... 1 (Winter 1987) Home | Issue Contents An Extraordinary New Book! Origins- Today's Science, Tomorrow's Myth - by James E. StrickIing, Jr. An Objective Study of Creationism, Evolution, and Catastrophism A uniquely objective evaluation of both of the major contenders in the creation-evolution controversy. In addition to an examination of the major fallacies of Darwinism, the book details an unprecedented critique of the Creationist position, with an alternative sought within a catastrophist framework. Intriguing investigative studies with respect to certain origins and "nonorigins' within various disciplines are also included- both natural and cultural. Among these, "The Tower of Babel and the Catastrophic Nonorigin of Language Diversity." "James Strickling ...
172. Forum [Journals] [SIS Review]
... ); from the fact that Einstein "was taken with the ideas of both these men", he concludes that "even genius must be suspect outside its own field" (p . 159). I did not become interested in Velikovsky through reading Leveson. The second time I read about Velikovsky was in 1973, in Norman MacBeth's Darwin Retried (1971: Dell, New York). He writes that when Velikovsky was attacked because in Worlds in Collision he had violated uniformitarian principles, "his response was admirable; . . . he disappeared into the library for several years. . . he marshalled the original field reports on a large number of phenomena that point inexorably ...
173. Bookshelf [Journals] [SIS Review]
... ERIC CREW There was a brief mention of this book in S.I .S . Newsletter 2 (Sept. 1975) but I did not read it before The Reversing Earth by Peter Warlow. It came as a revelation and is truly described in the Introduction as an Earth-shaking book. It was written when most scientists followed Lyell and Darwin in their belief in uniformitarianism, mainly because this represented a liberation from the prevalent irrational style of religious teaching. It is extraordinary that this belief is still firmly held by many scientists today, although Gallant's book alone gives convincing evidence to the contrary, including calculations on the deflection of the Earth's axis and rate of spin due to impacts ...

176. Perilous Planet Earth: Catastrophes and Catastrophism Through the Ages by Trevor Palmer. [Journals] [SIS Review]
... between the religious scientists, who accepted that the Earth and man's history was moulded by catastrophes brought about by the will of God, and the newer approach that was based on the idea that all changes take place slowly by mechanisms observably now. In geology this gradualism' approach is normally credited to Lyell and in biology it is credited to Darwin. Whilst giving full credit to their achievements, Palmer brings out the intensity of the debate and the contributions made by many scientists on both sides. To have gathered all this information in one book is a major achievement. There were, for me, many surprises. To give but one, Lyell was a creationist! On page ...
177. Predicting the Past [Journals] [Aeon]
... deeply traumatized all of humankind? Did early human societies develop gradually in uneventful natural surroundings, moving incrementally from savagery to civilization? Or did horrific cataclysms forcibly conclude a long period of primitive harmony and precipitate our "fall" into history? Most scholars during the past century-and-a-half have regarded these questions as settled once and for all. Ever since Darwin, the great majority of historians, anthropologists, and geologists have assumed that the doctrine of gradual evolution was proven beyond need for further discussion. Today, the tide has turned somewhat. Now school children are taught that the extinction of the dinosaurs was due to the crashing to Earth of a comet or an asteroid sixty million years ago ...
178. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... From: SIS Chronology and Catastrophism Workshop 2005:1 (February 2005) Home | Issue Contents Monitor INSIDE SCIENCE In June 1996, one of the leading publishers of scientific essays in the USA, Commentary, printed an article by David Berlinski, a well-known anti-evolutionist but respected scientist. The Deniable Darwin' presented a well-argued case against neo-Darwinism, while at the same time making it clear that Berlinski is not a creationist. The article naturally provoked a fierce response from both creationists and doctrinaire evolutionists such as Richard Dawkins; the latter's main line of attack was to sarcastically accuse Berlinski of being a creationist! Such tactics are reminiscent of those used against Velikovsky when he dared to present ...
179. On the Possibility of Instantaneous Shifts of the Poles [Journals] [Aeon]
... situation of the Earth was coherent with a different position of the poles. The hypothesis that the inclination of the terrestrial axis in relation to the ecliptic and that the position of the poles might change has been taken into consideration since last century. Some of the greatest geologists of the time, including J.C .Maxwell and Sir George Darwin (son of the famous Charles Darwin), considered this problem and decided that the stabilising effect of the equatorial bulge was so great that no conceivable force originating within the Earth could make it shifting on its axis, except for the collision with another planet. They therefore dismissed the idea of any shift of the poles as impossible and ...
