Not as far gone as some other theories, but yet another "If you'd stop putting all your faith in what you know and believe me without thinking critically, it would make perfect sense" sites.

Almost as useless as the Time Cube, but for some inexplicable reason, this guy has a picture of a cute girl in a bikini. So it's not a total loss.

By the way, Spirit and I had a chat this afternoon. Spirit told me to take a nap, and I did. Isn't that wild?

Oh yeah, and the world will be eaten by ravenous space ants in the year 2112.

I like how everything is centered around the year 2000, not just this but crap like it.

The year 2000? My God! That's comes from a calendar made by HUMANS! It's a good thing someone didn't see fit to change the old calendar with a new one before that Gregor guy, or all sorts of divine and celestrial events would be off kilter. I mean really, what does the year 2000 equal using the Chinese calendar?

WHO ARE YOU?

Posted by First of Two (Member # 16) on :

I read that thing. That's nuts.

1. Our sun is NOT travelling in an orbit around anything other than our galaxy, and Alcione is definetly NOT at the center of the galaxy.

2. The Pleidaes are a star cluster, not a constellation. Constellations are human creations, and have no bearing on anything. many of the stars in constellations have NO relationship with each other other than the area of the sky they are in. Viewed from the side, they would be unrecognizable. This joker can't even get his terminology right.

3. The Pleidaes are young stars, freshly (astronomically speaking) emerged from the nebula in which they formed. They are quite a bit younger than our sun, and therefore an unlikely influence on Earthly god-beings of any type.

Damned double posts..

Anyway, the whole thing is pure Balderdash. Why, you might as well believe that I'm a Neo-Knight of the Glory Road, in the service of the Ex-Angel Chorevel, who fought against Sammael during the War, but abandoned Heaven during the Inquisition, in protest against the fact that nothing was being done by the Host to end the persecutions, and now roams the Earth trying to defend Humanity against incursions from BOTH sides.

That'd be easier to believe, and it's more internally consistent.

No, forget I said that. Don't believe that, either.

I have no interest in an e-conversation with someone who is quite obviously deranged.

Unless I'm talking to myself.
