Right Whale states a true but horrifying proposition for academia- the reluctant admission that there may actually have been an earth shattering global cataclysm recently, most likely during a period that is referred to by archaeologists as “the bronze age discontinuity”. The catastrophist approach to archaeology and anthropology has been actively suppressed and vilified in academia in spite of growing evidence that the archaeological and geological data and comparative analysis of mythologies of ancient and contemporary peoples make the catastrophist interpretation of history the only rational and compelling one. Academia can accurately be categorized as a cesspool of ideology and grant funding turf protection.
Hear! Hear! Never a truer word spoken.
