BLACKGRAVITY Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 watching the history channel... i seen this and kind of tripped me out.. the book of daniel was put together 200 years or so before revelations... St.John or whoever was suppose to have wrote rev... now... why is it that john is repeating daniels vision(dream/too much weed) as a matter of fact?.. seems like john ran out of shit to write and decided to pledgor from daniel... Daniel Chapter 7 "In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head upon his bed: then he wrote the dream, and told the sum of the matters. (7:2) Daniel spake and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea. (7:3) And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another. (7:4) The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it. (7:5) And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh. (7:6) After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it. (7:7) After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns. (7:8) I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things ---------- Rev 13:1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. Rev 13:2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as [the feet] of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. hmmmm.....

spamandham Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 The answer is obvious. The writer of Revelation was familiar with Daniel's mushrrom trip and incorporated it into his own mushroom trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadouKen24 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Nah, not shrooms. Rancid grain, more likely. Ergot poisoning was pretty common in those days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ouroboros Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Nah, not shrooms. Rancid grain, more likely. Ergot poisoning was pretty common in those days. Could be. Or led poisoning from the sophisticated water supply system the Romans had. The ergot is the explanation to the Salem witch hunt too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
