reflections resurrection inside the artist book
reflections resurrection inside the artist book is also in zine format from AIM Publishing. It uses the Emily Dickinson poem
Water, is taught by thirst.

Peace-by its battles told-
Love, by Memorial Mold-

David Bell's introduction says
The Rev John Wesley, the 18th century founder of the Methodist Church, wrote a lot about three basic Christian ideas. These were creation, providence and resurrection.Yet, Wesley saw that many sincere Christians had difficulty understanding the fundamental concept of resurrection. And many more non-Christians rejected it as less than credible, absurd. Today, Christianity has lost its influence: with ...

    See how plasma cosmology and electric universe are validating Velikovsky's ideas as decades ahead of his time, especially with the James Webb Telescope falsifying so many assumptions of the Lambda CDM Standard Model. Velikovsky's should be considered one of the founding fathers of plasma cosmology along with Hannes Alfven and Christian Birkeland.

    Stuart Manins explains further: Stuart Manins writes: istorically, music has been seen as part of a cultural complex of ingredients alongside language, myth, ceremony, religion, rhythm, dance, melody, harmony, timbre, dynamics - all combined in a recognisable form with a particular texture and in a recognisable style. This is the case with Maori music where the term ‘waiata’ covers as diverse musical examples as haka, chant, instrumental piece, and song. Here music is functional - e.g. it challenges a stranger, welcomes a friend, threatens an enemy, and sooths a crying child. Similarly, today’s programme music, pop music and dance music are linked to somethings outside their own sound, hence, Referential Music. On the other hand, other cultures, particularly in Western Europe, from the 1400s on, increasingly separated out some of their music to include only those elements that were products of organised sound, viz rhythm, melody, harmony, timbre, dynamics and combined them in a way which gave them pleasing form, texture, and style. Thus a Bach Prelude and Fugue, a Mozart symphony, a Haydn String Quartet, and a Beethoven Piano Concerto were listened to and responded to for their own musical sake and not for any referenced idea. In contrast to Programme Music it is not about anything other than its own sounds. It is non-representational Art Music or Absolute Music. Both kinds of music can have an emotional, intellectual and physical effect on people. So, is there such a thing as Christian Music? My mother, bless her, thought that Christian music had to have a religious text. However, I once conducted an opera where the same tune was used for the following words - Listen to this: “Fill every glass for wine inspires us, And fires us with courage love and joy. Women and wine should men employ, Is there on earth ought else desirous?” (The Beggar’s Opera - John Gay) And for a Christmas programme for the newly appointed Elizabeth II, where I sang with others, “Whence is that goodly fragrance flowing, Stealing our senses all away? Never the like did come a blowing, Shepherds in flow’ry fields of May.” (18th c French Carol) Is the music in these examples Christian, secular or neutral? If possible, discuss with someone else. Where do you agree? Where do you disagree? Another approach to considering Music and Christianity could be through looking at a few historically important musical examples taken from church records. 1 Music from the early Roman Church. Early Christian chant. e.g. Benedictus domino (Sing example) Music has been associated with worship for as long as we have written records. The Jews mentioned harps, trumpets and cymbals and we particularly associate music with the Psalms of King David. Pope Gregory is remembered through Gregorian chant which has one sophisticated melodic line. In Gregory’s time all music sung in church worship was monodic. Any harmony was accidental and although the melody sung together by men and boys, or monks and nuns, was an octave apart, it was not perceived as different. 2 The emergence of harmony and later, polyphony The first shift from monody was the addition of a fifth (the first harmonic originally described by Pythagoras). a. Sing ‘Amen’ together in two equal groups, a fifth (5 notes) apart. Higher voices G AG F G____ Lower voices C D C Bb C____ (Rhythm follows word syllables) When the second harmonic was added, (i.e. the third E, in CEG), the triad sounded. b. Listen to notes C E G (C cord) played together on piano. Whereas the octave and fifth were considered perfect intervals, the thirds were less straightforward. There are major thirds, minor thirds and even neutral thirds used by Arabs. Thus, thirds were often left out of final chords of ‘church’ music because some were viewed by the authorities as sensual and sinful. Further ‘referential’ church influence was shown by preferring 3/4 to 4/4 Time Signatures to acknowledge the Trinity. This gives a simultaneous vertical mix of sounds - harmony When melodies (from the development of chant singing) were sung together but starting at different times, harmony was also produced but not from chords but horizontally from the tunes - polyphony Think of a round such as Tallis’ canon: “Glory to Thee my God this night”. With the development of writing rhythmic notation (beat had replaced free plainchant) in the 1400s, church and secular music gradually established 2,3, and 4 (and more) part writing for choral and instrumental composition. 3 With the influence of the Renaissance and later Rationalism, music became freer from non-music influences and we have the present situation illustrated by the Mayfair Christian Fellowship Hymnbook. The main contributing sources of its music have been the Roman Catholic Church, The Reformation Protestants; Anglican, Methodists, Presbyterian, Baptist, Pentecostal, and other recent New Zealand Christians. Despite the existence of the different ways of interpreting both Music and Christianity, the Christian story still inspires musicians to produce some of their best compositions. Undoubtedly, the legacy of the past would be decidedly poorer if these two great influences had not been continually merging. I consider that some of my deepest spiritual feelings have come from the combination of ‘voice and verse.’ We are so different from other religions (Buddhism, Islam) who do not use music in worship. Note: Richard Gillard, started writing songs as a NSTC music student. With another student, John Lethaby, we wrote a College music drama ‘Earth Blue’ in 1973. It has since been forgotten, but his Servant Song (1977) remains popular, a sure indicator of high quality. When I listen to the best of Bach, Handel, Mozart, Brahms, Elgar, Wesley, Murray, Gibson, and Gillard, I am already in heaven!

