NASA and the missing day

[Mudhammam]

I have heard about this for many years and in my teens took it as fact, however growing in maturity and reading books for myself found the NASA thing not to be true. There are historical records from several places in the ancient world that do record a extra long day at the same time that Joshua lived.
Some of these peoples would have not known each other, some wouldn't have know some of these people existed. Admittedly I've not done a complete study of this, but here is some thing to consider.

There is apologetic value in ancient legends from various parts of the globe, however, including the following: “It is reported by historians that records of the Chinese during the reign of Emperor Yeo, who lived at the same time as Joshua, report ‘a long day.’ Also, Heroditus, a Greek historian, wrote that an account of ‘a long day’ appears in records of Egyptian priests. Others cite records of Mexicans of the sun standing still for an entire day in a year denoted as ‘Seven Rabits,’ which is the same year in which Joshua defeated the Philistines and conquered Palestine.” (Bible-Science Newsletter, Daily Reading Magazine, Supplement, Vol. VIII, No. 5, May 1978, Caldwell, Idaho.)

Additionally, the historical lore of the Aztecs, Peruvians, and Babylonians speak of a “day of twice natural length.” See http://www.zetatalk.com/theword/tword16a.htm ; see also Immanuel Velikovsky’s “Worlds in Collision.” If Joshua’s long day (not “missing” day) occurred—and of course I believe that it did—then we would expect its effects to show up in the historical records of other nations, and that is exactly what we find.

Most ancient cultures also have a sky-god / serpent monster battle in their mythology. You would see this as evidence that later writings such as the Bible adopted stories from their pagan predecessors who explained cosmogony and theogony in poetry and myth before the development of philosophy and science, not that there was actually a sky-god battling a snake-monster....um, right?
