A Azna Goddess:
"Thou shalt have no other gods before me" (Ex. 20:3).
According to Sylvia Browne and her followers, Azna is the female side of God or the Mother God. Browne claims Azna has been worshipped by many names and in many cultures, since at least as far back as the ancient Greeks. In approximately 415 B.C. Plato wrote of her, calling her "Ge". The Romans revered her by the name of Terra Mater or the Mother of Earth.
A Brimstone:
Brimstone is a sign of God's wrath in the Holy Bible. In the Bible, they often appear in reference to the fate of the unfaithful. "Brimstone," possibly the ancient name for sulfur, evokes the acrid odor of volcanic activity. The Bible often renders passages about fiery torments with the phrase "fire and brimstone". In Genesis 19, God destroys Sodom and Gomorrah via a rain of fire and brimstone, and in Deuteronomy 29, the Israelites are threatened with the same punishment should they abandon their covenant with God. Elsewhere, divine judgments involving fire and sulphur are prophesied against Assyria (Isaiah 30), Edom (Isaiah 34), Gog (Ezekiel 38), and all the wicked (Psalm 11).
Fire and brimstone frequently appear as agents of divine wrath throughout the Book of Revelation culminating in chapters 19–21, wherein the devil and the ungodly are cast into a lake of fire and brimstone as an eternal punishment:
"And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone" (Revelation 19:20).
"And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever" (Revelation 20:10).
"But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death" (Revelation 21:8).
A Cometesimal:
A piece or fragment of a comet.
A Comet Moved:
After NASA's Deep Impact Mission, China revealed a plan to land a probe on a small comet or asteroid to push it off course. China will begin the mission after sending a probe to the Moon.
A Crow Foot:
According to some christians, the peace symbol (crow's foot, witch's foot, chicken's foot, or broken cross) is a satanic symbol. It was originally designed for the British nuclear disarmament movement. During WWII, the 3rd Panzer Division (Germany) used a symbol with the exact same appearance for reasons not at all related to nuclear disarmament. Their original logo had the characteristic of a Crows Foot shape. They likely chose it because the symbol itself is a Teutonic death rune, or the inverse of the forked cross (a symbol of life), to this use, many such symbols were found on Nazi graves and called The Dead Man Rune.
A Disco Music:
The disco sound, style and ethos has its roots in the late 1960s. They included overwhelming sound, free form dancing, "trippy" lighting, colorful costumes, and hallucinogens. In addition to the dance and fashion aspects of the disco club scene, there was also a thriving drug subculture, particularly for drugs that would enhance the experience of dancing to the loud music and the flashing lights, such as cocaine. The club scene was also full of rampant promiscuity and public sex. Disco's popularity peaked during the middle to late 1970s. It had its roots in clubs that catered to African American, psychedelic and other communities in New York City and Philadelphia during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Disco was a reaction particularly among New York City's gays but also heterosexual blacks and Latinos against both the domination of rock music and the demonetization of dance music by the counterculture during this period.
An angry backlash against disco music and culture emerged in the United States hitting its peak with the July 1979 Disco Demolition Night riot. While the popularity of disco in the United States declined markedly as a result of the backlash, the genre continued to be popular elsewhere during the 1980s.
A Fraud Prince:
According to Revelation, Lucifer will pretend to be Jesus the Prince of Peace.
See Prince of Peace. Also See Satan Trick and A Lucifer Sham
Adulations:
The act of giving excessive compliments, generally for the purpose of ingratiating oneself with the subject.
A Gay Rainbow:
The rainbow was adopted as a symbol of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) pride and diversity by San Francisco artist Gilbert Baker in 1978. The different colors symbolize diversity in the gay community, and is used predominantly at gay pride events and in gay villages worldwide in various forms including banners, clothing and jewelry.
A Hailstorm:
Hail is a form of solid precipitation which consists of balls or irregular lumps of ice, that are individually called hail stones. Hail stones on Earth consist mostly of water ice and measure between 5 and 150 millimeters in diameter, with the larger stones coming from severe thunderstorms.
A Homo sapien:
The biological classification of humans, the only extant species of the primate family Hominidae, the great ape family.
