I hope this doesn't read like a silly question, but I've been wondering if our planet EARTH, would be more correctly viewed as an enormous electro-magnet?
After all, we know it has an magnetic field, and it is continually spinning - with a vast amount of electro-magnetic radiation flowing (or) being constantly attracted inwards - towards it's centre, which to a Reject, all sounds a little like the way an electro-magnet functions.
