 @97954ff7  @d46cf433 for prophecy to be fulfilled, there's some buildings in the way of construction of the third temple that need some demolishing.  Wars are pretty efficient at destroying buildings. https://forward.com/culture/560201/red-heifer-third-temple-jerusalem/

It's not that I think these things have no meaning...

... just that we have no clue how to interpret them.

As a kid, we had quite a few Angus "red heifers" and, to my knowledge, nobody attached any special meaning to them.

It was Southwest Texas, though, not Jerusalem or some such.

How do (East) Indians feel about red heifers?  I hear they place special meaning on cows or some other animals.

 @d46cf433 I don't really have a lot of belief in the bible, it was written by man, hopefully the word of God is inspired in there.  What I do have is belief, that other people believe things way more strongly than I do, to the point that they go out of their way to enact them.  That link I sent, goes into how they've been working for decades now to genetically modify/breed the cow.  Is that God? 🤷‍♂️ It's still culminating a nodal point in time either way.  @97954ff7

 @d46cf433 I'm not personally subscribing to the idea that we are in the end times.  However, I can look at what the people who do believe that say and judge for myself.  I don't see God's hand creating any of things I am watching unfold in the world.  I do see God's hand guiding my family.  What I see in the world, is a hidden malicious force, seemingly bent on creating the story "prophesied" in the bible.  God did not write the bible.  @97954ff7
