82. Controversy: Catastrophism and Evolution, The Ongoing Debate, by Trevor Palmer (Review) [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 2001:1 (Apr 2001) Home | Issue Contents Controversy: Catastrophism and Evolution, The Ongoing Debate by Trevor Palmer (Kluwer Academic/Plenum Publishers, New York, 1999, ISBN 0-306-45751-2, £55) Reviewed by Richard Huggett The aim of this book is to show how recent geological discoveries have shaken the tenets of neo-Darwinian evolutionary theory. The neo-Darwinian synthesis, which combines genetics with traditional Darwinism, sees evolution as a serenely slow, little-by-little process of natural selection. To neo-Darwinians, the results of natural selection - new forms - are imperceptible over short periods and display progressive characteristics that arise not from a preordained plan of linear ...

84. The Nature and Origin of Comets and the Evolution of Celestial Bodies (Part I) [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. IX No. 1 (Fall 1983) Home | Issue Contents The Nature and Origin of Comets and the Evolution of Celestial Bodies (Part I)J. M. McCANNEY Copyright (c ) 1981 & 1983 by J. M. McCanney ABSTRACT: This paper provides an alternate theory for comet behavior and shows comets to be planetary, lunar, and asteroidal bodies in their formative stages. It demonstrates that tail matter is attracted towards an asteroidal comet nucleus by strong electrical forces. Additionally, two charging mechanisms are identified, both of which produce a net negative charge on the comet nucleus. This is supported by data from recent space probes. ...

... in the past. Those forces are erosion, slow sedimentation, and volcanism. This principle still rules -geology today. Darwin added to it the principle of the survival of the fittest in the struggle for the daily beef steak and the best digs. This, too, remains a fundamental rule for our times. Is the theory of slow evolution or uniformity based on a really `scientific' approach? What do we really know of the `historical past' (the period for which we have written human records) and what does it represent compared with the length of geological time? At best, written records may refer to times dating as far back as 7,000 ...

... . The subsequent question session reinforced the impression of a powerful intellect tackling problems from a wide range of disciplines which could find their solution in catastrophism. Topics dealt with ranged from the formation of granites to the political ploys of the Roman Senate and only the intervention of lunch brought this stimulating discussion to an end. PROFESSOR CHANDRA WICKRAMASINGHE: "Evolution from Space - Interdisciplinary Evidence"The afternoon session was introduced and chaired by biologist Dr Trevor Palmer, and the speaker, Professor Wickramasinghe of University College Cardiff, turned the attention of the meeting to the ultimate interdisciplinary problem - the origin of life on Earth. Very rarely does it happen that a scientific argument is more convincing when presented ...

... of evidence, however, that was found to be disconcerting and difficult to explain away: - that excess iridium, osmium, etc.! NOT SCIENTIFIC - New Scientist , 17/7 /80, p. 215 Jill Abery writes to tell us of an article by Dr. Beverly Halstead, defending palaeontology and the concept of Darwinian evolution against the charge that the latter is not a scientific theory but a metaphysical one. This gave rise to a page of letters (31/7 /80 p.402). Halstead, representing one extreme of uniformitarian Darwinism, was alarmed at the boost given to those representing the other extreme of fundamentalist Creation by the inference that ...

... not react to or generate electromagnetic forces. But a plasma will. Most astronomers believe that electric forces do not operate across interplanetary and interstellar space. When they calculate the enormous energy required to separate positive charge from negative charge, they assume that positively and negatively charged particles are always and everywhere in perfect balance. So their models for the evolution of cosmic structure deal only with gravity. But precise electrical neutrality throughout the universe is not a fact, it's a precarious assumption. If the assumption is wrong, the electric force can hardly be ignored: it is much stronger and more versatile than gravity. Gravity has only one mode for organizing matter- that of attraction. The ...

... Home | Issue Contents Focus S.I .S . MEETINGS S.I .S . Spring Meeting, 1983 The Spring Meeting at the Library Association welcomed the Society's good friend Dr Alfred de Grazia, Research Professor of Social Theory at New York University, as its first speaker. Taking as his theme "Homo Schizo - the Catastrophic Evolution of Man", de Grazia presented some of the most important results of his many years of interdisciplinary research. He began by briefly reviewing Immanuel Velikovsky's Mankind in Amnesia (1982) and Julian Jaynes' The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind (USA: 1976, UK: 1979). While both works provide ...
