... Martian catastrophes and cosmic phenomena with a period that, particularly under Ramses II, had actually become very busy in taking up repairing the havoc Mars had wrought on its final visit,* and (2 ) would at the same stroke, of course, remove from that catastrophic time exactly those dynasties (e .g . of appropriately different religion) that are the most noteworthy of having ruled the country during that unsafe century. Needless to say, such divergence by our historians, who by the same step are introducing the "Hittites" again as a separate entity, will lead to all sorts of difficulties in other fields, and in the best tradition of conventional quarrels, ...
742. Comptinology and Tohu-bohu [Books] [de Grazia books]
... to believe that nursery rhymes evolve over great lengths of time, this may not be the case. It may rather be that nursery rhymes begin shortly after a set of events, to put the population, the young and thereafter unconsciously everyone, into a mood of dreamwork, letting life go on in a community of memories, without heavy religious ritual every time a disturbing line of thought occurs. The rhymes are a friendly mocking of the sacred. Religious chants began even sooner, right away with humanization, we think, and within a generation the mocking fantastic nursery poetry commences. We are helped to maintain this theory by adhering to a larger theory, which is that mankind ...

... article of faith for their time, till Lyell and Darwin brought about its downfall. The belief that divine intervention was the cause of the global destructions and of successive creations' (necessary to explain the continuity of life) was the great weakness of the nineteenth century's `catastrophists'. Lyellism and Darwinism were thus as much a liberation from religious dogmatism as a step towards comprehension of the processes of evolution of the Earth and its living creatures. Uniformitarianism, however, did not completely supersede Catastrophism. The twentieth century saw a revival of it. Several new theories were proposed. Amongst the `rebels' we may cite H. Horbiger, his follower, H. S. ...

... in the hypothesis. Vance Maverick (maverick@cs.berkeley.ecu) writes: > Who gets to decide what themes are "broadly recurring"? > What are the criteria? Is there a standard reference, > preferably a non-Saturnist referenced A good question. When it comes to general overviews, I am impressed with the comparative religion work done out of the University of Chicago, originally under the direction of Mircea Eliade, but with contributions from many specialists. One of the by-products is the Encyclopaedia of Religion. But keep in mind that numerous ancient texts are available in English translation. One does not have to be dependent on comparative mythologists to discover that there is ...
748. Catastrophism And Evolution. Ch.15 Cataclysmic Evolution (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... Adam, to redeem humankind from which, the Son of Man came into this world; also to the view that beasts have no souls and therefore a barrier stands between man and animal. The emotions of this protracted controversy were spent on the issue: Is there evolution or is there not? More and more scientists subscribed to evolution; religious minds clung to the belief that there had been no change since the creation of the world. Actually the debate was between liberals and conservatives in the matter of science. The radicals did not participate; for catastrophism was dying out with the generation of the founders and classicists of geological science. Cuvier died in 1832; in England, ...

... the stories, characters and adventures narrated by mythology concentrate on the active powers among the stars, who are the planets." [1 ] In recent years signs abound that other scholars are arriving at similar opinions. Linda Schele, arguably the most important Mayanist working in the field today, wrote as follows of the intimate link between Maya religion and astronomy: "It seems that the interaction of astronomy and mythology was common in other cultures as well [as it was among the Maya]. Scholars working in South America have found similar kinds of systems in the Amazon...The Maya may have been using a way of thinking about the sky and using it in ...
