It was a heavily symbolic write up of what was to come of the reign of Nero.

He isn't. That's the point. Revelations isn't about us.

[-] snausagesinablanket@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Yeah cause the bible mentions the US all the time.

Revelations, if taken for what they're said to be, a revelation of the last days, have a few items that are worth mentioning relevant to current events. -There will be a mark on people's hands or foreheads, without which one can't buy food. -A swarm like locusts will rise up and destroy stuff. -All nations will declare war on Israel.

That's just a few excerpts from memory, that could very easily be understood to fit with modern context. Aside from Israel no countries are mentioned by name iirc. Note that Israel did not exist at the time it was written, it was the Roman province Judea.

@Bigfishbest@lemmy.world could it refer to the vaccine ๐Ÿ’‰ marks ??

Anti-vaxxers are fucking idiots and the world is a better place without them.

[-] TheracAriane@thebrainbin.org 1 points 1 month ago

@FistingEnthusiast@lemmynsfw.com why grow jealous of idiots ?????

@Bigfishbest@lemmy.world

[-] FistingEnthusiast@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 1 month ago

Why would I be jealous of antivaxxers?

I just hope that their selfish stupidity doesn't hurt others

Each antivaxxer who dies from a preventable disease makes the world a slightly better place

@FistingEnthusiast@lemmynsfw.com the body doesn't need any vaccine. It's naturally resilient enough to any kind of disease. I never visit doctors nor take any medicine, and l never fall ill fyi. You may have some agenda against antivaxxers, but I don't allow any unnatural object inside my body. I just ensure that my hormones are humming in harmony, that's it.

God doesn't exist and it seems pretty apparent that you're mentally ill

Anyway, I'm blocking you

I sincerely hope that you don't reproduce. There are enough fuckwits in the world

It's religion, it can mean whatever you want it to mean.