      Hey, that's very interesting. I think in some regards it's absolutely correct and I agree. Yet I don't think it's always possible to separate out the way a person approaches science from their religious outlook. Abraham Pais wrote a wonderful book, Subtle is the Lord, The Science and the Life of Albert Einstein, back in 1982. It kind of opened my eyes to what Einstein called the moral obligations of a scientist. Later on I rediscovered the significance of Godel's incompleteness theorems and how, as Einstein's friend in that late Princeton period, the mathematician brought his theological awareness to all that they discussed. Most of the theory is far beyond me, but the religious outlook I suspect determines what they wanted to achieve in their science?

    • @practicaltheology
      @practicaltheology Год назад

      I'm not so sure it was all pseudoscience. I might be wrong! Science, however, is a very broad term across many different branches of knowledge and I doubt very much that Velikovsky's work in psychiatry can be easily dismissed as pseudoscience. Richard Feynman once said, "One of the ways of stopping science would be only to do experiments in the region where you know the law. " That was cited by John Gribbin in his marvellous romp through quantum physics and cosmology, In Search Of Schrodinger's Cat. Gribbin went on to note that physics is about probing the unknown. Now though I barely understand any physics I think I see a glimmer in cosmological speculations something akin to the medieval monks doing theology, something akin to Freud, Jung, Adler, Velikovsky, searching for meaning and truths that don't correspond to orthodoxy. Sometime truths are like Mount Horeb glowing in the imagination of a Moses.

    Look at the ancient legend of the Sun an moon from Morelia Mexico. It goes something like “the sun an moon were in love circled the planet always together. One day The beautiful planet Venus with her long blue tail, came between the sun an moon. The moon was so sad she cried tears of silver. The natives collected the moons tears and made jewelry from the moons tears. The moon an sun we’re forever separated, but Venus went on her way. And now the sun an moon chase each other through the sky.” This is my interpretation I haven’t read the legend in a long time. But it’s too coincidental the planet Venus lost its orbit and came so close to earth that indigenous people passed the story down for centuries. No to mention the liquid silver tears that showered the earth because of it.

    Worlds in collision should belong to the world heritage. It may be the most important source of ancient knowledge. All translated and registered by Velikovsky in a perfect way. But to really understand what is going on, we must skip all dates that are used by geologists and historians so far. Human history is much, much older. The collisions that Velikovsky talks about are not collisions but a near fly past from a very fast moving celestial body, a planet. And that occurred much more often and according to a fixed time schedule in a cycle of seven. The many horizontal strata on our planet are rock solid proof of a recurring disaster. Velikovsky is right about a celestial body but the planet Venus has nothing to do with it. The cause of the 'collisions' is the ninth planet in our solar system that orbits our sun in an eccentric orbit. Then it is close to the sun and its planets for a very short time and it disappears into the universe for several thousand years. The havoc on our planet, known as a huge flood, depends of the distance between the perihelion of planet 9 and the Earth. Another effect is that the earth is put upside down so the poles are shifted. Planet 9 is known worldwide by hundreds of different names. One of them is Nibiru.

    Evolution process is extremely slow - sum of tiny DNA changes over 100s of thousands of generations. Asking the question "Who was the first human?" is as absurd as asking "How old were you when you were growing up?", or "Who was the first person to fully speak French?". A theory explains a process based on evidence at hand. Theories can be modified, updated, or rejected based on new evidence. Fossil & DNA evidence prove evolution to be a fact & the evolution theory explains how it works.

