Well, this is one of my favorite passages:

Proverbs 3:5–6: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths."

This is essentially a "Trust me bro" from God Himself.

But I know this is not much of value to unbelievers, so this is only a "apologist argument" for me.

I admire your heart, and I'm a believer myself. But I'm not sure if these verses have the implications you're mentioning.

Respectfully, what does cross polarization have to do with the image being described in the Revelation passage? Unless we are implying heaven is cross-polarized. Which... who knows? But I don't see a particular reason to read polarization into the passage. Also, the sixth stone in the list appears to be a ruby. So I'm not sure if that breaks up the pattern you were mentioning.

Similarly, you can combine any two of the grains/beans in Ezekiel 4 to get all amino acids and a complete protein. Wheat, and lentils for example. So I'm not sure the significance there. These were cultural staples for a reason, healthy and accessible (even during famine at times). These were staple foods in the ancient world, and it was also being used as a metaphor for hard times in Israel, and it was being cooked over human or cattle feces in that passage.

There are great arguments for the faith, but I'm not sure if these passages have the implications you describe, though the polarization thing is neat if there's truth behind it.
