... Sagan's evidence, seems to get worse. Formaldehyde, when itpolymerizes, becomes carbohydrates. But Sagan still seems to think manna is a hydrocarbon where he states, "In Exodus, Chapter 16, Verse 20, we find that manna left overnight was infested by worms in the morning-an event possible with carbohydrates, but extremely unlikely with hydrocarbons. Moses may have been a better chemist than Velikovsky."5 In the Atlantic Monthly, Mannfred A. Hollinger of the University of California, Davis, Department of Pharmacology, discussed Sagan's knowledge of basic chemistry and pointed out that Sagan clearly doesn't know the simple difference between a hormone and a hallucinogen. Hollinger goes on to state that he ...
372. Herakles and Velikovskian Catastrophism [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... called a silly story. He could not use Egyptian arguments where the Hyksos were concerned. We identified Busiris with one of the first Hyksos pharaohs. In Velikovsky's Revised Chronology the Jews left Egypt as the Hyksos entered. After 40 years of travel through the desert the Jews reached the border of the Promised Land, ready to enter. Then Moses died.8 Augustine, who preserved many chronological dates of great value in his De Civitate Dei, wrote that Busiris lived during the time between the Exodus and the death of Joshua,9 and the chronicle of Eusebius and Hieronymus made Busiris contemporary with Joshua. About human sacrifice in Egypt I found more. In a fragment of Manetho10 ...

... quarternary moon (our moon) was captured. This idea does have the merit of preserving Plato's date i.e . about 9,000 B.C . rather than depending on the Exodus catastrophe to account for the disappearance of Atlantis. However, it may be that Velikovsky associates the disappearance of only the last vestiges of Atlantis in Moses' time and that his still unpublished works will shed further light on his ideas in this respect. Having pointed out that the only periods in history where fossilisation occurs are catastrophic periods, which seems to be a valid point if one excludes catastrophes of a local nature, Saurat then gets down to his main theme of gigantism'. ...
374. Gezer and the Philistines (Letter) [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... Whelton makes my point exactly when he says the Philistines did not suddenly appear by sea in Ramesses III's time but had been there since the time of Abraham. This is not the view of the orthodox historians who believe the arrival of Philistines on the Canaanite coast at the time of the Exodus was their first appearance. Thus the fact that Moses bypassed the land of the Philistines is considered an anachronism and a late insertion. If Whelton is suggesting that at the Exodus some Philistines returned to a land they had previously occupied or was being inhabited by their relatives, I do not disagree; but then it was not "any port in a storm!" which was the main ...
375. Behold Thy Gods, O Israel Jeroboam and the Israelite Revolution [Journals] [Kronos]
... appearing in the pages of KRONOS as well. - LMG "Behold thy gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt." - I Kings 12:28 According to rabbinic legend there were only three events since the Creation that caused the Almighty to weep: the fall of Adam; the death of Moses; and the erection of the "Golden Calves" by Jeroboam. The usual interpretation of the legend runs in terms of divine disappointment at the loss or failure of a human individual in whom the very highest hopes had been placed;(1 ) and this accords perfectly with the exclusively edifying nature of all orthodox Biblical commentary. From ...
376. Alternatives in Science: The Secular Creationism of Heribert Nilsson [Journals] [Kronos]
... by the flourishing Institute for Creation Research is a significant phenomenon of the past decade (e .g . Morris and Rohrer 1981). The ICR has done good service in publicizing the scientific case against the academic orthodoxy of Darwinism. But it would be unwise for the world to accept what is urged by the followers of both Darwin and Moses that this Biblically inspired "scientific creationism" (e .g . Morris 1974) is the sole alternative to the reigning academic orthodoxy. The evolutionary establishment has always made good use of the argument that there is only one alternative to the theory of evolution and it is incredible: "the theory of evolution itself [is] a ...
377. Velikovsky's Sources Volume Two [Books]
... Typhon from V's is either a triumph of collective amnesia or an indication that V has been twisting Plutarch's texts by quoting them out of context. It should by now be abundantly plain that I myself prefer the latter explanation! Also on WIC p.93, V deals with the supposed link between the flight of Typhon and the Exodus of Moses from Egypt. Such a link is supportive of V's case insofar as the Exodus is supposed to have taken place during the earth's encounters with Typhon, the Venus Comet. The passage of Plutarch which is claimed to support this link is in section 31 of "Isis and Osiris", and reads as follows: "As for those ...

... other. [* Griffith's translation is reproduced here following the footnotes. Goyon's was omitted for lack of space.] In the biblical account, following the plagues of blood, frogs, lice, flies, a disease of the cattle, boils, hail, and locusts, comes the plague of darkness: "And the Lord said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt. And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days: They saw not one another, neither rose any from his place for ...

... an unbiased evaluation of Scripture, science and myth. This unique volume sheds new light on a number of peripheral topics as well: * What do extrabiblical records reveal about Noah's Flood? About the Tower of Babel? * When did the races of man originate? And how? * What was the "fire" that failed to consume Moses' Burning Bush? - that gave light above the Israelite Tabernacle during the Exodus? * And much more! "James Strickling belongs to the new wave of... neocatastrophists. His disclosures on certain subjects have won him a place in the pages of this newly-reconstructed science.... He has turned quite a few stones ...
