... man from its present scientific, cyclical world view and places it in an apocalyptic cosmos. This is only a shift in perspective. The spadework, and most of the superstructure, have been done long ago at the formation of the world religions, as Velikovsky argues so convincingly. I will present evidence that the New World Hopis built their cosmology on catastrophism. For a present-day example, the authors of the Whole Earth Catalogue illustrate a prototype gestalt which lives with a consciousness of catastrophe. The pioneering effort in this paper lies in appreciating Velikovsky's contribution to an existing paradigm of catastrophism. My theologian friend, David Arnott, the Vicar of Roundshaw in London, England, read Velikovsky's ...
... and became islands. The Amritamanthana survived also in Greece, in the beginning of Iliad 8, and in the myth of Plato's Statesman, and Plutarch spotted it in Egypt: but this subject would make another book. The relevant point was, here, to place figures as Mundilfoeri, or some surviving Lama, or Vishnu Cakravartin On the cosmological stage, where their modes of "creation" make sense. Appendix 15 As concerns the removing of the Pole star, the most drastic version is told by the Lapps: When Arcturus (alpha Bootis, supposed to be an archer, Ursa Major being his bow) shoots down the North Nail with his arrow on the last day ...

The problem is really a two-fold one: Why was Tiahuanaco built in that region? And why was its site just ...
105. Book Shelf [Journals] [Aeon]
... essentially an expansion of a two-part article that had originally appeared in AEON, (1 ) Donald Patten and Samuel Windsor take on the daunting task, which has so far defeated astronomers and physicists, to devise a coherent story, or cosmogony, of the formation of our Solar System. They use the metaphor of building a new 70 storey cosmological edifice (their term) on the site of the current one. They begin by undertaking the not-too-difficult task of demolishing the current ramshackle uniformitarian cosmogony by underlining its inability to explain the formation of planets, their surface features and composition, the capture of moons, distribution of angular momentum, axial tilts, spin rates, and so on ...
106. The Recent Organization of The Solar System [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Pacific Meridian Publishing Company, 13540 39th Avenue N.E ., Seattle, Washington 98125) Donald Patten and Samuel Windsor have written numerous essays and several books on various aspects of the history of the Solar System. This is the first of a series of four (or possibly six) outlining what they describe as a 70-Story Skyscraper of Cosmology' - their own version of the history and development of the Solar System. Central to this is the idea that rather than being formed out of a cloud of matter around the Sun, the planets (Earth included) originally orbited elsewhere in space and were brought close to the Sun by a body they call Little Brother. The ...
107. Reviewing Velikovsky'S Venus And Mars Theories [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... billion miles out, and a fourth (Neptune) three billion miles out. Some scientists, while they have criticized Velikovsky, have supported the notion that Jupiter suddenly appeared, with some 1,565 units of magically appearing energy to only 909 for Saturn. And 279 units for Uranus compared to 517 of Neptune. This is 20th century cosmology? Interestingly, within 4 percent, Jupiter and Saturn have twin spin rates. The Earth and Mars have twin spin rates. And Neptune and Uranus have twin spin rates. Among proponents of the nebular hypothesis, these magical appearances, twin spin rates three times, also are not even discussed. So whose paradigm requires the most magic ...

From "Stargazers and Gravediggers" © 1983 by Immanuel Velikovsky | FULL TEXT NOT AVAILABLE Contents One Who Read And One Who Didn't Two DAYS LATER, on April 15, 1946, I wrote Shapley a few lines: "In accordance with our conversation of April 13th, when you kindly agreed to test some of the conclusions of my historical cosmology, I offer the following implication of my theory for testing: The atmosphere of the planet Mars consists mainly of argon and neon." Two days later, on April 17, I wrote again asking for another test: "May I offer another test which bears directly upon my reconstruction of historical cosmology? It is my conclusion that ...

... the late king and his successor; these kings are those gods .. .Better than any other feature of Egyptian kingship, it shows that the monarchy was conceived as a reality in the world of the gods no less than in the world of men. It is for this reason that we find a theory of kingship implied in a cosmological text." (25) [Paragraphing altered.] It would appear that "the actual occupancy of the throne create[d ] a fusion of the powers of the late king and his successors." (26) Since all the Pharaohs of Egypt claimed descent from the same divine father, Re (and his various forms ...

... is editor of Thoth, an Internet journal deriving from the Kronia discussion list. She shares the writing of editorials with her husband Mel. Kronia.com features the work of Dave Talbott, Ev Cochrane, Wal Thornhill and Dwardu Cardona. Her major interest at present is the work of Halton Arp, who has knocked the current dogma of cosmology right out of the ring'. He is both radical and right and his ideas fit with the Electric Universe' scenario. The whole of extra-galactic cosmology is based on the Hubble's assumption that redshift can only be caused by recessional velocity. (She handed out a copy of her talk - 6 pages with a diagram of a galactic ...
