... conclusions drawn from the standard solar model, which is central to modern cosmology, I agree with Gregg Easterbrook who wrote in The New Republic of last October 12; ". .. 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 surely be treated as a preposterous myth." It is worthwhile pointing out that the form of the magnetic field of the Sun matches the expectations of an Electric Sun, with field lines being evenly spaced rather than bunched near the poles like a ...

684. Thoth Vol IV, No 13: Aug 31, 2000 [Journals] [Thoth]
... Year's celebration. Carnival of course is in the Spring and is a Spring equinox festival. If it is a New Year's festival it dates from the time when the year began with March (as reflected in the names of the last four months of our year). The Jewish New Year was also originally a Spring festival, according to Genesis. However the Winter solstice festival, which is our Christmas, certainly was dropped on to the pagan Saturnalia (Yule), and this is very close to our New Year. Was there an ancient New Year's festival following closely on the Saturnalia celebrating the arrival of Jupiter (the reborn Saturn) as the Universal Monarch? Can anyone ...

... that Professor Sagan be asked to continue his point of view. VOICES: .. . [inaudible] .. . QUESTIONER: I present it to the podium. If one man made the sacrifice of allowing him to continue, I think he should make the sacrifice to attempt to stay here. KING: When I was describing the genesis of this Symposium, I mentioned that A.A .A .S . put this Symposium together out of a feeling that the work of Dr. Velikovsky was worth presenting at a public forum. What I did not mention at that time was that Professor Sagan is not only a vigorous defender of science, he is also a ...
686. The Intellectual Context of Velikovsky's Thought [Articles]
... governing both and no more catastrophes. That is what you might suppose; it isn't really true. Newton himself believed you could have catastrophes. He himself believed he was an old testament prophet: he was a Unitarian and didn't believe in the divinity of Christ. He spent a good deal of time trying to show that the story of Genesis, the creation, was correct, six days and so forth. He saw nothing wrong with having both the universal laws of the heavens governing both the heavens and the earth and also having catastrophes. He saw it quite possible for God, who had given these laws, to break those laws. Therefore there was no tension in ...
687. The Social Impact of Velikovsky on our Generation [Articles]
... consummate detail in the finest of western scholarship, he not only uses western methods to illuminate his truths- he uses western sources to prove his case. His work re-interprets our own canons of knowledge- the whole Hebraic heritage and the very precepts of the scientific tradition. These are the building stones of his new cosmology. From the very genesis of Judaism, with the flight out of Egypt during the catastrophic circumstances, to the frontiers of modern physics, his theory is revealed. Better than affirming the possibility of catastrophe, Velikovsky has provided an argument in western terms for a catastrophic cosmology. This symposium is in fact a celebration of the acceptance of Velikovsky's work. Far from ...
688. The Nature and Scale of an Exodus Catastrophe Reassessed [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Augustine reminds his readers that Eusebius and Jerome, following other more ancient authors', placed the flood of Ogyges in the reign of Phoroneus, second king of Argos (City of God, bk. XVIII, ch. 9), who was in turn synchronised (XVIII, 3) with the confirmation of God's covenant with Jacob (Genesis 35). These synchronisms place the flood of Ogyges in the 20th century BC (taking the biblical chronology at face value, as the Church Fathers were wont to do). Augustine also mentions in passing (XVIII, 9) that Marcus Varro, writing in the 1st century BC, placed the flood of Ogyges three centuries earlier ...
689. Cosmic Catastrophe in 'Paradise Lost' [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... recorded that a nectarous fluid came from the wound indicates that he had investigated the evidence along the same lines as Velikovsky and had come to the same conclusion. For these reasons it appears to me at least highly probable that Milton believed that a cosmic catastrophe had preceded the creation of the World as we know it, and as recounted in Genesis. Where, then, could he have obtained his information? Milton was born in 1608; he graduated at Cambridge in 1629 and continued to study there until 1632: he presumably received the standard University education of the period. At this time, however, he seems to have become obsessed with books, and for six years after ...
