... not limited to visitors of any one, or even any, religious attitude. In this city. . the past, the present, and the future all seem to jostle each other."(1 ) Surely, the curious minded must wonder what it was that engendered and inspired the concept of Jerusalem's holiness,* a word whose original meaning "is not clear, though [ the] view that the fundamental idea is one of separation' is still widely held. In usage the term holy' came to express the general notion of the godhead and in an early, though perhaps secondary sense, was applied to that which belonged to the sphere of deity, which ...
322. Indra [Journals] [Kronos]
... of Mars? Velikovsky understood the Maruts to have been "a brood of comets" born of the encounters(s ) between Venus and Mars. According to him, these comets then accompanied Mars as it supposedly swooped close to Earth in a series of near-collisions during the 8th and 7th centuries B.C .( 11) The mythological origin of the Maruts, as indicated above, does not bear this out. Although they eventually became Indra's companions, the Maruts owed their origin, not to Venus and/or Mars, but directly to Saturn/Agni-Rudra/Shiva(12) who fathered them. I am well aware of Bob Forrest's recent critique of Velikovsky as I ...
323. Fake Martian Meteorites & Nasa Martian Programs [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... From: SIS Internet Digest 1998:1 (June 1998) Home | Issue Contents Fake Martian Meteorites & Nasa Martian Programs http://houstonspacesociety.org/meteor/Lets try to use common sense approach and check main cornerstones of the theory of SNC's Martian origin for factual and logical inconsistencies. Jury members does not need to be a genetic experts to understand the difference in matching of the blood type and DNA matching. Contrary to what many "SNC Martian origin" scientists wish to think most of their theories, analyses and conclusions (in this particular case of course) are pretty easy to understand by any college graduate after some additional basic learning. Majority of ...
324. A Harbinger of the Exodus? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... surely have been recorded. Manasseh and Ephraim were Joseph's sons by an Egyptian mother, so Moses could hardly be charged with miscegenation. But if Moses married Zipporah while still married to a Nubian princess, he could have been accused of bigamy: only then does the biblical anecdote make sense. It is difficult not to conclude that the Torah originally included an account of Moses in Nubia similar to that of Josephus. Although the redactors later excised it to minimise Egyptian aspects of Moses's career, they overlooked this one crucial associated scriptural reference. The foregoing discussion finds sufficient consistencies between the Torah and Josephus to suggest that the latter deserves greater credibility than he is usually accorded. On that ...
325. The Science of Evolution (Concluded) [Journals] [Kronos]
... . 9). Not only does Grassé fail thereby to qualify as a scientist, no evidence against uniformitarianism could be used, because it fails to qualify as scientific. History is not allowed to refute scientific uniformitarianism . Of course Stansfield cannot consistently maintain his uniformitarian position. Old-fashioned paleontology does have a role to play: it is still the original ladder up which evolutionists climbed. They cannot yet kick it away, because they are still confronted by some extreme creationists, who deny that any evolution has occurred. Stansfield asks rhetorically: "Have the species of organisms presently inhabiting the earth existed since the origin of life, or have entirely different species existed at different points in geological ...
... is much smaller than the other outer planets being, perhaps significantly, within the size range of their larger moons. Charon, the only known satellite of Pluto, is not much less than half the size of the planet itself [1 ]; also, it appears to be made of ice and Pluto of rock, suggesting a separate origin for the two bodies [3 ]. Most satellites orbit their planet in the direction of rotation but Triton, the largest moon of Neptune, goes round the other way. Calculations indicate that it may eventually spiral in to collide with the planet [1 ]. Nereid, the only other moon of Neptune known before the 1989 Voyager ...
327. General Conclusions [Books]
... Acknowledgements | Notes And References | General Conclusions The time has now come to bring this book to an end. First we had a quick glance at the principles of orthodox geology and pointed out their weaknesses. We followed the changes that have taken place in the theory of evolution. We reviewed the way in which the science of meteoritics, originating in astronomy, geophysics, and geology, came into existence and the battles it has had to fight in order to demonstrate clearly and to convince the scientific world that giant meteorites have in fact struck our planet. We have followed the development and perfection of new methods of investigation which have resulted first in the positive identification of fossil meteoritic ...
328. The Myth of Osiris (Moons, Myths and Man) [Books]
... alteration itself amounted to a reconciliation of the artificial year of 360days (twelve subdivisions of 30 days each) with the solar year of 365 days (neglecting the 5" 48' 46" which make up its real length). But that does not help us at all; neither 360nor 365 have any relation to lunar time. The original change of the calendar system must have been different. So we are probably nearer the mark if we connect the introduction of a new year' with the advent of our Moon. The appearance of this powerful and convenient luminary must have put all time-calculation upon a new footing. The myth tells us that a fractionof every day of the ...

Bass, a Rhodes Scholar, is Professor of Physics and astronomy at Brigham Young University, Utah and a Senior Editor of KRONOS; he is the principal inventor of the Topolotron, or "magnetic bottle", and originator of a theorem in celestial mechanics confirmed by Ovenden under the name of the Principle of Least Interaction Action. DR LYNN E. ROSE Even though this book claims that biblical and other records describe catastrophic interplanetary collisions that have occurred within historical times (thus making comparison with Velikovsky inevitable), it must be emphasised that these authors differ radically ...
