from clyde lewis: It has been happening for millions of years maybe more. Each time the earth slows down and speeds up, days go by faster and then slower. Each time we slow down we begin to notice those things that were once a blur become clear again. The Light bearer returns and the songs are sung. In the end was silence; in the new beginning was the word. Let there be light and there was light. They call it an Apocalypse. What we are seeing now is just business as usual.
from clyde lewis: Once in lifetime not too far away, I dabbled in evangelical Christianity. It was something I did because my original religious group abandoned me because I was a sinner and at the time played the stupid game of sinner, to saint much to my discouragement. Attending Pentecostal services was more entertaining than spiritual and I really didn’t question the sincerity of those attending. They believed in the power of God and the salvation of Christ... I am particularly concerned with this whole affair with Delaware Senate nominee Christine O’Donnell. Once again we have a born again Christian who pulls a Mike Warnke by saying to Bill Maher on his TV show in 1999, that she once dabbled in witchcraft. She made mention of this around the time “The Blair Witch Project” was in theaters.

you don't have to be a religious person to know that - when you see a story about the lucifer telescope next to the vatican's observatory - things are getting biblical. and you don't have to be a christian to be concerned about 'clergy response teams' & microchip implants. you just have to know that these stories, signs & symbols are being used for a reason. are we being prepped for some kind of space event, a holy happening or even a fake rapture? is this the end of days or only the beginning?
from popsci: A new instrument with an evil-sounding name is helping scientists see how stars are born. Lucifer, which stands for (deep breath) "Large Binocular Telescope Near-infrared Utility with Camera and Integral Field Unit for Extragalactic Research," is a chilled instrument attached to a telescope in Arizona. And yes, it's named for the Devil, whose name itself means "morning star." But it wasn't meant to evoke him, according to a spokesman for the University of Arizona, where it is housed.
from news junkie post: Amid the current scandal involving Pope Benedict XVI, speculation has increased that perhaps Christs very own vicar on earth is none other than the great deceiver. The Antichrist, the harbinger of the end-times, the deceiver who hides behind a facade of goodness. Joseph Ratzinger is a past member of the Hitler Youth and current pederast enabler, cloaked in his holy vestments, holding the faith of billions in the palm of his hands. Many seem to think that the only way to see him clearly is through the nebulous lens of biblical prophecy.
from clyde lewis: The end times have arrived. That is of course if you believe what some people are saying in Chile. The 8.8 earthquake didn’t convince them of this. It is what happened prior to the quake that has many Chileans fearful for what might have opened up before the quake hit. Earthquakes are of course common place in the region and so when the quake began to shake the area of Concepcion, many were thinking that it was just another small shock. The quake lasted longer and the shaking got worse. As the ground opened up and swallowed villages the people saw something else open up in the sky, a ring of fire and brilliant lights.
from allgov: Requiring individuals to have medical implants placed under their skin isn’t just a potential violation of someone’s civil rights - it’s downright satanic. Republican Mark Cole, a member of Virginia’s House of Delegates, is sponsoring legislation that would prevent employers or insurance companies from forcing people to get implants because he thinks the microchips could amount to the Antichrist’s “mark of the beast” mentioned in the Bible. “My understanding - I’m not a theologian - but there’s a prophecy in the Bible that says you’ll have to receive a mark, or you can neither buy nor sell things in end times,” Cole told The Washington Post. “Some people think these computer chips might be that mark.” Some of Cole’s colleagues in the Virginia legislature have been left shaking their heads over the idea. Democrat Robert Brink compared the concern to the likelihood of asteroids striking the earth or giant alligators roaming underground sewers. He also said that California’s legislature passed a similar ban, and that alone was reason enough for Virginia to avoid doing the same thing. “If Virginia is starting to use California as our legislative role model, it’s a sign that our legislative apocalypse has arrived,” Brink told the Free Lance-Star. Nevertheless, Cole’s bill was approved by the House of Delegates last week.

from clyde lewis: Rolling Stone Magazine considered Ground Zero radio to be one of its favorite conspiracy theory resources. The controversial theory of the identity of the Anti-Christ presented by Ground Zero Lounge Host Clyde Lewis was reported in the September 8, 2005 issue of Rolling Stone as the conspiracy theory “you don’t have to be a nut to believe.”
from dpa: A small passenger plane crashed Sunday afternoon in the western state of Montana, killing an estimated 17 people including a number of children, federal officials confirmed. Les Dorr, the spokesman for the Federal Aviation Administration, could not confirm the exact number of dead. The single-engine propeller plane had departed from California, and was headed to Bozeman, Montana, the FAA said. But it changed its destination at the last minute and tried to land in Butte, where it crashed near the Holy Cross cemetery, about 170 metres short of the landing strip about 3 pm (2100 GMT), according to local media reports. It was not clear why the pilot changed his destination... The aircraft was a small Pilatus POC-12 plane type, normally only licensed to carry ten passengers, Dorr said. The plane is registered to Eagle Cap Leasing in Enterprise, Oregon, Dorr added. It wasn't immediately possible to contact the company by telephone.

from ap: Experts hired by attorneys for victims of the Interstate 35W bridge collapse say the National Transportation Safety Board got the cause of the disaster wrong, their lead attorney said Wednesday. Attorney Chris Messerly said experts from the engineering firm Thornton Tomasetti Inc. told survivors and families of victims Tuesday night the "initiating event" wasn't the fracture of a key gusset plate in the bridge, but the failure of a horizontal beam called a chord. Messerly leads a group of attorneys representing 117 families of victims and survivors for free. The engineers' conclusions give them legal grounds for suing two contractors that worked on the bridge before it collapsed Aug. 1. 2007, killing 13 people and injuring 145. The experts concluded the "L9-L11 west" chord buckled because of heat stress on the bridge that day, the weight of construction materials on it, and frozen roller bearings that prevented the bridge from expanding as it should have to handle the heat. The engineers said the chord failure then caused the "U10 west" gusset to fail, Messerly said.
from daily mail: The Pope has ordered his bishops to set up exorcism squads to tackle the rise of Satanism. Vatican chiefs are concerned at what they see as an increased interest in the occult. They have introduced courses for priests to combat what they call the most extreme form of "Godlessness." Each bishop is to be told to have in his diocese a number of priests trained to fight demonic possession.
from upi: The Vatican is denying reports it plans to install more exorcists around the world so possessed people can get help quickly.
