52. The Mount of Salvation [Books]
... , and some of their chattels, were saved in a vessel of some sort, relate that a group of men, and usually a few of their animals, found salvation on a mountain peak which did not become submerged. Generally they are represented as having found refuge in a cave from the terrors of the cataclysm. The Book of Genesis also contains a myth of that type, but it is not told in connection with the great deluge report. The redactor has grafted it on to a story of the experiences of one of the early patriarchs'. Yet the vivid pictorialism of the myth and its whole get-up is so different from the tame, not to say tedious ...

... involving Saturn but he places Saturn's "flare-up" at the so called dawn of creation which implies that Talbotts "sun of night" would have been an already-spent star. Since Cardona's theory is also well founded, it is time to ask the question: did Saturn explode twice? According to the Bible, Saturn definitely exploded twice. In Genesis 1:3 "God said let there be light and there was light. God saw the light was good." (Jerusalem Bible) In Genesis 7:10 "And it came to pass after seven days that the waters of the flood were on the Earth." (King James version) In Kronos V:I ...

55. Radiant Genesis [Books] [de Grazia books]
... From: Solaria Binaria, by Alfred De Grazia and Earl R. Milton Home | Issue Contents CHAPTER NINE Radiant Genesis The physical history of Solaria Binaria may be divided into three major periods according to the intensity of quantavolution occurring: a primary period of violent changes and rapid development, extending perhaps to a quarter of a million years; a secondary period of relative balance among the elements within the system, extending almost to the present; and a shorter tertiary period of system breakdown, when Super Uranus, the planets, the sac and plenum, and the electrical arc with its magnetic tube underwent abrupt transformations. A biosphere was generated during the primary period and produced its main ...
56. On the Disproportion between Geological Time and Historical Time Part One - Of Apes and Men [Journals] [SIS Review]
... model the beginning is an historical event and the Earth is of recent origin. In the other the beginning is beyond the reach of human memory and the Earth is ancient, allowing sufficient time for Nature to act as a substitute Creator. The purest (and also the oldest) form of the historical model is that in the Book of Genesis. It is monotheistic, focused on God and man, objective in the narration of events, specific in the mention of people and places, and connects the present to the very beginning of time by means of a genealogical ladder. The purest (and the most recent) form of the philosophical model is the theory of evolution. ...

58. Jupiter -- God of Abraham (Part I) [Journals] [Kronos]
... Cardona Copyright (C ) 1981 by Dwardu Cardona 1. Introduction Immanuel Velikovsky has attributed the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah to a close encounter of Earth with the planet Jupiter.(1 ) Basing his opinion on clues supplied by Velikovsky, but independently of him, James Strickling has suggested a similar cause.(2 ) The Book of Genesis, as well as extra-Biblical sources, blames the destruction on Abraham's god. From a religious point of view, Velikovsky's implication is that the planet Jupiter was the god of Abraham. Can this be substantiated? Let us first ask: Who was Abraham? 2. Ur of the Chaldees Abraham, originally called Abram, was born in ...
59. The Genesis of Religion [Books] [de Grazia books]
... primordial days to the present? The question sends us back to the beginnings of the human species, when religious behavior began. We seek to establish there, and thenceforth through the ages, the connection between religion and human nature, in mind and in practice, and to come to an understanding of the historical gods. CHAPTER ONE The Genesis of Religion To the fresh, mad eye of primeval man, the world was full of gods. The human mind worked so as immediately to create religion.
