This was the age of electricity, when it changed and literally lit up the world. Chapter One really gets going, not just with the inspirational language but his workings out and forsight.
Did he predict
Space Tornadoes and/or Flux Transfer Events in 1903 using simple electrical laws and ideas? One of the Electric Universe Mantra's is that everything is scalable.
The Universe a Vast Electric Organism By George Woodard Warder - highlights of the Preface
This volume is intended to further elucidate my theories of electrical creation ...to show that the universe is a vast electric machine or organism.
...In discovering electricity man has discovered the working force of Deity, the right hand of Omnipotence, the word of creative power, and uses it in all fields of human effort
...The new heavens and the new earth as I see it through scientific facts and analogies is a perfect electrical machine, a vast electro-magnetic organism of marvelous power and perfection. This "stupendous mass of matter and force" we call the universe is a complete whole, a perfect unitry, creating its own light, heat and life and bound together by invisible electric ties of measureless power, as swift as lightning and as strong as Omnipotence.
...I had an indefinite idea that this mysterious force and the laws governing it might help to solve the riddle of the universe. I studied its application to the ordinary machinery and then applied it to the universe as a vast machine. And behold! the universe as a mighty electric machine or organism answered every scientific question and solved every puzzle in the material world as far as i could comprehend them.
I applied it to the suns and planets, man and all animal and vegetable organisms, and as electric creations and electric generators they explained a thousand mysteries. I found man the most perfect electric organism, woven by electric energy from invisible atoms, receiving his physical life, growth and nutrition, and digesting and assimilating his food by an electric process...
I sat in the twilight in the parlor of the old Coates House, a servant came in to light the gas. Instead of using a match, he turned on the gas, took a few gliding steps over the carpet and lit the gas by a flash of electricity from his finger, produced by touching his finger against the tip of the gas jet...In fact the servants seldom used matches in that parlor, the carpet held such surplus of electricity most any person could by a few gliding steps increase the electricity of their body so they could light the gas by a touch.
The I began to think -- electric fire in man's body, in the clouds, in coal and wood, on the telegraph line, in flint, in cold steel -- in everything. Electricity must be light, heat , life and creative force, and will explain the mysteries of nature.
The time will come, and is not far distant, when those who believe the sun is hot, or a burning globe of fire, will be regarded as the devotess of an antiquated superstition. The enlightened world will look upon them as they do now on those who believe in witches, human slavery and that the earth is flat; and will pity their ignorance, as we do those who worshipped the gods of Olympus.
