... the ages.(He uses the term as, for instance, H.D . Lasswell uses the term "political man," as the "pure" or obsessed type of actor in history.) Where we employ the term "supernatural," Eliade uses the term "sacred." "For religious man," he writes, "the world always presents a supernatural valence, that is, it reveals a modality of the sacred." Every bit of the cosmos has its sacrality. "In a distant past" (but why not include today?) "all of man's organs and physiological experiences, as well as all his acts, had a ...

393. Can Worlds Collide? [Journals] [Kronos]
... in the Sky, the Good Doctor in 1950 portrayed a lone archaeologist whose wild theories about Earth's past not only outraged the establishment but left him in the position of being quite literally the only thinker in the entire galaxy who had surmised the actual truth; furthermore, the essential clue to this truth had to be dredged out of ancient religious writings. Moreover, in what the Science Fiction Writers of America have voted the best science fiction short story of all time, Asimov's 1941 Nightfall, the Good Doctor in his early period treats us to the vivid spectacle of an unusual cosmic alignment (specifically, a rare multiple-sun/planetary configuration) which, once every 2050 years, brings ...

... half-frozen morasses. But the discovery of thousands of skeletons and mangled carcasses in Alaska was to shatter this argument. `Most of the bodies of the animals had been torn and twisted by some violent cataclysm before being frozen in the enveloping muck .. .. The archaeologists also found mammoth's meat which was still in an edible state', writes F. C. Hibben.13 Elsewhere the same author writes: `The Pleistocene period ended in death. This was no ordinary extinction of a vague geological period which fizzled to an uncertain end. This death was catastrophic and all-inclusive' (Italics by present author).14 The skeletons and the torn carcasses were intermingled with numerous ...

... From: Horus Vol. 2 No. 3 (Fall 1986) Home | Issue Contents On Number as Artifact (Part 3: Conclusion)Fred Fisher There is a longstanding cultural connection between the spiral and the labyrinth In a pithy paragraph in his Prelude to Science, Richard Furnald Smith writes, The first day of the lunar month may vary from place to place according to the visibility of the first crescent, but in general the system is simple and uniform. Anyone can tell the date in any given month simply by noting the phase of the moon. There is one maddening defect, however. The lunar months and the solar year do not come out even. ...

... From: Aeon V:1 (Nov 1997) Home | Issue Contents Vox Popvli Some Thoughts on the Saturnian Sun and Polar Column Mike Twose, from Toronto, Ontario, writes: In reading Ev Cochrane's interesting article on the Milky Way, [1 ] it occurred to me that no one, that I know of, has delved into the conditions that must have influenced the gases and dust that must have stretched between Earth and Saturn during the time of the Saturnian configuration. [2 ] In the beginning, the difference in electrical charge between the two planets must have been quite large. The flow of current through the ionized gases would have been enough to create ...
397. How Stable Is the Solar System? [Journals] [Pensee]
... the authority of a thousand is not worth the humble reasoning of a single individual."- Galileo Galilei "Is it not the case that at first a new idea is regarded as not true, and later, when accepted, as not being new?"- Immanuel Velikovsky Ages in Chaos,. ix, 1952. In his writings Velikovsky contends that the solar system was not always stable, nor is it in the same state as that in which it originated; therefore it has a history. The Earth, as a member of this unstable system, has repeatedly been a participant in some discontinuous changes. A central feature of this theory is that these changes have ...

... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 2002:2 (Feb 2003) Home | Issue Contents Forum Electric Universe Wal Thornhill Wal Thornhill responds to Eric Crew My friend Eric Crew writes (C &CR 2001:2 , p. 39) that the theory of solar nuclear reactions is so well-established and supported by theory, observations and experiment that I have not found a better idea'. If by well-supported' is meant the truckloads of books and papers written on the subject and a show of expert hands, then Eric is probably right. However, if we always allow the sheer weight of publications and opinion to deter us from re-examining our beliefs, then scientific progress ...
400. My Challenge to Conventional Views in Science [Journals] [Pensee]
... not set out to confront the existing views with a theory or hypothesis and to develop it into a competing system. My work is first a reconstruction, not a theory; it is built upon studying the human testimony as preserved in the heritage of all ancient civilizations- all of them in texts bequeathed beginning with the time man learned to write, tell in various forms the very same narrative that the trained eye of a psychoanalyst could not but recognize as so many variants of the same theme. In hymns, in prayers, in historical texts, in philosophical discourses, in records of astronomical observations, but also in legend and religious myth, the ancients desperately tried to convey ...
