Storming Up A Storm!

It is very storming right now! A big, loud, noisy storm too. A quick glance at the radar shows me that it'll be gone in about an hour though.

It's Thursday. Watched Nostradamus Effect last night while flipping to Ghost Hunters, then a very interesting Destination Truth. Usually Josh finds nothing but sounds. Last night the crew found a tiny decaying corpse (about the size of a chicken but had feet that looked like hooves) that baffled scientists, saw lights in a dead end tunnel, and found a mysterious light outside in the sky that was brighter than anything else around in the Chilean desert. It was some compelling TV watching!

They were searching for UFOs and they definitely found some unexplained stuff. It was a good change from the usual blurry pictures and shaky video footage they take. Ghost Hunters was decent. Nostradamus Effect though was a real eye opener. I had no idea that Sir Issac Newton dealt in eschatology as well as being one of the greatest minds in science ever.

Now of course I am a partial preterist and believe that Revelation mostly dealt with the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD. It was the classical Christian belief as well until the early nineteenth century when dispensationalism became what we commonly know today as the end times. It is the destructive end of the world stuff and sells tons of books, makes lots of money for churches willing to exploit that belief, and makes evangelists some major bank.

Newton had calculated the end of the world as 2060 but Solomon's Temple will have to be rebuilt, which I don't believe it ever will, well not without a massive war with Muslims when the Al Aqsa mosque is torn down. It simply will not happen in the next fifty years and change.

It was an interesting show though on History, one of my favorite channels:)
