E. 162 Ends of Days; Comparative Eschatology

from Garden of Thought · host Jeff Lippman

Rev. Jim Willis fearlessly re-enters the Garden to discuss perhaps the most on brand episode yet: Doom. What are some of the major versions of the end of days. What are the differences? What are the similarities? Are we there now as many believe? Or is the old Chinese curse (may you live in interesting times) an eternal condition of human consciousness? From Ragnorak to Revelations to Judaism to Dharmic beliefs, there's usually an end of an age. But there's also a new beginning. Or survivors. Or a 1000 year pre-end of days before a final war. Is 7 the number of God? Is 7 good luck or bad luck: Seven seals, seven horns, seven sins, seven princes. Not all elites are created equal. Is any theology internally consistent? Who better to answer this than the author of some 20 books including "Armeggedon" and "The Religion Book".
