Atlantis found (again), this time, off the coast of Brazil
How exciting! Atlantis found…again! This time, 900 miles off the coast of Brazil.
I’m delighted that the lost city of Atlantis has at least been found in a part of the world where you would expect it to have been–in the middle Atlantic.
* NOT in Indonesia, which is in the Indian and Pacific Oceans–NOTE: Does Atlantis sound like Indian or Pacific or like Atlantic? Since Atlantis sounds like Atlantic, could this be a clue!
* NOT in the sea between Denmark and Scotland and between France and England. Yes, the sea separating these northern countries are close to the Atlantic Ocean, but this would be the north Atlantic. Plato said Atlantis was outside the Pillars of Hercules, the passageway where the Mediterranean Sea opens up to the Atlantic Ocean in the middle Atlantic, not the north. Close but no prize.
* NOT off the coast of Ireland, a spoof put together by Weekly World News saying that Atlantis was actually a thriving island off the coast of Ireland. The spoof appeared after reports said that Google maps had found Atlantis, but it only turned out to a grid-like pattern made in the Atlantic Ocean floor by the Google maps boat.
* NOT the ice-bound continent of Antarctica at the South Pole, where it has been conjectured that Atlantis could have drifted on tectonic plates.
* NOT in the many other diverse places too numerous to mention where Atlantis has been found
I find it so very refreshing that this time, that Atlantis may have been found in a part of the world where the lost continent of Atlantis may have been, filling the space in the Atlantic Ocean between the Mediterranean Sea and the coast of Brazil.
Another refreshing detail of this recent Atlantis find: Unlike one of the researchers who prematurely announced that Atlantis had been found in a swamp in Spain, Roberto Ventura Santos, the Brazilian geology director, and Japanese university professor Shinichi Kawakami, whose teams are working on the Brazilian find, wonder if they have found a lost piece of the huge, ancient, unified continent of Pangea. They’re keeping their conjectures conservative and are not jumping to any conclusions.
That’s not only refreshing, it’s also delightful! Check it out at The Christian Post.
