... if not more so, than the results of outright warfare. At stake in the controversy over Velikovsky's ideas is not only the system used by science to change itself - which is largely the subject of this book - but also the substantive model of change to be employed by future science - whether is shall be comprehended mainly as revolutionary and catastrophic or as evolutionary and uniform. The controversy has had many striking facets. One has been the large participation of the public. It continues to increase. Velikovsky has managed to talk to people about mythology, archaeology, astronomy, and geology, without doing injustice to those disciplines, in an amazing and unprecedented manner. Socrates, Aristotle ...

203. 'Worlds in Collision' and the Birth of Monotheism [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Hyam Maccoby M.A . (Oxon): Librarian/Lecturer at Leo Baeck College, London; author of "The Revolution in Judaea" and the forthcoming "Jewish-Christian Mediaeval Disputation"; contributor to New Testament Studies, Encounter, The Listener, Midstream, etc., and an editor of Jewish Quarterly and European Judaism. The catastrophes postulated by Velikovsky have considerable implications for the development of the Israelite religion. The unique circumstances of the Exodus may have brought about a "mutation" in the Israelites' view of man and the universe, enabling them to abandon the worship of nature and embrace monotheism, and of incalculable influence on the development of religious thought. Recent ...
204. Crete. Ch.12 The Ruins Of The East (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... - is divided into Early, Middle, and Late Minoan ages, corresponding in time with the Old, Middle, and New Kingdoms in Egypt. The period of the Hyksos in Egypt, between the Middle and the New Kingdoms, coincides with the last-the third subdivision of Middle Minoan. All the great periods in Minoan Crete terminated in natural catastrophes. The monumental work of Sir Arthur Evans, The Palace of Minos at Knossos, furnishes abundant evidence of the physical nature of the destructive agent that brought to a close the ages of Minoan culture, one after the other. He speaks of a "great catastrophe" that took place toward the close of Middle Minoan II.1 ...

... also falls at its smallest size in this range, but can exceed these values, being up to 62 microns in diameter.14 The shells of marine organisms such as radiolaria, foraminifera, diatoms, and pteropods have diameters of around 8 to 1,000 microns.15 Therefore, if the ocean sediments were greatly disturbed by a recent catastrophe, the heaviest would settle first as the currents subsided and the lightest last when the currents were slowest. This does not mean that there would be a total separation of the various sediments, but it does mean that, in various areas, certain types of sediment would predominate over others. Sediments in the slowest moving water (the ...

207. What is Uniformitarianism and how did it get here? [Journals] [Horus]
... to take a novel approach: in his Principles of Geology, he argued against the catastrophists by saying that the diluvial theory was, in effect, mythological, and that it stood in the way of progress in geology. He concentrated on the gradual effects of erosion and volcanic uplift to rationalize the geological observations, completely ignoring all evidence of catastrophism. The liberals were delighted, and they elected him secretary, and later president of the Geological Society. Catastrophism was dead, and the principle of Uniformitarianism was established: geological changes took place slowly, over extremely long period of time, free of widespread catastrophic changes. The Society grew powerful: it was able to prevent publication of ...

209. Forget Amnesia [Journals] [Aeon]
... From: Aeon VI:3 (Nov 2002) Home | Issue Contents Forget Amnesia Henry Zemel Are we "mankind in amnesia," as Immanuel Velikovsky proposed? If global catastrophes indeed occurred in historic times, is it conceivable that these horrific events were wiped from human memory? Velikovsky found a satisfying answer in Freud's work on trauma. Freud had discovered that an individual frightened by a series of incidents may forget the whole episode, i.e ., the memory is repressed. Likewise, Velikovsky reasoned, catastrophic cosmic events so terrified humanity that subsequent generations repressed memory of the disasters. Contemporary practicing psychiatrists accept Freud's idea of trauma-induced amnesia- at least the ones I ...
