No doubt you are familiar with the Revelations section of the Bible where various events are predicted. Also mentioned is a brief period of time in which an archenemy of Christ, referred to as the Antichrist, will reign and his opinions will have sway. All this makes for very fantastic, entertaining reading but there is truth in it. This Antichrist represents the forces of Lucifer (literally, the "light bearer" or "light bringer"), Lucifer being a mythical representation of the forces of enlightenment, the Galactic Confederacy. My mission could be said to fulfill the Biblical promise represented by this brief Antichrist period. During this period there is a fleeting opportunity for the whole scenario to be effectively derailed, which would make it impossible for the mass Markabian landing (Second Coming) to take place. The Second Coming is designed, among other things, to trigger a rapid series of destructive events.

So what I was thinking/wondering was why do people continue to believe re-hashed versions of the above when they are so obviously just old stories being changed and retold to fit a purpose? (like the story of Christ and how the same stories about a "god-man" appear in many other cultures, but pre-date Christianity)
Why are we so gullible so often? And why is it that some of us never learn our lesson and keep believing this regurgitated garbage? I'm being very broad with the whole "we" thing by the way, so please don't take that as me me calling everyone in the world stupid and gullible. lol

I concur, but that's not what the post was about really. :p
