My metaphor depends on no knew Pentecost to be appropriate.
It is simply a paraphrase of your argument, with names and places changed, that because unprecedented Event A occurred in close temporal proximity to unprecedented Event B they must therefore be causally related.
I chose that particular metaphor because of its potent Christian symbolism. I could just as easily have chosen the juxtapostion of the election of George Bush and the occurence of 9/11..

Yes, the last supper triggered Judas' betrayal of Jesus and the connection is explicit in the texts, just as VII triggered the collapse of the Catholic Church. Also I have bad news for you, you may be right again in the Bush 9/11 connection.
Think: if Clinton's minion, Gore, had been elected would there have been a 9/11?
Maybe not, because the unholy covenant between the DemAdmin and Islamo-fascism (clearly demonstrated by the very soft response to the Beyrut style attack in 1993; by the use of federal funds to aid palestine, by the absolute inaction towards terrorism in general, etc.) would have stayed in place and the progressive 'peaceful' islamization of the western world would have continued UNCHECKED.
