(Podcasts, 5 chapters, short story, at the link.) Jules Verne's "Master Zacharias" is a prideful watchmaker, proponent of scientism, whose clocks stop working all at the same time. He agrees to let the devil wed his daughter.
The Gates foundation has been accused of putting sterilizing agents into polio vaccines in Africa. He is like J.D. Rockefeller II, whose attempts to dumb-down America with whole-word reading, ruined 4 of his own 5 sons, who came out of John Dewey's Lincoln School with dyslexia. He is like Freud's nephew, P.R. pioneer Edward Bernays, who boasted of his ability to engineer the opinions of billions of people, who got millions of women to smoke, but his own wife died of smoking related illnesses.
These Faustian characters will hurt hundreds of millions of people, but they end up destroying themselves.
Well, God is real, as far as I can tell from his creation, and if I am anywhere near correct in understanding God's nature, Gates will either have justice meted out on him for how he lived his life, or God will show him mercy, the latter dependent on accepting God's grace by acknowledgement that Jesus died for his sins.
I am still waiting for George Soros to receive his Divine Justice.
Well, millions of Jews’ experiences showed the fallacy of sitting around and waiting for God to give justice.
God is real all right, and I hope to be standing at the Pearly Gates with a bunch of FReepers when St. Peter tells Bill Gates to get lost.
I want to see a big Sodom and Gomora show rain down on that evil devil.
If George Soros or Bill Gates do not repent, their encounter with the Almighty will be extremely unpleasant, to say the least.
I’m trying to imagine the amount “Repentance” that would be required from Soros to satisfy the “Almighty”.
Meanwhile...
Jules Verne's faustian watchmaker "Master Zacharias" (If God is real, Bill Gates will get his just desserts)
Regards,
The longer the wait, the greater and more terrible the punishment. Ole Georgey boy will get his just reward either in this life or the next. As will we all.
