... , the human race has never experienced cataclysm on a global scale. The problem lies in ancient concepts to the contrary. The Maya, for example, were passionately concerned that the carefully measured cycles of the Sun, planets, and stars would not become unstable as had happened in the past, causing great cataclysms on the Earth. Tim cosmologies of other ancient cultures, great and small, contain the same general ideas and much of their ceremony and ritual practice is in direct relation to these. The Judeo-Christian tradition itself is grounded in the concept of great cataclysms in nature including that prophesied for the final days of the Earth itself. There is secular history and tradition as weft ...
192. C&C Workshop 1995, Number 2: Contents [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... a growing interest in the works of modern catastrophists, notably the highly controversial Dr Immanuel Velikovsky. In his books Worlds in Collision, Earth in Upheaval and Ages in Chaos he argued that the ancient myths and sources such as the Bible contained records of planetary catastrophes in the Earth's history and, based on this, he suggested that geology, cosmology and ancient history should be reconsidered. In cosmology he proposed that electricity played a much larger role than in the orthodox scheme and that Venus in particular was a young planet. In ancient history, he proposed that the orthodox chronology should be severely shortened to eliminate false identifications and fictitious dark ages'. Over the years, the SIS ...
193. Phillip E. Johnson, "Darwin on Trial" [Journals] [Aeon]
... that no consensus whatsoever of any mechanism for speciation has yet appeared. Needless to say, the fossil problem has gotten worse instead of better. Moreover, there is still the prototypical challenge of when and where life itself began, for which no jump-start mechanisms have been successfully elucidated. The "anthropic principle"- imported from the science of cosmology- says that, since we are at this moment considering the question, it is self-evident that life did indeed have at least one initiating origin. And yet, when we find evidences for cellular life some four billion years ago, with the preceding emergence of self-replicating molecules and the subsequent development of cellular infrastructure, evolution had to have ...

196. The Neglected Facts of Science by Dewey B. Larson [Journals] [Kronos]
... again what is wrong with Einstein's Theory of Relativity, yet it seems to fall on deaf ears. The size of objects discussed - after he explains electricity, magnetism, and gravity - expands to include white dwarfs, quasars (as reported in his Quasars and Pulsars published in 1971), and supernovae. Ultimately, he discusses the current cosmological theories and shows how his theory, by attending to those facts neglected by others, does not need a Big Bang. The end result of his cosmological discussion is a cyclic or Steady State universe of motion in which there is a dynamic equilibrium between the cosmic sector and the material sector (where we are). Of the observational ...

198. Isotopic Anomalies in Chronometric Science [Journals] [SIS Review]
... at the Proterozoic-Cambrian boundary (the Yudomski event). A further category of "abundance anomalies" are the "extinct radio-activities", where a very long-lived radioisotope has decayed to a non-radiogenic daughter nuclide which is then present in "excess", so distorting the conventional abundance of the resulting element. These examples of extinct radioactivity are often of cosmological significance (22), and the recent detection of an Mg26 anomaly (derived from extinct Al26 - half life 106 years) in the Allende meteorite has been used to discuss a catastrophic birth of the solar system by Edmunds (op. cit). I hope to discuss these cosmological anomalies in a further paper, since they have ...

... the key to such minds as those of the Iranian bards out of whose rhapsodies the learned Firdausi organized the story. No basis in history can be found, no fertility or seasonal symbolism can be traced into it, and even the psychoanalysts have given up trying. This type of thought can be defined in one way: it is essentially cosmological. This is not to make things uselessly difficult, but to outline the real frame of mythical thought, such as is actually quite familiar and yet by now hardly recognized. It even appears in the mode of lyrical meditation, at least in the English of Fitzgerald: Iram indeed is gone with all its Rose And Jamshyd's Sev'n-ringed Cup ...
