How’s this for “Tinfoil-hat”? From an article at Cutting Edge, a web publication which calls itself “Spiritual Insights Into The NEW WORLD ORDER You’ll Find So Startling You’ll Never Look At The News The Same Way Again” (I like to call it “S.I.I.T.N.W.O.Y.F.S.S.Y.N.L.A.T.N.T.S.W.A.” for short):
The following article is part of a series of articles relating to an Illuminati plan to ignite Jupiter as a “sign in the heavens” that will herald the coming of the New Age Christ [Antichrist]. You should read all related articles to get the full picture and understand why we reported it….
Alright that’s enough of that…
The ten-second version: the bad guys are going to light up the gasses of Jupiter like a big beacon to signal the coming of the AntiChrist, which, yes, comes at the End Of The World. You have got to check out that page just for the diagrams alone. Awesome. Sort of evocative of Alex Chiu’s Immortality Device or the TimeCube.
There is something nice about the symmetry of signalling the coming of the AntiChrist with a big new star- just as the Star of Bethlehem signalled the coming of Christ, according to legend. So, style points there.
However this idea does sound suspiciously like Arthur C Clarke’s 2010, in which Jupiter gets turned into a new star by aliens, so I have to deduct some points for plagerism. Maybe someone got stoned while watching TNT and 700 Club at the same time and got mixed up or something.
And, if you want to get even MORE obscure, Arthur C Clarke wrote ANOTHER story called “The Star” in which scientists visit a remote world on which an entire civilization was killed by its star going nova- and they find out that star was the Star of Bethlehem. A theme of the story being, what kind of God kills an entire civilization to signal something? I guess you could relate this to the Quran’s mention of how the djinn were the first race created on earth, and were made out of fire, but yadda yadda.
SHAC: And then?
