Pondera Eternus theory recognizes that the "Big Bang" was actually an expansion event which occured along an infinitely long strand referred to as the Alpha Strand. The event was due to the build up of energy along the Alpha Strand which became powerful enough to initiate the expansion event which has been referred to as the Big Bang. One of the most important characteristics of the Alpha Strand is that it connects all universes to infinity thus providing an infinite mechanism of communication and balance to all that exists.
John 10 14, 15, 16
“I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me, just as the Father knows me and I know the Father. And I lay down my life for the sheep. I have other sheep that do not belong to this fold. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice. So there will be one flock, one shepherd.”
Now- this is a truly remarkable statement by Jesus “I have other sheep that do not belong to this fold.” To what, or should I say to whom is Jesus referring when he speaks of sheep of another fold? Clearly Jesus includes them among his children when he said “I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice.”
Some believe, as does
As science presses onward and outward in its continuing effort to understand nature and the role we play in weaving this magnificent tapestry of human experience we call life, we are increasingly confronted with evidence that we may not be alone in this vast ever-expanding universe of ours. We all know and believe that, with God, all things are possible and that all life is created by and sustained by Almighty God. Considering the power of God and the nature of infinity, we should not place limits on the mysterious ways God does, indeed, perform His work.
Jim Bell, in a December, 2006 article published in “Scientific American”, discusses the most recent findings about Mars, our planetary next-door neighbor and her two small moons Deimos and Phobos. After decades of exploration, the expenditure of huge sums of money and the dedication of enormous reserves of human resources, scientists have arrived at some rather surprising conclusions, one of which is of particular relevancy to our discussion of the good shepherd. The consensus now is that, in the ancient history of Mars, there was a period of nearly one billion years during which conditions existed that would support life as we now know it, here, on earth. One billion years! As you very well know, a great deal can happen in one billion years. It was only about one-hundred years ago that the first airplane took flight. Today we are transmitting clear images of small rocks and bits of ice back to earth from the moons of Mars and Jupiter. A period of one billion years is more than sufficient time to allow for the development of hundreds of advanced civilizations on Mars, Earth or elsewhere. Images currently in the Spirit and Opportunity raw images section (sol 223, rear hazcam) may shock some people but this is cause for celebration, not concern.
Many of these civilizations would, no doubt, have succumbed to disease, natural disaster or the more common terminators of human existence, greed, hatred, bigotry and the lust for power. Consider, however, that the fold Jesus mentions in John, Chapter 10 still exists and has attained great heights of knowledge and wisdom. Imagine, if you will, that this fold, our brothers and sisters in Christ, have been engaged in a long journey of adventure, learning and growth in an exploration of the handiwork of God and will, some day, return to share their experience with us. As Jesus said “I must bring them also and they will listen to my voice. So there will be one flock, one shepherd.”
Many of you may be wondering what all of this has to do with you, here today, facing problems in your daily lives which seem beyond our capacity to change in any significant way. What difference does it make, you might be wondering, if the universe is filled with other life-forms, intelligent or not? What, if anything, does it say about our relationship with Jesus and the Holy Trinity? How can the existence of these “other sheep” have any impact on our lives today?
Consider for a moment that, over the centuries we have developed too narrow a view of the role of Jesus as Savior. Perhaps we have been too selfish in believing that we are the only civilization led by the good shepherd. Open your hearts to the possibility that there is another fold which we have not yet encountered and which, ultimately, must join with us so there will be one flock, one shepherd. It is quite possible that when Jesus says that “I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice.”, that the joining of these folds is a necessary condition for the fulfillment of prophecy and the promise of scripture.
Some may worry that the existence of other life-forms created by God and given an immortal soul somehow would diminish our relationship with Jesus and the Holy Trinity. In fact, this reality would affirm the truth that there is one God and would demonstrate that this truth knows no boundaries in space or time. This truth honors the power and glory of God and expands the scope of reality on which shines the Light of the Lamb.
I believe you would agree that we need all the help we can get in solving the problems faced by humanity. Not long ago Nobel Prize winning physicist, Dr. Stephen Hawking expressed the opinion that we have done such a poor job of caring for our planet that we will need to colonize other solar bodies in order to survive. Dr. Hawking is considered by many to be the most intelligent person living on our planet today so I am reluctant to argue that something needs to be done, and done soon, to heal the wounds we have inflicted upon ourselves and our planet.
