... much of the peculiar deficiency of the institution, as of the imperfect state of science at that time, and the manner in which knowledge, though rapidly extending, was still impeded in its progress by monastic bigotry.... [During the debate] Columbus was assailed with citations from the Bible and the Testament: the book of Genesis, the psalms of David, the orations of the Prophets, the epistles of the apostles, and the gospels of the Evangelists. To these were added expositions of various saints and reverend commentators: St. Chrysostom and St. Augustine, St. Jerome and St. Gregory, St. Basil and St. Ambrose, and Lactarius ...
542. Celestial Records of the Orient by Isaac Vail [Books]
... fact beyond any reasonable doubt. Besides, it so plainly becomes reliable history under this light that I hasten to open the page sealed so long, though the illumination comes from a pagan lands W.E . Griffith translates the narrative from the ancient records and I quote from President Warren's valuable book "Paradise Found". After giving the genesis of the Japanese heaven and earth by the two solar spirits, Izanagi and Izanami, the record affirms: "At this time heaven and earth were very close together, and the goddess Amaterazu, being a rare and beautiful child, whose body shone brilliantly, Izanagi sent her up the pillar that united heaven and earth and bade her ...
543. Yosef Hayim Yerushalmi, "Freud's Moses" [Journals] [Aeon]
... and Monotheism. Nor can we overlook Freud's indirect influence- through Velikovsky- upon all of us pursuing catastrophist studies. Readers of AEON will thus find much of interest in Yerushalmi's little book (the text runs to a total of 79 pages), the latter being a welcome addition to an already towering mass of works attempting to understand the genesis of Freud's thought. That Freud was obsessed with Moses is generally acknowledged (interestingly enough, Freud had earlier been fixated upon the figure of Athena(1 )) . His overwhelming feelings of guilt and awe before Michelangelo's Moses, his compulsion to publish Moses and Monotheism despite its controversial nature, are well-known. What is less well-known is ...
544. Formation of Chondritic Meteorites and the Solar System [Journals] [SIS Review]
... 500 BC Introduction This paper examines some of the puzzling features of the largest class of meteorites, the stony chondritic meteorites, or chondrites. Chondrites are so named because they contain chondrules or small spherules of olivine, enstatite or another of the meteoritic materials. The chondrules are embedded in a matrix of similar material. A new theory of chondrite genesis is outlined here and an experiment proposed which may test its most important aspects. The implications of this theory for the formation of the Solar System is discussed, and also wider topics. Current theories on the formation of chondrites see them as products of the condensation of the solar nebula, very early in the history of the Solar System ...
545. Cosmic Catastrophism [Journals] [Aeon]
... earth's topography. A science fiction plot? Not according to many authors who have presented a similar scenario as historical fact over the years. A supposed collision or near-collision between earth and an asteroid, comet, or planet in ancient times has been used variously as the explanation for the destruction of Atlantis (2 ) , the Deluge recorded in Genesis (3 ) , or the miraculous events connected with the Israelite Exodus from Egypt. (4 ) Immanuel Velikovsky has provided the most detailed arguments for such cosmic catastrophism, and his theories have a large and very vocal following among the general public. Worlds in Collision? Immanuel Velikovsky was a medical doctor (with a specialty in psychoanalysis ...
546. Were the "Sumerians of the Third Millennium" in Reality the Chaldeans of the First Millennium? [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... its connection to the pseudo-astronomical "Sothis/ Manetho" dating scheme for Egypt. Egyptian faience, therefore, must follow Mycenae III into the 9th century. At this point the critical reader will find himself at once asking just where, in their Mesopotamian homeland, the Sumerians could find a place to live in this period of history. In Genesis 11:28 the father of the Hebrews, Abraham, is said to have been born in "Ur of the Chaldees," whereas (van Seters, 264) "this can only have meaning in the Neo-Babylonian period, during the period of Chaldean dominance and the reign of Nabonidus in particular." But the excavator of Ur ...

... ., in the general region where the Mitannians are supposed to appear a millennium later (ca. 1500 B.C .) 4 In his book, The Greatness that was Babylon, H.W .F . Saggs writes: "These people (the Hurrians) long known in the Old Testament as the Horites or Horims (Genesis 14:6 ; Deuteronomy 2:12), spoke a language having no recognized affinities except with the later Urartians. They must have reached the mountains north of Assyria presumably from the Caucasus region in the second half of the third millenium before the Agade period (the time of Sargon of Akkad): two inscriptions of the Agade ...

... was an ever and everywhere present overpowering universe-fact-must' from the earliest times when human intelligence had grown-up to the notice of it, have exercised an enormous and fascinating and abiding influence upon the observant and reflective, upon the devout portion of mankind; and must have provided the supreme initial origin of the greater Cosmic Myths which concern themselves with the genesis and mechanism of the Universe. The earliest and simplest leading conclusion formulated as to this rotation, by the inhabitants of our hemisphere must have been that it was accomplished around a fixed point, the quiescent. North Pole; and the next deduction was that in that point' that pivot, there terminated a fixed and rigid Axis about ...

... time they inflicted an injury upon Moses. The other Israelitish officers were gentle and kind; they permitted themselves to be beaten by the taskmasters rather than prod the laborers of their own people put under their surveillance. The cruel suffering to which his people was exposed caused Moses to speak to God thus: "I have read the book of Genesis through, and I found the doom in it pronounced upon the generation of the deluge. It was a just judgment. I found also the punishments decreed against the generation of the confusion of tongues, and against the inhabitants of Sodom. These, too, were just. But what hath this nation of Israel done unto Thee, ...

A journalist has written:'... for sheer extravagant implausibility, nothing in theology or metaphysics can hold a candle to the [Big] Bang. Surely, if this description of the cosmic genesis came from the Bible or the Koran rather than the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, it would be treated as a preposterous myth' [1 ] . A few professionals [2 ], like the astronomers Halton Arp, Sir Fred Hoyle and Tom van Flandern, do so treat it. Van Flandern has listed on his website the Top ...
