God's Nuclear Touch
Part 2
This part includes: Chapter 2 - Better Safe Than Sorry,
Chapter 3 - Let Me Bathe in Your Glory, and a Review of Part 1
In Part 1, Chaper One: "Mysterious Rays of Light", the following topics were discussed:
·
Rays of light emanating from the face of
Moses after encounters with God
·
A famous Biblical passage that contains the three
cardinal rules of modern radiation protection: distance, shielding, and time
·
Gamma sterilization of food – now and
perhaps back then as well
·
Jews are more susceptible to the damaging
effects of radiation more than non-Jews – the first attempt to explain why this is the case
·
A proposed physiological link between strict moral code of conduct and the ability to survive and thrive
in a highly-radioactive Fukushima-like environment. Further Part 1 descriptions delved into
o
rest on the Sabbath
o
the need for Kosher dietary laws
o
atonement rituals (to purge guilt and sin)
o
physical
requirements necessitating gender bias, etc.
·
A proposed physiological link is described between immoral conduct and disease. Biblical example: gossip leads to the
symptoms mistaken as leprosy, Hansen’s
Disease, which was likely radiation burns
·
Vulnerability vs. resistance to damage
from radiation
·
Benefits of radiation, including health and
longevity
·
Negative effects of radiation – i.e. strontium
90 kills in The Ukraine at Chernobyl
Most importantly, Section 1 started a journey, admittedly loosely-define and
less-than-scientific, but nevertheless filled with promise and uncertainty. For
readers who need to digest information mostly through strict analytical
procedures, I admit I have very little for them in this treatise I know and appreciate the “scientific
method – n. (defined as) The principles and empirical
processes of discovery and demonstration considered characteristic of or
necessary for scientific investigation, generally involving the observation of
phenomena, the formulation of a hypothesis concerning the phenomena,
experimentation to demonstrate the truth or falseness of the hypothesis, and a
conclusion that validates or modifies the hypothesis.” (American Heritage
Dictionary) I pray that those principals will one day be applied to this scenario. But, in the meantime, I do have an
inspirational thought:
Any time you encounter
or read about something that is considered to be holy or sanctified, in
addition to understanding that it is “exalted or worthy of praise”
(Dictionary.com), picture it as also being somewhat irradiated. Perhaps this physical characteristic adds to reasons
that these objects were handled with care, and deeply respected. It is also why these objects should be checked for radioactivity.
CHAPTER TWO
Better
Safe than Sorry
A powerful example of Divine radioactivity is found
in the descriptions of the original, holy Tablets of the Law described in
Exodus:
"Moses turned, and went down from the mountain with
the two tablets of the Law in his hand. The tablets were written on both their sides. Engraved on the one side and on the other. And the tablets were the work of God, and the
writing was the writing of God, engraved there upon the tablets.” The God's Nuclear Touch scenario assumes that
anything in God’s proximity is holy, sanctified, and highly radioactive, and likely
worthwhile to investigate. Regarding these
first set of tablets, the passage continues:
“When
Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said to Moses, ‘There
is a sound like war in the camp.’ And he
said, ‘It is not the voice of those who shout for victory, nor is it the voice
of those who cry in defeat, but I only hear the sound of those who sing.
And it
came to pass, as soon as he came near to the camp, that he saw the calf, and
the dancing. Moses’ anger raged and he
threw the tablets from his hands, breaking them at the base of the mountain. He
then took the calf, which they had made and burned it in the fire, ground it to
powder and scattered it upon the water.
He then made the people of Israel drink of it.” (Exodus 32:15–20)
The broken tablets were eventually placed
in the Ark of the Covenant, along with the replacement tablets. This container is described as a gold-covered
wooden case with two solid gold cherubs (winged angel-like members of the
heavenly host) sculpted on the cover. The Ark was eventually enshrined in the
Tabernacle, the portable temple housing them and other artifacts that were in
the inner chamber, called the Holy of Holies, at the far west side of the
enclosure, and later in the Holy Temple built by King Solomon in Jerusalem.
The Tablets and broken pieces were
placed far away from daily business, behind an interlocking series of woven,
multi-layered screens. The insolation and isolation of these highly energized tablets,
far away from the community and shielding them from unauthorized contact, is a
technique similar to those employed by nuclear physicists and engineers, architecting
and positioning a modern nuclear reactor’s core in relation to the rest of the
power plant or submarine.
The Old Testament Priests, who conducted the public rituals
inside the sanctuary and outside the Tabernacle, could have been exposed to
harmful ionizing radiation from the Presence of God, the Ark of the Covenant,
and other holy artifacts. They therefore
required extensive shielding in order to survive these Divine encounters.
