Transcript

Because this was an interview, there is no transcript for this episode. A brief list of topics discussed include:

  • Tom's background and interest in these topics, and why he sees young-Earth creationism as similar to electric universe ideas.
  • A "brief" history of the electric universe idea(s).
  • An overview of the basic ideas of electric universe.
  • Some examples of how the electric universe model does not work, because it makes specific predictions about what should happen very close to us, and observations show that it doesn't work that way.
