I'm getting ready for a long-awaited journey to Bryce Canyon and Zion Canyon National Parks for star-gazing in the high desert along with the podcasting heroes from the Grimerica Show and the Brothers of the Serpent Podcast and special guests -- perhaps including some readers of this blog!
The geological region which contains the wonders of Bryce and Zion contains distinctive and striking terrain features which relate as well to the Grand Canyon, the remains of petrified forests, and the famous mesas and basins found in areas such as Monument Valley and familiar from countless Hollywood films.
As the above video explains, a strong case can be made that they are all related to a massive catastrophic event in earth's ancient past. The video deals with the forces which it argues to have been responsible for the formations of Bryce Canyon and Zion Canyon beginning at around the 0:30:00 mark in the presentation.
This video explains the dramatic features of the Colorado Plateau using the paradigm of the Hydroplate Theory of Dr. Walt Brown -- a theory which I believe to be supported by tremendous amounts of evidence and about which I have written many times in the past.
While the theory has some connections to literalist interpretations of Biblical scriptures, it should be abundantly clear that I myself now argue that the events described in the Bible -- in common with ancient myth and sacred tradition from virtually every other culture on our planet -- can be shown to be celestial metaphor, and not literal history.
However, I do not at all believe that the majority of the arguments for a catastrophic event similar to that described in the Hydroplate Theory necessarily require literalist interpretations of ancient myth. On the contrary, it is very possible that there was a massive catastrophic event similar to that described in the video above at some point in our planet's ancient past, whether or not that historical event had any similarity to the events described in ancient myth (which can be shown to be based upon celestial metaphor, including the myths from various cultures which describe world-wide floods).
I highly recommend watching the above video with an open mind, and seeing if you do not agree that the mechanisms detailed therein appear to explain the evidence we find in the geology itself in a much more cogent and coherent manner than do the conventional explanations we are asked to unquestioningly accept and believe.
And, if at all possible, I hope that you might have an opportunity to visit this unique part of our earth at some point, and experience it for yourself!
