... From: Moons, Myths and Man by H. S. Bellamy CD Rom Home Last | Contents | Next 11 Reports of a Sudden Wave of Hot Air The air, which had been drawn into tropical latitudes by the gravitational pull of the close satellite, also had to flow off again towards the poles when the satellite broke up, ebbing to and fro several times like the waters. Little imagination is needed to suppose that the air which had been piled up within the tropics was considerably warmer than that of the ice-fringe districts. This heat-wave' caused by the streaming off of the atmospheric girdle-tide is duly recorded by a number of peoples. In this case it is ...
432. Europa Closeups [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... markings closer in at the foot of the image says: "Smaller dark, circular features seen here are probably impact craters." Does that mean that the strings of them along the valley floors are impact craters? It cannot be so. What we are seeing are the crater strings associated with lightning tearing across the surface. On the Moon, astronauts were puzzled by the fact that all craters, down to a meter or less in diameter, had glazed floors. Impacts do not cause much melting, lightning does. The dark material on Europa is most likely melted surface material. That together with the crater circularity and the strings of them along the valley floors central to ...
433. Deluge Warnings (Moons, Myths and Man) [Books]
... From: Moons, Myths and Man by H. S. Bellamy CD Rom Home Last | Contents | Next 13 Deluge Warnings The period immediately before the Great Flood must have been eventful and ominous. The impending catastrophe cast its shadow before. With the complete disintegration of the satellite and the waning of its powers, the comparative stability of the distorted lithosphere had come to an end, and the earthquake shocks, increasing in number, duration, and strength, told everybody that something was going to happen. The state of the atmosphere, too, must have announced a great change, for endless cloudbursts or hailstorms descended from the dark, low, tempestuous clouds. The ...
434. Deluges [Books] [de Grazia books]
... C . These were exoterrestrial. In these cases, described in Chaos and Creation, as well as on a number of other occasions, universal and local conflagrations and explosions caused damaging fall-outs of material that was raised from the Earth. The gravest such occurrences would have been the fall-back of some of the material that was erupting to form the Moon, around 11,500 B.C . Huge falls of insects, fish, frogs, etc. would have certainly constituted terrifying spectacles over less extensive areas, and were sometimes the cause of plagues. Issac Vail, an American naturalist, in 1874 proposed that the Deluge of Noah occurred "as a philosophical necessity, arising from ...
435. Conclusion (Moons, Myths and Man) [Books]
... From: Moons, Myths and Man by H. S. Bellamy CD Rom Home Last | Contents | Next Conclusion We have now reached the end of our story. Some five hundred myths, given in full or in part, have told us of days of the dim past when catastrophes, the violence of which we can hardly comprehend, wrenched the Earth into a new form. These myths have also told us of a time of which, up till now, only geology, and to some extent astronomy, were supposed to have the monopoly of description and explanation. This book has set out to interpret the old wonder-tales of the world from a new point of ...

437. Tower Myths (Moons, Myths and Man) [Books]
... From: Moons, Myths and Man by H. S. Bellamy CD Rom Home Last | Contents | Next 16 Tower Myths When the ancestral mountain was abandoned the descendants had lost a convenient rallying ground, where their affections were fixed, which could be seen from afar, and by which they could take their bearings when out scouting in unknown territory. In order to return to their settlements in the plains without getting lost in the vast wilderness, they either tried to build it on some natural eminence, or they decided to build an artificial hill. To either they transferred their awe and veneration, and assigned its top to their deities. Let us build a tower ...
438. The Literature of the Bible (Moons, Myths and Man) [Books]
... From: Moons, Myths and Man by H. S. Bellamy CD Rom Home Last | Contents | Next 18 The Literature of the Bible The literature of the Bible offers a great problem to the mythologist. The Bible is a unique Book consisting of various matter from various ages and various nations in various stages of their development. It represents a fair though entirely arbitrary selection of writings which are neither historical nor mythological in any strict sense. The Jewish religious beliefs have gone through a very peculiar process of sublimation in the course of which a divine glamour was thrown over all the hard facts', till faith developed out of a religion of experience a religion of revelation ...
... From: Moons, Myths and Man by H. S. Bellamy CD Rom Home Last | Contents | Next 34 The Formation of the Mediterranean The Mediterranean as we know it had come into existence only a short time before the catastrophe described in the preceding chapter. Where its waters now roll there were, before Luna was captured, probably three, or perhaps four, small sea basins. What may be called the Iberian or Gallic Sea was the farthest west, and it was chiefly fed by the River Rhóne. Next to this basin was the basin of the Tyrrhenian Sea, into which the River Tiber chiefly flowed. The central basin was filled with the Ionian Sea ...
440. The Creation of Man (Moons, Myths and Man) [Books]
... From: Moons, Myths and Man by H. S. Bellamy CD Rom Home Last | Contents | Next 20 The Creation of Man From the earliest ages man has wondered how the universe round him came into being. He did not take the phenomena of the world for granted; he refused to believe that things are as they are, because they are; he had, from the dawn of his humanity, a clear conception of growth, creation, evolution. Man's conception of the creation of the physical world has been treated at large in an earlier chapter. It is enough to repeat that there are two main branches of the lore of the coming into existence ...
