There is a need for one mechanism to accelerate cosmic rays universally over the full energy spectrum, isotropically, and space filling. The current view is a theory based upon a series of mechanisms, patched to fit various spectral regions with a mechanism for the origin of the UHCRs still in doubt. We suggest that the reconnection of force-free magnetic fields produced by the twisting of all imbedded magnetic flux by the vorticity motion of all accretion or condensations both within the Galaxy as well as the metagalaxy is the equilibrium and nonequilibrium methods are covered. This leads to the acceleration of all cosmic rays with both total energy and individual energies up to the highest observed of 3 x 10 to the 20th power ev and predicting an upper limit of 10 to the 23rd power ev.