In addition to the structural shielding, the Bible describes
many layers of priestly clothing, including elaborate head and breastplates of
metal, complex body wrappings of cloth and strategically placed precious
stones. They also had arcane
manufactured objects including bells and pomegranates, arrayed on these
vestments.
It has been estimated
by Biblical scholars that the eight mandated ritual garments weighed 70 pounds.
Illustration:
The Eight Layered Protective
Garments of the Israelite Priests
In order to survive
their Divine encounters,
Israelite Priests wore
insulated clothing and metal plates as shielding.
A detailed description
about the making of these garments is found at: http://www.enduringword.com/commentaries/0239.htm. Also see:
http://www.bible-history.com/tabernacle/TAB4The_Priestly_Garments.htm
Why would anyone wear so many fabric and metal garments in
a stifling desert unless they needed it to protect themselves from something
like ionizing radiation? Note that even with all this shielding, the high priests of Israel wore ropes tied aroung their waists, in case they died
in the inner chamber. It was the only efficient way to extract their bodies when
they unsuccessfully tried to atone for their sins and the sins of Israel on Yom Kippur - the Day of (and for) Atonement.
Garments of Modern Workers Exposed to Radiation
Only
the priests' faces were unprotected.
This may account for the priestly habit of "falling on their faces"
whenever they felt God's presence nearby.
Perhaps
it also explains why the priests heads were protected
with an herbal formula called anointing oil as demonstrated in Exodus 29:4-9:
“Aaron and his sons shall
be brought to the door of the Tent of Meeting, and (you) shall wash them with
water. You shall then dress them in the garments, and put on Aaron the coat, and the robe of the ephod, and the ephod, and the breastplate, and gird him with the finely done girdle of the ephod. You shall put the turban on his head, and put the sacred plate below the turban.
Then take the anointing oil, and pour it upon his head, and anoint him."
Just as sun-block filters ultraviolet
rays, nuclear medicine physicians and technicians know that certain ingredients found in
substances as common as eye-shadow, can attenuate, or block the rays from
diagnostic nuclear drugs administered to patients.
Anointing oil must have had similar
ingredients and/or heavy metallic impurities like lead, extracted from clay
pots during cooking, that protected the heads and faces of the priests in a
similar way. The entire formula and
preparation procedure appear in Exodus 30:22.
Lead poisoning from clay pots was common in ancient Roman times. Lead is a commonly used and highly effective
radiation shield. Only gold and
platinum insulate better and, as stated earlier, gold was the main insulating
material utilized for Biblical shielding requirements.
There
was another commandment that, in addition to having spiritual and social value,
was designed to protect the priests (and other Israelites) from excessive
exposure to radiation.
We know that the local population was
exposed to Strontium 90 during the meltdown of the
Chernobyl reactors in the Ukraine. Years
later, it still pervades the air, water, milk and food of that region. Strontium 90 is extremely dangerous if it
enters the body through inhalation, ingestion or weak or broken skin. It is not lethal as long as it stays outside
the body.
So it may be the basis for a
well-known prohibition: Biblical priests, Israelites and even their livestock
were not permitted near the Tabernacle if they had a defect: any blemish or
eruption on their skin. (See Leviticus 21:16,17).
Throughout the 1,000 year period when God is said to have
dwelled on the Earth, once a year, on Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, the reigning
Israeli High Priest, called the Kohen Gadol, went behind the curtains and into the Holy of Holies
to gain atonement for Israel. Despite
all of the above shielding and numerous other precautions, a rope was tied to
the Priest’s waist, to pull his body out, should he die during the ritual. These
rituals suggest dangerous levels of energy, which are reminiscent of nuclear
radiation, and strict codes of conduct, along with religious rituals were
employed in an attempt to mitigate the risk the Priests faced on a daily basis.
The Tabernacle was never disassembled for transport until God's Presence in the fiery
Cloud had lifted, allowing some time for
the dangerous Divine energy fields to dissipate. A select family group in the Levite clan named the Kehothites had the responsibility to carry the holy
artifacts. They were however forbidden to
disassemble and reassemble the Tabernacle..."so that they do not become
extinct" (See Numbers 29:1-20).
