This cannot be verified experimentally. The sun is a medium sized star and is smaller than some stars and bigger than others and there is a LOT of objective evidence to support this, it is called astronomy.

Maddie Posted January 13, 2021 3 minutes ago, Lois said: why did you decide that astronomy is an objective science? Objective 1. (of a person or their judgment) not influenced by personal feelings or opinions in considering and representing facts. because it can be measured with instruments that will give one the same measurements regardless of who does the measuring. This is the definition of objective. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually if I found anything believable it was that Atlantians would have cropped pictures as this is what I think of when I consider what Aquaman does in his free time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nungali Posted January 14, 2021 (edited) I too have discovered the origin of Atlantean language ... also in a dream ( well, I think it was a dream ) . Translation : " HELP ! HELP !

Nungali Posted November 29, 2021 Before I make a suggestion on your 'what if ' ... can you please explain what you mean by it ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nungali Posted November 30, 2021 (edited) So its one of those 'milk and honey' things is it or more of a 'Mars & Marduk' thingamajig ? So my answer to your 'what if' ; If this if is , it changes nothing about Atlantis or Alchemy . If this if is not (that is, it is an isn't) , it changes nothing about Atlantis or Alchemy . ..... you're welcome . .

Michael Sternbach Posted November 30, 2021 On 29.11.2021 at 10:07 AM, Draco said: What if Atlantis is also an alchemical stage? Atlantis is generally described as a prehistoric utopia, a world that had reached an advanced level of spiritual, scientific and technological achievement. However, at some stage things went south... The Atlanteans had become too proud of their achievements and, according to Plato, the Gods decided to punish them for their hybris and imperialistic behaviour by submerging the isle in the ocean. I think this could be likened to the initial stage of the Great Work of Alchemy, the so-called Nigredo, in which your starting matter undergoes dissolution and destruction, as it is being reduced to its First Matter (prima materia). The whole subsequent process aims at restoring and elevating this First Matter to its final perfection (ultima materia), a state in which it will even be able to transmute base metals into gold, heal any disease in living beings, and extend their life span indefinitely. If again we wish to draw an analogy to the story of Atlantis, we could consider the fact that the knowledge of the Atlanteans was never truly lost, but disseminated - in bits and pieces - throughout various cultures. At the proper time, its reassembly could indeed lay the foundation for a new perfected world, a Golden Age, for which the Philosopher's Stone could serve as an analogy. Atlantis is as much in our future as it is in our past. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
