... world, this demand that time end, has been with the West ever since. Yet the apocalypse did not come, and the shape Christianity took depended on that fact. With the failure of apocalypse in the generation succeeding Christ it was inevitable that the cataclysmic imagery be counterbalanced. Thus it was only a matter of time before the uniformitarian cosmology of Aristotle, diffused already through the Hellenistic and Roman cultures, should be grafted onto Christianity. Aristotle's entire view of the world is predicated on the assumption of an unending cyclical repetition of time in the natural world and among the celestial bodies. To use Aristotelian "reason" for the interpretation of apocalyptic "revelation" is therefore nothing ...

"rises to the Sun's surface by convection (a laminar fluid flow) and is there radiated out into space". http://www.users.uswest.net/~dascott/Sun.htm Don Scott talks about Halton Arp and Wal Thornhill: There is a revolution coming in the "sciences" of astronomy and cosmology that will rival the one set off by Galileo. I hope I can live long enough to see at least the beginning of it. Here is a brief description of the battle I see brewing, and my reasons for being on one side of that fight. http://www.users.uswest.net/~ ...
283. Thoth Vol I, No. 1: January 25, 1997 [Journals] [Thoth]
... recent discovery of a Jupiter-like body orbiting very close to a nearby star argues strongly for this model and against the standard theory). A gas giant, in turn, due to either internal or external electrical disturbance may fission, spitting out its core, to give rise to the highly condensed planets, moons, asteroids, comets etc. COSMOLOGY - All of the above gives rise to the conviction that cosmology should be in the hands of the plasma physics experimenters (not the theorists). It is ironic that they have been chasing the holy grail of fusion power "just like the Sun", when that is patently wrong. (Interestingly, a recent breakthrough in fusion ...

... above paragraph mirrors my conception of what happened. The evidence suggests that oral language arose suddenly, not from a previous "mother" or proto-language but from radically new conditions, needs and context, and arose in the context of a crucially dramatic shared experience.- THE ABSURDITY OF NEUTRON STARS By Wal Thornhill Nowhere is the gravitational paradigm of cosmology shown to exhibit more strangeness than in compact high energy phenomena in deep space. A report in the journal Nature of 15 November proposes that a recently discovered star "is made of an exotic stuff called strange matter', never yet seen on Earth". In other words, it may be a "strange star". This ...

Unbowed despite his 79 years and speaking in resonant (if heavily accented) tones, he demonstrated the unshakeable belief in himself that was truly imposing. . . . all modern astronomers erred consistently; but Velikovsky- Velikovsky could do no wrong." (Sunday News)- "After 24 years of cosmological debate at a distance, two worlds finally collided at an opening session of the AAAS meeting here- Immanuel Velikovsky's world and almost everyone else's." (Science)- "Velikovsky himself appeared quite unshaken. He returned to the podium after each new onslaught to defend his work and accuse his attackers of bias.... he was ...

... see the Mediterranean, while from the other we could occasionally hear the sound of sporadic gunfire floating up from the West Bank. In Princeton, while living with her father she had come to know Einstein. She remembered him with much affection as being very modest about his achievements. With her main area of interest covering physics, astronomy and cosmology, she was very interested to hear of the recent work of Wal Thornhill and Halton Arp. However, in translating her father's historical books, she had learned much about ancient history and revisionism. She was also therefore particularly interested in the work of Dale Murphie, one of the few actively resurrecting and promoting some of Velikovsky's key synchronisms ...