Only the preconditioned Israelite Priests were resilient enough to
handle that task. Rashi is considered by many to have been the most important commentator on the Bible and Talmud. He lived in
Medieval France and died in 1105 AD. Rashi wrote about things in the Torah that troubled him, and he comments about a passage in Genesis, and
includes the physical observation that -- of the Israelite tribes descended
from certain of the sons born to Jacob, only Levi was reduced in numbers. Nine hundred years ago, Rashi stated that proper precautions in handling the holy
artifacts were not always followed, turning the fearful admonition relating to
the "extinction" of the priests, into a nightmarish reality. Rashi’s commentary states that many members of the clan
with the priestly chores were thereby “depleted by
the Illustration: The Tabernacle and
Enclosure The Ark was kept inside the Tent of
Meeting, which was surrounded by the Tabernacle and its Enclosure, to protect
the Israelites whenever they set up camp. See: http://www.ebibleteacher.com/imagehtml/passion.html
Danger to the Neighboring and Indigenous Populations
The Text also describes violent and often lethal outbursts
of fantastic
power from the Tabernacle,
one of which killed 14,700 people at one time.
Numbers 17 relates that after putting down the rebellion against Moses
and Aaron by the followers of a man named Korach: "The
next day the entire Israelite community began to complain to Moses. 'You have killed God's people!' they
exclaimed.
The people were
demonstrating against Moses and Aaron, when they turned toward the Communion
Tent. It was suddenly covered with the
cloud, and God's glory appeared. Moses
and Aaron went to the front of the Communion Tent.
God spoke to Moses,
saying, 'stand clear of this community and I will destroy them in an instant.'
(Moses
and Aaron) threw themselves on their faces.
Moses then said to Aaron, 'take the fire pan and place on it some fire
from the altar. Offer incense and go
quickly to the community and make atonement for them. Divine wrath is coming forth from God. The plague has already begun!'
Aaron took (the pan) as
Moses had told him, and he ran to the middle of the assembled masses, where the
plague had already begun to kill people.
He offered the incense to atone for the people. He stood between the dead and the living and
the plague was checked.
The number of people who
died in the plague was 14,700. These
were in addition to the ones who died because of Korach's Rebellion."
To help protect the local
population from this type of occasional devastating release of energy, albeit a
form of Divine retribution in most of the cases, additional safety precautions were
necessary that contain the three cardinal rules of radiation protection:
1)
Maintaining safe stationary and following distances
2)
Rigidly enforcing procedures for approaching the Tabernacle that often
housed the Divine Presence who came and went in a sparking cloud by day, and a
pillar of fire by night for over a one
thousand year period
3)
Washing the body before and after approaching the danger zone
4)
Avoiding contact with impurities and leaving the camp area for varying
periods, based on the type of contamination
5)
Burning appeasing offerings of food animals, grains, and drinks
6)
Burning incense so that “you will live and not die.”
7)
Rigidly enforcing moral conduct – not just the 10 commandments but all
613 of them
8)
Discouraging evil behavior (believed to be contagious or infectious) by
giving lashes of the whip and threatening capital punishment.
9)
Encouraging gratitude for the miraculous rescue from Egypt and
discouraging complaints that were sometimes lethal:
"But
the people grew impatient on the way; they spoke against God and against Moses,
and said, 'Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the desert? There
is no bread! There is no water! And we detest this miserable food!'” (Numbers 21:4-5)
Communal complaints about God,
Moses, heavenly manna which they called miserable food, lack of water, etc.
precipitated this plague. Instead of
trusting in God’s promise for a secure future, they mistrusted and screamed
words of betrayal: “We’re going to die in this desert.” God then sent poisonous snakes that bit them
and many thousands of people perished for these actions that are considered
quit normal today. By stopping the ever-present radiation source that protected
the Israelites from all wild animals, reptiles (likely common to the region)
invaded and killed inside the camp. When Moses begged God on behalf of the
hastily repentant sinners, “… the LORD said to Moses, “Make a fiery serpent, and set it on a standard; and it shall come about, that
everyone who is bitten, when he looks at it, he will live.” And Moses made a bronze serpent and set it on the
standard; and it came about, that if a serpent bit any man, when he looked to
the bronze serpent, he lived. (Numbers 21:8-9)
The deleterious (harmful, damaging) effects of radiation
on the chemistry of living beings include; 1) damage to all parts of the body,
including organs, bone, glands and individual cells; 2) formation of cancerous
tumors; and (according to some)
3) the aging process itself. Derived
from the interaction between ionizing radiation and the abundant amounts of water in the human body, forming free
radicals, which are highly toxic chemicals currently held responsible for us
getting sicker, older and weaker.
Free radicals may have formed in
Biblical bodies exposed to higher-than-normal, or even excessive amounts of
radiation. This might explain why all
Israelites over the age of nineteen, who knew the hardships of slavery, died in
the forty year period after the
Exodus. Except for Joshua and Caleb, who
did not rebel against God in the incident of the spies, no one survived,
including many thousands of 20 to 24 year olds that did not get to see their
65th birthdays.
