Thanks for the pings. I've read both Worlds in Collision and Ages in Chaos and found the latter a good deal easier reading. Both provocative and no one can fault V's methods even if some of his conclusions may seem a stretch. At least they were for me.

It seems apparent that academia and the Scientific Community™ are in a symbiotic relationship with government funding and dinomedia propagandists, not to mention the gatekeepers at scientific journals. To what purpose is the question I have. What is there to gain by stifling dissent from the collective conventional wisdom of the scientific cabal? Mostly a rhetorical question I've been asking for years. I'm sure there are some "indsiders" on this forum that have a pretty good idea concerning the whys of this scam but I've yet to see a reasonable answer.

Just wondering out loud if the modern day scientific cabal is Galileo's Catholic Church? Their "religious dogma" has to be protected at all costs? Is this about power? Prestige? Seems unlikely it's just about $$$'s.

BTW Civ, nice workaround on getting this article posted. ;^)

Thanks for the ping. I’ll always respect Velikovsky, the vast range of his knowledge base and the independence of his thought amaze me, and have for decades since I first read his popular books.

“Government science” has really given itself a black eye with the global warming idiocy.
