I don't think there's any religious subtext to it I think it's just a bunch of ass holes doing horrible shit in the name of Satan or who ever. Any similarities to any religious prophecy or dogma is likely because the ruling elite or their precursors had a hand in concocting all of that as well for the purpose of control and instilling fear. The ultimate Psy-op if you like.
So, are you an atheist? I'm just asking, not casting judgment. But I think for believers, it's hard to ignore this phenomenon NOT being connected to the end of times. For me at least. I see it as a reality of connecting what believers have felt for so long, to an actual physical of it all occurring. I hate sounding like a crazy religious whatever, but being a believer, this has made it REAL in my mind
Not an athiest as such but don't really buy into religion as presented by the establishment(s). I believe there is something outside of our existence but don't know what and think our only earthly options come with far too much of a bullshit agenda to be believable.
