Why did the Christian messiah fail to fulfill the messianic prophecies?

The time of vengeance sounds like fun. Will there be cake?

Everything you post is bullshit.There, you got a response. Happy now?Edited by Dr Adequate, : No reason given.

Find me one person in ancient times who called it that or stop making shit up.

So, you can't find a single person in ancient times who called it Enoch's pillar?Then maybe you should stop saying so.

It's not been noticeable, has it?Let's see, 1997 ... Tony Blair became British Prime Minister, Mike Tyson bit that guy's ear off, and Tiger Woods became the youngest person to win the Masters. The first Harry Potter book came out. Scientists in Scotland announced the first mammalian clone.But no sign of the "1,000 year reign of the Lord called the Millenium" which you say is described in Revelation 20. Obviously the reign of Christ is very low-key.But I'll tell you what else I didn't notice. 'Cos the millennium is meant to come after the reign of the Beast (Revelation 13) of whom it is written "Power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb".I didn't notice anything like that happening, did you?This of course comes after Revelation 9. I guess the media must have hushed that up, yes?

It's weird, y'know, when we provide naturalistic explanations for things you get all snippy.

Instead of telling me silly lies about what I admit, why don't you try to answer the point?If the Millennium began in 1997, as you claim, then somehow the seven plagues of the seven angels, the worldwide reign of the Beast, and the Second Coming of Christ have all happened without anyone noticing. How come?

Please try to answer the question.If the Millennium began in 1997, as you claim, then somehow the seven plagues of the seven angels, the worldwide reign of the Beast, and the Second Coming of Christ have all happened without anyone noticing. How come?

But Jupiter goes retrograde every year. The Wise Men can't have thought that that was particularly significant; if they did they'd have turned up in Judea on an annual basis going "Have you seen the Messiah yet? Oh well, better luck next year." If you think that's exciting, wait 'til I tell you about this thing we've thought up called evolution, it'll blow your mind. All natural phenomena!

You may have replied to my post at length, but I don't see that you answered me in full, or indeed at all.I would settle for a much shorter answer, so long as it was an answer.Let's take this a bit at a time. If, as you say, we are living in the Millennium, then the seven plagues of the seven angels has already happened. Why did no-one notice?

I do. It's about time you did too.The reign of the Beast begins in Revelation 13.In Revelation 15 and 16 we get the seven angels with the seven last plagues: "And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image."In Revelation 19, the Beast is cast into the pit.And in Revelation 20 Christ begins his thousand year reign alongside "them that [...] had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands".If we are living in the Millennium, then the reign of the Beast and all the events concomitant with that have already happened, and no-one noticed.

But conjunctions of Venus and Jupiter also happen every year.

Which was how much exactly? By people who buy his hypothesis.

So far I have expressed the opinions that Jupiter goes retrograde once a year, and that conjunctions of Jupiter with Venus happen once a year. These opinions are neither wild nor unevidenced.
