Some Theories

There is no gravity at the Poles (easily proven). The gods came and went at the North Pole, just as the ancients said. No rocket fuel needed. They floated in and out. Satan and his angels fell lightly down through Irminsul, the ancient word for the Polar highway. And now you know why highways are called "high"-ways.

A Drop = Dropas = Nibelung.

Elohim = Mutant Man, aka Goths/Gods & Reds.

Much of the Bible is told from a subterranean point-of-view.

An Electric Sun driven by Remote Control

Chaos = Mutation.
From Mutation Ignorance and Death were Born.

Punctuating the Mind - Quotation Marks = Double Yod, and one Yod = Apostrophe. There, now I've made my points (by piercing the brain) and the Man is obeying my commands.
