<
During a seance during Bill Clinton's speech at the
Democrat National Conventon n Denver last night., we were
again able to reach the late, great Dr. Immanuel Velikovsky.
<
(Granted, he's still a bit bitter about how the pseudoscientists'
grandpas persecuted his hallowed name and how today's batch
are following in their disgusting, dishonest footsteps.)
<
Well, anyway, Dr. Velikovsky once again agreed to read from
his masterpiece, "Worlds in Collision," written more than
a half-century ago.
<
So let's get right to it...
(Lights dim, then it's pitch black, Then there are about 20
agonizing seconds of silence.)
>
"Hurry up, Dr. Velikovsky, the floor is your's. We don't
have all night."
>
Hmm! Hmm! Okay!
<
Worlds in Collision, 'er
<
WORLDS IN COLLISION
<
Well, here goes!
<
In a immense universe a little globe revolves around...
<
Dr. Velikovsky! Sorry to interrupt! Can you PLEASE speak
a little louder. Some of these pseudos are hard of hearing.
<
SURE, HOW'S THIS, ED?
<
Uh, well, I think you're TOO loud now, Immanuel.
>
How's this?
<
"Good. Real good!:
<
Are you ready?
<
We can't wait!
<
Well, here goes...
<
My name is Immanuel Velikovsky and I died a long time ago,
and back in 1950, when the Phillies won the pennant, my
book, "World in Collision,"
was published and ..
<
"Dr. Velikovsky, we know all that. JUST read from your book, okay?".
<
Hmmm! Well, okay!

<
> WORLDS IN COLLISION
<
In an immense universe a little globe revolves around a star; it is
the third in the row -- Mercury, Venus, Earth -- of the planetary
family.
<
It is of a solid core covered over most of its surface with liquid,
and it has a gaseous envelope. Living creatures fill the liquid;
other living creatures fly in the gas; and still others creep and
walk
upon the ground on the bottom of the gaseous ocean.
<
Man, a being of erect stature, thinks himself the prince of creation.
He felt like this long before he, by his own efforts, came to know how
to fly on wings of metal around the globe. He felt godlike long before
he could talk to his fellow-man on the other side of the globe.
<
Today he can see the microcosm in a drop and the elements in the
stars. He knows the laws governing the living cell with its
chromosomes, and the laws governing the macrocosm of the
sun, moon, planets and stars.
<
He assumes that gravitation keeps the planetary system together,
man and beast on their planet, the sea within its borders.
<
For millions and millions of years, he maintains, the planets have
rolled along the same paths, and their moons around them, and man in
these eons has arisen from a one-cell infusorium all the long way up
to the ladder to his status of Homo sapiens.
<
Is man's knowledge now nearly complete? Are only a few more steps
necessary to conquer the universe: to extract the energy of the atom
-- since these pages were written this has already been done -- to
cure cancer, to control genetics, to communicate with other planets
and learn if they have living creatures, too
>.
Here begins Homo ignoramus. He does not know what life is or how it
came to be and whether it orginated form inorganic matter.
He does not know whether other planets of this sun or of other suns
have life on them, and if they have, whether the forms of life there
are like those around us, ourselves included.
<
He does not know how this solar system came into being, although he
has built up a few hypotheses about it. He knows only that the solar
system was constructed billions of years ago.
<
He does not know what this mysterious force of gravitation is that
holds him and his fellow man on the other side of the planet with
their feet on the ground, although he regards the phenomenon itself as
"the law of laws."
<
He does not know what the earth looks like five miles under his feet.
He does not know how mountains came into existence or what caused the
emergence of the continents, although he builds hypotheses about
these, nor does he know from where oil came -- again hypotheses.
<
He does not know why, only a short time ago, a thick glacial sheet
pressed upon most of Europe and North America, as he believes it did;
nor how palms could grow above the polar circle, nor how it came about
that the same fauna fill the inner lakes of the Old and the New
World.
<
He does not know where the salt in the sea came from.
>
Although man knows that he has lived on this planet for millions
of years, he finds a recorded history of only a few thousand years.
And even these few thousand years are not sufficently well known.
<
Why did the Bronze Age preceed the Iron Age even though iron is more
widely distributed over the world and its manufacture is simpler than
that of the alloy of copper and tin?
>
By what mechanical means were structures of immense blocks built on
the high mountains of the Andes?
>
What caused the legend of the Flood to orginate in all the countries
of the world? Is there any adequate meaning to the term
"antediluvian"? From what experiences grew the eschatological pictures
of the end of the world?
<
In this work, of which the present book is the first part, some of
these questions will be answered, but only at the cost of giving
up certain notions now regarded as sacred laws in science --
the millions of years of the present constitution of the solar system
and the harminous revolution of the earth -- with all
their implications as regards the theory of evolution ...

<
Hey, Ed, Sorry! Al Einstein is paging me, so I've got to go. Maybe
I'll be free on the weekend to come back and read some more.
Gee, I hope the pseudos liked it so far.
<
"Oh, I don't know if they liked it. Actually, I'm sure they'd throw
eggs at you if they could only see you. After all, they're chips
off the old blockhead."

Dr. Velikovsky, wait, take these ,omd=3Dboggling photos with
you and show yjr,it to Albert (Einstein who was found dead in
his study with an open copy of "Worlds in Collision" on his