The text mentions their miraculous cause
of death as the hand of God applied against the guilty from inside the
camp. God's Nuclear Touch interprets the following passage to answer the
mystery about these massive numbers of people that lived shortened lives
without cataclysm or fatal illness. “The days we traveled from Kadesh-barnea until the we crossed Zered
Brook were thirty-eight years until the demise of the entire generation, the
men of war, from the middle of the camp, as God had swore
to them. The Hand of God was upon them
and confounded them from inside the camp, until their end.”
There was indeed some mysterious force at work, which may
have selectively sickened and/or accelerated the aging process of this
generation of slaves – the “the men of
war.”
Perhaps Divine encounters in,
or near the Holy of Holies radiation, produced the free radicals that did the
deed and punished the older members of the community in a more gradual manner.
Dr. Keith Baverstock, perhaps the
leading expert on the effects of radiation exposure on Ukrainian populations, discusses
the subject of detection of cancers and the long-term effects of exposure as discovered
at Chernobyl: “Following exposure to
radiation a "latent" period elapses before cancer appears at a
clinically detectable stage. This latent period may be as short as 2 years, as
is the case for leukemia, 4 years for childhood thyroid cancer and between 10
and 20 years for some solid cancers in adults. When exposure is prolonged, as
was the case for much of the exposure after
Also note that the adult citizens
of the Exodus were hardened by the grip of slavery and were therefore less
innocent and more opinionated. The Nuclear
Touchpoints suggests a psychological / physiological
connection, when higher than normal amounts of radiation are present. The older generation possessed cynical
viewpoints and harsh attitudes that were formed in punitive captivity and
during the wars they fought in the desert.
This may have been the reason they were selectively confounded
(neurologically impaired), became sick, and died in the face of high levels of
ionizing radiation. An assumption in
this proposition is that a softer, more casual outlook means a healthier body
in general, and would not have been affected like a bitter hard personality
whose body becomes cancerous and otherwise diseased. An analogy is the willow that can bend in the
wind, as opposed to more rigid trees that will break. Perhaps high speed particles more readily
kill via the formation of toxic chemicals, in bodies that have minds and hearts
that are rigid in their judgments.
After listing many types of
forbidden sexual behavior, God emphatically declares a new concept in
punishment for misbehaving: the Holy Land itself will vomit up or expel its
inhabitants:
Do
not let yourselves be defiled by any of these acts. It was a result of them that the nations which
I am driving away before you became defiled, And the
land was defiled, therefore I did visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the
land vomited out her inhabitants.
You
must keep My statutes and Mine ordinances, and not do
any of these disgusting perversions -neither the native-born, nor the stranger
that settles among you.
For all these abominations have the
men of the land done, that were before you, and the land is defiled. But (you shall not cause) the land to vomit
you out also, when you defile it, as it vomited out the nation that was before
you. (Leviticus18:24-28)
This concept about the Holy Land itself
participating in the act of expelling its inhabitants is a bit more plausible
in light of the definition of holy herein, which includes the concept of being somewhat
irradiated. If this were the case,
indigenous populations would have to tolerate elevated levels of ionizing
energy, and adjust their lifestyles accoringly, or suffer the effects of radiation poisoning.
There is a modern equivalent of a
radioactive location expelling its occupants: radon gas prevents us from
inhabiting certain homes. If we did not
understand that effect, we might also say that certain houses force their
owners to leave or else they get deathly ill.
But the question remains: Is the
ability to tolerate higher than normal amounts of ambient radiation linked to
the restrained behavior and rituals taught by our religions? Many parts of this
scenario are dedicated to answering this query.
In summary, many commandments in
the Biblical text admonish priests and Israelites alike, to observe the
specified laws and rituals: “so that you will live and not die." According
to the God's Nuclear Touch scenario, God's presence emitted a form of
radioactivity with properties similar to what we observe today. If true: these survival methods made
practical sense 3,300 years ago, and are valuable for us today by providing
information about how to better:
·
become more resistant to the effects of radiation,
·
battle cancer,
·
prevent heart disease,
·
treat artery disease, etc.
If false, and there was no ionizing
radiation to cope with, how can we otherwise explain such elaborate precautions
and desperate remedies?
The physical devastations detailed in
the first five books of the Bible that can largely be attributed to unheeded
warnings, lead to the conclusion that when it comes to approaching God's
radiance, it is… "Better
Safe than Sorry."
CHAPTER THREE
Let
Me Bathe in Your Glory
Beneficial uses of radiation therapy eradicate many types
of cancer and aid the healing of broken bones and torn tissue.
The Biblical text indicates that radiation may have other miraculous, yet
undiscovered health enhancing properties.
