| But the bible is not the only source of information and could be seriously wanting. I quote from "The Mayan Factor" by Jose Arguelles.
"When we look at the source of the Armageddon script, the Book of Revelations, we find that it is both unrelentingly righteous, making black and white distinctions between the saved and damned, and at the same time, as visionary a text as can be conceived. Most curiously, however, the number symbolism of the Book of Revelations possesses a profoundly Mayan overtone. The fact that Christ is the thirteenth in a group numbering twelve diciples is paramount. Then there is the incessant emphasis on the number seven repeated in any number of ways as the mystical underpinning of the entire revelation. And finally, there are the 144,000 elect, the exact same number as there are days of kin in the baktun.
Remembering that the baktun is a multi-dimensional harmonic term and that we are currently in the thirteenth cycle, Baktun 12, we may begin to wonder if there is not some deep bond between the Christian Revelation and the Mayan Factor that has been ignored or avoided in the orthodox ruling circles of the neo-Christian West. Could the New Jerusalem, New Heaven, and New Earth, be the same as the entry into the unimagable realm of the new cycle, the post-galactic symchronization following A.D. 2012, Mayan Calander date 13.0.0.0.0?"
Personally, I believe there is a connection between I Ching, the Mayan calander, Christian last days, pyramid of Gisa, tarot, astrology, and I feel much anger about the destruction of ancient documents done by Christians. It would be nice to give up this anger, but Christians continually stir it with their focus on the bible and intentional ignorance of everything else. (note: the word ignor is part of the word ignorance. Ignorance is to ignor something)
Especially when it comes to Revelations and Armageddon, and international relationships that could set off a nuclear holocaust, I wish they expand their sources of information.
God did not destroy ancient libraries around the world, Christians did, and I fear religious fanatics with their limited understanding of God and Allah, can destroy life on earth.
