Theological Cosmology
6/24/25
This essay was inspired by Plasma Cosmology theory, Electric Universe theory, and Edo Kaal’s Structured Atom Model. By adding theology to the mix, I realize I have gone out ahead of the current scientific understanding. I believe science will catch up with me one day, but I am willing to call it a work of imagination for now.
Our long tradition of separating church and state has led theology and science to become what Stephen Jay Gould called “non-overlapping magisteria.” That is unfortunate because I believe the escalating quandaries of scientific cosmology do not have a scientific explanation. Theologians, who have been parroting bad science for over a century, or have kept silent, need to step up and restore balance to the dialogue.
To get from God to me, everything has to become something. The light of everything has to become the energy of everything while still remaining the light of everything. Consequently, the light of everything becomes motion; motion becomes charge; charge becomes charge separation; charge separation becomes current and current becomes plasma.
We see filaments of Birkeland currents against the darkness of the night sky because we cannot see the light of everything. Birkeland currents pinch out quasars, which clone other quasars until there is a cluster of quasars. Clusters of quasars gather Birkeland currents from the energy of everything and form clusters of galaxies.
Filaments of Birkeland currents inside galaxies pinch out stars. With the help of the quasar, i.e. the galactic core, stars create heliospheres, which is where planets are born.
In the early days of a star, the galactic core delivers an overabundance of Birkeland current energy. Inside the star, atom size Birkeland currents pinch out trillions upon trillions of neutrons, which decay into protons and electrons. Like a hive of bees, trillions of protons and electrons form all the elements and isotopes of the periodic table into a gas giant planet.
Our sun ejected its gas giant to create a primordial solar system of sun and planet. I suspect the first gas giant had the richest assortment of elements and isotopes and was our Earth mother. Earth mother collected its trove of elements and isotopes into a rocky planet with an atmosphere and ejected it as a satellite.
With the help of the heliosphere, our Earth created a biosphere. The geological record suggests that Earth has been subjected to thirty-six or more cataclysmic encounters with other spheres in the solar system. These encounters suddenly and repeatedly changed the surface features and topography of all the rocky planets and moons including Earth. On Earth the DNA of all species suddenly and repeatedly changed simultaneously.
The biosphere creates creatures and eventually created us. All creatures, plant and animal, have a field of experience, which is an interaction of the biosphere and the sensory apparatus and processing capability of each species. Higher creatures have things and thoughts as part of their field of experience.