This chapter examines several astonishingly positive effects of God's radiance, as it is
described in the Old Testament.
Community
Well-being
Exodus relates the story of the emigration of a vast number
of what is called the “mixed multitude.”
Estimates range between 50 thousand and 2 million people, including
mostly the Israelite refugees, who were crossing the Sinai desert without adequate
food, water, shelter, or medical care.
Although they complained, sometimes bitterly, they mysteriously did not
get sick! Tragically, a few thousand
refugees crossing international borders in today's world typically fall ill or
die from the effects of heat, cold, insects, disease, thirst, starvation, and
unsanitary conditions. Why were the
Israelites unaffected by the common fate that befalls modern refugees? Evidently, beneficial health promoting forces
were at work during their 40 years of wandering, about which we can humbly speculate.
Food
Contamination and Gamma Sterilization
One answer may reside in the physics that
may be behind a ritual known as the “Wave Offering," previously discussed
in the introduction to Nuclear Touchoints, where a Ram's breast, and other food allocated for
human consumption, were waved before the Ark by thoroughly shielded Israelite Priests.
If God's Presence there represented a
nearby source of nuclear radiation, then the prescribed waving motions would
have destroyed all bacteria in the meat and grain, effectively preserving the
food for later consumption despite the desert heat.
In the present day, gamma irradiation
is widely used to sterilize and preserve most frozen shrimp, spices and many
agricultural products consumed in the
Note that food preservation
necessitates a very high dose, and penetrating exposures, such as cobalt 60
irradiation. Therefore waving may not
seem likely to preserve food. On the other hand, low dose short exposures are quite
effective for eliminating vermin and insects from food supplies. Thus claims of
food preservation are less may be less likely than insect elimination. Experts
may suggest a duration, distance and intensity of radiation at source to make a
more convincing argument.
Australian cat sickness incident reported in May 2008: “In
recent weeks, Champion Petfoods has conducted extensive testing on ORIJEN Cat sold in Australia. From a combination of
laboratory test results, scientific papers from reputable journals, and
consultation from various nutritional experts and veterinarians around the
world, we have discovered 2 primary factors:
1)
VITAMIN A DEPLETION IN IRRADIATED FOODS
Our
tests show that irradiation of ORIJEN Cat at 50kGY
causes a depletion of vitamin A of up to 77%. The irradiation levels applied to
ORIJEN in Australia exceeded this amount…
An excerpt from the American College of Veterinary Pathologists’ study supports
this finding: “… The irradiated diet was consumed to the same extent as the
non-irradiated diet, and affected animals did not lose weight until the
developing ataxia. (Note: This term is a neurological sign and symptom that
consists of gross lack of coordination, which hindered their access to food).
The report describes an investigation of 8 cases where the disease is
associated with the long-term feeding of cats on a gamma-irradiated dry food
diet. This study summary is available on the internet from the link: www.vetpathology.org/cgi/content/full/44/6/912
2) THE FORMATION AND RELEASE OF FREE RADICALS IN IRRADIATED FOODS
A second major impact of irradiation is the
formation and release of free radicals. Irradiation does not affect all
foods equally. ORIJEN is a nutritionally dense food
with much higher levels of long-chain fatty acids (DHA, EPA) than conventional
pet foods. These fatty acids are susceptible to oxidation following
irradiation. Bi-products from fatty acid oxidation, mainly free radicals,
are released into the body with the potential to cause tissue damage. Combined
with the loss of antioxidant vitamins (see Vitamin A described above), free
radicals are thought to be a major contributing factor.
When irradiation is applied to food,
the molecular structure of long chain fatty acids (DHA, EPA) is altered.
This causes the formation of free radicals that are then released into the
body.
An
excerpt from the American College of Veterinary Pathologists’ study supports
this position: “Irradiation is known to reduce the vitamin content of food, the
effect of which may be indirect, in that inadequate amounts of these compounds
may be available to counteract the effects of free radicals generated by normal
cell metabolism…””
(See: http://www.bowhouse.com.au/p/670657/orijen-cat-food-withdrawn-from-australia.html)
Disease Prevention
This waving ritual procedure
was also employed in the ceremony to inaugurate the priests where Moses and
Aaron actually waved the priests themselves (Numbers 8:11-15) before the Holy
of Holies (the inner chamber of the Tabernacle where the Ark was housed) in
order to “purify them.” Perhaps the
ambient radiation purified the general population in the vicinity as well.
Nuclear isotope
therapies achieve similar malady-purging results, and are an ongoing priority
of radiological research. It may be
useful for the biological sciences not to dismiss, but rather revisit physiological
details given throughout the Bible, in light of the possible influence of
radiation on the symptoms, diagnosis, and treatments described therein.
