... an important, more minor constituent, in this mixture: if you drop this mixture in water, or in a dilute acid, you make amino acids-the building blocks of protein. And these are made in exceptionally high yield. "In such experiments we have made something like 40 amino acids, 40 different kinds of amino acids. In biology there are only 20 that are used. We've made some of the sulfur-containing amino acids. The point is, that this is an extremely efficient way to make the building blocks of life. There is nothing significantly different in these experiments than exists in the atmosphere of Jupiter, or Saturn, or Uranus, or Neptune, or the ...

204. Chaos and Creation by Alfred de Grazia [Books] [de Grazia books]
... the body of scholars, the human mind today is moving into an area "where the action is". For perhaps no more exciting and important a set of problems is to be found anywhere in the realms of science and scholarship. Every discipline is implicated in the theory of ancient catastrophes - psychology, sociology, linguistics, archaeology, biology, physics, chemistry, astronomy, and geology, together with their many subdivisions down to special and new sciences, such as plasma physics, dendrochronology, and mega-vitamin therapy [1 ]. It has something to say about "the Jupiter Effect," "the Ion Effect," and "the Bermuda Triangle," not to ...

... differences with these theorists. Freud had struggled throughout his career to discover a theoretically suitable source for the collective dynamics of the unconscious mind. Unable to account for them adequately in his patients' personal histories, Freud reasoned that present-day humanity had inherited a complex of impulses and emotions stemming from the behavior of our uncivilized, primeval ancestors Driven by biological sex instincts, and within a hypothetical early social order (the "primal horde"), acts of parricide and incest became the commonplace means by which a younger generation of sexually mature males succeeded their progenitor. Intense motives, emotions, and conflicts associated with these events became an inherited, unconscious racial complex - a race memory of ...
206. Bookshelf [Journals] [SIS Review]
... is recommended as a popular account of the subject. GROWTH RHYTHMS AND THE HISTORY OF THE EARTH'S ROTATION edited by G. D. Rosenberg and S. K. Runcorn Wiley 1975. Using the history of the Earth's rotation as a unifying theme, the editors present a collection of papers spanning various aspects of geophysics, astronomy, palaeontology and biology which survey methods of measuring the Earth's rotation, past and present. The direct techniques comprise biological growth increment measurement and ancient and modern astronomical observations, while the indirect methods involve theoretical calculations based on geophysical assumptions such as tidal friction, planetary expansion, decay of gravity and convection within the Earth. A useful - and interdisciplinary - handbook ...

... presence of a solar capacitor. The first proposes a new source of red-shift in photons leaving a central star (the "Induced Electric Dipole Red-Shift" - IEDRS). Numerous in-lab experiments exist which can prove its validity. The other is the source of magnetic dynamos in stars and planets (and also magnetic reversals). Discussed briefly are biological evolution and the "Collective Fear of Velikovsky" that has permeated the scientific community for the past 35 years. V. THE INDUCED ELECTRIC DIPOLE RED-SHIFT (IEDRS) The search for an alternative cause of red-shifted photons in stellar spectral lines is not new. Many investigators have noted(1 ) that certain red-shift data are not explained by ...

... as different acts of a god not exclusively destructive. It is meaningless to hypothesize ". .. reality was reversed and .. . destruction .. . transmogrified into a credo of genetic Creation" (Ibid., p. 49) if the credo was based on man's witness to and participation in an actual process of celestial and biological creation! In this context the myth is a record; subsequent elaboration does not vitiate its essence. People may repress terrifying memories of catastrophes and in later generations lose the ability to understand the past; however, we must establish what components of myth have been ". .. manufactured .. ."

210. Karl Popper and Evolutionary Theory (Vox Populi) [Journals] [Kronos]
... p. 1. Editor's Comment: Mr. Thompson's remarks are thoughtful, but they require two points of clarification: 1) R. H. Brady's point, endorsed by both Bethell and Macbeth, seems to have been overlooked. Natural selection is not tautological in principle, although it is so in practice because of the immense complexity of biological systems. See KRONOS VII:4 , p. 5. 2) While Karl Popper was quoted accurately, he has since altered his position. In the 17 July 1980 New Scientist, p. 215, Popper was quoted from his autobiography Unended Quest: "It is therefore important to show that Darwinism is not a scientific theory ...
