Aw, come off it.  The Electric Sun model is not a complete (or particularly coherent) theory.  Magnetic reconnection is observed routinely in the laboratory, and is predicted by the resistive MHD equations (which in turn are derived from the Navier-Stokes equations and Maxwell's Equations).   Signatures of reconnection have been observed directly in Earth's magnetosphere, and the associated topological changes are routinely observed in solar movies of EUV emission from the corona.
