Re: The wrap up phase
starman,
​
The kingdoms are of course by and large still here
​
Greece ceased to be a kingdom in 1974.

Re: The wrap up phase
starman,
​
I was under the impression that the prophecy referred to kingdoms, in which case it does matter. No king means no kingdom.

Re: days of the clays
starman,
​
I do not expect any of the ten kingdoms, or toes of the end to have a king
​
Then the prophecy fails.
​
It clearly states kingdoms are involved. Not social collectives, not democracies, not republics. If kingdoms are involved then there are kings.
​
If you are forced to interpret something as specific as "kingdom" as to be "not kingdom" then you are capable of any dishonest twisting of words to suit your needs. Your standard of prophecy validation is so loose & vague as to allow any prophecy to be fulfilled, because when the prophecy says white, you allow yourself to interpret it as any-colour-other-than-white, & hey presto! Prophecy fulfilled!
​
Useless, utterly useless.
