... him to adjust his message for the capture of the auditor. A sculptor molds a stone according to some inner vision; the stone adapts itself to the shape which had previously lived only within the sculptor's imagination, but at the same time the stone resists the changing of its shape and forces the sculptor to modify his vision; and the physical exertion of the sculptor affects the bones and muscles of his body. A scene assimilates the seer by forming his vision, just as the looker assimilates the light and makes it his own. There is a constant competition between parents within their progeny, each being trying to assimilate the other. "The characteristic qualities of both find themselves ...

... participated at the recent Oxford conference on archaeoastronomy and has prepared several papers on this subject which are currently awaiting publication. Thomas McCreery (B .Sc. - Hons. - Strathclyde University); After initially working in military applications of acoustics, Mr. McCreery was employed as an acoustical consultant in Europe. At present, he lectures in physics at Cardonald College, Glasgow, and is also leading a project to resurvey Scottish megalithic sites. Thomas Moulds; Mr. Moulds, a graduate of Glasgow School of Art, is one of the most distinguished artists at present working in the west of Scotland. Besides having held several successful exhibitions, he was also art editor of the ...
343. Meetings with Shulamit Kogan in Israel, March 2001. C&C Review 2002:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... March 2001 John Crowe General Discussions On a visit to Israel in 2001 I had the great pleasure of meeting Mrs Shulamit Kogan, one of Immanuel Velikovsky's two daughters. My hope was that during my visit I would be able to learn more about the Velikovsky's archive and of any possible plans to publish more of his work. Shulamit, a physics graduate, contributed some ideas to Velikovsky's early monograph Cosmos without Gravitation. Although now well into her 70s, she is highly active in the promotion of her father's work and had no hesitation in accompanying me on a long and fairly strenuous site visit to Tell Arad. There we met a friend of hers responsible for excavating this important archaeological ...

345. Ancient Near Eastern Chronology: To Revise or not to Revise? [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... of the rite of circumcision. It is unlikely that this rite originated in the second millenium by reason it has very ancient roots demonstrable by reason it is practised (until recently) by diverse hunter gatherer societies. This suggests its origins lay before dynastic Egypt (and the Egyptians practised circumcision) and so called civilisation in general. The wondrous physical phenomena of Exodus is duplicated in the mythology of dynastic Egypt, i.e . it was of mythic age long before Moses was extent. We must presume on that basis a very remote origin in human terms. At this point we may ask ourselves why should an event so long ago survive within the human psyche. Velikovsky has ...
346. The forgotten Velikovsky [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... 8 Sep 1995 18:09:33 GMT Thank you for coming clean. We both know that I'd seen this before. Remembering what a gentle soul Einstein was, and remembering that einstein did, in fact, know Velikovsky, his letter can be easily translated: "I paid close attention to what you wrote and can find no physical basis whatsoever for your ideas. I don't know nearly as much about mythology as I do about physics and so I enjoyed the myth part. I trust it is better founded than the physics." I rest my case. ...
347. Cataclysms of the Earth [Books]
... used are quite different. The 92 basic chemical elements of the earth (now sometimes listed as 102) are identified by the lengths of the light rays into which they metamorphose on being made incandescent. These chemical elements arrive on the earth as energy rays and return again to celestial space as energy rays. Based on the latest findings of physical and cosmic science it seems reasonable to postulate that everything in and on the earth, excepting its core, has been created within the past 4.6 billion years-including Iand, oceans, and atmosphere. These three entities are each composed of some or all of the 92 basic chemical elements, whose essences all become individual light and heat ...
348. The Ring About The Earth at 2300 BC [Journals] [SIS Review]
... the name of bow-star after identification with Ishtar [88]. The operative term in that sentence is after'. The common sign of Ishtar has also been interpreted as a crescent, linked to the Moon, because of its appearance. Again, I feel that this was a later identification, again based on the initial Ishtar appearance The Physical Formation of the Ring The final step is to discuss possibilities on how the ring could have been formed. The actual physical event leading to the formation of the ring is, of course, not known and may never be. My interest is only in reaching a minimum threshold to persuade the sceptical reader that such an event could have ...
349. On Morrison: Some Final Remarks (Forum) [Journals] [Kronos]
... that an atmosphere can be so dense as to damp out diurnal variations in received solar radiation when the planet's day is 2800 hours" is not "ridiculous" (Juergens, III, 120). For an atmosphere as massive as that of Venus, it is in fact obvious- a numerical exercise that most graduate students in astronomy or physics could carry out on the back of an envelope. Nor is the slightly higher cloud-top temperature on the night side of Venus relevant, since these values are, as noted by Juergens (III, 120) influenced by local weather in the upper atmosphere. On the other hand, to claim as Juergens does that internal heat provides the ...
350. Fragments of Myths of Culture Heroes [Books]
... Let me say at the outset that the fall of man', as commonly understood, is certainly not the original point of this myth. Only a primitive way of religious interpretation has read but of the biblical narrative such conceptions as: the coming of sin' in general, the incurring of the original sin', the curse of physical work, the pains of child-bearing, the reason for death, etc. For it should be noted that these points are not contained in the myths of the Book of Genesis at all, but are later teleological considerations in answer to such questions as: Why do we feel what is right but do wrong? Why do we have ...
