- continued:
- Biologicals are continually multiplying their beautiful cellular, molecular, and atomic structurings, which constitute a comprehensive pattern of orderly energy concentration.
- This forms the Earth's chemical regenerative topsoils.
- The topsoils are progressively pressure burried, forming high energy concentrate fossil fuels.
- Energy impoundment in both the Earth's atmosphere and hydrosphere provides for weather and ocean currents.
- A planet capable of sustaining life did not come into being independently of the rest of the universe.
- Earth can be shown to be a focal point where varoius cosmic powers conjoin to fashion a living world.
- Certainly the earth is not the center of the universe, but this crowded earth is a focal point of the universe: one of those perhaps innumerable places in the cosmos where both life and consciousness could flourish. What a concentration of mighty forces upon one more or less tiny point!
- The earth is exposed to solar winds from one direction and cosmic radiation from the other; which check each other (as evidenced by the "Forbrush Effect") and so keep us from getting too much of either.
- The van Allen belts absorb excess radiation and release it in more sensible quantities.
- Earth is protected from an excess of both by its magnetic field, made possible by the moon.
- Comets swapping orbits effect a constant exchange of matter at the border regions of neighboring solar systems.
- The Milky Way contains matter which has continually filtered down to the surface of the earth.
- All space is filled with particles whose presence is only too apparent in the way in which they make all nebulas look like nebulas (hazy and foggy).
- In the 1950's these grains were believed to be particles of water ice, then later of graphite, then of a mixture. Astronomers concluded they had to consist largely of carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen, made up largely of organic material.