Science and technology advance
our understanding of history when relevant new techniques are found to be
useful to analyze ancient sites and objects. The recent use of DNA testing for the
determination of King Tutankhamen’s royal family lineage is a remarkable
example of this. Likewise, if archeologists would try to use advanced forms of
Geiger counters and other radioactivity detectors, like portal detectors now
being used at airports and shipping terminals (advanced spectroscopic portal [ASP]
radiation detection monitors) and like GeMini, a
device now used aboard NASA's Messenger satellite, they might find the places
of the Exodus and later period sites. Then, researchers, including biologists, paleo-pathologists,
geneticists, and others might better understand the influences on the health of
our ancient ancestors, which may also pertain to our everyday lives.
Note that the
radioactive waste we produce while generating electricity must be well-managed,
as it can have dangerous levels of energy for thousands, or even hundreds of
thousands of years. The Bible describes what
could be similar materials, which this scenario predicts could still be
producing detectible traces from hot spots that could help us rediscover the
actual locations of Biblical sites,
Diet
Another possible answer to the mystery of Israelite health,
at the time of the Exodus from Egypt, involves diet. The Israelites probably ate small amounts of
radiation absorbed by something in their food, which may have augmented their
health, as opposed to the diminished state of well-being described in the
Australian pet food incident above.
Ingesting radioactively hot food might alternatively provide an
antibiotic and even a relatively germ free condition (called gnotobiotic) which
may explain this mysteriously healthy state and the communal well-being of the refugees.
For a modern comparison, current radiation biology
literature indicates that small doses of radiation given to experimental rats
over prolonged periods of time, actually increased
their life span.
On the negative side of the diet issue, the above cited
Australian incident in felines may explain the need for, and value in eating kosher meats and chicken:
“Irradiation does not affect all foods equally. ORIJEN
is a nutritionally dense food with much higher levels of long-chain fatty acids
(DHA, EPA) than conventional pet foods. These fatty acids are susceptible
to oxidation following irradiation. Bi-products from fatty acid
oxidation, mainly free radicals, are released into the body with the potential
to cause tissue damage.”
The major difference between kosher meats and non-kosher meats is the Bibles prohibition
to not eat or drink blood: Leviticus 17:10-14: View commentary related to this
passage - “If any Israelites
or any foreigners living in the community eat meat with blood still in it, the
Lord will turn against them and no longer consider them his people. The life of
every living thing is in the blood, and that is why the Lord has commanded that
all blood be poured out on the altar to take away the people's sins. Blood,
which is life, takes away sins. That is why the Lord has told the people of
Israel that neither they nor any foreigner living among them shall eat any meat
with blood still in it. If any
Israelites or any foreigners living in the community catch an animal or a bird
which is ritually clean, they must pour its blood out on the ground and cover
it with dirt. The life of every living thing is in the blood, and that is why
the Lord has told the people of Israel that they shall not eat any meat with
blood still in it and that anyone who does so will no longer be considered one
of his people.” And later: Deuteronomy
12:23: Only do not eat meat with
blood still in it, for the life is in the blood, and you must not eat the life
with the meat. These Biblical passages speak of the life force and other
spiritual issues as being the reason for not eating or drinking blood. But, in addition, we now see that the
Australian cats affected by radiation in their food, were impaired or died from
only one brand of pet food, said to contain a higher level of long-chain fatty
acids. This is ironic because an
abundance of evidence suggests that long-chain fatty acids DHA and EPA are
present in Omega-3, which many of us take in fish oil supplements, and are
known to prevent heart disease. Perhaps
this effect is reversed when radiation levels are elevated. If the amount of ingested fat content in the irradiated
food was the difference between life or death,
attributed to a high concentration of free radicals, then it is reasonable to
assume that eating blood is a bad idea.
