... for a demonstrated consequence of Newtonian laws- the stability of the solar system- was something agonizingly different for Newton himself: viz., an absolutely essential premise for the argument from design, yet one for which he could never find adequate support. Hence, inter alia, his terrible falling-out with his former protégé, Whiston, who ascribed the Nochian deluge to the close approach of a huge comet! Anyway, that's all over now. The neo-Aristotelian age of Newton died as the space age came in. We can even date its demise specifically to 1962, when Mariner II confirmed the retrograde rotation of Venus. The new air is wonderfully exhilarating; but also chilling. Of course, ...
322. The Meaning Of The Name (The Atlantis Myth) [Books]
... The final syllable, `is', is a suffix with, probably, also a locative sense. Plato's word is not the only echo of the name of the lost land. Both on the eastern and on the western shore of the Atlantic Ocean we find a number of significantly assonant names. A Mexican myth tells us that the deluge hero Coxcox called the place where he landed `Antlan', evidently in order to perpetuate the name of his lost homeland. The Aztecs professed that they came originally from a mountainous, pyramid-adorned island in the east which they called Atzlan'. An ancient town of `Atlan' once existed on the Gulf of Uraba, in Darien ...
323. Palaeo-Egypt (The Atlantis Myth) [Books]
... strip of densely populated, exceedingly fertile land on both banks of the great River Nile, or Triton, as it was, perhaps, then called," and the Palaeo-Egyptians were little if at all interested in building up their main culture on or near their shores of the Levantine Sea. Hence, while Grecia suffered very greatly from the deluge spates which swept over much of its territory and engulfed wide regions when the Mediterranean was formed, Palaeo-Egypt suffered only very little, as only its northern Levantine seaboard was submerged. The diluvial waters probably never penetrated far up into Egypt proper, that is, into the Nile valley. The overspill from the waters which had swelled eastward between ...
324. Letters to the Editor C&AH 3:2 [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... time frame. It will then be unnecessary to move the battle of Carchemish of Necho/Ramses II, and all that goes with it, out of its well-established biblical chronology. Consider too that the expression "before the flood" in Mesopotamian texts- e.g . king lists- may refer to the Venus catastrophe rather than Noah's Deluge. Assuming (1 ) that the actualistic Assyro-Babylonian chronology errs methodologically as well as in fact, and (2 ) that Velikovsky's independent proofs5- the technology arguments- of profound misalignment in the Near East (additionally distorted by links to the Egyptological Sothic scheme), there is indeed complete historiographic chaos. We would do well to reconstruct ...

326. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... referenced a small alabaster face of Khafre, the pharaoh thought to have had the sphinx carved as part of his funerary complex. Meanwhile West, an independent Egyptologist', who believes the sphinx is much older than is generally accepted, having been carved at the end of the last ice age by an advanced civilisation later wiped out in the Deluge, has been involved with Schoch, a geologist, who has probed the structure of the rocks with special seismic techniques and declares that weathering patterns confirm that the sphinx is thousands of years older than thought. However, another geologist declares that Weathering is an area of geology which is not very accurate. ' Gauri believes the results can ...
327. Comets & Disasters in the Dark Ages [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... lasted until the ninth hour, when they disappeared. 869. In the month of February peals of thunder were heard from the dark waters in the clouds of the air, and on 15 September, that is, the holy night of Septuagesima, a comet was seen in the north-west, followed immediately by very strong winds and an enormous deluge of water, in which very many were caught unawares and perished. And then in the summer a very severe famine ensued in many provinces, but above all in Burgundy and Gaul, in which a large number of people suffered an untimely death, so that some people are said to have eaten human corpses, while others are supposed ...
328. Are the Moon's Scars Only 3000 Years Old? [Journals] [Pensee]
... most probably convert into carbides or carbonates. It is quite probable that chlorine, sulphur and iron in various compounds, possibly [oxidized, will be found richly presented in lunar formations. In my understanding, less than 10,000 years ago, together with the Earth, the moon went through a cosmic cloud of water] (the Deluge) and subsequently was covered for several centuries by water, which dissociated under the ultra-violet rays of the sun, with hydrogen escaping into space. I maintain that- although not already at the first landing- an excessively strong radioactivity will be detected in localized areas, in those among the crater formations that resulted, I contend, from interplanetary discharges ...
... to the surrounding strata where they were deposited. * " Great Ice Age," pp.6 ,7 ,9 , 21. 163. It was previously mentioned, in regard to meteors, that Geikie traced some phenomenal results dating from the Tertiary Age, and there are the strongest reasons for the belief that the basaltic flow which deluged an area of so many thousands of square miles (14) was also simultaneously accompanied by this phenomenon of the till and boulder clay. It is highly probable also that the same period, if not event, was largely responsible for ourcoalfields, and for the presence of amber, and thus the Drift Period remains an epoch whose devastating ...
... not the same as the light emitted by the sun, the moon, and the stars, which appeared only on the fourth day. The light of the first day was of a sort that would have enabled man to see the world at a glance from one end to the other. Anticipating the wickedness of the sinful generations of the deluge and the Tower of Babel, who were unworthy to enjoy the blessing of such light, God concealed it, but in the world to come it will appear to the pious in all its pristine glory.[19] Several heavens were created,[20] seven in fact,[21] each to serve a purpose of ...
