... interactions ever occurred' (p . 181). In other words, when it comes to physical explanations, the hard work is all still to be done. The problem gets worse when we get into the author's theories about other related matters, where again and again simple assertion is seen as being enough to make the his case. Atlantis? It was on Mars (p . 147). The Griffin? It was the semi-ejected liquid core of Mars (p . 149). What were Adam, Cain and Able, mythical creatures from Indra's elephant Airavata to Vishnu's Garuda, the vulture which tore at the flesh of Prometheus, to Ezekiel's creature with four heads or ...

... propriety and responsibility. It will not do to present one's work as if it were the first' or an original' or academically proper', leaving earlier workers in the role of unmentionables'. We are just as legitimate. In the case of the present author [Professor Lewis Greenberg] my own contributions on the Papyrus Ipuwer and Atlantis in Pensée and my note on Thera in Kronos are but a mere sampling of what I am referring to. ' Two final points on chronologies. We must go from history to catastrophe, not from catastrophe to history. Some chronologists take the catastrophes, Velikovsky's catastrophes, as assumptions and argue from there. I have always been convinced ...
204. Perilous Planet Earth: Catastrophes and Catastrophism Through the Ages by Trevor Palmer. [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Age catastrophes including, on page 120, a superb summary of the conclusions of Schaeffer. The chapter concludes with a description of how the ideas of Clube and Napier in astronomy and Heinsohn, James, Rohl and Sweeney in ancient history displaced the original theories of Velikovsky even among most of his erstwhile supporters. Chapter 13 treats the proposals about Atlantis in a similar way. The old catastrophists had always argued that mass extinctions and sudden shifts in stratigraphy implied that not all change could be benign and gentle. But how sudden was sudden? 100,000 years ago was nothing to a gradualist, but an immense length of time to a catastrophist. New ideas of supernova and the ...

Her published works include children's fiction and articles on midwifery, child-raising, and home-schooling. More recent works by her dealing with catastrophism and astronomy have appeared in Atlantis Rising and AEON.

She is presently the editor of THOTH, the electronic newsletter sponsored by KRONIA Communications. Dwardu Cardona has been a free-lance writer since 1968.

Straka claims not to know any such phenomena, but then he does not claim to have read Earth in Upheaval Neither is he familiar with Worlds in Collision, since after three alleged readings he asks why Velikovsky omits mentioning Atlantis. NASA did not print its report on the Mariner II mission by gleaning from newspaper accounts.

... the redactors of KADATH have developed a third way of research, characterized by a total independence of mind as well towards a certain conservative reductionism emanating from the Establishment, as best selling archaeomania. Since its creation, KADATH has approached most of the true mysteries of our past, and this often in an original manner e.g .: Atlantis, Easter Island, Precolumbian America, Egypt, Ancient Europe, Asia, sacred texts, traditions, mythology, scientific knowledge in Antiquity, megalithism in the Old and the New World, archaeoastronomy, leys, sacred geometry, maps of ancient Sea Kings, transoceanic contacts, unexpected inscriptions and lost writings, mysterious ruins, strange artifacts and ...

... - quite literally. Beaumont could not accept that the Jews, whom he despised, were the central figures in the story of the Bible. The "original" lands of Palestine and Egypt lay in his own beloved Britain, the cradle of world civilization. Likewise, he transferred Assyria, Babylonia, Phoenicia, and Greece, along with Atlantis, to Northern Europe. But, of course, that was before a comet rearranged the landscape! [6 ] In the same way that a butterfly's wing can be mapped to an ink blot, one stretch of coastline can be mapped to another. Which is pretty much what Arlington Mallery and Charles Hapgood were doing. Mallery was ...

Graham Hancock: Fingerprints of the Gods - do ancient relicts point to an advanced civilisation 15,000 years ago? 49 Are the Sphinx, the Pyramids, artefacts in America, old maps and Plato's Atlantis all evidence of a great civilisation long ago, based in Antarctica? The SIS Conference at Braziers College, Ipsden, Oxfordshire, was planned as a tribute to Immanuel Velikovsky on the 100th anniversary of his birth. Benny Peiser had invited speakers on ancient history, ancient monuments and the scientific evidence for catastrophes in the Earth's recent history. ...
215. Ancient Knowledge of Jupiter's Bands and Saturn's Rings [Journals] [Kronos]
... of Jupiter and Saturn, and explicitly to Jupiter's "Saturnian sections and bonds." Taylor wondered at this coincidence of modern scientific observation and ancient theology, and inferred that such theology must be "no less scientific than sublime." Is there another explanation of the coincidence? One might postulate an ancient civilization of a type advanced beyond Plato's Atlantis, which would have been thoroughly devastated but whose telescopes would have been unmatched until the nineteenth century. Only so advanced a culture could produce and systematically employ such a telescope. Paleo-anthropology and archaeology, overseen by the sociology of invention, do not admit of a specific technology that far exceeds the general level of its culture. Then, ...
216. Focus [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Venus has an oxygen-rich atmosphere". (Surely it was that Velikovsky said if oxygen was present in the atmosphere of Venus it would be consumed in petroleum fires?) The truth, we are told, is that the Bible does report garbled reports of genuine disasters (the Santorini volcano is provided as the example here, linked with the Atlantis story and "some Biblical stories"). We are told that "the attempt by some scientists 30 years ago to suppress Velikovsky's book was disgraceful", that "the refusal to offer a reasoned response to Velikovsky has encouraged supporters who assume that science doesn't respond because science can't refute it." And we are asked to believe ...
217. Pot Pourri [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Joshua's Long Day – so what was Velikovsky's culprit for the Exodus event?] ' Someone who seems not to have read the text, surprisingly, is the usually reliable Professor Lord Renfrew. In the co-authoredArchaeology: Theories, Methods and Practice, [19] a mis-classification seems to have been made. Following a brief reference to Ignatius Donnelly's Atlantis theory in the section Archaeology at the Fringe', the following appears: The basic structure of Donnelly's argument was repeated with variants by Immanuel Velikovsky [emphasis added] (meteors [sic] and astronomical events) and recently by Graham Hancock. Such theories often share characteristics: They celebrate a remarkable lost world whose people possessed many skills ...

But Charles Hapgood's discovery of our shifting planet is perhaps more profound. If his data is correct, we've got to face some unsettling facts about our Earth's past and- and more importantly- our future. The "Shifting Poles Theory" was introduced by History Professor, Charles H. Hapgood, whose fascination with geography and ancient maps led ...

... with gay abandon all mysteries and geological events by the theory of the portal to another dimension being opened by impacting comets. The great fire of Chicago, the melted' rock hills at what he believes was Cibbola, Sodom and Gomorrah, the abandoned statues on Easter Island, the Earth's magnetism, electric storms, volcanism, Saturn's rings, Atlantis, Stonehenge, even fossils are explained away. In respect of the last named the theory is stretched to even more incredible dimensions with the suggestion that the seemingly impossible size of dinosaurs is due to the fossils being magnified as they entered our world. What started as a book with interesting possibilities unfortunately degenerates into a catalogue of the risible ...

What scraps of Earth history might be preserved in myth and legend? Has evidence for a worldwide flood been suppressed, deliberately or unconsciously.? Many millions of people accept Atlantis as a historical fact: must geologists tell them that they are hopelessly wrong? Is Velikovsky a charlatan or a genius, or both? The case for Ufo's has been reopened, this time by astronomers of repute: if aliens interact with mankind, what might be their role in Earth history? If telepathy and telekinesis occur, what ...

But then, as Galileo swooped past Jupiter's inner moon, Io, disaster struck. ...
