Not really. Most of them aren’t actually a big deal, and it’s unlikely most if any of them are related.


United shutting down flights because of a “computer” glitch” is a big deal. The US stock market shutting down due to a “Glitch” is a big deal.

When they happen on the same day, it’s an amazing coincidence. When the latter happens the day the Chinese market shut down because it was in free fall and the US market was headed that way when the “glitch” happened, it increased, by an order of magnitude, the “bigness” of the deal.

Regarding the end of the world, I’m kinda with you. My take is that we are either entering the end times, Ezekiel 39, Matthew 24 and Revelation, or we are on the cusp of September 1st, 1939.

Either is bad.

Everybody knows the fiat money ponzy scheme can’t go on forever, just as they know the sun will eventually explode. They just don’t think about it and hope they are not around when it happens.

And Jews in Germany hoped that nasty Nazi thing would just blow over. It did, eventually...

My tag line is more about timing than Obama specifically. And I believe it more now than ever.

It’s not really a big deal. 99% of the people are completely unaffected by temporary shutdowns of one airline or one stock market.

And it’s not really an amazing coincidence. Computers have problems. Now maybe if they had the SAME problem that would be interesting. Or not. Maybe they both installed the same OS update last night and it failed. If most of the major airlines shut down on the same that THAT would be at least an interesting coincidence. But even then you don’t get to amazing until most of ALL the airlines shut down at the same time.

Since the ‘87 crash most markets have shutdown switch for a dump. Not really an interesting coincidence there either. Much like the airlines, if a BUNCH of markets glitched at the same time that would be an interesting coincidence. One shutting down largely on purpose and one glitching, not interesting.

My take is there are no end times, anybody that thinks we are is just plain wrong. Because it’s been proven over and over and over. Every generation for the entire recorded history of mankind has had people that thought they were in the end times. They were all wrong. And they still are.

Sure it can. ALL money is fiat money, and it’s been going on for the entire recorded history of mankind. Sometimes we change the scheme up, but we need some sort of barter representative, so we’ll always have money, and it will always be fiat because actually valuable things make terrible money (in truth and reality gold was completely worthless until the computer age when it suddenly became useful, can’t build with it, can’t eat it, gold actually is fiat money, though people who use the term will never admit it).

Holocaust wasn’t an end times. It was a bad time, at least in most of Europe. But not even close to an end time. While eventually there must be an end time, because if nothing else the sun will turn off, this ain’t eventually.
