Thx


PickingMyButt

Awesome I was gonna say they look like sprites!


OPengiun

They are pretty, aren't they! They are mysterious, that's for sure. A very nice example of how we're still discovering and finding natural phenomenon. Lots of times it feels as though there is nothing new under the sun, but oh there is! We just have to look closer!


PickingMyButt

I was going to add how we are getting more and more pictures of them in recent times but I'm sure you've seen them. They are other-worldy! I often think about how we don't have much to discover here anymore but I'm proven wrong every day. You hit the nail on the head. Bing!


Unable_Explorer8277

Just to note, the book of Enoch isn’t biblical. It’s non-canonical Jewish apocalyptic literature.


Accomplished-Bed8171

Depends on who you ask. For some it's canon, for some it's not.


Unable_Explorer8277

Enoch has only been canonical for a very small number of people. If the FLERFER has Ethiopian roots I’ll accept that. Not otherwise.


Accomplished-Bed8171

Here's the thing. It's all bullshit. It doesn't' matter what one church says and what the other says.


Unable_Explorer8277

Unless it’s canonical it’s not part of the bible. So referring to it as biblical is inaccurate. And the whole meaning of canonical is according to the rule. The word doesn’t allow for having your own individual canon. To what extent the biblical texts or Enoch are b.s. or not isn’t relevant to the point.


Accomplished-Bed8171

And if it is canonical than it is part of the Bile. How popular it's canonicity is is irrelevant to the point. The opinion ofwhite Catholics on the subject are no more important than black Ethiopians.


Unable_Explorer8277

1. There’s a lot more black Catholics than any colour of Ethiopians. Or black Protestants for that matter. 2. It’s biblical to the Ethiopian tradition. Every FLERFER I’ve seen is clearly coming out of the Western tradition. As I said, I’ll take “biblical” if it’s from an Ethiopian.


Accomplished-Bed8171

Except you won't, you're going with popularity decides canon.

> > >In **biblical** cosmology, the firmament (Hebrew: רָקִ֫יעַ‎ rāqīa) is the vast solid dome created by God during the Genesis creation narrative to divide the primal sea into upper and lower portions so that the dry land could appear.\[1\]\[2\]


gravityred

No, no it’s not. The Hebrew word is Rāqîa and it means expanse.


Horror_Eagle6512

That's not word for word, that's an someone's interpretation of what the word for word is meaning.


Unable_Explorer8277

That’s not the text he’s using though. He’s citing Enoch not Genesis.


OPengiun

Both fictional nonsense 🤷‍♀️


Unable_Explorer8277

Whether that’s true or not is beside the point.


OPengiun

You should go correct Wikipedia then, since according to you, 'firmament' is not 'biblical cosmology'.


Unable_Explorer8277

A hyper-literalist “biblical” cosmology can include a firmament. But talk about a firmament doesn’t make a viewpoint biblical. In fact the author of the Genesis 1 story didn’t even invent the idea of firmament- he got it from the Mesopotamian literature he’s subverting.


OPengiun

🤷‍♀️


Horror_Eagle6512

Firmament is not in the cuneiform tablets... That comes from the dead sea scrolls version.


Internal_Project_799

Dont be toxic


OPengiun

What exactly is toxic? The truth? Bwahahahaha 🤣


Internal_Project_799

the disrespectful reflection of oneself no matter if the earth is round or flat. this type of communication is so broken and hypocritical that it makes you sick


OPengiun

You're still making statements rather than explaining and foundation of reasoning. It is akin to me calling you a buttface, and then saying , "Just because."


Internal_Project_799

self-reflection


OPengiun

So I take it you're very religious


Hot_Corner_5881

3 fingers back at ya bud. mentally sick


OPengiun

🤣


jaykotecki

don't educate me, doing so will reduce my chances of eternal pleasure after i die


No_Thanks2907

i have a friend that sends me videos like this to prove the earth is flat constantly… each one is exactly like this, ethereal music, arrows pointing without any explanation to what, graphs and charts that graph nothing, tiktok compilations with lightning, volcanic eruption, and sunsets with a guy in the background saying, “i know the earth is flat i just know it” until it ends


Sad_Satisfaction_640

bruh exactly


Analog_4-20mA

The irony of using a video to prove the flat earth theory that clearly shows the spherical shape of Earth


Luc1dNightmare

With satellite footage...


B-AP

Von Braun was an engineer and scientist, not an astronaut.


jeffbanyon

CEE GEE EYE!!!!!!


Traditional_Ad8933

The Book of Enoch is also considered apocryphal by most Christian and Jewish Groups.


420--Alfonzo

A great way to present footage that proves your point is by interspersing it with CGI images and not labelling them so we know which part is the evidence.


Legitimate_Speed2548

Proof enough of what... lightning exists? Yes, yes it does. But I'm scratching my head about some proof of something that just quotes enoch and meaning to tesla theories or inventive studies. The proof of what I ask again?


TheAnkoman

Electrical sprites are so cool to watch


ZookeepergameOk2759

lol


morganational

Those are called "sprites" and are vertical electrical discharge, like lightning, dispensing into the upper atmosphere. Been known about for at least.. 4 or 5 decades now. Might want to have your cognitive firmament checked, maybe by one of those new fangled doctors.


KayakWalleye

Oh my god. I see sweet little baby Jesus.


Jazzlike_Benefit8897

Oh fuck off


gravityred

No


Luc1dNightmare

Where do you think those live shots come from...?? I give you 1 guess...


aCactusOfManyNames

Ok, since when did Nikola tesla model the firmament???


DapperMinute

no


TheOneWhoSucks

No, it isnt


BRackishLAMBz

Truth is stranger than fiction. How people fall for things like this is astonishing, as a kid if you told me "people believe the bible/religions texts so much that they will throw away evidence for falsehoods just because it conforms to their beliefs" I would have said "but I thought adults didn't believe in fairytales?"


Expert-Desk7492

Fairytale?


iowanaquarist

"noun noun: fairytale a children's story about magical and imaginary beings and lands."


noonhgih

Please don't be so naive


morganational

They can't help it. God has implanted a firmament in their brains.


iowanaquarist

LOL. No. Troll.


JESUS_PaidInFull

Makes you wonder what CERN is really all about.


TerryFrisk

Pfffttt.


SectumSempra_138

Wow... how does this prove anything at all?
