The Great Peacemaker, whose name means "Two River Currents Flowing Together" and is sometimes referred to as Deganawida, was an Iroquois Prophet who convinced five warring Indian tribes to join in peace.
He prophesied that a "white serpent" would come to his people's lands and make friends with them, only to deceive them later.
A "red serpent" would later make war against the "white serpent."
After a season, a "black serpent" would come and defeat both the "white" and "red serpents".
According to the prophecy, when the people gathered under the elm tree become humble, all three "serpents" would be blinded by a light many times brighter than the sun. Deganawidah said that he would be that light.
Bomb 20 said the same thing. /obscure
Thanx spellin knot-see,
After a season, a "black serpent" would come and defeat both the "white" and "red serpents".
He was referring to the 1919 World Series where the Cincinnati Reds (the "red serpent") faced the Chicago White Sox (the "white serpent.") The "black serpent" refers to the infamous Black Sox scandal that erupted when it was learned that the series was fixed.
You go first :)

That wasn’t just some random young black man—that was Sam Wilson, the Falcon.
And in the original comics, the Falcon often was Capt America when Steve was doing other things/dead/dying/missing (he came back a lot—even from the dead... Comics, amirite?)
Dark, very dark, you’re a star!

I had absolutely no idea the Iroquois used the Julian calendar.
I won’t say I believe it, but God can send a prophecy to anyone he darn pleases; they don’t even have to be Christian or even believers in any higher power.
is that boomer as in SSBN?

July 16th, 1945: the birth of the Atomic Age. All three: "Trinity".
Production of the fissile isotopes uranium-235 and plutonium-239 were enormous undertakings given the technology of the 1940s, and accounted for 80% of the total costs of the project.

Ralph Carlisle Smith, watching from Compania Hill, wrote:
I was staring straight ahead with my open left eye covered by a welder's glass and my right eye remaining open and uncovered. Suddenly, my right eye was blinded by a light which appeared instantaneously all about without any build up of intensity. My left eye could see the ball of fire start up like a tremendous bubble or nob-like mushroom. I dropped the glass from my left eye almost immediately and watched the light climb upward. The light intensity fell rapidly, hence did not blind my left eye but it was still amazingly bright.
Num 24
16. The speech of one who heard the words of God, and knew the knowledge of the most High, who saw the vision of the Almighty falling down, but having his eyes open [uglui* einayim =235]:
17. I shall see him, but not now; I shall behold him, but not near; there shall come a star out of Jacob, and a scepter shall rise out of Israel, and shall strike the corners of Moab, and destroy all the sons of Seth:
* cf. "gilui", discovery, revelation. IOW having open eyes. Manifest... Destiny.
American elm (Ulmus americana) is a large tree widely known for its vase-like shape and rounded, multi-branched crown atop a thick, powerful trunk. It usually grows from 60 to 80 feet tall with a crown two-thirds as great. Before the onset of Dutch elm disease, American elm was one of the most common street and shade trees across much of the United States.

when the people gathered under the elm tree become humble
Check the corner of Washington Street at Boylston-Essex Streets for the famous elm tree:
During an 1825 tour of Boston, the Marquis de Lafayette declared, "The world should never forget the spot where once stood Liberty Tree, so famous in your annals."
Iroquois Prophesy from 1451
Sons of Liberty:
1451 = Reuben [259] + Simeon [466] + Ephraim [331] + Manasseh [395]:
Bookends. These are the first two sons of Jacob paired with the last two who came from Joseph. Compare how these "Two River Currents" flow together:
Genesis 48:5 And now thy two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, which were born unto thee in the land of Egypt before I came unto thee into Egypt, are mine; as Reuben and Simeon, they shall be mine.
(The name Manasseh is spelled with the same letters as neshama, soul.)
And so forth.
THIS is the House that Jack built, but nobody knows Jack!
"The man all tattered and torn", and the "Maiden all forlorn": the Messiah, and the Shekhina in exile.It is a cumulative tale that does not tell the story of Jack's house, or even of Jack who built the house, but instead shows how the house is indirectly linked to other things and people, and through this method tells the story of "The man all tattered and torn", and the "Maiden all forlorn", as well as other smaller events, showing how these are interlinked.
