... task. Dwardu Cardona, David Talbott, and Ev Cochrane's expose of the work of Bob Forrest's Velikovsky's Sources to show his mythic evidence does not survive the light of examination. Isaac Asimov also comes in for a scathing exposure by Ginenthal and Wolfe. A summary of the Affair by Irving Wolfe, and the historical, social, and the psychological significance. An addenda by Rose discussing his personal contacts with the Velikovsky's, followed by an analysis of ancient calendars suggesting that the 12th Egyptian dynasty must be moved earlier to the present by over 1000 years. The full discussion carried on between Velikovsky and his critics at the AAAS symposium. This is of major historical importance since it exists ...
422. Aeon Volume V, Number 1: Contents [Journals] [Aeon]
... Notebook titled Symbols of an Alien Sky. Ev Cochrane is the author of numerous articles on comparative mythology and archaeoastronomy. He previously served as an Associate Editor of KRONOS and is currently the publisher of AEON. He has also just published his first book, titled Martian Metamorphoses: The Planet Mars in Ancient Myth and Religion. Ken Moss studied psychology and sociology at the University of British Columbia. It was, however, his early exposure to ancient history and world mythology, together with the works of Immanuel Velikovsky and Dwardu Cardona, that led to his compelling lifelong interest in cosmogony and other origins. Describing himself as "a student of humanity in general and a fan of the ...
423. The Scientific Mafia [Journals] [Pensee]
... theory is true, what vistas it opens up for the whole study of religion, and of the fear of the skies in general! (Though Velikovsky himself never says a word about this.) Another is this. If anything remotely like Velikovsky's theory is true, the whole range of humanistic studies, classics, history, archaeology, psychology, anthropology takes on an entirely new interest, through being brought into living connection with astronomy and the earth sciences. The 18th century convinced men that old books- the Bible, etc. --were "literature." Thereupon mankind quite properly lost interest in them. Now, however, it becomes possible to regard them as something else; ...

425. Making Moonshine with Hard Science [Journals] [Kronos]
... confessed in the beginning that the Chaldeans and Egyptians knew all of this. But it was pure patriotism that motivated me to suppress the information. The Greeks have to invent everything. Especially the Athenians. They would have killed the project if they thought foreigners had beaten us to the results. Anyhow, this is all a problem for the psychologists and political scientists- the soft science guys. Papyrus K. Finally! After 20 years. Everyone professes to be amazed. Our party is in power. The Athenians are ablaze with patriotism. They praise Meton all over town. They are certifying my formula in gold letters on a prime wall location! In Meton's name, of ...
426. The Scars of Evolution: What Our Bodies Tell Us About Human Origins [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... , or malacoid, phylum. To repeat: I regard the preceding errata as too trifling to weaken Morgan's powerfully argued and well supported thesis. The chief value in citing them is to facilitate their elimination from a new edition. The only substantial alteration that occurs to me as possible, or even desirable, is one that deals with the psychological scars of human evolution - in addition to the physical scars with which the author has so ably dealt. Broadly speaking, I believe that our anxiety-ridden and irrationally destructive behaviour requires explanation and that the explanation is to be found in our prehistory rather than our history. Going further, I suspect that the emotional trauma which is manifest in ...

428. Phillip E. Johnson, "Darwin on Trial" [Journals] [Aeon]
... lines in Darwin on Trial, a larger more-detailed and abjectly appalling tapestry begins to appear which encompasses methodologies characterizing almost all disciplines. Astrophysics and cosmology emerge as tight little islands of self-cantered thought, joined by many of the other hard sciences, such as mathematics, nuclear physics, and thermodynamics, including the so-called soft sciences, as history, psychology, and mythology. The selfsame arguments used by the Darwinists against its own critics since 1859 have been identical in form and substance, and equally well-rehearsed, to those actually impartially applied against critical scholars, as the "pseudo-scientist" Immanuel Velikovsky, the astronomer-in-exile Halton Arp, the Nobelist Hannes Alfven, and other critics of the status quo ...
429. The Amarna Iconoclasts - Who were the Real Criminals? [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... what to look for. On occasions, faces of women (and some men) have been erased except where they are high up on the wall, but this could well date from much later activities of Coptic monks. This sort of activity, directed as it was into the private world of individuals rather than official inscriptions, appears more psychologically disturbing. It can easily be construed as a threat to Amunists and others that if they did not cooperate with the Atenist movement then more serious forms of erasure would be employed to expunge individuals from this life and the afterlife. It definitely has more criminal and sinister connotations. A more subtle form of iconoclasm concerns iconic representations of the ...

... is not to be explained away as easily as Shermer and Gould would have it, any more than can the question of innate differences between the sexes. But this controversy is best left for another occasion.
