... ] individually [and] collectively paradisiacal, he believes, was the fact that youngsters were nursed and gratified not only throughout infancy but [also] throughout early childhood. Here the author's views recall those of orgonomist Wilhelm Reich, whose Infant Trust Fund was set up in the hope and expectation that deeply satisfied children would not become repressive or destructive adults.(5 ) Treviņo's thesis attracts by its very audacity. Predictably, however, it has weaknesses. Some of these are relatively mechanical, such as the lack of an index in his book and the frustrating reference (on page 127) to Chapter 4, section 6- a section which is not in the book! But ...
842. Early History of the Israelite People: Biblical Fundamentalism in History (II) [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... I also had to restore the Amarna correspondence to its evidence-based chronological position. The partners of the Medes (Mitanni) in Akhet-Aton were dated to the early Medean -6th century. (10) The dramatic shift from Middle to Late Bronze has all the ingredients of the Exodus event, reaching from natural catastrophes hitting the Hyksos to military and non-military destructions in Israel. As an adherent to biblical fundamentalism and pseudoastronomy, A. Mazar dates that shift to around -1550 and, therefore, cannot not match it to a fundamentalistically-dated Exodus: The most significant event concerning Palestine was the expulsion of the Hyksos from Egypt in the [mid-16th] century BCE. The Hyksos princes fled from the eastern ...

844. Arctic Tundra Mammoth Steppe Or Velikovskian Poleshift? [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... Even if the herbivores did somehow manage to eat this flora and survive, the flora could not survive this foraging. The nutrient value of tundra flora is extraordinarily poor and would have led to deficiency diseases or death to the grazers, or the grazers would have had to eat much more of it to live, which would have hastened the destruction of the food source. Those who hold the view that tundra vegetation would support the mammoth and all the various other megafauna herbivores are simply being irrational. Several authorities cited above all say tundra will not support ancient mammal populations. As pointed out above, Charles Lyell posited the idea that mammoths could migrate from the Siberian tundra to escape ...
845. Paradise And Disaster In T. S. Eliot'S "four Quartets" [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... a golden age. The antistrophes, horrific in tone and epic in style, depict disruption, sudden and unwelcome. A graphic antistrophic passage, recalling the Classical tradition of theomachy, is this: Deployed in constellated ward . . . the Sun and Moon go down . . . Whirled in a vortex that shall bring The world to that destructive fire Which burns before the ice-cap reigns. Eliot, however, is nothing if not complex. The observant reader quickly notes that the two-way opposition between paradise and disaster in the Quartets fails to account for the totality of its discourse. In addition to paradisiacal strophes and catastrophic antistrophes, the opus contains what we might call metastrophes, or ...
846. Chain Reactions - A Victory For Mars [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... participants onto a new orbit that does threaten that third planet. One near-collision thus sets the stage for the next. Presumably, there will be long sequences of near-collisions, lasting for aeons. THE END OF THE ERA OF PLANETARY NEAR-COLLISIONS How could such a sequence end? One way is a direct hit, whether that results in a mutual destruction or in a merger. Both of these are somewhat unlikely, if only because they involve direct hits on tiny targets. The most likely way for the sequence to end is for one of the participants in a near-collision to be thrown, not onto a new elliptical orbit that is more-or-less typical of the others that have been occurring, ...

... are affected. Public arrangements are upset. Not only, indeed, are agriculturists and producers of almost all commodities hit hard by incessant bad weather but the whole life of the community is thrown out of gear. As these words are being penned great areas in the Thames valley and elsewhere are flooded, and the actual loss in damage and destruction is enormous. Any question of meteorological conditions is one therefore which affects one and all of us intimately, directly and indirectly, our healths and our pockets. In regard to the weather another observation is to be made. The commercial centre of the world and the seat of the greatest population amongst the white races is on either side ...
848. Bringing Light to a Dark Age [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... Empire saw the emergence from its ruins of a number of regional powers. Amongst these were the 18th Dynasty of Egypt, the Mitanni (Medish) Empire, and the Hittite (Lydian) Empire. Alongside these newly emergent states the present writer also places the Hebrew monarchies, whose early kings, Saul and David, actually participated in the destruction of Hyksos/Assyrian power in Palestine and Syria. Thus we hold broadly by the chronology outlined by Immanuel Velikovsky in Ages in Chaos (1952), except that we would place the events described in the above volume in the 7th century BC, not the 9th and 10th, as Velikovsky did. In accordance with this scheme of ...
... filled with red coagulated blood, the Rev. D. Gath Whitney maintained that this discovery and others like it "are opposed to all our notions of natural history." The rhino, he contended, was drowned and preserved in the ice which immediately formed. There is a hitherto unexplained mystery to account for this presence of and sudden destruction of a great mammal belonging to a tropical climate. He says We must remember that this extinction took place in comparatively recent times and that the animal disappeared from North Asia long after the appearance of man on the earth. We are face to face, then, with a mystery, and it is clear the extinction of the rhinoceros ...
850. Chapter 12 Pottery Dating and the Sumerians [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... C . are followed by pottery and artefacts above them or correlated with them that date from 2000 to 1200 B.C . It is obvious that materials dated from 1200 to 600 B.C . cannot be followed by civilizations that are dated from 2000 to 1200 B.C . The depth of contradiction to the established chronology is clearly destructive of that chronology. Yet this is exactly how historians and archaeologists have organized the pottery to fit into their Procrustean chronological bed. 2 ibid., pp. 216-217 302 VELIKOVSKIAN Vol. VI, Nos. 1, 2, 3 Historian Richard J. Evans of Cambridge University discusses this form of analysis: "What is a historical ...
