As reported by the very document that predicted them. Further, while I
recognize that you can drum up historical evidence to support these
predictions, I could parry that by asking which revision of the Bible we're
cconsidering to have predicted them? Are you reading the Aramaic, Koine
Greek, the Vulgate, Old English, or Modern English version? Which Word is
*the* Word, because they are *not* all the same.

Once again, circular, but okay.

If you're referring to The Rapture, then I'll buy you a drink when the
trumpets blow, but until then I'll maintain my skepticism.