Let me suggest that now is the time for us to awaken to the very real possibility that we have brothers and sisters in Christ, children of God who are of another fold and that the solution of some of our problems depends on the joining of our fold with theirs. It could very well be that the nature of the problems we now confront have evolved beyond our capacity to solve them. Perhaps we desperately need the help of all of the children of God to avoid spiraling into a pit of self destruction. Imagine what knowledge those of this other flock might share with us. Where might we journey following the union of our flocks? What doors might be opened?
The answer, I believe, can be found in the Book of Revelation 22: 1,2.

You may have noticed some of my friends by now. Most are quite shy and it is best not to approach them unless they speak to you first. Hopefully this will make an interesting story.
Hydrogen Fuel Formula
My friends really are quite remarkable and extremely intelligent. In addition to providing insights into the working of strings within the dark matter matrix they gave me a rather simple formula for extracting hydrogen atoms from water, thereby producing inexpensive, clean fuel which can be used to run internal combustion engines, fuel large generators for the production of electricity and any number of other things.
Most people are aware that sending an electrical current through water causes some of the hydrogen atoms to separate from the oxygen atoms in water. Unfortunately, this method uses more energy than it produces and is a net loss. My friends pointed out that, if the hydrogen and oxygen atoms are "excited" (basically they begin jiggling rapidly) prior to the introduction of the electric current they separate far more easily and efficiently. This can be achieved by sending specific sound waves through the water just before introducing the electric current. They strongly recommended using the songs of the humpback whale for this purpose and suggested that the electricity produced by the electric eel would provide a sufficient electrical charge to effect the separation of the atoms. Very clean, quite efficient and totally in harmony with nature. Other details with regard to the shape, material and construction of the water containment chamber were given and I will provide them soon. I have not had an opportunity to test this formula but my friends have proven to be highly dependable, trustworthy and reliable. You may have guessed by now that they are not from Kansas.
On or about May 21, 2005 I submitted a letter to the editors of Science News in which I outlined a theory by which Black Holes serve to pull in vast quantities of dark matter and baryonic matter (all visible matter in the universe) and, through the enormous pressures within the black hole, force a synthesis of the two, thereby creating new baryonic matter. This new baryonic matter is observed in spiral galaxies in the area of new star formation referred to as a "galactic bulge". A summary of this theory, which is part of a Grand Unified Theory which I have named "Pondera Eternus" was e-mailed to the American Academy of Sciences in February of 2006 but, due to complications which I will partially address later, this theory was not published until it appeared on this website. I also sent a brief summary of this theory to Michio Kaku and Stephen Hawking.
This theory of the role of black holes (renamed Genesis Chambers in Pondera Eternus Theory) functioning to create new baryonic matter from dark matter was postulated after considering the observations of Joe Silk, Oxford, Priyamvada Natarajan, MIT, Lisa Randall, Harvard and others that in all observable spiral galaxies there was an uncanny, consistent ratio of 500 to 1 between the mass of black holes and the mass of the galactic bulges seen in these galaxies. Galactic bulges, as mentioned, are known to be areas of new star formation in spiral galaxies and are present in virtually all observable spiral galaxies.
More recently I became aware of the fascinating relationship between dark matter and the so-called strings of string theory. This relationship reveals the structure of what can accurately be called a matrix of dark matter within which is contained a network of particles now referred to as strings. This matrix and the internal string network explains why dark matter, which does not seem to respond to gravity in the classical sense, responds to the intense gravitational fields produced by black holes. Before discussing this relationship in detail it is necessary to review, briefly, what observations tell us about dark matter. Even though some attempts have been made to distinguish between dark matter and dark energy, we all know that this distinction loses much of its meaning at the quantum level so I will use the term dark matter to identify that substance which, by most recent estimates, provides 96% of the mass in the observable universe.
Our universe is expanding and the rate of this expansion is accelerating. Recent observations strongly suggest that this rate of expansion is somehow driven by dark matter. The conversion of dark matter into new baryonic matter by black holes gives a partial answer as to how this is happening. Dark matter does not, in its raw form, interact with baryonic matter nor does it respond to gravity but, once converted into baryonic matter, increases the net gravitational force of matter in the universe, thereby forcing an acceleration of the expansion of observable baryonic matter. Currently we can observe and measure the increases and movement of baryonic matter but are not yet able to measure the corresponding decrease in dark matter, although some studies have observed, through gravitational lensing, the apparent "sweeping clear" of symmetrical areas of dark matter near black holes.
