... Group Report, C&CW 1995:2 p. 6; ISIS Occasional Publication III p. 13). The reason for downdating the inscription so much further is that the Hasmoneans used the old Hebrew script (e .g . on coins and in a few of the Dead Sea scrolls) and it is difficult to distinguish their writing from supposedly 7th century BC forms. The authors, J Rogerson and P Davies, who are both theologians, have challenged palaeographers to refute their case. Replies have already appeared in BA 1996 pp. 233-7 and BAR 1997:2 , pp. 41-50 - the counter arguments look strong. Noah's Flood? In mid-December 1996 a BBC2 ...
622. Aeon Volume V, Number 2: Contents [Journals] [Aeon]
... , often themselves as contradictory as the deity's attested nature. Cochrane, on the other hand, demonstrates how these antithetical descriptions of the goddess can be explained by a single theory when the deity is viewed as a comet-like body and set against the Saturn thesis. PAGE 43 Ancient Greeks in America- by Alban Wall A short excursion into the writings of Plutarch leading to the conclusion that the ancient Greeks not only traveled to the American continent, but also made contact with its natives. PAGE 63 Lucid Dreaming and Visualization Techniques in The Sacred Tales of Aelius Aristides- by David Walter Leinweber The Greek dream temples of Asklepios, as portrayed in The Sacred Tales of Aristides, form the ...
623. The Seer of Our Time. Part 2 (Oedipus and Akhnaton) [Velikovsky]
... , in which Freud described religion - all religion - as a kind of neurosis of fear and compulsion. He omitted to use the scalpel of psychoanalysis on Akhnaton. He also failed to realize that sun worship cannot be termed monotheism, but only monolatry. And unless his inner motives are understood, one is equally baffled by Freud's insistence on writing and publishing as his last book - almost as his last testament - his degradation of Moses. He degraded him by denying him originality; simultaneously he degraded the Jewish people by denying them a leader of their own race, for he made Moses an Egyptian; and finally he degraded the Jewish God, making of Yahweh a local deity ...

625. Sagan's tenth problem: The circularization of the orbit of Venus (Carl Sagan & Immanuel Velikovsky) [Books]
... has a moon, Charon, it too must be captured; it is hardly conceivable that if Pluto was a moon of Neptune, it also had a satellite orbiting it. In Vol. 12, p. 61, Owen tells us Phoebe, a moon of Saturn, because of its irregular orbit must be a captured satellite. He writes about Saturn's smaller moons, "it has frequently been suggested that these small, icy satellites are similar in composition to the nuclei of comets" and thus, they would be captured bodies. In Vol. 14, p. 276, Owen informs us that the five major satellites of Uranus "are thought to be captured objects" ...
626. Tutankhamen and Assyrian Art [Articles]
... a decade. There was a professor named Dr. Alan Gowans(?) from the University of Victoria, in their Art Department, who was once favorably disposed towards the revised chronology. He had a sabbatical back in 1972 which allowed him to go to Harvard for a year, he's only been heard of twice since, once to write a letter of protest to PENSEE about his objectivity, and the second was after Peoples of the Sea came out, to write to Dr. Velikovsky that he once again thought he may be right, but he has not been heard of since. Those writing in the area of Dr. Velikovsky's historical revision are primarily historians or archaeologists ...
627. "Let There be Light" [Journals] [Kronos]
... light of Genesis to have been entirely different and distinct from the light shed by the common heavenly bodies.(57) (Needless to say, this does nothing to dispel the other seeming absurdity of having the Earth created prior to the Sun, the Moon, and the stars.)(58) Up till the time of this writing, Velikovsky has not yet published the full details concerning Saturn's flare-up. But it appears to us that nothing better illustrates the "hatching" of the Cosmic Egg of myth and we can now more readily understand why the ancients referred to this ovum mundi as the "primordial star" of Creation. That the light of Genesis was not ...
628. Ancient Transatlantic Contacts? A Review of Fell, Van Sertima, and Von Wuthenau [Journals] [Kronos]
... since geographical as well as historical variation needs to be considered. America B.C . is not only the most involved but the longest of the three books reviewed here. What makes it involved is the large number of languages and scripts treated, and its length follows from this involvement. Before dealing with the complex relations between speech and writing, however, let me note those of Fell's contentions which I find at once most original and most provocative. First among them is his insistence on the pivotal importance of the Iberian peninsula as a maritime launching-point for emigrations not only to America but to Ireland as well. Next is his convincing claim that the Ogamic script which preceded the ...
629. Forum [Journals] [Aeon]
... , like the "impossible" insect-like life-style of the naked mole-rat, and the pushing-the-possible design of the giraffe. (Recently, Stephen J, Gould revealed that Darwin actually endorsed Lamarck's explanation for the giraffe's long neck, but that no factual basis really exists for any "natural" explanation.) Edward J. Steele replies: I am writing to comment on some of the points raised by Alexander Mebane. From my reading of him, Karl Popper considered Darwin's achievement as sem-inal as it "broke with the past." However, he always considered Natural Selection as a metaphysical research program rather than a directly testable scientific theory. Darwin's theory enabled one to make sense of a ...
630. Problems of Electricity in Astronomy [Journals] [SIS Review]
... in such a way". Perhaps he was unaware at the time that C E R Bruce had explained how these galactic arms and bridges were formed, but he did not reply to my letter on this point. In "Violent Universe" by Nigel Calder (1969) neither magnetism nor electricity is mentioned in the index, but he writes "electric currents and magnetic fields appear to play a relatively minor part in the drama of the universe, but this may be a mistaken impression....". He did not reply to my letter telling him about Bruce's views on this subject. In 1940, Dr I Velikovsky realised that large scale electrical discharges between astronomical ...
