He's 99% correct on every issue. Bravo.

The only -- ONLY -- thing he's wrong about is the future. The future is going to be great, because the current global system -- the "Empire" -- cannot go on for much longer. Sooner or later the whole Modernist house of cards is going to collapse, and the world as we know it will end. A Dark Age will likely follow -- but out of the darkness a Christian leader will arise, a warrior-king with the charisma, the will, and the military prowess to bring order out of chaos. This new Charlemagne will re-light the fire of civilization, renew Christendom, and unite the human race beneath Crown and Cross.

It's likely that this Christian king will speak some form of English. It's less likely, however, that he will be primarily of European or American descent, because the Empire began here. Charlemagne was not a Roman; he was a Frank. It is from the Third World -- the "Franks" of our modern Empire -- that the new civilization will emerge.

Yes, after a few hundred years of turmoil, a great leader will arise to set things right. Afterwards, things will procede as they usually do until we reach a point much like today in terms of religion and morality, though not of science and technology.

Then after centuries of darkness, a great leader will come forth and establish order. Afterwards the world will evolve as expected to a condition not unlike the present in terms of irreligion and immorality, if not science and technology.

But fear not, a great leader shall arise who ...

So it goes. Great leaders and renaissances don't last. Perhaps it's better to make do with what we have, rather than to wish for great changes. There's something more than a little chilling about the "great leaders" previous generations expected to save them.

And what -- on earth or in heaven -- makes you so sure that those leaders who arise will be Christian or any more Christian than today's leaders? Or are you just choosing the one or so who might be Christian and ignoring all the other world saviors who'll present themselves?

You mean someone like this?

"Then I stood on the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast rising up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his horns ten crowns, and on his heads a blasphemous name. Now the beast which I saw was like a leopard, his feet were like the feet of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority. And I saw one of his heads as if it had been mortally wounded, and his deadly wound was healed. And all the world marveled and followed the beast. So they worshiped the dragon who gave authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?”" - Revelation 13:1-4 NKJV

Ping!
