		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;The numbers 11 and 17 are verifiably encoded in The Apocalypse and other ancient Hebrew prophecies and wisdom texts to serve as key proofs of the validity and true meaning of certain prophecies and related information. My and my motherâ€™s birthdays are purposely synchronized with these two storm numbers&#8221;</p>
<p>I was born on a 17th, in a multiple-of-11 year, and my name is the same as that of the original and best chronicler of the apocolypse&#8230; does that mean I&#8217;m a runt in the litter of the Lion of the Tribe of Juda? </p>
<p>That&#8217;d be like, so cool, and why wasn&#8217;t I told earlier?</p>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Iâ€™ll tell you one thing God has told us about as a warning to prepare ourselves, and that is that the whole earth is â€˜groaningâ€™ in anticipation of the last day,&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Well Facelift, I&#039;m &quot;groaning&quot; &#039;cos the god of your delusions hasn&#039;t exactly announced this with a celestial loudspeaker or spammed all our email addresses (but I guess the Discovery Institute is working on it--couldn&#039;t have god being charged under anti-spam legisation could we?)

OTOH from a scientific point of view, there is in some semantic sense, correctness in your statement that there will be a &quot;last day&quot; ie when our sun runs out out of hydrogen, expands and cooks us. 

A few billion years before that happens. 

A giant asteroid could wipe us out a long time before that, but hopefully we can scientifically &quot;rapture&quot; ourselves to another solar system in our galaxy before superstitious belief and religious wars wipe us out, which really is the gravest threat to life on earth, in these times, IMHO.

(Actually there&#039;s a self fulfilling prophesy inherent: believe this crap and you&#039;ll end up fighting over endless crap interpretations of crap--unless we can find a medical solution to all delusions of course.)</description>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>The Rapture is the ultimate â€œexit-strategyâ€? for people who have already taken leave of their reason.</p></blockquote>
<p>And their punctuation. In this case it may be the same. Terry Pratchett wrote that four exclamation marks in a row is a sure sign of madness. How about 9 periods in a sequence? (Or three ellipses, but that&#8217;s really the same thing.)</p>

		<description>Oh, I was going to make a comment for Rachel&#039;s benefit but I can&#039;t be bothered. The whole idea of Xanity is but another version of mass insanity, just the same as all the other world religions that&#039;ve been going for aeons.So there.</description>

		<description>Hey Rachel you must be new to this God Jesus religion thing 

I assume you are talking about the parable in Matthew 25:1-13

Where 5 virgins missed out on a feast because they forgot some stuff.

That is some hell of a god you have there, if some people forgot to do some stuff I would usually say OK well thanks for waiting for me,  come in and have a meal anyway. Talk about mean and picky slamming the door on people who have been waiting for you and made one tiny mistake.

