... reasoning, would certainly have to bet that Velikovsky was right. Finally, we may appropriately conclude this section with a statement by Chris Sherrerd: "The basic issue is not whether we can prove the plausibility or non-plausibility of Dr. Velikovsky's hypothesis, but rather how much do the ancient historical records and oral traditions have to say to the physical sciences? The answer is- a great deal, to him who is willing to set aside his bondage to the religious dogmas of scientistic humanism long enough to listen, and to seriously subject to honest scientific investigations what he hears." II Sagan's second appendix approaches accuracy only when he admits that one of the often quoted "scientific proofs ...

... Journal of the History of Philosophy. He is also a major contributor to the book Velikovsky Reconsidered. George Robert Talbott (D .Sc., Indiana Northern Grad. School); Dr. Talbott is both an interdisciplinary scientist and author whose experiential background is about evenly divided between research and engineering applications. His scope and competence in mathematical physics and physical chemistry are evident from his two-volume Philosophy and Unified Science, published in 1977 by the international firm of Ganesh and Co. in Madras. Dr. David Lee Hilliker's introduction to this work lists some additional publications of Dr. Talbott, including a book in thermodynamics (Electronic Thermodynamics). Dr. Talbott also holds a basic ...
623. The Science of Evolution (Part I) [Journals] [Kronos]
... (the traditional way) or to equate it with genetics (the modern way). The widespread hostility now being directed by many evolutionists at the merely historical evidence embodied in the fossil record is treated elsewhere.(1 ) Inductive generalizations, based on an admittedly fragmentary sample from the past, can never result in a science comparable to physics and chemistry. Indeed, only physics and chemistry can be sciences in that sense. It is no wonder, then, that molecular genetics has come to the fore as a major candidate for the science of evolution. The emphasis on genetics as the heart of the science of evolution is perhaps best examined in a recent book primarily devoted ...

627. Thera Revisited: A Final Rejoinder [Journals] [Kronos]
... M. Greenberg, "Atlantis," Pensée IVR VI (Winter 1973-74), p. 53, emphasis in original]. Some scholars - Bennett, Galanopoulos, Goedicke, and I. Wilson among them - have suggested a link between the volcanic eruption of Thera and the Hebrew Exodus from Egypt with its attendant plagues. From the physical evidence, however, Stiebing [op. cit., pp. 73 ff.] has recently discredited this theoretical connection. Moreover, a redating of the Theran eruption to ca.1600 B.C . - a date independently supported by recent radiocarbon results* [P . P. Betancourt and H. N. Michael, ...

... have had prior to Apollo. The answer was none at all, or extremely little. No one disputed the fact that previous theory had provided no clue. No one disputed the stated assumption that the RM had been acquired, astronomically speaking, very early. Enormous Burden of Doubt Again on November 10, 197 1, I attended a Physics Colloquium at UCSD where Urey reviewed "Evidence Relating to the Origin of the Moon." He opened with the statement: "I do not know the origin of the moon, I'm not sure of my own or any other's models, I'd lay odds against any of the models proposed being correct." The impression thereafter was that ...
629. Straka: Science or Anti-Science? [Journals] [Pensee]
... Collision, since after three alleged readings he asks why Velikovsky omits mentioning Atlantis. NASA did not print its report on the Mariner II mission by gleaning from newspaper accounts. The announcement by Dr. Homer Newell of NASA on February 26, 1963, and later the official publication of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, were based on observation of the physical properties of the cloud enshrouding the planet: this cloud was found to be 15 miles thick and situated 45 miles above the ground, ca. -25 F at the top, and over+ 200 F at the bottom, yet homogenous in its physical qualities throughout. According to Professor L.D . Kaplan of the JPL, as ...
630. On The Lecture Circuit [Journals] [Pensee]
... Tel. (408) 742-7505. Pensee has already noted (Fall, 1973) that the University of Lethbridge in Lethbridge, Alberta, will become the first educational institution to grant Velikovsky an honorary degree. The convocation ceremonies, at which Velikovsky will be present, are to be held May 11, 1974. Members of the psychology and physics departments at the university are tentatively organizing a seminar on the theme, "collective amnesia," scheduled for two days prior to the convocation. Velikovsky is also tentatively planning to participate in the seminar. A local paper, The Herald, carried some lively discussion of Velikovsky's forthcoming visit to the campus. A former United Church minister took ...
