... and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment, and they had on their heads crowns of gold. (5 ) And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices [sounds]: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne . . . (6 ) And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal. . . and round about the throne were four beasts full of eyes before and behind. (7 ) And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast was like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle. ...
32. Minerals, Metals, Glazing and Man, by John Dayton, Reviewed by Geoffrey Gammon [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... not only a manual of the technology of glazing but also an attempt to resolve the apparent contradictions posed by these anachronistic artifacts by challenging accepted views on the chronology of the Bronze Age in the Near East and the Aegean. The book is divided into three parts. Part I is wholly technical, being devoted principally to defining the nature of glass, glazed bodies, and pigments such as Egyptian blue or kyanos,3and explaining how a glaze is applied to clay and other objects. Part II, entitled "Geology, Metallurgy and Trade," charts :the geological occurrence of non-ferrous metals in Europe and the Near East, indicates how copper and bronze metallurgy developed in areas of ...
33. Nemesis for Evolutionary Gradualism? [Books]
... area, in the upper part of the Hell Creek formation, for the existence of mammals characteristic of the Palaeocene Epoch (the first of the Tertiary Period) during the Late Cretaceous [16,17]. Van Valen was well known for his Red Queen hypothesis of evolution, named after the Red Queen in Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass, who spoke of running very hard to stay in the same place, and the hypothesis stated that both predators and prey needed to evolve continuously to maintain the status quo [120-122]. He was a persistent critic of neocatastrophism, or rather of some of its assertive adherents, pointing out that selective use of the evidence could appear ...
34. Some Additional Comments On Tektites [Journals] [Kronos]
... light of Velikovsky's disclosures that both the Moon and the Earth were involved in discharges with intruding planetary bodies, there would appear to be no reason to insist that tektites now found on Earth could not have derived from both bodies (or, indeed, in some measure from Venus and Mars as well). O'Keefe's claim to have found tektite glass in an Apollo sample makes a case for a lunar origin for some "fire pearls." A long trek into the interior of Laos by Barnes some years ago pretty well established that certain, massive, "Muong Nong" tektites, peculiar to Indochina, must have been fused in situ from native soils. There is much more ...
35. The Electric Universe: Part I: Electrical Scarring [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... and Suzanne N. Lyons, Meteoritics & Planetary Science 33, 131-143 (1998). Now consider electric arcs (spark machining) cratering. They produce circular craters with flat floors, melted terraces, a central peak, steep walls, a raised rim with smaller craters on the rim, bilateral symmetry, shocked material, with fulgarites and glass. Disturbed electrical craters may give asymmetry, eg: the Anaxagoras crater [see www.nrl.navy.mil/clementine/clib/features/crater_a _c .html], lunar corkscrew crater, Tharsis Tholus [eg see www.exploringmars.com/science/atlas/tt.html]. The ...
36. The Velikovskian Vol. VI, No. 1: Contents [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... outlines evidence that proves that ancient Near Eastern history is not as long as historians have claimed. The evidence includes: Sothic dating Radiocarbon dating Pottery dating Metallurgy as it is applies to pottery dating, as well as to carving and inscribed granite and diorite Egyptian and Mesopotamian stratigraphy are also analyzed along with the evidence of: erosion agronomy climatology agriculture glass technology domestication of the horse and ass linguistics forensic anthropology musical instrumentation of the hepatonic diatonic scale And much more! Published Mesopotanian stratigraphical research, based on geology and archaeology now indisputably prove 700 to 800 years were added to history by the archaeologists. Linguistics related to Hebrew, Greek and Hittite along with agronomy, climatology, irrigation, burial ...
37. The AAAS Symposium on Velikovsky [Books]
... has turned into myth the reality of the scientific establishment's actions toward Velikovsky. While Velikovsky was accused of perverting science by incorporating the study of myths to rewrite it, Storer has perverted the study of science by incorporating the myths of how science operates for the realities of how it actually operates. His judgment is influenced by his sociologically rose colored glasses just as the bigots described above were not color blind, believing they were right in their actions. As was pointed out in Pensée, by Professor Lynn E. Rose: "All this culminated in the following contention [by Storer]: . . . it is far better that most claims about scientific truth coming from non-scientific sources ...
38. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Review]
... 8 .99, supplement p. 11, Scientific American Nov. 98, pp. 36-43, Connecticut Post 7.3 .99 Now it is the accepted thing: signs of past catastrophic impacts of bodies from space continue to be found everywhere. In the Egyptian Sahara is an large area scattered with tonnes of the purest natural silica glass ever found. Its melting point is over 500 degrees higher than other glasses and it has been dated to nearly 30 Myrs ago. Some dark inclusions have proved to be high in iridium, indicating contact with space material, but there is no sign of an actual impact zone. It has therefore been suggested that a bolide exploded before ...
39. A Failed Excursion to the Caves of Aquitaine [Books] [de Grazia books]
... hotel was built to outlast the recent growth of the city. When I draw the long draperies and throw open the large windows, I am just above the melee of the railroad station. A paradisiac room for an urban sociologist. I am content. I feel like working immediately. I clear the little mirrored table, pour out a glass of Glenfiddich's whisky, and begin to leaf through my folders, stopping at a point where it occurs to me to write down the kinds of questions I must be asking myself and others throughout the field trip through the country of the famous prehistoric caves. I copy them here. 1) Is superposition the same everywhere? 2) ...
40. Horeb: The Mountain of God [Journals] [SIS Review]
... was found to be blackened and scorched, as if by searing heat (this in fact is readily observable from the ground). Now this is most strange, since the mountain is not a volcano. At the summit Williams, a trained geologist, examined some of the rocks. These he deemed to be composed of obsidian (volcanic glass), or a material closely resembling obsidian. [1 ]. But, it is highly significant that, upon splitting the rocks open, the core was found to be unscorched, not obsidian, but of the original sandstone-like rock of the mountain [2 ]. Cornuke and Williams are both born-again Christians and for them this was ...
