... . 2 (Winter 1985) Home | Issue Contents Jerusalem - City of Saturn Lewis M. Greenberg Copyright (c ) 1984 by Lewis M. Greenberg In an earlier paper,(1 ) Warner Sizemore and I presented a wide range of evidence in support of the thesis that first millennium Jerusalem could rightfully be called "the city of Venus". Now - as a result of further research, the perspective of time, and the work of others - it has become necessary to reassess our previous position. While not wishing to discount the importance and direct influence of Venus on ancient Israel in general and Jerusalem in particular,(2 ) it would appear that the role ...
392. The Rites Of Moloch [Journals] [Kronos]
... opinion that Raphan (or Rephaim) is a reminiscence of a Hebrew word meaning "the shades",(37) but actually the name Remphan is nothing but a mistransliteration into Greek of the same Chiun contained in Amos.(38) Jerome interpreted the star of Chiun asLucifer(39) which is popularly believed to have stood for Venus. This was accepted by Velikovsky(40) since, in his scheme, the Israelites were supposedly set free from Egyptian bondage by the intervention of a close Venerian approach. It would therefore have been understandable had the Israelites carried an image of the Venerian star in their subsequent wandering through the desert. As Martin Sieff correctly informed us ...
393. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... SIS Workshop Vol 6 No 1 (May 1985) Home | Issue Contents Monitor Venus's Embarrassing Heat sources: NATURE 307, p.222; NEW SCIENTIST 2.2 .84, p.20 "Astronomers using the Anglo-Australian Telescope in New South Wales have been surprised to discover short-wavelength infrared radiation coming from the dark, night-time side of Venus". We have here a new twist to the old story, for Venus is thought to emit heat from the top of its clouds mainly in the longer wavelengths. According to theory, shorter wavelength heat should be absorbed by the carbon dioxide etc. in the Venusian atmosphere, giving rise to a "greenhouse effect". The ...
394. Tao, Part 2 Mars Ch.3 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... From "Worlds in Collision" © 1950 by Immanuel Velikovsky | FULL TEXT NOT AVAILABLE Contents Tao What is it that we call the Tao? There is the Tao, or Way of Heaven; and there is the Tao, or Way of Man. KWANG-TZE Planets of the solar system were disturbed by the contacts of Venus, Mars, and the earth. We have already referred to the annals of the Bamboo Books, where it is written that in the tenth year of the Emperor Kwei, the eighteenth monarch since Yahou, "the five planets went out of their courses. In the night, stars fell like rain. The earth shook."1 The disturbances ...
395. Pot Pourri [Journals] [SIS Review]
... was to find a scientific grounding for ancient texts. ' His major criticisms are: Velikovsky's thesis lacks physical evidence, unlike the Big Bang. Assuming all [emphasis added] the Solar System planets were ejected from Jupiter, and Jupiter's rotation was slowed each time, it would have had to start with an impossibly high rotation rate'. Venus and Jupiter have entirely different compositions. The orbits of Jupiter's moons should have been bent into long ellipses by an expelled Venus. The amount of energy needed to expel Venus would have vaporised her – she would not have been a solid body. Venus is too hot for any bug' to survive there. Far from producing manna, ...
396. As Worlds Collide [Journals] [Kronos]
... an Anthology presented to Dr. Immanuel Velikovsky on December 5, 1975, in honor of Dr. Velikovsky and the 25th anniversary of Worlds in Collision; it is our hope to publish the Anthology in its entirety The Ed.) Part One THE WORLD TURNED OVER In Worlds in Collision Velikovsky claims that in about the year -1500 the planet Venus, then incandescent, comet-like, and moving in a comet-like orbit,(1 ) passed very close to the Earth's surface, causing global destruction which nearly annihilated mankind and which totally disrupted all civilizations of the Earth.(2 ) Consider a proto-planet of Venus' size passing within a few radii of Earth's surface, say 30, ...
397. Child of Saturn (Part V) [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. X No. 3 (Summer 1985) Home | Issue Contents Child of Saturn (Part V)Dwardu Cardona Copyright 1985 by Dwardu Cardona 24. Anat Our quest for the progenitor of Venus has led us from an analytical study of the Persian Anahita to the Canaanite and Carthaginian deities, Anat and Tanit.(1 ) Shall we fare better in our attempt to unmask Venus' real parent through an investigation of these deities? The case for Anat, with whom we shall commence, is straightforward enough. As Immanuel Velikovsky pointed out, a Cyprian inscription identifies Anat with the Greek Athene(2 ) who, despite Bob Forrest's contention to the ...

... their posts." (1 ) Now, a further twelve years on, in parallel with a growing interest amongst scientists in the real issues, the unsavoury aspects of the "affair" continue. "Worlds in Confusion!", "Monsters of Doom!", "Velikovsky in Chaos", "Attack of the Vermin from Venus!" - such titles herald the "usual article" only too familiar to followers of the Velikovskian literature. One of the practical difficulties facing the S.I .S . is the distorted image of Velikovsky and his theories which is to be found in the literature available to the general public - and in "general public" ...
399. You too can in the Yucatan [Journals] [Horus]
... ? The Governors Palace sits atop a large earth-mound platform and seems to be astronomically oriented toward the horizon. Uxmal - The "gunsight" effect is emphasized looking toward the eastern horizon from the center door. The broken stone pillar in alignment with the center door and jaguar-altar leads the eye to a point on the horizon which newly matches where Venus would have risen at its maximum southerly declination around 1200 years ago, the estimated age of the Governors Palace. Following an afternoon of relatively light site-hopping we return to the hotel for swimming, refreshments at the pool-side patio, and evening dinner. Before returning to Merida, we visit Uxmal again after sundown, to attend a beautifully colored ...

... S . Review Journal of the Society for Interdisciplinary Studies Articles Bruno de Finetti: Science and Novelty 40 A pressing warning from 19SP on the dangers of a narrow-minded and arrogant approach to new ideas by scientists, using the "Velikovsky affair" as an example - here in its first English publication. Malcolm Lowery: What's in a Name? Venus "The Newcomer" 46 An examination of Velikovsky's assertion that the name of the planet Venus means "The Newcomer" and thus reflects its postulated late birth.
