... animals, rocks, etc.(4 ) Presumably, Durkheim would have included daily family life as well, since his chief criticism was the mundaneness of the naturistic concept: that which characterizes the life of nature is a regularity which approaches monotony. Every morning the sun mounts in the horizon, every evening it sets; every month the moon goes through the same cycle; the river flows in an uninterrupted manner in its bed; the same seasons periodically bring back the same sensations. To be sure, here and there an unexpected event sometimes happens: the sun is eclipsed, the moon is hidden behind clouds, the river overflows. But these momentary variations could only give ...
... those early argonauts who founded the colony. We are told that this god was the son of Ía, and that his name was Tammuz; he was in some way associated with Asari (? Osiris) (Sayce, p. 144), who, according to Jensen, represented the Earth (p . 195); of the Moon we apparently hear nothing. This Tammuz (Dumuzi), we find, ultimately became "the Nergal of Southern Chaldaea, the sun-god of winter and night, who rules, like Rhadamanthos, in the lower world" (Sayce, p. 245), and as lord of Hades he was made son of Mullil (Sayce, ...
683. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Halley's comet as deduced from the data from the Giotto probe (early data was given by us in C & C WORKSHOP 1986:1 , p.29; see also letters on pp.37-38). Among the surface features of Halley's comet are raised circles resembling craters. The craters have hollow slopes much like the ones on the Moon, but are thought not to have been caused by impacts (unlike the situation on the Moon) but to be produced by jets of gas and dust escaping from the comet nucleus. And... "the surface of the nucleus is surprisingly dark... the dust emitted... is surprisingly rich in organic matter ...

... write against' Mr Ellenberger, but solely to demonstrate that no inversion (as I and others understand that term) would occur. When he wrote that: a lunar mass placed, not impacted, on the Arctic Circle would produce an inversion in about a fortnight' I thought he meant that if a mass equal to that of the Moon was placed at a latitude of 67 North it would cause the North and South poles to change places in a period of about 14 days. He has now written to me explaining that he'... was content that to a first approximation a +/ -67 wobble is an inversion'. Hmm! Humpty Dumpty said ...

687. Fenris-Wolf, Part 2 Mars Ch.4 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... it is said that "a star takes the shape of divers animals: lion, jackal, dog, pig, fish."1 This, in our opinion, explains the worship of animals by ancient peoples, notably the Egyptians. The planet Mars, its atmosphere distorted by its approaches to other celestial bodies- Venus, earth, moon- took on different shapes. The Mexicans narrated that Huitzilopochtli, the bellicose destroyer of cities, took the form of various birds and beasts.2 On one occasion Mars very characteristically resembled a wolf or a jackal. In Babylonia Mars had seven names-Jackal was one of them.3 Also, the god with the head of ...
688. Henry H. Bauer and Immanuel Velikovsky [Books]
... (48) Once again Bauer calls Velikovsky "quite misleading" as he did with respect to mutations, this time regarding his citation of McCrea's 1960 paper, in the light of conventional theories. McCrea was distinctly analyzing the roche limit in terms of conventional theories for the formation of the terrestrial planets, (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Moon and Mars) and indeed, density is crucial in this discussion. The conventional planetary formation theories McCrea was analyzing namely the nebula and tidal theories and/or derivations of them, contrary to Bauer's assertion, all begin with the terrestrial planets condensing gravitationally from clouds of gas and dust, not from solid bodies. As Peter Cattermole states ...
689. The Israelite Origins of Monotheism and the Prohibition of Killing [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... between the denial of sacrifice and monotheism, I hope to show that the many-sided picture we have of the Patriarch is not as fortuitous as it may seem. What, then, are we told about Abraham? Abraham is the son of Terach who espouses a planetary religion. We hear that Terach's religion entailed the sacrifice of children to a moon deity whose principal shrines were set up at Ur and Harran.2 In Northern Syria the moon deity even bears the name Terach. Abraham remains without a son for an unusually long time. When an heir is finally born to him, he receives a divine command to sacrifice him (i .e . to kill him in accordance ...
690. Chapter II: The Events [The Age of Velikovsky] [Books]
... quote about primitive tribes on Samoa who did not develop writing but repeat even today that the planet Venus became wild and grew horns out of her head. 24 Numerous other examples exist Since the horns of Venus are described so often by the ancients, an explanation has been sought which fits with the uniformitarian concept. Venus has phases like the moon. It has been suggested that the normal phases of Venus caused the ancients to refer to it as having grown horns. This suggestion does not seem entirely adequate since the ancients did not seem to have the same fascination with saying the Moon grew horns. It seems even less reasonable because the phases of Venus cannot now be resolved with ...
