WELL, WHAT DO WE HAVE HERE?
The Plasma Universe Theory .....sounds interesting....
Hannes Alfven (1908 - 1995) explains:
"...if there was no Big Bang, how -and when- did the universe begin?
"There is no rational reason to doubt that the universe has existed indefinitely,
for an infinite time," Alfvén explained. "It is only myth that attempts to
say how the universe came to be, either four thousand or twenty billion years
ago. "Since religion intrinsically rejects empirical methods, there should never
be any attempt to reconcile scientific theories with religion he said. An infinitely
old universe, always evolving, may not, he admitted, be compatible with the
Book of Genesis. However, religions such as Buddhism get along without having
any explicit creation mythology and are in no way contradicted by a universe
without a beginning or end. Creatio ex nihilo, even as religious doctrine, only
dates to around AD 200" he noted. The key is not to confuse myth and empirical
results, or religion and science."
Alfvén admitted that his plasma universe theory may take a long time to penetrate
the popular consciousness. "After all," he asserted to a group of physicists,

"most people today still believe, perhaps unconsciously, in the heliocentric universe."
The group, at first incredulous, quickly nods in agreement as Alfvén continueed,
"every newspaper in the land has a section on astrology, yet few have anything at
all on astronomy."
