... Ramses II or III or Thutmose III etc. The more radical revisions seem to create more problems than solutions and although I am excited by some of Heinsohn's ideas (as an example) I have yet to be convinced.

... a secret message which, when broken, reveals the duration of magnetic reversals of the Sun' (p . 8). This is where it all gets complicated. It seems that Lord Pacal was also (in another life) Quetzalcoatl and stories from the tomb of Lord Pacal are the same as those in St John's Revelation in the Bible. What has all this got to do with Tutankhamun? He turns out to have been another reincarnation of supergod' Quetzalcoatl, so he and Lord Pacal were actually the same person/god .. . obvious, really. Then we go on to UFOs and Bruce Cathie's theory that the speed of light varies from place to place ...

577. What is Uniformitarianism and how did it get here? [Journals] [Horus]
... people who were increasingly confused, and to themselves as honest individuals laboring to establish the truth. Others wanted nothing less than to destroy once and for all the connection between science and religion. And those who were politically motivated wanted to bury forever the notion of the divine right of kings. If the scientific evidence denied the truth of the Bible, then it also denied any connection between God and the Monarchy, thus freeing Parliament and the people to redefine the political equations. So science, its methods and its scope, in the formative beginnings, was very much a creature of the times, unabashedly enlisted in the service of political causes by those who sought to affect political ...

... the seas lap towards the lower latitudes, and the atmosphere is similarly disarranged. After the conjunction things quickly regain their status quo. These minor flood catastrophes we may call the Conjunction Tides'. They have been taken notice of in a number of myths.
