... of millions of years allotted by Lyellian uniformity, it seems, are insufficient to overcome the improbabilities of Darwinian gradualist evolution. Hoyle and Wickramsinghe, while superficially flirting with astral catastrophism, are in fact seeking to gain the extra time and space Darwin still needs by "exporting" the gradualist evolutionary process from the limits of the Earth into the ... "precessional momentum" to carry the inversion through to completion is not consistent with Euler's dynamical equations. Eric Crew comments: "It would show a more scientific attitude if catastrophists' were allowed to state their case before assuming that the flaw in Warlow's paper, if proved, is fatal to his theory. There are many aspects of pole-flipping ...

' thought comes from unshackled and unblinkered, thinkers who are not influenced by the everlasting battle between the Theorists and Observers. Finally, Velikovsky may not have been the first catastrophist but he certainly has been the most influential in this century. I wonder what we would all be doing this weekend but for his insight. ...

... summer of 1939. Influenced to remain in America through the forces of world events as well as the course of his own research, he became interested in the theme of catastrophes that he identified running throughout his studies of ancient records. From 1940 to 1950 he researched and wrote Ages in Chaos and Worlds in Collision. In 1950 the latter ... or future terms, rarely considering the implications of our involvement in a catastrophe. Patrick Doran, on the other hand, I think might best be described as a present-tense catastrophist. He has notably been involved in a survival-day project in 1970, and was also national co-ordinator of a nationwide effort to bring to the attention of the federal government ...

... however, at a distinct advantage here, in not being burdened with any of the historical and mythological evidence which is responsible for catastrophists' aberrant views. A breath of catastrophism does, nevertheless, enter the theory. Computer simulations have confirmed, says NASA, that such a gas-giant configuration would indeed remain stable for several times the thousand years ... gas giants - a finding which has spurred on research into solar system formation being carried out by NASA at their Ames Research Center in California, with implications to hearten the catastrophist (but unlikely to concern NASA's scientists, whose gaze is directed over millions of years and towards putative planetary systems surrounding other stars). The Mountain View team espouse ...
... man who brought the planets into disorder. What do you know of astronomy?" But, after a brief chat, Einstein agreed to meet with Velikovsky sometime to discuss catastrophism. On August 26, Velikovsky wrote Einstein that, although he was aware of Einstein's animosity toward the new cosmography, Velikovsky had not expected it from him; historians ... had been quite receptive and had tried without success to verify experimentally some of Reich's propositions. While Velikovsky was writing his challenge to geological uniformitarianism, Einstein was working with another catastrophist, Charles H. Hapgood, who proposed that the Earth's crust has recently and repeatedly shifted due to imbalances caused by the planet's nonsphericity and asymmetrical icecap growth. The ...

... . James is at his best when arguing that Plato's knowledge of astronomy and the other sciences has been vastly underrated, and that his writings cannot be understood apart from his catastrophism. After providing a wealth of evidence in favor of this claim, James writes: "There are scores, possibly hundreds of books on the philosophy of Plato that ... passing reference to his catastrophic views. Why? The only answer can be that for most of the century catastrophism has been a very dirty word in scientific circles. The catastrophist ingredient in Plato's work, though plainly present, has simply been ignored. Its omission from description of Plato's world view was easily managed in an intellectual climate which assumed ...
