... Ponce de Leon upon entering the Florida swamps. According to the dogma of isolationism, Old World diseases were unknown in the New World until after the arrival of Columbus. The net result of all this historical revision that took place in the 17th through the 19th centuries was the impression that all the evidence from history, linguistics, botany, biology, and epidemiology supported the paradigm of New World isolation prior to Columbus. This erroneous paradigm led to further distortions of reality: Old World artifacts found in New World archaeological sites dating centuries before Columbus were routinely ignored or branded as fakes. Orthodox scholars accepted the paradigm as it had been revised by their predecessors as though it were the ...

... the cherished arguments that were much used in the past and also used even more recently against my work. In this itself is a measure of victory. MULHOLLAND Two astronomers confronted me on the panel: Professor J. Derral Mulholland, whose field is celestial mechanics, and Professor Sagan, whose field is planetary atmospheres, rock compositions, and biological conditions. Mulholland said: .. . the celestial mechanics of Newton and Newcomb are no longer the ultimate measure. The celestial mechanics of 1974 is a living, vital science that admits of non-gravitational effects, of electromagnetic interactions.... This is a retreat of unprecedented significance. My opponents of the 1950's would not permit the ...

... fossils, demonstrating (where they occur) the virtual simultaneity of the deposition which buried them, reflect on the age of the Earth as inferred by uniformitarian geology. So-called living fossils', creatures which have persisted essentially unchanged through the fossil record right up to the present day, reflect on the age of the Earth as inferred by evolutionist biology. A well-known example is the coelacanth. After an unchanging existence of 300 million years the fish was thought to have become extinct some 65 million years ago, until it was netted in 1938 off the coast of Madagascar [27]. Examination of its soft parts also put paid to the idea that it had features transitional between fish ...

... here), although not so commonly by more recent (so-called orthodox') authors, who generally admit to the one-time reality of the latter but firmly refute involvement of the former. Such attitudes stem psychologically from the frequent contemporary preoccupation with accounting for the phenomenon of Siberia's frozen mammoth and rhinoceros cadavers without adequate reference to the varied and discordant biological evidence found in association with them [15]. The facts enumerated above, and others scattered elsewhere in numerous specialised publications of repute, amply confirm that Siberia's field evidence offers no rational explanation of these burials' that denies the involvement of water-action on a grand scale. But to have congregated so varied a range of organic remains within ...

... our own century, the Tunguska meteor impact was caused by a volatile body whose pre-impact orbit was consistent with its having been a piece of Comet Encke. Comets have been observed falling into the Sun as well, as recently as 1979. The frequency with which comets and large meteors have impacted the Earth is an important question for theories of biological evolution and perhaps human psychosocial development. Historically, people have feared comets intensely. What reason, dim in human history, is responsible for this seemingly irrational response? This space-probe photograph of Halley's comet was taken on March 14, 1986 at 00:06 UTC from a distance of about 18,000 km. the Sun illuminates the ...

Hitler the Prophet would have seen it as his divine mission (he being sent to Germany by Heaven, as most Germans fervently believed) to make the world ready for the coming Upheaval. Biologically, he would have had to practice a form of ruthless racial eugenics in which he would enslave the impure', inferior' (and therefore undeserving) half-breed races such as Russians or Poles and exterminate the non-human' or anti-human' races such as the Jews who contaminate the world on behalf of their master the Devil.

In the transcript, Richard Neave (University of Manchester) says the skull of Luzia shows a Negroid face'; Walter Neves, Prof. of Biological Anthropology at the Univ. of Sao Paulo, says the skulls are very similar to modern aborigines and Africans'. The narrator then introduces a non sequitur by asking, But how could Luzia be African and Australian' ? (my emphasis). The obvious reply is she couldn't [7 ], and Prof. Neves did not ...

528. Thoth Vol IV, No 9: May 31, 2000 [Journals] [Thoth]
... intervening decades various innovators began to investigate catastrophic possibilities previously ignored. One of the milestones in this trend was the hypothesis of Leo and Walter Alvarez, claiming dinosaur extinction by asteroidal impact. While the initial response of official science was ridicule, over time the hypothesis began to gain general acceptance within the scientific community. Soon thereafter, the respected biologist Stephen Jay Gould acknowledged the occasional catastrophe in a theory of "punctuated equilibrium." And the British astronomers Victor Clube and William Napier opened the door even further by postulating cometary or asteroidal disasters so recent as to have inspired vivid human stories (myths) of these events. Then several other astronomers, astrophysicists, and geologists added support ...

... The Egyptian counterpart was the raging Uraeus serpent; or Apep, the dragon of darkness. For the Greeks, it was the Python serpent whom Apollo defeated in an earth-shaking encounter, or the great dragon Typhon, under whose attack the heavens reeled. How did it happen that so many diverse cultures recalled- in such vivid and similar terms- a biologically impossible monster? The cosmic serpent or dragon cries out for an explanation, and an explanation must be possible, even if we have missed it. From one land to another such monsters were celebrated as visible forms in the sky. If there is an inherent, irrational tendency of the primitive mind to conjure dragon-like beasts out of nothing ...

... not actually state that Euglenia sanguinea and Haematococcus pluvialis are present in Lake Tana today but if they are not, this part of her thesis would be groundless speculation. If they are present, one wonders why they do not breed so as to destroy the fish stocks of the lake. However, let us assume that there is a good biological/zoological reason why this does not happen (L . Tana is noted for its fish). Perhaps Dr. Gessner's Hydrobotanik could shed light upon both of the above assumptions. We have then to explain why no extreme flood that has occurred since the time of the Plagues has generated a similar record of effects in Egypt. Red-brown ...
