So i've been studying about Pole Shifts.It is likley a Pole shift caused the city of Atlanis to go under OR the great flood.I seen one map were the speculate that California is eveanly under water.Parts of Texas is a big river and Europe is split up into 3 big islands.Mexico is split from America.The Middle East is still conected to Africa but it has it's own shores.
Yeah a polar shift would shake this sno-globe up a bit wouldn't it. Could be a good thing that might help bring all the people of the world together. Actually it would probably push us farther apart (man we suck). Could be cool to see what would happen, but i live in Oregon so I'll probably wind up underwater.
Damn.
I could show scientifically, academically, the “lost” continent of Atlantis is a myth and could have never existed, the “great flood” was a creation myth and is impossible to have ever happened, the notion California (or any other large land mass) will someday “fall into the ocean” from earthquakes or polar shifts is a misconception. The whole notion of the possibility of “sunken” continents was discredited about one hundred years ago with the development of scientific knowledge of plate tectonics and continental drift; no good scientist takes it seriously.
But... we’re stoners, so I’ll let you guys off the hook for now. ;) :rasta:
Beyond Jupiter lies the Kuiper belt, some people believe that planet-X/Nibiru caused the great flood as describe in th bible. this large planet would cause pole shifts (flooding of the earth) as well as it's satellites impacting he surface of our planet.

at one time, the 7 continents were joined at the hip so to speak, the earth was once a Pangaea, not several continents.
HOWEVER, the most compelling sources of a flood would be either the ice age melting the previous ice caps, or a TREMENDOUS amount of fauna being destroyed, transposing all the required water into the atmosphere... it would rain for a month!
HOWEVER, i have only ever encountered one such example of creation, and that was in the destruction of the world tree, a giant tree that stood in the center of the Pangaea, destroyed by the greed of human kind and their lust for control over the elements of nature; destroying the tree of life not only destroyed the binding force of the Pangaea, but also transposed quadrillions of gallons of water.
before you can say it was ice caps, consider all that excess water... if it were the ice caps, eventually the ice that melted duringthe ice age and flooded the earth would have to eventually freeze again at the new polar caps, and eventually we would see more dry land again, but seeing as how this is not the case, could it be that the ice age was the cause of the continental drifting?
Oh yeah, also, Atlantis is Antarctica, and used to reside at the top of the Pangaea-(or so i assume, i cant, for the life of me, figure out where antarctica came from or where it was during the Pangaea era, but bear with me...)-so when the continents split, it flew down between the gap formed between Africa and South America....
ok so i dont know about all that, but IF there ever WAS an Atlantis, it's at the south pole right now.
Flood myths are probably best understood in the context of rapidly rising sea levels at the end of the last ice age. Both the black sea and persian gulf would have been dry land at the time, but below sea level. when the rising sea overtopped the land seperating them from the ocean, you had something like what happened in new orleons on a unimaginable scale.

yes I heard that there could be a pole shift beginning as we speak, that the polarity in the South Atlantic is already flopping and I don't know how long it takes to overcome the globe, probably hundreds of years, but I think it has begun according to some show I saw on the History or National Geographic Channel (I hate the NatGeo abbeviation, annoys the hell out of me).
There's a doomsday prophesy that relates to this...Dec 21st 2012 I think...supposedly around the time the poles will shift or something.
That is kinda interesting and trippy at the same time. Wonder how we would handle a pole shift.

Pole Shift
A shit load of Armageddon sites pop up when you type "pole shift 2012".Quote:
Recent work by scientists and geologists Adam Maloof of Princeton University and Galen Halverson of Paul Sabatier University in Toulouse, France, indicates that Earth indeed rebalanced itself around 800 million years ago during the Precambrian time period.[8] They tested this idea by studying magnetic minerals in sedimentary rocks in a Norwegian archipelago. Using these minerals, Maloof and Halverson found that the north pole shifted more than 50 degrees ?? about the current distance between Alaska and the equator ?? in less than 20 million years. This reasoning is supported by a record of changes in sea level and ocean chemistry in the Norwegian sediments that could be explained by true polar wander, the team reports in the September??October 2006 issue of the Geological Society of America Bulletin.[9]
Research using GPS, conducted by Geoffrey Blewitt of the University of Nevada, has shown that normal seasonal changes in the distribution of ice and water cause minor movements of the poles.