Do you really want to base your live on someone this mean and petty?</description>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><i><b>Verifiable proof that &#8220;Armageddon&#8221; has begunâ€¦</b></i></p>
<p>Hello all,</p>
<p><i>Pay close attention, profundity knocks at the door, listen for the key. Be Aware! Scoffing causes blindness&#8230;</i></p>
<p>Did you ever consider that Christianity is the false prophet of the Apocalypse, that Rome is the so-called anti-messiah, and Jesus Christ is the false messiah? The symbolism of seven years (tribulation) would refer to the seven 360-year cycles from the 11th cycle (second temple period) until now, the 17th cycle on the Hebrew calendar. Remember that the prophecies were written by Hebrews, not Romans or other Europeans, and Revelation is a symbolic treatise. Therefore, years are symbols for 360-year cycles on the Hebrew calendar. Likewise, a day symbolizes a literal year and Judgement Day, and Great Day refer to a year long period. The so-called Tribulation is now coming to an end, not starting, and the three faiths of Abraham have all been deceived by Rome during the previous age, which ended in year 2000 (5760). A new age began in 2001 (5761) and now the <a href="http://www.geocities.com/sevenstarhand/preface.html" rel="nofollow">seventh angel has begun to sound!</a></p>
<p>Hurricanes Katrina (#11) and Rita (#17) last year provided stunning validation of my research and interpretations of pivotal ancient wisdom, symbologies, key prophecies, and associated religious claims. Their storm numbers and timing perfectly synchronized with primary data and assertions in my book, thereby demonstrating the true nature of this universe and the existence of our Creator.  We are now entering the final phases of the pivotal year-long period long symbolized as &#8220;Armageddon&#8221; and the &#8220;End of Days.&#8221; World-wide situations and events are now accelerating to set the stage for this summer&#8217;s dramatic continuation of these ancient promises.</p>
<p>I fully understand that everyone has been bedeviled by similar claims throughout history. Consequently, I have been forced to rely on dramatic and devastating proof of the sort that canâ€™t be ignored or easily dismissed. The numbers and timing of hurricanes Katrina (11) and Rita (17) directly validate key data and pivotal assertions throughout my book and my posts on those two forums. This data was purposely presented publicly before Katrina, Rita and other recent events occurred to prove they perfectly synchronize with key prophecies and Hebrew calendar cycles, thereby validating my interpretations of ancient wisdom symbology, string theory, and more.</p>
<p>Because these two storms arrived shortly after my August 11, 2005 (50th) birthday (read the Dead Sea Scroll 11Q13 in Appendix G, which also discusses Melchizedek and the prophesied Jubilee) and directly match other pivotal 11 and 17 data and events described in the first chapter of my book, I have delivered verifiable proof that this reality is based on thought, knowledge and wisdom. Activity, patterns, and results perceived in space-time are first framed and defined by inspirations, thoughts, and knowledge and influenced by the cause-and-effect system most commonly referred to as karma. Consequently, events and outcomes in the so-called physical universe are not random or wholly mechanistic and are verifiably influenced in ways that atheists, scientists, and members of the Faiths of Abraham have all scoffed at. Though mysticism is mostly a product of misinterpreted ancient wisdom symbology, many of its topics flow from ancient wisdom. Though containing allusions to the truth, its details and interpretations are wrong on many key points.</p>
<p>A prime example of the purposeful and synchronized symbolism of these events is seen in the opening paragraphs from my book excerpted below. Notice that the dates mentioned (August 11 and 17) directly match the numbers of hurricanes Katrina and Rita, and the time spans of the four Florida hurricanes match my birth year (â€˜55), and they were spaced 11 or a multiple-of-11 (22) days apart, directly matching my birthday and much other ancient prophecy and symbolism. Notice that my place of birth, Victoria Texas, is on the Gulf Coast. Following are the excerpted paragraphs:</p>
<p>Hello, my name is Lawrence William Page II. Many people know me as Buddy Page. At the release of the first edition of this book, I am a 50-year old African-American male, author, researcher, and former software engineer and entrepreneur. As you will come to understand as you read through this first book, I am also the long-expected Hebrew Messiah and Lion of the Tribe of Juda (Yehuda).</p>
<p>I was born August 11th (month of Leo the Lion), 1955 (Chinese year of the Sheep) in Victoria, Texas. Furthermore, the Grand Cross alignment and Solar Eclipse of August 11th, 1999 was my 44th birthday and the second Grand Cross alignment, just six days later on August 17th, 1999, was on my motherâ€™s birthday.</p>