A fairly large body of evidence has accumulated which suggests that dark matter serves as a kind of "scaffolding" for the large-scale structure of the universe providing a framework within which everything we see can exist in a reasonably orderly manner. At this time it will be helpful to describe some characteristics of the dark matter matrix and the string network within that matrix.
It is helpful to recount comments made by Albert Einstein more that half a century ago when he was addressing the problems posed by hidden variables which resulted in quantum indeterminacies thereby making it more difficult to describe and predict the behavior of sub-atomic particles. Einstein commented that it was as if there were "invisible flies buzzing about everywhere in the universe, more or less at random, interacting with the elementary particles and affecting their behavior." Einstein, I believe, was accurately describing in general terms his sense of the dark matter matrix and the string network. His uncanny ability to understand and express the nature of reality decades before experimental physicists catch up to his conceptual knowledge never ceases to amaze me.
The dark matter matrix permeates the universe and, even now, we move within it. The matrix can be stretched and twisted but, except in the case of black hole matter conversion, maintains its integrity. Roughly hexagonal in shape, these incredibly small (the size will become more clear as we discuss the interior of one of these dark matter threads from which the matrix is woven) threads of matter encase five rings of vibrating strings. Strings, at this point, are in a closed loop form and, within the five rings of strings a circular chamber divided into four "pathways" exists. Through these pathways, which twist much like the segments which form a fibrous rope, four particles pass. On opposite pathways two photons traveling in opposite directions, one photon per pathway, spiral through the network. Separating the photon pathways is one in which one tau neutrino and one muon neutrino travel. The fourth pathway consists of an, as yet unidentified, substance which serves as a non-conducting buffer between the photons. The magnetic field produced by the movement of the particles serves to maintain the internal integrity of the tunnel within the circles of strings which do react to the electromagnetic force and are responsible, as we shall see, for bestowing upon dark matter its "gravitational identity". This ocurs in the case of black hole conversion and in the more subtle conversion of dark matter which takes place within the dark matter matrix/string network.
At some point a certain mass of dark matter drops down to initiate contact with a string in the outer string circle. The vibrating, closed loop string separates at a point along the loop, snaps open, forming an open loop which then attaches to the mass of dark matter. It does not enclose the dark matter mass as this will not be accomplished until the fifth string ring. It is helpful to view strings a being much like a portion of a strand of DNA and the dark matter mass as being an undifferentiated organic stem cell. Just as the DNA provides the "instructions" for the stem cell to become a specific type of cell, the string provide the information instructing the dark matter to become a specific, eventually, elementary particle. Strings, in effect, are natures ultimate alchemy set. After the initial string interaction the rings of strings (it is not yet clear how many strings exist in each ring) the second ring opens a slot (envision the tumblers on a lock lining up) and the dark matter mass drops into the second ring where another string flips open and attaches to the mass until, after passing through the fifth ring, it drops into the internal tunnel where, according to the instructions provided by the strings, it attaches to one of the particles, gains mass until it pops out of the "quantum flux" as new baryonic matter.
Possible Location of the "Holy Grail"
A few days ago some of my friends noticed that I was reading the book "The DaVinci Code" and suggested that the Holy Grail was located in the Tuscany region of Italy. More specifically, they suggested that the Grail was buried beneath the stone courtyard of a very old Franciscan monastery on Mt. Laverna in that region. Apparently St. Francis of Assisi spent a good deal of time there and this was considered to be an obscure, safe location to hide the Grail which, as I understand it, consists of the remains of Mary Magdalene and documents related to the role of the "sacred feminine" in early Christianity. This central role of women in the church was unfortunately abandoned by the men who conducted the Council of Nicaea in the early fourth century.
I obtained some clarification about the information contained in the Grail when I was referred to a drawing by Michelangelo and a painting by Botticelli. Looking closely at the drawing "Virgin and Child" by Michelangelo one can see the somewhat hidden image of a woman in the lower left (her lower right) part of her flowing robe, As you trace the top of her head toward the top you will notice where it points. Note also that she appears to be wearing a garment that has a dictinctive shell pattern to it. This brings us to the Botticelli painting "The Birth of Venus". Venus of course is the ancient goddess of love and a large shell is prominently featured in this famous painting. It is my belief that the Grail documents, once found, will discuss in detail the powerful role of human sexual experience in achieving spiritual enlightenment. This topic is discussed to some degree in the "DaVinci Code" but it is rather vague regarding the specifics of this beautiful gift which, I believe, is directly related to String Theory and the amazing creative power shared by all of humanity.