In the stomach, and perhaps in the circulatory system after digestion,
blood contains varying levels of cholesterol, and triglycerides, which make up
the majority of fat cells in the body. So ingested fat in the blood might do the same thing to humans. As if to corroborate the above, another Old Testament
dietary law forbids Israelites to consume animal fat: “"Give the following
instructions to the people of Israel. You must never eat fat, whether from
cattle, sheep, or goats.” (Leviticus
7:23). Never? Yes never!... at least
when God is physically present, or other sources of ionizing radiation are in
close proximity, such as work-related exposures, frequent air travels,
therapeutic nuclear treatments, etc. A pattern emerges that supports the Nuclear
Touch thesis statement, whereby an individual of any gender, race, or
religion, who resides in a highly radioactive environment, should not ingest
fat, without running the risk of experiencing the fate of the Australian cats
described herein. In conclusion, if an individual is a) exposed to radiation
(like the Biblical foreigner in the community mentioned above), or b) more
susceptible to damage from it (as Jewish people are), a recommendation is for
he/she to be a vegetarian, or eat only kosher meat or chicken to be somewhat safer,
until this scenario is tested in the laboratory. Mysterious Germ-Free Environment and Abnormal States of Good Health “You will then serve the
Lord your God, and He will bless your bread and your water. I will take sickness away from the midst of you. None shall miscarry, nor be childless in your
land. I will make you live out full lives.” (Exodus 23:25, 26) A section of the ancient Talmud (next to the Bible itself,
the most important codification of Jewish rituals and laws) testifies that the
above promises of health, wealth, children and long life actually
occurred. Pirke
Avot 5:5 gives an account of this mysterious
germ-free environment, reporting that: 1) No ceremonially offered
meat ever became putrid in the Holy Temple,
indicating no bacteria present. 2) The High Priest was never
sick on the highest Holy Day called Yom Kippur when he went into the inner sanctuary. 3) "No women
miscarried," this phenomenon was "a result of the fragrance of the offerings." 4) "No insects were ever
seen in this Holy slaughter house either." Constructed
in Jerusalem by King Solomon circa 1000 BC, this apparently germ-free home of
the Ark was called the First Temple, or the Bet HaMikdash in phonetic Hebrew. Windowless, thick-walled and a solid block
tower design, this stone structure was built like a modern nuclear facility --
a fortress that housed the Divine Presence, protected the Ark from desecration
and shielded visitors from the glow (radiation) from within. Fertility and Birth Control
Another health-related effect of the
Israelites’ Divine encounters, was a form of natural birth control, which could
be attributed to the nearby presence of radioactivity. Remarkable fertility earmarked the
Israelites entire stay in Then, according to three detailed censuses,
there was suddenly a zero population growth over 40 years in the wilderness
where it is said they were continually exposed to the Divine presence. Sterility
is a common misconception when it comes to radiation exposure. It occurs in nearly fatal doses only, and was
probably not at cause. Low and balanced Sinai birth rates were probably due to
Oligiospermia, the reduction of sperm by radiation, observed in males exposed
to moderate doses (250 rads). Body Heat Cold body parts and poor circulation
are often related. The presence of a
radiation source capable of heating internal parts of the human body might
reveal another piece in this mysterious health puzzle. We have no way of knowing if 36 degrees
Celsius or 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit was the Biblical body temperature in those
described to have experienced prolonged Divine encounters. 1) Infections are often fought by our body’s
use of "fever" to create a more hostile environment for invading
microbes. Elevated temperatures radiated
to those near the Tabernacle (or later the First or 2) Heart
attacks were not described and evidently unknown. Perhaps one of the many possible factors at
cause was that fat, cholesterol, calcium, and other substances build-up inside
blood vessels (called plaque) had a harder time sticking to the walls of veins
and arteries warmed by nearby radiation.
Cooked soups and gravies coagulate into separate layers of fat and fluid
when cooled in a container. God's Nuclear Touch
suggests that plaque was less likely to cling (adsorb) onto vascular walls that
benefited from a Divine method of internal warming. If frequently raising the blood temperature
in Biblical bodies prevented the formation of plaque in the veins, moderns might
also benefit by means of everyday external heat sources including hot baths /
whirlpools (doctor permitting), laser therapy, ultra-violet, infrared,
ultrasound or other types of current and future appliances. 3) The FDA has
approved the use of far-infrared lights as a treatment that, when shined on the
skin, promotes pain relief and the internal healing of damaged tissue. Because of the nature of the wavelength (2-50
microns), this heat penetrates much more deeply than others, stimulating local
circulation, which brings oxygen and nutrients, and removes toxins. 4) The excimer laser, is a device that generates cool ultraviolet
(UV) light, that is being used in the treatment of arterial diseases. On the
tips of catheters inserted into diseased arteries, the light (308-nm wavelength)
can open blockages and restore blood flow. Note that Russian doctors in the early 1990’s, demonstrated a
low intensity semi-conductor laser device at international exhibitions that radiated
deep (4 inches) inside the body. Humorously
reviewed as a forerunner to the Star Trek apparatus envisioned in sci-fi
stories, the medical claims for this appliance included the treatment of many
maladies, such as the “morbidity of the heart and sexual organs.” Aiming a similar heat generating radiated
wave-form at the resonant frequency of calcium deposits in veins and arteries, this
external light device was claiming to selectively dissolve blockages with little or no incidental damage. Longevity God
told the 99 year old patriarch Abraham, "Walk
before me and become perfect" (Genesis 17:1). Is the Bible telling us that radiation might
also be the most practical way to improve our physiology, prevent disease and
slow the aging phenomenon in living tissue?