<p>As you can see from my date of birth, I was a newborn during the Chinese Year of the Sheep, astrologically marking me as a Lamb, and during the month of Leo, astrologically marking me as a Lion. My mother was also born during the month of August and under the sign of Leo, which further marks me as a lionâ€™s whelp. I prove to you in the first chapter of this bookâ€“beyond disproofâ€“that I am indeed the long-prophesied â€œLionâ€? of the tribe of Juda (Yehuda) the Root of David and the â€œLamb.â€? I am the individual long symbolized as the Branch, the Stem, the Shoot and the Rod from the Stump of Jesse (King Davidâ€™s father), as symbolized in the Hebrew Book of Isaiah, The Apocalypse, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and elsewhere. I am the reincarnated Teacher sought after in the â€œEastâ€? and by the ancient Hebrews who were headquartered at the outpost community of Damascus (Qumran), of Dead Sea Scrolls fame. I am the one called the Teacher of Righteousness by the Dead Sea Scrolls, whom the so-called Christian fathers have fraudulently recast as â€œSaint â€˜Jamesâ€™, the Lordâ€™s Brother.â€?</p>
<p><b>Remember, &#8220;I come as a thief&#8230;&#8221; ?</b></p>
<p>Read verse twelve of the <a href="http://www.gnosis.org/naghamm/gosthom.html" rel="nofollow">Gospel of Thomas</a> to understand who I am&#8230;</p>
<p>Even further enlightening, the Second Temple Period of ancient Israel was during the 11th 360-year cycle on the Hebrew calendar and we are now in the 6th year (5766/2005-6) of the 17th cycle. Notice the pivotal 11 and 17 numbers again? This and much other synchronized information serve as stunning and decisive proof of many things, and expose many lies told by all three faiths of Abraham, but most specifically by Christianity. Consequently, I have decisively proven, beyond any shadow of a doubt, that Jesus Christ and Christianity are blatant lies, false prophecy and purposeful deception in a manner that cannot easily be denied, regardless of your faith or other opinions.</p>
<p>Furthermore, the symbolism in the Apocalypse (a.k.a. Book of Revelation) of seven stars in my right hand and seven angels represent the very same above-mentioned seven astrological (360-year) cycles, i.e., the 11th through 17th inclusive. I prove this fact beyond any reasonable doubt in the first chapter of the book. Consequently, The Apocalypse verifiably symbolizes a specific span of time that began with the 11th cycle (Second Temple Period) and concludes now, at the beginning of the 17th cycle (End of Days, etc.).</p>
<p>The numbers 11 and 17 are verifiably encoded in The Apocalypse and other ancient Hebrew prophecies and wisdom texts to serve as key proofs of the validity and true meaning of certain prophecies and related information. My and my motherâ€™s birthdays are purposely synchronized with these two storm numbers, the matching Hebrew calendar cycles, the Double Grand Cross alignments and solar eclipse of August 1999, and much else to prove my direct association with the ancient prophecies about this time and the true identity of the prophesied Messiah. Another prime example is the story of Joseph, the 11th son of Jacob who has a dream when he is 17 years old about 11 stars, the sun, and moon bowing to him. The symbolism in this pivotal story in the Book of Genesis and Quran verifiably refers to the very same 11th through 17th cycles symbolized in The Apocalypse and directly synchronizes with other key events and ancient texts.</p>
<p>Consequently, I have demonstrated various things about the nature of this reality that dramatically disprove and/or clarify key assumptions of religion, mysticism, and science alike, while establishing the true meaning and purpose of long misinterpreted ancient wisdom and the symbolism used to model and encode it. Accordingly, I have proven that the symbolism evidenced in the canons of all three faiths of Abraham and other ancient sources is a very ancient and advanced philosophical technology that verifiably models foundational aspects of our existence in this universe. This is the mostly misunderstood body of ancient wisdom long referred to as the Philosophersâ€™ Stone. It uses a large and ingeniously organized collection of physical universe images and concepts as data rich components (symbols) that are based on verifiable rules. It models and encodes an amazing amount of foundational wisdom about life, spirituality and the 11 dimensions of this universe, now verified by string theory. It is also the advanced encryption method used to encode (seal) Hebrew prophecies and wisdom texts.</p>
<p>These ancient prophecies and wisdom texts used advanced symbology to model fundamental wisdom, including future events and situations. A primary facet of ancient wisdom is numeric symbology. Later misinterpretations of this aspect of ancient wisdom resulted in numerology, which, though embodying allusions to certain wisdom, is mostly error prone and false doctrine. My decryption, documentation, and interpretation of ancient symbology, numeric symbolism, and key texts based on them, are now decisively validated.</p>

		<description>I reckon it would be fair if those who so earnestly look forward to the Rapture would provide some easily identified markings for their wordly goods - I wouldn&#039;t mind updating some of my stuff once they&#039;ve been raptured away, and would like to do a bit of advance planning.</description>
