... eruptions (within the past 10 Myrs) show it is still hot and active. There has even been a double-take on how the iron oxide, which colours the surface red, got there; it used to be thought that it was the result of chemical reactions in warm pools of water in the planet's youth, but it now appears ... to 10% of the speed of light from its poles, along with powerful X-ray jets. Astronomers are at a loss to explain how the matter in the universe apparently shifted suddenly from being densely clustered to being evenly dispersed. However, what they regard as the early, clustered material is because of their interpretation of its redshift, so ...

... lost its atmosphere and water in its later interactions with Venus and the Earth in the formation of the Polar Configuration. It was then reported to have developed its characteristic rusty red appearance. Mars may have been responsible for much of the water that came from the heavens and also the bloody, rusty appearance of the water at times. It ...

163. On the Nature of Natural Selection and Speciation [Journals] [Aeon]
... would be either clearly present or completely absent, realizing that if heredity were to be understood, a trait would have to be easily recognizable. His choices were color (red or white), stature (tall or dwarf), and seed shape (smooth or wrinkled). When fertilization occurred, Mendel found that three different color combinations ... ; sampling error; nonrandom mating; and differential fertility- also called natural selection. These factors, working together, are viewed as the mechanism of evolution- and the shifting of gene frequencies is called evolution, even though the shift could be back and forth between two varieties of a characteristic within a species. Evolution in this case is ...

... it did, the results would be so cataclysmic as to leave drastic evidence in the fossil record" (emphasis added- see Earth in Upheaval) . Even Lewis Carroll's Red Queen would have been stupefied! The January 22, 1976 issue of Nature (pp. 177-179) likewise contained material that inadvertently tends to support Velikovsky's proposed model for ... however, Lippman ignored extraterrestrial phenomena as a factor responsible for terrestrial upheaval resulting in biospherical and biological change. Instead, Lippman endorsed Charles Hapgood's thesis that, owing to crustal shift, the surface of the Earth was subject to rapid changes- a mechanism which the former considered plausibly sufficient to force evolutionary changes in life. Lippman's incisive commentary on ...

The scene now shifts to Minnesota in 1898. A brief outline is needed of life on a Minnesota farm in 1898. A dollar a day was the wage for farm labor, so ...

... to the possibility and/or validity of Velikovsky's reconstruction. "The shortest route from Thebes to Jerusalem is not along the Nile and the coast of the Mediterranean; the Red Sea route is only a little more than half its distance: from Thebes to Coptos, a short distance up the Nile, and then to el-Qoseir, a harbor ... categorically: "The civil calendar of 365 days was not tied to Sothis at its introduction but was tied rather to some yearly occurrence which was variable so that the gradual shift forward of the civil calendar would not be immediately apparent."

The small dimensions of this shift indicate the pull was short term (as in centuries to millennia) rather than eons. Furthermore the effect is relaxing, and in geological terms the distorting influence must ...

... which has had no continuous yearly rainfall since about 3,500BC [101]. Before then, in Neolithic (middle Holocene) times, the (currently bare) Red Sea Hills were well wooded and irrigated by rivers - now nearly all dry - well stocked with fish. Several distinct predynastic Egyptian cultures successfully availed themselves of those conditions ... , fluctuating glaciers and snow-lines, recurrent volcanic and seismic episodes and cycles of desertification. All these have either engendered or resulted from often quite acute climate changes - including monsoonal shifts - with widespread effects on plant and animal life and also human activity.

... world can compare in violence and ferocity with this catastrophe. Geikie indicated its procedure. Masses of basalt, sometimes 20 ft. or more in depth, overlie the Old Red Sandstone, and point to a direct downfall, or rain, in liquid form from Skye to Ulster, where no volcanic cones exist, although some volcanoes were created ... plateaux could have proceeded," and advanced reasons which he thought must point "not to a few great volcanoes but to many minor vents breaking out one after another and shifting from district to district. Only by such distribution of the foci of discharge can we account for the continuity and horizontality of the basalts." A celestial visitation had ...
