From: Carl Sagan & Immanuel Velikovsky by Charles Ginenthal CD Home | Contents Contents Part I An Improbable Tale The Historical Evidence Velikovsky's theory Part II Sagan's Problems First Second Third Fourth Fifth Sixth Seventh Eight Nine Ten Problems Appendices Conclusion INTRODUCTION PART I Discussing the reception of the scientific community to Darwin's Origin of Species, Thomas Huxley wrote, It was badly received by the generation to which it was first addressed, and the angry outpouring of angry nonsenses to which it gave rise is sad to think upon. But the present generation will probably behave just as badly if another Darwin should arise, and inflict upon them what the generality of mankind most hate- the necessity of revising their ...
242. The Origins of the Spartan State in the New Chronology [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... From: SIS Chronology and Catastrophism Workshop 1990 No 2 (Dec 1990) Home | Issue Contents The Origins of the Spartan State in the New Chronology by David Rohl The Rise of Sparta in the Period of Archaic Greece The development of Sparta as a major power in Archaic Greece has been a subject of considerable interest to scholars, not only because of the unusual society that evolved but also because so little can be gleaned from the available evidence as to the origins of that famous 6th and 5th century Spartan culture. Crucial to our understanding of the rise to power of the Spartan state is our need to establish the nature of Spartan society and, perhaps more specifically, to ...

... Vol 5 No 1 (1982) Home | Issue Contents Amenophis, Osarsiph and Arzu. More on the Third Intermediate Period of Egypt K. A. LEFLEM Sethos and Sethosis Manetho-Josephus confused the identities of Seti I (Sethos) and Seti II (Sethosis) by calling them both Aegyptus. It is clear, however, that this name originally refers to Seti II. His brother Armais (Amenmesse) should not be confused with the Hermeus associated with Sethos, who corresponds to Horemheb, contemporary of Seti I. The origin of the name Danaus is not known; it may have some connection with the city of Tanis, or possibly it could be a Hebrew loan-word meaning " ...

246. Cosmic Catastrophes and the Ballgame of the Sky Gods in Mesoamerican Mythology [Journals] [SIS Review]
... re-enactment of cosmic conflict between Venus and the sun' [9 ]. In spite of these differences, almost all scholars start from the assumption that the native Indians modelled their ballgame on the same regular and harmonious astronomical events which can be observed today. In this paper I will document that the mythological record of the Mesoamerican peoples link the origins of the ritual ballgame to natural disasters rather than a well-ordered nature [10]. The actualistic interpretation of the Mesoamerican ballgame According to generally accepted views, the players of the ancient Mesoamerican ballgames re-enacted natural events which occurred in cyclical manner (and which are still observable today) such as the movement of the sun, moon and the ...

248. William Comyns Beaumont: Britain's most eccentric and least known Cosmic Heretic [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Home | Issue Contents William Comyns Beaumont: Britain's most eccentric and least known Cosmic Heretic Did Immanuel Velikovsky knowingly present ideas someone else had developed many years earlier as his own? While this question seems bizarre even to his most ardent opponents, it was recently raised in a paper by Robert Stephanos [1 ]. Hardly anybody has questioned the originality of Velikovsky's ideas of planetary catastrophes in historical times. While some critics have said that Velikovsky was mean with his acknowledgements of earlier catastrophists [2 ] and others have argued that the claims of Velikovsky's originality were spurious because earlier authors had written about cometary catastrophes [3 ], many SIS members still believe that Velikovsky was the first major ...
... , where heroes and seers gained the greatest knowledge. This knowledge was only imparted to specially selected persons and then by gradual degrees, novitiates having to undergo the most severe tests and rites before admission to initiation into their innermost secrets, to betray which meant excommunication and death. Druidism was, indeed, the father of Freemasonry, a system originally for the acquisition and retention of all occult knowledge for the aggrandizement of the ruling caste. It was a system with its roots deep into the most remote times. Nothing revealed must be disclosed! Bishop Percy (in his preface to Mallet's Northern Antiquities) dilates on "that remarkable air of secrecy and mystery with which the Druids concealed ...

Saturn was the only god who was said to have been born; who lived on Earth among men, preaching and teaching; who died; was buried; who descended to the netherworld; who rose from the dead and eventually ascended into heaven. If the tale sounds familiar, you now know its origin.- Dwardu Cardona, San Jose, August 1980. Introduction Among other things, Worlds in Collision presented- within the framework of a cosmic catastrophic scenario- a compelling case for a common astral origin of the world's religions.
