Manifesto for a Decent Human World
The Philosophy of the Ganymede Hypothesis
(A Manifesto for a Decent Human World)
“Ganymede Hypothesis?” you ask… A believable human home world would have to be:
- Bright (the relatively tiny human eyes and minimal night vision)
- Warm (the lack of fur)
- Wet (the aquatic adaptations documented by Elaine Morgan). Earth has oceans and other bodies of water but none safe for humans to spend large portions of their lives in.
- Safe from sea monsters, particularly sharks as well as Entelodonts, Hyenadons, Terror Birds, and other land monsters.
- Safe from cosmic radiation. That requires an intrinsic magnetosphere which, within our system at present, only Earth and Ganymede have.
Ganymede is Jupiter's largest moon, slightly smaller than Mars. A hundred and fifty thousand years ago, Ganymede had all of those requirements; Earth had the magnetosphere but none of the rest of it.

Introduction: Earth as a Hostile Planet
One of the central themes of the Ganymede Hypothesis is simple but profound: Earth is not a reasonable human world. The biosphere is filled with hazards—biological, ecological, and atmospheric—that make long-term flourishing difficult. Everything from blood-feeding insects to venomous arthropods to giant oceanic predators appears fundamentally mismatched to human physiology and psychology.
Humans are bright-light primates with aquatic adaptations, small eyes, delicate skin, minimal fur, and a brain architecture that (as Julian Jaynes noted) once relied on a global communication system—possibly electromagnetic in nature—that collapsed after a cosmic catastrophe.
If humans came from a world like Ganymede—bright, warm, wet, safe, and shielded—then Earth’s violent and predatory environment is not “natural” for us. It is an alien ecology into which we were placed, or into which we fell, after the break-up of the original Saturnian configuration.
Section 1 — The Case for Re-Engineering Earth
When environmentalists speak reverently of “nature,” they rarely distinguish between benign life and the “creatures of Pandora’s box”—parasites, blood-feeders, venomous organisms, and apex predators that make large portions of the planet uninhabitable for humans.
The Ganymede Hypothesis draws a moral line:
- Life created by the benevolent Intelligence behind DNA/RNA deserves preservation.
- Life created by hostile or deranged ancient bio-engineers does not.
There is no rational moral duty to preserve mosquitoes, fleas, ticks, schistosomes, filarial worms, blackflies, biting midges, venomous spiders, scorpions, or sharks. These organisms sabotage human well-being and offer no benefits that cannot be duplicated or replaced. Fish that eat mosquitoes will eat something else.
The first step toward a decent human world is eliminating hostile biological species. Not crop-spraying billions of acres with toxins, but using modern tools: CRISPR gene drives, Wolbachia releases, sterile male programs, and targeted ecological suppression.
Humanity has the technology. What is lacking is the philosophy.
Section 2 — The Pacific Ocean: The Missing Half of Civilization
Groups such as PrometheanAction envision a world population of 50–100 billion humans. This is not possible on land alone. The only way to achieve such a population is to colonize the Pacific Ocean, which represents half the planet’s surface area.
Imagine 1,000–1,500-foot submersible megastructures—“yellow submarines,” to borrow the Beatles’ phrase—each supporting 20,000–40,000 residents. On their tops, Marston-mat platforms provide:
- gardens and agriculture,
- solar power,
- athletics facilities,
- schools and labs,
- aquaculture and desalination systems.
These structures can descend 200–300 feet to avoid storms, cluster into floating cities, and travel across the Pacific as needed. Millions of such habitats could support tens of billions of humans with abundant food, water, energy, and living space.
But only if the ocean is made safe.
Section 3 — Sharks: The Oceanic Analogue of Mosquitoes
To take over the oceans, humans must confront the ultimate Pandora creature: sharks.
Sharks are not edible (ammonia-laden tissue), are dangerous to humans, and consume staggering quantities of edible fish. They represent a major ecological obstacle to human oceanic civilization. Unlike big cats—whose presence can be controlled without extermination—sharks offer almost no upside in the coming human-centered planet.
The policy path is simple:
- For starters,remove all government protections,
- identify the half dozen to dozen species responsible for nearly all attacks on humans ,
- exterminate those species,(for starters) That of course would not fix the problem of sharks consuming the major portion of edible fish in the world's oceans; the ultimate goal should be eradication of all sharks with the possible exceptions of the large plankton eaters.
- greatly expand edible fish biomass,
- create safe seas for floating human cities.
This is a rational step toward a human-friendly Earth.
Section 4 — Human Psychological Pathology as a Result of Planetary Hostility
Why is human behavior so pathological—among individuals and nations?
The Ganymede model offers a compelling answer:
We are a species adapted to a safe world, living in a hostile one.
Constant exposure to parasites, venomous creatures, predation risks, poor water quality, and atmospheric instability creates chronic stress, hypervigilance, overactive threat-detection, and aggression. Nations behave like traumatized organisms because humanity itself is traumatized—exactly as Immanuel Velikovsky argued in Mankind in Amnesia.
The combination of biological mismatch and cultural amnesia explains much of human cruelty, conflict, and self-sabotage. Re-engineering Earth to be compatible with human physiology is not merely a scientific project—it is a psychiatric one.
Section 5 — The Ancient Planetary Gods: Jupiter, Saturn, and the Question of Sentience
Ancient cultures universally worshiped Jupiter and Saturn as literal gods. “El” was the Mediterranean name for Saturn; “Jove/Jahveh” reflected Jupiter. This is not coincidence.
If the ancient solar system existed in a linear plasma alignment—as Velikovsky, Cardona, and Talbott suggest—then Jupiter and Saturn may once have been sentient plasma entities connected to Earth via Birkeland currents.
In that case:
- Jupiter (“Jove”) may have communicated with ancient humans,
- the Ark of the Covenant may have been an electrostatic communication device,
- the collapse of the alignment ended both telepathy and planetary communication.
This is not mysticism. It is plasma physics applied to ancient testimony.
Section 6 — The Lost Antediluvian Communication System
Human brains appear to have a right-hemisphere analog of the speech center, largely dormant since antiquity. Combined with Jaynes’s bicameral mind theory and global mythological testimony, the simplest conclusion is:
Humans once communicated partly through a planetary electromagnetic coherence field.
After the Flood and the collapse of the Saturnian configuration, this field evaporated. Humans were forced to invent spoken language—badly. The Tower of Babel event may record the sudden loss of coherence.
It is entirely possible to reconstruct this communication field through controlled ELF resonance, static fields, and artificial coherence devices. This would provide instant communication across any distance—more valuable than interstellar travel.
Conclusion — A Decent Human World
The Ganymede Hypothesis is not merely a theory of human origins. It is a blueprint for a better future.
Humanity can:
- eliminate parasitic and predatory species that sabotage well-being,
- remake Earth’s biosphere into a safe habitat,
- colonize the Pacific and support 50–100 billion humans,
- end global scarcity and ecological fear,
- revive ancient communication technologies,
- restore human mental health by removing biological hostility.
In short:
Humanity can terraform its own planet—finally making Earth a decent human world.
