As a whole, this is an unconvincing, scientifically inaccurate video whose overall point relies on speculation. For starters, most minerals exhibit anisotropic properties (the 12 listed aren't particularly special in any regard), which lends credence to the possibility that the jewels listed in Revelation are merely a coincidence. There's also the fact that cross-polarized light, in reality, is nothing at all like what the individual in the video claims it to be. When you lay two polarized lenses on top of each other at a right angle, you get zero light through at all. Cross-polarized light, as it turns out, uses one such polarized filter atop another, but the second is polarized in circles. The first kind is called a "linear" polarizer. And, to boot, you'd have to be wearing polarizing sunglasses or be fitted with eyes that can supposedly see such light interacting with certain minerals. There's also the fact that it's implied that rubies don't exhibit birefringency in the video, which is false.

"Very straight light" or "pure light" are terms that would probably be scoffed at by gemologists in reference to the anisotropic properties of gemstones.
And at your age you are all that and a bag of chips when it comes to knowledge...oh wait, I meant a regurgitated knowledge......! I guess you have a piece of paper on the wall that states that you know something....maybe in another year or two and then it will still mean jack crap in the grand scheme of things as you will be just another educated puppet regurgitating what some other pot smoking acid guru college professor believes!

It really isn't much of a stretch to assume that it is, in fact, a coincidence when taking into consideration the fact that -- as I've mentioned before -- most minerals exhibit anisotropic properties as opposed to "just" the twelve listed in Revelation.
See there's the difference ... We don't believe in that farce called a " coincidence ". We believe in God.
