Post # 5 ~ Well, if it gets them to read the Bible, that would be a good thing. ~ WaPo writers never have and never will read the Bible. That is why they used the word 'apocalypse' out of context; meaning the world will cease to exist when Trump is elected. They thought it was a clever headline... noun | apoc·a·lypse |\ə-ˈpä-kə-ˌlips\ Simple Definition of apocalypse : a great disaster : a sudden and very bad event that causes much fear, loss, or destruction The world will not cease to exist; only "much fear, loss, or destruction" To the Democrats and all leftists!

Wikipedia has a better definition:

An apocalypse (Ancient Greek: ἀποκάλυψις apokálypsis, from ἀπό and καλύπτω meaning "uncovering"), translated literally from Greek, is a disclosure of knowledge, i.e., a lifting of the veil or revelation. In religious contexts it is usually a disclosure of something hidden, “a vision of heavenly secrets that can make sense of earthly realities"

which would be a disaster for many liberals.
