... whirlwinds and darkness. But of course the prayer does not tell us that Venus did cause these things. As we have seen, in the actual prayer, these phenomena' are more metaphors that are not related either to each other or to the planet Venus. Or at least, the phenomena' are no more closely related to the physical planet than are the justice and righteousness of 1.25 or the healing powers of 1.40. In fact we are back to the now familiar distinction between the planet Venus and the goddess Ishtar. The two are not synonymous, and the prayer is to the goddess and not the planet. That is why so much of ...

573. Comparing Magnetic Fields: Neptune and Uranus [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... important to point out that the test is not only to validate or invalidate Electro-Gravitic theory, but it is also a test of whether or not gravity is the sole force responsible for celestial motions. Those truly dedicated to science should welcome this crucial experiment respecting this astrophysical question. The validity of a scientific theory cannot be decided on paper by physical equations. As V. A. Firsoff stated: Mathematics is a wonderful tool of the mind, but it has its limitations. Mathematical reasoning can bring to light relationships and conditions which would be impossible, or very difficult to discover in any other way. Its conclusions are presented in the numerical form, which permits comparisons to be ...
574. Measurements of the Electromagnetic Properties of "Space" [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... popular scientific opinion. One can argue, for example, that the rate at which signals are propagated from space vehicles to the Earth indicates that the free space permittivity and permeability hold throughout "empty space." Or that there is nothing in "space" which would allow shifts in these quantities, that "empty space" has no physical properties, and so on. But Eddington, who was certainly as aware as any physicist today of the meaning of the gravitational constant, derived it (gamma) from scalars and electrical quantities. No one is arguing about the Cavendish Experiment, or about the routine affairs of space guidance. Our proposal is designed only to encourage and ...
575. Proof of A Celestial Counterforce to Gravity [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... . Furthermore, the existence of the gaseous type of structure depends on elastic collisions and the impact of stars upon stars. Indeed, a rather large degree of [stellar] fragmentation could be expected. Together with the large kinetic energies that would be required to counterbalance the weight of the overlying layers of stars, this would result in a physical condition in the central regions of the clusters- very different from that existing in the outlying regions. Here, again, no such effect is observed. (11) The evidence points to a condition for which gravitational theory has no answer. The only explanation concordant with the facts is that there must be a celestial counterforce to gravity. ...
576. Hardy, Tess and Psychic Scotoma [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... psychological phenomenon and can serve, metaphorically, as one of Hardy's major insights into the human situation. The psychological phenomenon in question is what psychoanalyst Immanuel Velikovsky called mental scotoma.(7 ) To an ophthalmologist, a scotoma is a partial blindness: some segment within the field of vision does not register upon the person's retina due to a physical defect.(8 ) A psychological scotoma, then, is the inability to recognise certain facts or to observe certain situations- even though, normally, these should be obvious. This failure is assumed to be due to the inability of one's ego to deal with some painful occurrence, which is erased from consciousness. The cost of such ...
577. Arctic Tundra Mammoth Steppe Or Velikovskian Poleshift? [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... is due, Howorth fully understood that large mammoths and other megaherbivores could not have lived on tundra vegetation stating: "The larger portion of North Siberia is now a naked tundra, on which no tree will grow; swept by terrible icy winds, and covered with moss, sprinkled with a few humble flowers. On such feeding-ground it is physically impossible, as has been said, that elephants and rhinoceroses could exist. They cannot graze close to the ground like oxen. They live on the foliage and small branches of trees, and on juicy canes and long grasses (which grow shoulder-high in the jungles and the beds of African rivers), and would starve on one of ...

... the gravel. The stone is a hard cemented sandstone of a similar nature, as far as can be ascertained, as sarsen stones which are found in various places in surface deposits in southern England and western Europe and were much used in the building of megalithic monuments. Although a lot of work has apparently been done on the chemical and physical nature of such stone, it is obvious that the experts still have no idea of how, where or when such formations came into existence. It depends on silica being deposited out of solution in order to bind the original sand grains together and over half a dozen theories as to how this could take place have been put forward. ...

... . It should be entered into the annals of the Velikovsky Affair as yet another derogatory review of Velikovsky's works, written with gay abandon and the merest sprinkling of fact. Hoffman writes: "I want to say at once that there is no geophysical or astrophysical evidence for Velikovsky's scenarios." And then he follows up with: "His physics involves leaps of logic worthy of Evel Knievel." From these highlights to the conclusion, sparing other slights on the way, for in conclusion Hoffman writes: "Today nuclear weapons threaten to annihilate the human race. Mankind in Amnesia is a disgusting book because it infuses this threat with crack-pot psychology." The intelligent reader should conclude ...
