New gravitational wave detector picks up possible signal from the beginning of time

Artis impression of what gravitational waves might look like

Bumps in detector could point to new physics.

Two intriguing signals spotted in a small gravitational-wave detector could represent all kinds of exotic phenomena — from new physics to dark matter interacting with black holes to vibrations from near the beginning of the universe.

Scientific Facts

You shall have just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin: I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.
(Leviticus 19:36) ESV

Popular science (SciPop) is an inductive rationalization of the the premise that the universe has no divine, supernatural cause. Unfortunately the universe has a divine, supernatural cause.

The Third Heaven

And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever. (Daniel 12:3)

(the firmament, sea of glass or heliopause)

I know a certain Christian man who fourteen years ago was snatched up to the highest heaven (I do not know whether this actually happened or whether he had a vision—only God knows). I repeat, I know that this man was snatched to Paradise (again, I do not know whether this actually happened or whether it was a vision—only God knows), and there he heard things which cannot be put into words, things that human lips may not speak.
(2 Corinthians 12:2-4) Good News Translation

The third heaven is the dome or firmament, which is a sea of glass. It’s a rigid crystalline sphere on the edge of space which formed in response to the creation of gravity on the second day.

Circumstantial Evidence

This bread of ours we took hot for our provision from our houses on the day we departed to come to you. But now look, it is dry and moldy.
(Joshua 9:12) NKJV

Circumstantial evidence is when two things happen at the same time which may or may not be related, but we decide to use one as evidence for what we believe about the other.

Introduction

For in much wisdom is much grief, And he who increases knowledge increases sorrow.
(Ecclesiastes 1:18) NKJV

Gravity isn’t merely an implicit property of space-time as popular science (SciPop) has conveniently chosen to believe. That’s merely an opportunistic rationalization of circumstantial evidence.

Theoretical Evidence of the Firmament

Hast thou with him spread out the sky, which is strong, and as a molten looking glass?
(Job 37:18) KJV

Current cosmological models of the universe appear to show that 80% of the mass of the universe is missing. There’s no physical reason why the cosmos maintains its current stable state.

You Can’t Believe We’re THAT Stupid!

Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.
(1 Corinthians 3:18) NKJV

Before you choke with indignation about our stupidity because we’re apparently unaware that there are photographs of a black hole, let’s bring up the issue of epistemology. What is knowledge?

Black Holes and Dark Matter

Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
(Isaiah 5:20) NKJV

All current cosmological models show that somewhere between %80-85 of the mass of the universe is missing. Based on our understanding of particle physics we can move this number up to %90. Where is it?

The Distance to the Firmament

Is not God in the height of heaven? and behold the height of the stars, how high they are! And thou sayest, How doth God know? can he judge through the dark cloud? Thick clouds are a covering to him, that he seeth not; and he walketh in the circuit of heaven.
(Job 22:12-14) KJV

The distance to the firmament (heaven), from the center of the Earth, is approx. 1,736,441 light years. But we (that’s me and the Holy spirit) would appreciate it if someone would check our math.

General Relativity is Dead

Mass sinks in time, into stratified layers of sediment: a solid core on fire in the darkness, sunk in the shadow of death.
(Job 28:3) MP Technical Paraphrase

If God created gravity independently of matter, space, and time, but we can still account for all physical evidence and empirical observations, then we’ve refuted part of theoretical Physics.
