06 · EDITION AND WITNESS COMPARISON
How the evidence for Edgar Cayce's Earth-Change Readings changes
The date of a document and the date of an interpretation are recorded separately.| Witness or edition | Date | Editorial status | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Edgar Cayce A.R.E. | 1901–1945 | Baseline source | Numbered transcripts exist, but popular maps often combine several readings and omit conditional wording. |
| Scholarly or institutional interpretation | Later review | Context layer | Explains language, history and uncertainty without becoming the original text. |
| Viral quotation or modern event match | Recent circulation | Derivative layer | Most vulnerable to translation drift, omitted failures and hindsight; compare with Edgar Cayce A.R.E.. |

Major Earth changes would alter coastlines and reveal ancient records.

Outcome test
The dramatic changes have not occurred on the advertised scale; geological evidence does not validate Atlantis claims.
08 · WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED
Comparison with events
The dramatic changes have not occurred on the advertised scale; geological evidence does not validate Atlantis claims.09 · DISPUTES AND COUNTERARGUMENTS
Where interpretation changes
The main dispute concerns the distance between 1901–1945 and Numbered readings · compiled maps · post-disaster reinterpretation. Translation, selective quotation, changed definitions and hindsight can make a broad record appear more exact than it was. Competing readings are therefore preserved rather than silently merged.10 · EVIDENCE SCORE & PROVISIONAL CONCLUSION
Documented archive · prediction disputed
A subset of Edgar Cayce readings concerns geological upheaval, inundation and changing coastlines. SALGIL's provisional score reflects source traceability and testability, not religious worth or cultural importance.11 · SOURCES AND REVIEW
