I agree. Getting back to the Ra quote, scientists say these days (well, I haven't looked them up lately) that the universe began with Hydrogen only, which they describe as one electron surrounding one proton. Dewey Larson said that atoms don't have nuclei, but that's another topic.
This congrues (a real word?) with Ra that, I interpret, first was only the One who put light into a vacuum and then coaxed the light into matter, which I submit was hydrogen, maybe just scattered all over. Ever so gradually, those atoms gravitated together into clumps that glowed as they got close enough, and squeezed out some of that light as they converted the hydrogen to helium.
Eventually the hydrogen stars blew up according to the One Plan, say I, spewing hydrogen, a little helium and a very little of a few new elements. This stuff repeated that process by coalescing into more modern stars and repeating. Scientists say that all of the elements except hydrogen came from stars.
Back to Ra: they said Intelligent Infinity influenced various things to fall together into lenticular shaped stuff, including planetary systems and galaxies. So in that sense, disks with bulges made up a lot of components of the early universe and still do.
Thanks for the quote, crimson.
