So why are hurricanes blessed with the mark of the divine? Why not how many days a caterpilar takes to become a butterfly? Or the phases of the moon cycle? Or how many teeth a rodent has? What’s the big mystery here? ---

Nobody here believes that it’s just ‘coincidence’ that T.S. Isaac(33) cancelled the 1st day of the RepubliCON CONvention, do they? And that Hurri.(74) Isaac striking New Orleans exactly on the 7-year Anniversary of Hurri.(74) Katrina(74) is a ‘coincidence’? **K11+A1+T20+R18+I9+N14+A1=74** GOD/nature created Hurri. Isaac to continue the curses He/She has put on Americans - primarily RepubliCONs - because of their sins, i.e. greed, excess luxury, prejudice, violence/gun proliferation, and following profits instead of prophets. The ‘Red States’/GOP is guilty of promoting Ronald(6 letters) Wilson(6) Reagan(6): _“the 1st Beast who was ruler(74) of the world, lied to all nations, and was wounded yet lived”_. George Walker Bush Jr.: \*“the 2nd Beast who imitated the 1st Beast and brought down fire from the heavens(74) with the destruction of Babylon \*(War In Iraq).” United(6) States(6) Dollar(6) is the \*“mark of the Beast that everyone must have to buy and sell with” - The Revelation Chapter 13 \*(The back of the US $1 Dollar Bill has the #13 encoded 13x.) Hurri. Isaac cancelling the 1st day of the RepubliCON’s CONvention is no ‘coincidence’. The title of the 74-page _“book/scroll”_ prophesied in _The Revelation 5:1-10:10_ is entitled **There Are No Coincidences - there is synchronism**. On its cover are the _“7 seals”_/‘beyond Einstein theories’ (google that). Everyone must choose GOD or GOP “The Christian Right is Neither!” Jesus was the BIGGEST liberal in history! ---

Ethilrist, Actually, you are WRONG. :smack: A T.S.(39) becomes a hurricane when it reaches 74 mph sustained winds - it’s a **Masonic(7,74) Code(4)**. :eek: GOD takes note of your flippant attitude towards Him. :mad: ---

While I will certainly admit that encountering a person who shares both an interest in Witnessing Writ Large and a simultaneous Left-leaning political disposition is interesting, I will also note that we can all read your text at normal size and that you will alienate far more posters then you impress when you post in an abnormally large font size. ---
