Glenn, John and Pim,
You are unanimous in the propriety of requiring the presentation of
credentials before giving one leave to speak. This was not mentioned in
the welcoming communication on protocol from Phillip Johnson. You need
to present your case and prevail upon him, if you can, to change his
protocol.
As the protocol presently stands, "Everyone should feel free to sound
off, but the discussion should at all times be courteous and nobody
should feel badgered or harassed."
In keeping with the protocol, I shall continue to "sound off" based on
the examination of evidence and the fidelity of conclusions compelled by
the evidence.
As the protocol presently stands, "...interesting publications,
thoughts on new developments, and so on, are particularly encouraged."
In keeping with the protocol, Petersen's New Insights to Antiquity is
an interesting publication with thoughts on new developments. His
interpretation of the loess and its nodules in terms of another
dimension of space is absolutely new and seems to me unassailable. He
has reviewed more than 100 years of data and theories about the loess
and has demonstrated his case on the nodules and the other dimension of
space with unique photographic evidence. His four-dimensional model of
comets is new and it accounts for the rings of Saturn and explains how
the ancient mariners were able to determine longitudes as displayed on
the ancient Piri Re'is map. Moreover, his model defines an
earth-shaping mechanism that renders prevailing historical geology
obsolete. And that also is a brand new development. The book sparkles
with originality, convincing evidence and compelled conclusions.
I would like to discuss this interesting publication with its
scintillating thoughts on new developments.
Joseph