    • @practicaltheology
      @practicaltheology 2 года назад

      I like this comment! But one point raised is intriguing. I don't think it is absurd to ask "How old were you when you were growing up?". Maybe just the way I think, but that seems to me to get to the heart of many similar questions about how we experience time. Albert Einstein and Kurt Godel particularly emphasized the difficulties of understanding time to the extent Einstein named it as a "stubbornly persistent illusion". Rabbit A J Heschel puts it this way. "One must be overawed by the marvel of time to be ready to perceive the presence of eternity in a single moment." We are used to thinking of biological evolution as a complex set of processes acting in and across very long passages of time which, I suspect, helps perpetuate that stubborn illusion. "Who was the first human?" might be a necessary byproduct of that illusion, just as who were the first group to display the characteristics of the human, to display humanity. Adam becomes the representative man. In the same way but escaping the dilemma of time, the individual asks of their own development when did I put away childish behaviour, and later on when did I develop the capacity for disinterested love, 'agape' and speaking now as a much older man when did I rediscover radical awe, the sense of wonderment I had once as very young child?

      The contrast between the Poulenc oboe (Kate Waller) , the Respihi piano Michael Bell) , and folk melody by Rebecca Livingston on harp makes a rich soundscape to accompany John McWade's superb readings.

    Velikovsky was absolutely correct. He was shunned by the academics because he proved that The Bible is literally, word by word accurate. Even the Rabbis didn't believe. God can and will do whatever is necessary to help His people, even if it requires propelling comets close to earth. Read his Worlds in Collision. Actually read it. Thank you.

    Whether Velikovsky is right or wrong is a moot point...what to me is hilarious is that Science/Nasa has tried to prove him wrong all these years...and with rather dismal results. First is the very hot temperature on Venus, second is the "young" terrain, third is the comet like tail, fourth is the water on our moon, fifth are the radio signals from Jupiter. Its been over 70 years and the very "wacky" ideas put forth by Velikovsky still illicit "wacky" explanations from academia who belittled him mercilessly for these "unscientific" ideas...which in the end proved TRUE. The latest attempt to quiet Velikovsky is the "finding" of trace granite markers in the Venusian atmosphere by NASA, of course even in NASA this "finding" is hotly disputed today. I mean the publishing of this granite paper is trying to prove that Venus is "old", versus Velikovsky's "new". When you think about it Velikovsky must be wrong...I wonder how long to really prove it though.

    It doesn't matter if it's true or symbolic the whole point that God is trying to get across has to be understood by letting go of semantics and having eyes to see and ears to hear the intended message but then again the Good Book also "Be careful of casting pearls before swine!"

    Dude how do know the thoughts of people 2-7 thousand years ago? Paul quoted scripture in the Old Testament to show how the "Types" reflected Jesus! that's what Parables, allegories and Types are for; to present Dualism-- a common Hebrew way of writing & speaking. It's a basic and poignant learning method of making an idea stick by association:Causing one to remember something by presenting first an idea to reflect the intended item at hand! Your dots don't consecutively follow or lead anywhere only simply because you have left them purposely out just to insert half- truths without taking the relatively short time to unbiasedly learn in the traditional way that some of us here did! Bro it's so blatantly obvious that even an ignorant child could spot your incompetence!... Man you cannot impart your childhood hang-ups on learned responsible folk as us who read your half-baked pie- in- the-sky rants (BTW you've got a beautiful accent!) 😏🧐 If you really want your Sheeple to be herded into your "Pasture" then skip Genesis which you've already evidentially figured out and go to something modern,up-to-date and contemporary like say ummm the book of Revelation, it's right up Yo alley and full of your precious Symbolism, we desperately need your most valued, wise and trustworthy scholarly input please! 😕

      @@justinamusyoka4986 That's again a very genuine and important question. I think the creations stories are quite a lot different from say, Psalms, wisdom literature prophets, gospels, Pauline epistles. They are all written in different ages and stages, so it's very hard understand all of it. I just try to concentrate on a few areas. I don't think it matters that our ideas and interpretations change over time, as long as we continue to engage with what we can in the bible and draw inspiration from it.

    how did Velikovsky explain that Venus as a moon of Jupiter past outside of Mars and Saturn. Wouldn't this have changed the original orbit of Venus as a moon. Could Venus have been the Nibiru of old (with an elongated obliquity), which then settled into its current movement.

      Read Worlds in Collision. Venus was not an original planet. God turned it into a comet to help Moses at The Red Sea. That event was not localized but worldwide. That event happened twice before Venus became a planet. You have to read the book for the detailed account and miriad proofs to back it up. God is real and He is in charge

    Veliskovsky thought that the ancient historical records in all cultures, not just the Bible, were a sort of subconscious memory or real events that have perhaps no analogue today. Why was Mars worshipped since today very few people can actually locate it in the sky. Please watch The Electric Universe series. These new men show that the sacrosanct Einstein And Newton were wrong, that The speed of light, for instance, is not a constant. The EU is to Newtonian physics what Newton was to Euclidian geocentric astronomy. And of course when someone says there is no such thing as gravity he must be crazy. But what is gravity? What if someone had a better way to show how things hang together? I think.
