Some people say the Earth is round. Some say it\u2019s flat. I\u2019ve even heard one theory about the earth being a bowl. Now, I never pick sides, but I always like to one-up them and say,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYou believe in the Earth?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One could say, \u2018Kerri, you live on earth.\u2019 Believe me, I am fully aware of that. However, I believe in a much larger picture. I believe the earth is a sponge in the shape of an egg, and it&#8217;s sitting in a restaurant in the real universe. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the earth is a sponge, we are the harmful bacteria living and growing inside it. The more we reproduce, the worse the sponge gets. It starts growing mold, it starts to fall apart. The more they try to kill us, the more intelligent and advanced we become. We find ways to survive in the harsh conditions- as if we were a new strand of the flu virus. We collect all the dirt and grime, and use it to form our empires. Roads, buildings, cars&#8230;.It all comes from what we have gotten while cleaning up the plates. Even our most precious resources come from us cleaning. Gold, for example, is just the yellow paint that chips off of fancy plates. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Our oceans are just sink water that&#8217;s becoming increasingly dirtier the longer it sits there. The rain is the new sink water that&#8217;s being used to wash dishes. As the sponge is scrubbed against the plate- we experience harsh weather conditions. Therefore making dishwashing time where our hurricanes and tsunamis come from. If the employee is doing it with minimum effort, it is only a wave in the ocean. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Now, let&#8217;s say we got left in the freezer overnight. We would have an ice age. Only some bacteria can live in those conditions, but once taken out of that environment would die. We have already had that happen with the mammoth-like bacteria. All that ice melts away eventually, right? Just like how the arctic areas are slowly but surely melting. The world is warming and defreezing. That&#8217;s what we think. In reality, The sponge has been taken out of the freezer. It\u2019s thawing out.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The sun is a light bulb. We see it from a distance, and it keeps us warm. However, we can&#8217;t touch it, or we\u2019ll die. As if we, the bacteria, were killed from extreme temperatures. What about the clouds? The clouds are just steam rising from the stove. \u00a0When the sun isn&#8217;t visible, and everything is dark- that&#8217;s the restaurant closing for the night. Sometimes there are unexplained periods of darkness. Sometimes there are solar eclipses. That can be either one of two things. One, the light bulb is being changed. Two, there is a power outage. At the end of the day though, we still have a light source, \u00a0and that would be what we call the moon and stars. The moon is the security system they turn on for the night, and the light signals it is armed. The stars are the streetlights outside the restaurant<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What about religion? I believe religion comes from the employees. Whichever one has to wash dishes that day- one side of the sponge will see them, and praise them as a higher being. They will say there is a reason for all those floods, those tsunamis. That it is their gods will. In reality, we are not cared about at all. We are only being used, being controlled for the sake of that higher being. This would also explain why there are so many religions,as there are many employees over the years that wash dishes. Jesus? An employee with long hair and loose clothes. Satan? Emo guy who shops at their equivalent of a hot topic. Sometimes he has a sunburn. \u00a0Buddha? The big guy who laughs a lot. They&#8217;re all well known, just more so on certain sides of the sponge. Their stories are written down, but truly it is us listening in on their conversations with other workers. Jesus tells the story of the time he got nailed. Satan tells the beef between him and Jesus\u2019s dad. We eavesdrop, and form a religion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, you may be wondering about space. If the earth is a sponge, there are holes. Those holes are used to escape into space. However, due to the limited number of color cones in our eyes, we are unable to see everything. Therefore we think space is dark. It is the kitchen, and it is so vast that we cannot see far beyond the sink we are in. The other planets are also sponges, all of different brands. Even pluto is a fraction of an old sponge that&#8217;s crumbled over time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using all of this information, I find it very possible that the Earth is just a mere sponge in a much larger world. There could be a whole other world (literally) of possibilities. There could be technology beyond our beliefs, people more amazing than anything or anyone in our history. The other world could be a paradise or dystopian world, yet we will never know. We are too small and insignificant in the grand scheme of things. We aren\u2019t powerful. We don\u2019t even get to pass as aliens. We are microorganisms, bacteria in a small, somewhat useful object. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kerri\u2019s Theory On The Universe What is the Earth?
