โThen he cried and said, โFather Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.โ But Abraham said, โSon, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things; but now he is comforted and you are tormented. And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor can those from there pass to us.โ
(Luke 16:24-26) NKJV
P-waves are compression, or sound waves. They can travel through solid, liquid or gas. They make the Earth ring like a bell. When an earthquake happens, hell’s a bell.
A P–wave is one of the two main types of elastic body waves, called seismic waves in seismology. P–waves travel faster than other seismic waves and hence are the first signal from an earthquake to arrive at any affected location or at a seismograph. P–waves may be transmitted through gases, liquids, or solids.
– P-wave, definition (Wikipedia)
The study of P and S-waves led to the development of the current theory of the internal structure of the Earth. A theory that just happens to be missing something rather important: hell.
Here’s a quote from Journeys to the Center of the Earth by Tim Folger for Discover Magazine, about the development of the current theory of the internal structure of the Earth.
Until well into the 20th century, most scientists believed Earth had a liquid iron core. The evidence seemed clear: Seismic maps of Earthโs interior revealed an absence of S-waves at the center of the Earth, presumably because the waves hit a liquid zone through which they could not travel. Seismic studies also revealed that all earthquakes created a P-wave โshadow zoneโ on Earthโs surface where primary waves didnโt arrive at some seismic stations; the location of the P-wave shadow zone varied with the point of origin of the earthquake. To explain the shadow zone, scientists reasoned that Earthโs presumed liquid core deflected P-waves from their expected trajectories, so they wouldnโt be recorded at all seismographic stations.

It was thought that the Earth had a liquid iron core. That fits all of the available evidence. That’s what we’re going with in Matty’s Paradigm. What happened to cause the train of thought of popular science (SciPop) to jump the tracks?
Salvation
- Call upon the name of Jesus Christ,
- believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead,
- confess your sin.
