He, like all so-called prophets, is just making it up as he goes along. And that kind of creative project doesn't leave much time for fact-checking.Casey Wollberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17431287042461404406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5846567313402731847.post-53945840789828753572010-07-10T08:56:04.800-07:002010-07-10T08:56:04.800-07:00I think I've mentioned here before another asp...I think I've mentioned here before another aspect of this, which hurts the Flurry argument -- the geographic one.<br /><br />The old WCG determined "north and south" based on the location of Jerusalem. Iran is EAST of there, not south.Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11058030312904622191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5846567313402731847.post-53628357359778557012010-07-10T04:04:28.063-07:002010-07-10T04:04:28.063-07:00It is a great mystery how this type of logic would...It is a great mystery how this type of logic would work anyway.<br /><br />We are dealing with a nation that uses muslim logic, and so all others - whether christians or jews - can't really "know" what some of the signals from Iran are all about.<br />What may seem as confusion may very well end up in complete unity if the US handles events badly. I'm here especially thinking of the atomic energy situation. If the US handles the crisis badly the reaction could be rather strong, and disunified arab nations could suddenly come together if they feel their "honor" is being disregarded.<br /><br />A related idea is how people might come together with either Syria or Egypt. Such forces already have an anti-Israel history, and might attract some with a muslim mindset.<br /><br />But it is all speculation, and certainly a time-consuming hobby among many ex-Armstrongism members...<br /><br />Have a nice weekend. :-)Henrik V Blunckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17977028543812049468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5846567313402731847.post-79217460520344531242010-07-08T08:13:21.361-07:002010-07-08T08:13:21.361-07:00The only way Flurry could be right is if Iran con...The only way Flurry could be right is if Iran conquered the other Muslim nations.<br /><br />Correct me if I'm wrong, though - I don't recall the King of the South being predicted to come together in that way. So I don't see how Iran, being the King of the South, is prophesied to conquer other nations in order to become said King of the South.xHWAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01061716053302210598noreply@blogger.com
