... )-at least up until the last few centuries. By analyzing common elements of design and form that appear in my tracings or sketches of original works of mythical and religious art, I hope to demonstrate that these elements not only offer more evidence of this instability, but also will contribute to our understanding of the nature of this instability ... Figure 7, is my depiction of a trismatic Egyptian lotus as it is being offered to the lion-headed goddess, Sekhmet. The lotus serves as a frequent prop in Oriental religions as well.

... , use tools, co-operate in hunting and even commit murder. Much has been written about human sacrifice yet, despite the evidence, societies that ostensibly no longer practise such religious rites persist in repressing acceptance of their earlier participation in such behaviour and roll their eyes in condemnatory horror at cultures which still do (or did, witness the Spanish ...

... , Vehkovksy appeared to cast aside the most treasured assumptions of the scientific age. And worst of all, he drew the better part of his testimony from early mythical and religious texts-an outlandish reservoir of "evidence" in the opinion of most physical scientists. Yet it is a fact that Velikovsky's case was persuasive enough to convince a good many ... and Reader's Digest. Not just Velikovsky's conclusions, but the approach itself was patently misplaced, at least in the eyes of those who had long ago dismissed ancient astrology, religion, and myth as valueless to modern science. That Velikovsky gathered his evidence from such untrustworthy sources, then used it to rewrite the history of the solar system, ...

... water. 2b. Religion. "A second cause of Velikovsky's popularity involves . . . the let's-not-get-God-angry' syndrome."

"This means that most free-thinking adults . ... ), in which our culture responds to the racial knowledge of catastrophe by erecting conscious activities of denial (science) and unconscious outlets of remembering (art, myth, religion). This would explain perfectly Asimov's paradoxical paranoid behavior, as well as that of Shapley, Sagan, Payne-Gaposchkin, Menzel, et al. --it is that Velikovsky's ...

... In fact, the first Yom Kippur service I attended was in Berlin, in the thirties, after we got married. But as children growing up, except for compulsory religious training in school (under Austrian law), we never had any religious observance. We knew very well that we were Jewish and were quite comfortable about it. ... ; there is no real clash of interests. But a Jew ought not to get himself baptized and attempt to turn Christian because it is essentially dishonest, and the Christian religion is every bit as bad as the Jewish."38 Wortis agreed in principle but not in practice; he supported the Stalin-idolizing state that financed the Greek Orthodox Church ...
