Before you go, think about this…
In 1097 AD, the Christian Knights entered Jerusalem and in two days killed off everybody that had lived in the city—30,000 people. “Piles of heads, hands and feet were to be seen in the streets of the city… Not one of them was allowed to live. They did not spare the women or children. The horses waded in blood up to their knees, nay up to the bridle. It was a just and wonderful judgement of God.”
Give or take a few, it’s been 23771 months since the first coming of Christ ended. The Rapture can’t be long now… Can it?

The chemist Linus Pauling (1901-94) was, more than any other person, responsible for the Limited Test Ban Treaty of 1963, which halted above-ground explosions of nuclear weapons by the United States, the Soviet Union and the United Kingdom. He mounted a blistering campaign of moral outrage and scientific data, made more credible by the fact that he was a Nobel laureate. In the American press, he was generally vilified for his troubles, and in the 1950s the State Department cancelled his passport because he had been insufficiently anti-communist.
