Mark August 14, 2005 on your calendar as potentially momentous. It’s one day before Ariel Sharon’s planned removal of 8,000 settlers from the Gaza strip, a dramatic event no matter the outcome.

Interesting article. Bump.
Incredibly the Ark of the Covenant has a pretender.
With the blessings of the United Nations, a bizarre ark knock-off, carried through Vermont farm fields and sailed by sloop to UN Manhattan headquarters, has been making the rounds as a show-and-tell exercise at public schools. Called the Ark of Hope, the replica carries, among other things, the Earth Charter, a replacement for the Ten Commandments as advocated by former Soviet Union President Mikhail Gorbachev and Kofi Annan right hand man, Maurice Strong.
The Earth Charter is "an international peoples’ treaty for building a just, sustainable and peaceful global society in the 21st century". (Philologos Bible Prophecy Research).
Is Geraldo going to be there?

Behold the Ark of Hope, and weep.
I had not heard of the fake ark that was toured around with its "replacement" of the Ten Commandments, but it's typical of Satan to try and counterfeit things of God.
Discovering the Ark of the Covenant would be perhaps the most exciting archaeological discovery in history. I'm skeptical that it ever actually existed, but would be thrilled to be proven wrong on that account.
Isn't the Ark supposedly in some fleaspeck church in the Sudan or some such? I remember seeing a tv special on the Ark that traced it through its journey, and eventually tracked it to this little sub-saharan church on the Nile. Supposedly it was brough there by Jews fleeing enslavement by Babylon or some such. They couldn't prove the ark was there because the priest said no one was allowed to get too close to it (natch), but they had reasonably good supporting evidence to suggest it might really be there.
WOW!
I'm on pins and needles awaiting this momentous occassion!
How often are we going to see the World's three biggest LOSERS (A Failed Dictator who lost his country, An incompetant BOOB named after Coffee (who hasn't one successful accomplishment on his record) and a corrupt Bureaucrat (who is up to his eyebrows in the Food For Oil scandal)!
Sounds like a Freak Show to me.
Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
Some people just don't listen.
The date August 14, 2005, is not random. That is the Jewish fast day in remembrance of the destruction of the two Temples in Jerusalem.
Vendyl believes he received a prophecy that he would find the Ark by then, or some such story.

Gaia would be proud...
Yep, can I BARF now?!
Over here.
I think this our friend's schtick.
Mikhail Gorbachev and Maurice Strong came up with a replacement for the Ten Commandments? Isn't that a bit pretentious?
And will they display it in a courthouse?
