Suppose it's all true? Suppose there really IS a Time Cube? Suppose Alex Chiu's Eternal Life Rings really DO grant immortality?

Won't you feel stupid THEN???

[NeoCaveman]

LOL!! Exactly! Otherwise, you just feed the "seers" cigarette habits!

Hey, I once had a vision when I was out on a smoke break too. (/just kidding).

[Dionysiusdecordealcis]

Benedictines are not "also known as Olivetans." The entire basis for linking "Gloria olivae" to Benedictines is garbage, nonsense, stupidity. Saying that "Olivetans" is another name for "Benedictines" is like saying that another name for horses is Percherons.

Like most other Christians, I, too, long for the return of the Lord and our gathering to him.

It's just that we were warned to avoid dating these things. Each time someone has violated that it has so inflamed the passions of followers that they've ceased being useful, taken up residence on a local hillside, and sat on their haunches awaiting the end.

I don't know if it's an apocryphal story or not, but supposedly, someone once asked Martin Luther what he'd do if found out the Lord would return on the following day. His response was: "Go plant a tree."

Folks can think what they want on these things, but the thoughtful ones realize this stuff is in God's hands, and that it's best to live in hope but to continue our work within each individual day.

[Dominick]

Satan will often mimic Our Lord to lead people astray. Skepticism is prudent here.

AH! Call the Vatican, a miracle! Can we attribute this to JPII? I am in agreement with MurphE and Sinkspur at the same time. (j/k j/k!)

This is exactly right.

The Q-Ray

[te lucis]

That means the next Pope is gonna be named Peter and will be the Antichrist. Which poses a dilemma for us Jews who don't think the Messiah's made it yet.

Another morning reading FR whilst drinking coffee, another call to IT to replace another keyboard.

[murphE]

A miracle or another sign that the end is near? ;-)

[Lazamataz]

Another name for "electronics" is "cell phones".

[te lucis]

"Dan," who predicted that on February 22, 2005 a new pope "will appear, and will call himself Pope Benedict XVI

Oh. Well. That's different. If Dan said it, that lends it an undeniable air of credibility.

Well put.

[Lazamataz]

The Q-Ray's some pretty impressive technology.

But Alex Chui's got you beat.

Here, we see an animal moving it's arm to eat, thusly proving that animals are merely living magnets.

Food is positively charged. The most negatively charged item is the acid of your stomach. The next most negative is the acid in your intestine. The next most negative stuff is your blood. Then finally, food is distributed to your flesh, which is the most positive.

[Dominick]

He is right! I can live forever!
Even better I don't need to pay for the ring!
I just need to eat pie!



I love engineering hucksters.

This is inaccurate in several respects.

First of all, the Benedictines are not as a group called "Olivetans." The Olivetans were a branch of Benedictine reformers, striving for a more austere and ascetical monastic practice. Even at their peak centuries ago, they never more than a small minority within the Benedictine Order, and now they are much dwindled in number.

So that's a very slender connection to Olives.

Also, Benedict XVI is not, and never was, a member of the Benedictine Order. So the slender connection turns out to be no connection at all.

Secondly, Cardinal Ratzinger never endorsed the reported Medjugorge mystical phenomena, and says that supportive statements published hither and yon were "made up out of thin air."

That was interesting.

Hi Mrs. D!
How's the schooling going?
We are getting serious about our "Latin is Not so Tough" lessons here!

[Jaded]

Does that come in gold? It would go with more of my other accessories. (I would settle for tri-colored black hills gold even if it is sooooo 80's.)

[Askel5]

What do you think of all this Annalex?

Is this our version of the evangelical anticipation of all things apocalyptic?

[Jaded]

But is he associated with that "Secret Opus Dei" society?

[Dominick]

"Secret Opus Dei" society?
