... was mapped onto the cosmos by ancient peoples, and how the human spine was related to the cosmic axis or world tree. Wood, Robert Muir. The Dark Side of the Earth. Allen & Unwin, London and Boston, 1985. Wood's book will be of interest to catastrophists because of its interesting description of the relationship between the geologist Harry Hess and Velikovsky. Hess was one of the few professional geologists whose active career spanned the "paradigm shift" to plate tectonics. Hess never subscribed to Velikovsky's theories, but he believed they should be treated seriously and judged on their scientific merit. Hess asked Velikovsky to lecture to his students, most likely in order to press ...

895. The Exodus Symposium April 23-25, 1987 [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... their theories fared not much better than the Early and Late hypotheses. In his lecture Dr. Goedicke defended the historicity of the Exodus event, but then argued that the biblical account should be treated as a literary document rather than a primary historical source. It became clear that he was trying to establish the biblical evidence as subservient to the geological, archaeological, and inscriptional documentation he was bringing to bear. It was in 1981 that Goedicke first revealed his theory that the massive eruption of the volcanic island of Thera, north of Crete, some time near the end of the sixteenth century B.C . was responsible for many of the events associated with the Exodus. These ...

... scientific riddle"; "Granite and sedimentary rocks of the types which originally must have been a part of a continent" were found 3,600 feet under the surface of the ocean. What was a "riddle" for the discoverer was a familiar notion in the heretical theory. In 1950 there was also published a book, Marine Geology, by a prominent Dutch scientist, Professor P. H. Kuenen of Leyden. He wrote that the drop of the ocean level found around the world first claimed by Reginald Daly thirty years earlier had been found verified and added: The time of the movement was estimated by Daly to be probably some 3000 to 4000 years ago. ...

... engrams in the collective human memory - great mnemonics frozen in stone to preserve some message for future generations. There is another bias involved which is less obvious and, in a sense, is a greater obstacle to a better scientific understanding of human heritage. In the history of science, the theory of biological evolution developed in direct relation to geological theory. In this theory the Earth's rate of geological change was too slow to be observed. Mountains rose, canyons opened, seas became deserts, and whole continents wandered across the globe at a pace marked off in millions-of-years. Accordingly, the human race and its history has been free of cataclysm on any scale greater than those we ...

MARS Meandering "river" on Martian surface Only a few months ago the world's astronomers were convinced that Mars, like the moon, was a geologically dead planet. The astronomers were sure that its surface- just as that of the moon- was pitted by craters undoubtedly gouged out by meteorites that rained down more than 3.5 billion years ago. Over the aeons, only the zephyrs of its tenuous atmosphere had wrought any erosional changes on the Martian surface. Suddenly, however, this ...
