"The evidence of catastrophism is all around you - not up your butt."

I didn't say that catastrophes never happened, or that they haven't affected the history of life. Of course they have; that's what this article is all about. I said that Velikovsky's particular claims were not based on observation but on his imagination, or delusions. They were wrong. He pulled them from his butt, essentially. He was a nut, and deserves his low status among scientists.
