the way back to at least around a million years ago, meaning it has been there and been frozen for a lot longer than 11,000 years. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,182765,00.html
Furthermore from what I have read, according to him sun activity is supposed to be pretty much zilch at the moment. I have been looking at space weather recently though and just in the past week the sun has been very active with one sun spot spitting off major flares and now another one that is evidently a huge sun spot throwing off C-class flares that are expected to hit the Earth. Obviously this doesn't fit in with the claims.
I'm sure there is more that I wanted to say, but I can't think of it at the moment, lol. When I think of more things I'll add it, but I just wanted to type things that I have been researching and thinking about recently.