Abraham fathered a child and lived another 76 years after being exposed
to God's radiant bath, while other Biblical celebrities like Noah reportedly
lived over 900 years!Biblical life-spans are indeed
an intriguing mystery, as it is most difficult, based on modern observations,
to believe that 1000 years of life was nearly achieved. Few, even among the most faithful, truly
understand or testify to the accuracy of these accounts. The details describing their longevity are
graphically portrayed as follows: Father
to Son... Lifespans from Adam to Moses Reported
Years Note: One of the
most interesting observations about the above chart is that the lifespan of
individuals within this family seems to have shortened as the succession of the
generations marched forward. Rabbinical scholars
state that the ancient ancestors were "fresher" -- possessing a more
potent life-force or genes, having been closer to the beginning of life (for
Homo-Sapiens) and lived longer as a result. A suggestion came from Louis J. Kressel
(the author’s father in-law) OBM and has been added to the God's Nuclear Touch scenario: The chromosomes
of a species, passed down from generation to generation, may themselves age
(contain more and more abnormalities and mutations) and have a life-span of
their own” ... leaving us with Lou’s ideas about: 2) Progressively declining life-spans, until
recent medical advances, and 3) Mysteries about extinctions, like the
dinosaurs, who, after thousands of generations might have died
out according to a more natural free radical bombardment process, which aged their genes to death. Perhaps many other species died because their DNA deteriorated and then finally fell apart from
free radical bombardment due to excessive radiation. Dinosaur fossils and geological strata should
be checked for DNA-destroying periods of intense radiation. The aging phenomenon in humans is now
thought to be controlled or strongly affected by these free radicals. Aging is commonly known to be as inevitable
as taxes and death. Yet why we, and the
individual cells that make up our bodies,
age at all, is quite a mystery. So much
so, that science refers to this process as the "aging phenomenon," a
term usually reserved for unexplainable situations. In summary,
intriguing longevity experiments combine with high cancer cure rates, hi-frequency
laser and UV light treatments, and other beneficial therapies associated with
our current use and expanding knowledge of radiation, demonstrate the
possibility for us to once again bathe in (something like) God's Glory. Purification of organic
objects, including people, also occurred by simply waving them in front of the
Ark of the Covenant during Divine encounters. Two other unusual
preservation observations are described in the Biblical text. ·
Manna could not be kept overnight, as described in Exodus 16:19-21
because it spoiled and become worm-infested by morning. “And Moses said, ‘Let no man leave of it till
the morning.’ However they listened not to Moses. Some of them left of it until the morning,
and it bred worms, and stank. Moses was
angry with them, so they gathered it every morning, every man according to his
eating and when it was exposed to the sun, it melted.” Yet, mysteriously, extended preservation happened on every
Sabbath, and an urn-full of this Heaven-provided food was placed next to (or
actually put inside) the Ark, for all generations to see: “And the house of Israel called
its name Manna; and it was like coriander seed, white; and its taste was like
wafers made with honey. And Moses said,
This is what the Lord commands, Fill an omer of it to
be kept for your generations; that they may see the bread with which I have fed
you in the wilderness, when I brought you out from the land of Egypt. And Moses said to Aaron, Take a pot, and put
an omer full of manna in it, and lay it up before the
Lord, to be kept for your generations.
As the Lord commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony,
to be kept.” (Exodus 16:31-34). ·
In forty years of desert wanderings, the original clothes and shoes
worn by the Israelites during the Exodus from Egypt, were miraculously
preserved in their original condition. “And
I have led you forty years in the wilderness; your clothes are not worn old
upon you, and your shoe is not worn old upon your foot.” (Deuteronomy 29:4). God's Nuclear Touch suggests that
certain ancient conditions and rituals were forerunners to both modern and
future sterilization and preservation processes, like the wave offering was the
predecessor of food irradiation techniques, and respectfully suggests that
radiation exposure was the cause underlying incidents of Biblical preservation phenomena.
More study in this area is warranted. Conclusion Bible stories vividly depict both health-promoting conditions and
deadly outcomes, wherever and whenever God appears.
Modern experiences are a direct parallel, in that we create healthy conditions with nuclear medicines, and suffer deadly effects from higher amounts of exposure.
These somewhat identical reactions to encounters with two different manifestations, indicate varying levels of ionizing radiation are present in both. Collaboration requests are welcome.
