Hurricane Joaquin

[Echolipse]

Just found out from a co-worker that Joaquin literally means "Raised/lifted up by Yahweh". The path that they're saying it's going to head is straight to DC. I even looked up when it was classified as a storm: September 28th.

When I was told and looked up the info, I laughed....hard. If it does end up hitting DC full-on, I'm going to laugh even harder. Yes, I'll feel bad for the people dealing with the hurricane, but ya.

It is headed out to sea.

It is headed out to sea.

Really? The info I have is less than 30min old.

and a third of the sea became blood.

A third of the living creatures in the sea died,

and a third of the ships were destroyed.

and George Washington rode a pale horse named Blue.

Yep, came across this later in the day when I had the chance to research a bit more than before. Hehe oh well.

I don't see what you're trying to get at with this post.

I wasn't aware of this, thanks for the info.

Another flippant (though thinly veiled) "prediction" of End times Punishment by God Bites the dust.

My tally so far, And I admit it's not complete, but from all the modern end times predictions I'v been able to compile, they all share one thing in common.
100% failure rate. 100%

Now it might be just me, but I'd be reticent to attach my wagon to that track record.

Just fyi, I wasn't trying to "predict" a end times punishment. I just found the bit of information interesting. If I had been (which I don't) I would have given a date of which it should be landing etc; which obviously I didn't. I was simply repeating some information I had gotten from a coworker and was curious to see yall's 2 cents. I felt the blood moons thing was interesting as well, me and my dad spoke several times on the current events and the blood moons, but we never predicted whether or not anything would happen. We both simply found it all interesting and we both waited to see if anything would happen.

I would think twice before accusing someone of "giving an End Times prediction" unless there is more information given on said "prediction" or if said person actually says something along the lines of "God will punch <insert people> on this day by <insert event>".

Ummm... you posted this in the ESCHATOLOGY section, not the current events or, physical & Life sciences section or Outdoors & Nature Section.... NO, you Chose ESCHATOLOGY, ergo, you were defacto asserting an Eschatological fulfillment to this particular Weather event, were you not?

Date setting isn't necessary to assert a prediction that a particular event has eschatological ramifications.
Just ask anyone here on CF who has been predicting failed end time scenarios for the past decade...

Indeed, This Hurricane has no eschatological connection or fulfillment whatsoever, as you post clearly implied.... ergo, "another one bites the dust."

Actually no, more of a "what do yall think of this". Yes, it had potential from the information and maps I had seen and received, but unless i was asserting that it was truly a fulfillment I would have been way more obvious. Plus, the hurricane hadn't even made landfall when I posted it, again, it was a "What do yall think of this? This is interesting." Obviously i could have worded my post better, but seriously dude chill out.

Oh and I knew exactly where i was posting it in and why I was doing it.

Also: Date setting is exactly that, setting a date for a certain specified event will happen. Hence the name "date setting".

Why did you choose to post this in Eschatology then, if you were not suggesting an eschatological meaning to it??

 

[Handmaid for Jesus]

I was not aware that posting a significant weather event was not allowed in this forum.

Well, I never implied anything like that so I'm not sure where you are getting that from?
I leave that to the Mods to decide what's allowed and what isn't..

Are you suggesting that asking someone who posts a significant weather event in the eschatology section to show a connection between that event and eschatology is out of bounds?

I mean, my kids' toilet overflowed this morning, causing a "significant" event in our basement bathroom, but I didn't start a thread about it in the eschatology section...I guess maybe I should have, since apparently we don't need to stick to eschatology here...

The accusatory tone here in your quote suggests to me that his posting it needed an eschatological meaning when it was already stated that it didn't. He chose to post it here, why is his business. And you sir are not a moderator.

 

[parousia70]

No, moderator I'm not.
And your accusatory tone toward me for having the audacity to question his reasons for posting an admittedly non eschatological post in the eschatology section has been noted.

 

[Jipsah]

Unless that weather event has some eschatological significance then it's off topic here. This forum is supposed to be about, ya know, eschatology, not the weather.

Although posts on bowling are on topic here.

 

[parousia70]

How about football? It is football season... And I can tie it to eschatology... Watch this:

What if Tim Tebow were raptured right as he was about to be sacked?

That would be Awesome.
