... to the attention of the Western World, Christian theologians have been grappling with the apparent contradiction of their meaning. "The Bible and theologians have been ridiculed for standing firm on the Mosaic version, which asserts that on the first day God created light. How is it possible to create light on the first day when the sun, the moon, and the stars were created later, i.e ., on the fourth day?"(55) Apologists have supplied various explanations,(56) but, it seems to us, in Saturn's flare-up we finally hold in our hands the solution to this ancient teaser. Actually, the Jews seem never to have been ...
752. Shifting Poles. Ch.8 Poles Displaced (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... .. . assumes the solid earth to be a shell of 30 or 100, or 500 or 1000 kilometres thickness, resting on an interior liquid mass." Lord Kelvin showed that, if the earth were a liquid mass covered with a solid crust, "the solid crust would yield so freely to the deforming influence of sun and moon, that it would simply carry the waters of the oceans up and down with it, and there would be no sensible tidal rise and fall of water relatively to it. The state of the case is shortly this: The hypothesis of a perfectly rigid crust containing liquid, violates physics by assuming preternaturally rigid matter, and violates dynamical ...
753. Thoth Vol III, No. 11: Aug 25, 1999 [Journals] [Thoth]
... shape. That planets were, in fact, anciently represented as spheres, is one of the more fundamental levels of evidence that the planets were formerly seen up close and personal.- IO's AURORAL LIGHTS NASA: Comments by Wal Thornhill Auroral lights on Io reveal secrets of jovian moon's atmosphere August 5, 1999 An astronaut landing on the Jovian moon Io would have a harsh environment to deal with, but would be rewarded with the most dazzling auroral light show in the solar system. A current study reveals new information about the moon's red, green and blue auroral lights and how they relate to Io's tenuous atmosphere. Last October, a team of American and Taiwanese space scientists reported ...
754. Velikovsky: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow [Journals] [SIS Review]
... am opposed to floods. If we check in advance, such mistakes can be avoided." This was not standard practice for reporters but now that Velikovsky had sought my advice, how could I refuse? I laboured away on the article for several weeks. My editor moved up my deadline so that the article would coincide with the first moon landing in July of 1969. That left no time to mail an advance copy to Velikovsky as promised. So I called him up and read my text over the phone. Almost immediately he stopped me, criticizing my choice of words. I ploughed ahead. He stopped me again, angrily asking why I had not mentioned a particular ...
755. "A Silly Season". File II (Stargazers and Gravediggers) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Stargazers]
... Worlds in Collision: "The first visit to the earth of this erratic comet was 1500 B.C ., precisely at the time Moses stretched out his hand and caused the Red Sea to divide." This would be an unbelievable coincidence. "Fifty-two years later the comet's return coincided with Joshua's successful attempt to make the sun and moon stand still." Another unbelievable coincidence. With these few lines the reviewer circumscribed the story of the book. In Worlds in Collision I describe the flight of the Israelites as the result of a natural catastrophe, and in the description of the debacle at the sea, where many Israelites also found their death, I do not even ...
756. The Jupiter Effect: The Planets as Triggers of Devastating Earthquakes by John Gribbin and Stephen Plagemann [Journals] [Kronos]
... 1857 other sections of the fault have slipped about 6 cm per year but the San Bernardino-Parkfield section has been building up unrelieved stresses that are due soon to be released catastrophically in another nine-meter jump. Many psychics have claimed precognition of an imminent California disaster; and some astrologers specify the dawning of the Age of Aquarius will occur "when the Moon is in the Seventh House, and Jupiter aligns with Mars." Astrophysicist Gribbin and astronomer Plagemann predict flatly that in 1982 the alignment of all nine planets will not only inaugurate the Aquarian Age, but "Los Angeles will be destroyed." Postscript. Dr. K. D. Wood informs me that subsequent to the publication of ...
757. Years Of Ten Months, Part 2 Mars Ch.8 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... , November, and December, which denote the seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth months, but according to present-day reckoning they are the ninth, tenth, eleventh, and twelfth months, respectively. Not only was the year divided into fewer than twelve months, but also the zodiac, or the path of the sun and the moon across the firmament, at present consisting of twelve signs, at one time had eleven and at another time ten signs. A zodiac of fewer tha n twelve signs was employed by the astrologers of Babylonia, ancient Greece, and other countries.7 A Jewish song in the Aramaic language which is included in the Seder Service refers to ...
758. Zetetic Scholar Nos. 6 July 1980 [Articles]
... . Vsekhsvyatskii while he was head of the Kiev Observatory in Russia. He has for many years discussed the possibility that comets originate (ongoing process) from the giant planets or their satellites. The evidence considered by Vsekhsvyatskii led him to conclude that there would be a ring of debris around Jupiter and volcanoes would be found on some of the moons by Jupiter. When these items were discovered, they were called "surprises" and "completely unexpected." Morrison may prefer an alternate interpretation of the evidence, but he cannot "imagine" the evidence out of existence. Vsekhsvyatskii has all the proper credentials and has the support of a number of other investigators in Russia, but ...
759. The Legends of the Jews: Volume II - Moses in Egypt [Books]
... his going forth. The warning of the plague that was imminent not having had any effect upon Pharaoh, God sent the fourth plague upon Egypt,[187] a mixed horde of wild animals, lions, bears, wolves, and panthers, and so many birds of prey of different kinds that the light of the sun and the moon was darkened as they circled through the air. These beasts came upon the Egyptians as a punishment for desiring to force the seed of Abraham to amalgamate with the other nations. God retaliated by bringing a mixture upon them that cost them their life.[188] As Pharaoh had been the first of the Egyptians to lay evil plans ...
760. Chapter I: The Worship of the Sun and the Dawn [Books]
... at all, apparently, in the early stage- were any observations made of any celestial object for the mere purpose of getting knowledge. We know from the recent discoveries of Strassmaier and Epping that this stage was reached at Babylon at least 300 years B.C ., at which time regular calculations were made of the future positions of moon and planets, and of such extreme accuracy that they could have been at once utilised for practical purposes. It looks as if rough determinations of star places were made at about the same time in Egypt and Babylonia. This abstract inquiry is now practically the only source of interest in astronomy to us; we no longer worship the sun ...
