... a thief in the night... the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up." Jesus prophesied the end of the world in his days, and when it did not come and he died on the cross he was expected to return in the days of the apostles. And why were they "looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new ...
382. Conclusion: Entropy [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... in the magnetic field of the Sun. Although there is a repulsion involved, based on this theory, it is also known that the Sun's magnetic field sweeps not only outward, but turns with the Sun. Planet's imbedded in that field are moving in the direction that the solar magnetosphere is revolving, but Pioneer 10 is like a boat crossing a river and riding not with the magnetic current, but across it. The spacecraft also has generated a tiny magnetic field and that field is encountering the revolving, resisting solar field. Thus, over time, it has begun to slow it down. The fact of the matter is that Pioneer 10's behavior is not unique. Seife ...
383. Mapping Bombastic Evasion, Denial And Subterfuge [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... were professional cartographers with years of experience in making maps. But what is most interesting is Mewhinney's casual denial, and evasion of a most fundamental piece of evidence presented by Mallery who wrote: "The Greenland depicted differs from the Greenland known to the modern world. The land surface is shown free of ice, almost covered by mountains, crossed by open rivers and divided into three islands. "Sooner than I would have thought possible, confirmation of my analysis of the map (at least the portion showing Greenland) came from an authority in the science of determining sub-glacial topography by seismic soundings. The authority was Paul Emile Victor, whose French Polar expedition explored Greenland from 1948 ...
384. Trails Over the Sea. Part 2 (Oedipus and Akhnaton) [Velikovsky]
... descendants."15 Yet Gladstone did not think, in this connection, of the Theban cycle of legends and of the Oedipus drama; he scrutinized many legendary heroes, but the name of Oedipus and his wife and children are not even mentioned in the book. He apparently thought of them as Greek. The transformation the events underwent in crossing the Mediterranean and acquiring the guise of a legend was accompanied by the introduction of a new, characteristically Hellenic element. The Greeks believed in fate; for them the future was predestined, and if the gods decreed doom for a man and his house, nothing could be done to change it. Whatever a person did, however much ...
385. The Seer of Our Time. Part 2 (Oedipus and Akhnaton) [Velikovsky]
... and acquisition of a female body. The man turned his aggression on himself and effeminated all his being. It has been observed by several authors that a number of statues of Akhnaton are feminine in form and it is thought that he induced his sculptors to stress the feminine traits when portraying him.9 Were it possible for King Akhnaton to cross the time barrier and lie down on an analyst's couch, the analysis would at an early stage reveal autistic or narcissistic traits, a homosexual tendency, with sadism suppressed and feminine traits coming to the fore, and a strong unsuppressed Oedipus complex. The proper treatment of this historical Oedipus would not start by breaking down the Oedipus complex but ...
386. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... J. Cintala points out that most short-period comets pass through the asteroid belt and that their nuclei ought to accumulate meteoroids as a result of collisions with the debris of asteroids in these regions. In the later devolatilization of the comet nucleus these meteoroids might be shed, and there is a likelihood that some of them would be shed into orbits crossing that of Earth. This at first sight might appear to be yet another neo-catastrophist doomsday theory, but it has possibilities within a Velikovskian scenario, in explaining why meteorite falls were associated with the advent of the Venus-comet. - NATURE 14/5 /81, p. 134-6 Jupiter, Failed star .. . with Weather!P ...
387. Letters [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... was once a satellite of Saturn, Titan must have been the second most impressive object in the sky after Saturn (or perhaps third after Saturn and the Sun). One would therefore assume that it appears in mythology. Yet, except possibly "the eye of God", which has been suggested to be the shadow of the Earth crossing the disk of Saturn, but may be the night side of Titan passing between the Earth and Saturn, I find nothing in mythology which really seems to fit Titan. Are all sightings now lost (or transferred to planets now more noticeable) or has someone detected the presence of Titan in mythology concerning the Saturnian golden age? - ...
388. Thoth Vol II, No. 11: June 30, 1998 [Journals] [Thoth]
... the early 1970s that Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) are regularly thrown out into space by the Sun. These huge clouds of gas consist of electrically charged particles (protons and electrons) and have a typical mass of hundreds of millions of tonnes. In some cases they are directed towards the Earth and they travel so rapidly that they usually cross the 150 million km gap within three days of their launch from the Sun. Scientists would very much like to be able to forecast these events since, on arrival, they interact with the Earth's magnetic field, producing geomagnetic disturbances which can disrupt electricity supplies and cause damage to satellites. In addition, understanding how CMEs are produced is ...

... years ago, could attain a circular orbit after spiralling in towards the Sun. Such circularisation of orbit, while at the same time losing charge from Cosbod, could happen over the very rapid astronomical time of a few thousand years and in the process there was a considerable chance of Cosbod being involved in near misses with other planets as it crossed their orbits. It was refreshing to know that computer programmes can produce catastrophic scenarios as well as the uniformitarian extrapolations to which we are usually subjected. Eric Crew was followed by Wal Thornhill who gave us a detailed and fascinating introduction to the structure of meteorites. These pieces of space debris are avidly analyzed by astronomers seeking to build up ...
390. The Domestication of the Human Species [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Kung, as a result of their need to be at all times visible to each other, take on the form of concentric circles, which Wilson prefers to think of as an unintentional source of imagery, sooner than a demonstration of some basic human subconscious symbol; the symbols of the circle with central spot, concentric circles and circle with cross only appear in domesticated cultures. Wilson suggests that from the original importance of the central hearth, the house became a symbol for the ancestors, requiring a permanent building to protect, expanding to the sacred boundary around the garden plots and eventually the fields. Once settled, society adopts regular routines and the learning by imitation of the hunter-gatherer ...