AIDS Monkey:
An international group of scientists has traced the ancestry of the virus that caused AIDS back to strains found in African monkeys. Two different monkey virus strains combined in chimpanzees to create the HIV virus which was then passed on to humans, the scientists told the journal Science.
A Imposter:
Someone who attempts to deceive by using an assumed name or identity or other devious disguise.
A Jesus Freak:
Jesus freak was used as a pejorative term for various Christian groups that combine a hippy communal way of life with zealous evangelicalism during the late 1960s and early 1970s. In Australia, and other countries, the term Jesus freak, along with Bible basher, is still used in a derogatory manner.
A Lenticular: See UFO Clouds
Alien Cults:
Alien cults typically have a doctrine that extensively integrates a role for an alien and/or UFO presence in their belief system. Adherents believe that the arrival or rediscovery of alien civilizations, technologies and spirituality will enable humans to overcome their current ecological, spiritual and social problems. Issues such as hatred, war, bigotry, poverty and so on are said to be resolvable through the use of superior alien technology and spiritual abilities. Aliens are not coming to help mankind or to save mankind from self-destruction.
Salvation is only possible through God. "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life" (John 3:16). John 3:16 teaches us that anyone who believes in Jesus Christ will be saved. Place your faith in Christ, NOT aliens.
Alien Friends:
"But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed" (Gal.1:8).
According to the Vatican's chief astronomer Jesuit Fr José Funes, aliens might exist, and Christians should treat them as an "extra-terrestrial brother" and part of God's creation. But aliens are not our brothers or friends. They are demons and enemies of man. The Bible states that they were here before and are coming back. Jesus said,"But as the days of Noah were, so also shall it be in the days of the coming of the Son of man" (Matt. 24:37). This means that just as the fallen angels came and took the daughters of men for wives in the days of Noah and produced the Giants (Nephilim), that it will happen again in the last days.
Alien pi Circle:
In June 2008, a crop circle appeared in a barley field near Barbury Castle in Wiltshire, England, measuring 150 feet in diameter and correctly representing the first 10 digits of the irrational constant pi. Michael Reed, the astrophysicist who first decoded the image, is quoted on earthfiles.com as saying: "The fact that the Pi decimal point is included and there is rounding up to 10 decimal places is to me a little mind boggling!"
Lucy Pringle, a crop circle researcher, was quoted in The Scotsman as finding it hard to believe such an intricate crop circle could have been created by humans, and whilst there was rain the night before it appeared, there was no mud inside the formation. According to her: "You can do it on a computer, but you try putting that in a field in the middle of the night and achieving that degree of mathematical accuracy." Pringle's theory is that crop circles are created by a spiralling electromagnetic force that hits the ground for a nanosecond.
Local councillor Stewart Dobson said: "It's hard to believe somebody managed to work (the design) out so it shows pi so accurately. It's either a very educated person who has done it or a very educated alien." Plus tends to think that an alien capable of making it millions of light years across the Universe to visit us is more than likely to have some understanding of pi...
Alien Sigils:
"Sigils" are line drawings and diagrams that serve as signatures of entities accessible to a trained magician familiar with "Enochian calls" and other methods of summoning "spirits". A grimoire is a directory of such sigils, and a manual for their use.
According to British occultist, novelist, and poet, Kenneth Grant: "ritual magic to invoke these 'alien entities'". In Outside the Circles of Time, Grant writes:
“Some believe that the UFO phenomena are part of the "miracle", and a mounting mass of evidence seems to suggest that mysterious entities have been located within the earth's ambience for countless centuries and that more and more people are being born with innate ability to see, or in some way sense their presence... Prayer for deific intervention in ancient times has now become a cri de coeure to extra-terrestrial or interdimensional entities, according to whether the manifestations are viewed as occuring within man's consciousness, or outside himself in apparently objective but often invisible entities. New Isis Lodge has in its archives the sigils of some of these entities. The sigils com from a grimoire of unknown origin which forms a part of the dark quabalahs of Besqul, located by magicians in the Tunnel of Quliefi. The grimoire describes Four Gates of extraterrestrial entry into, and emergence from, the known Universe.”
A Lucifer Sham = A Jesus Sham = A Messiah Sham:
"And he opened the bottomless pit, and smoke arose out of the pit like the smoke of a great furnace. So the sun and the air were darkened because of the smoke of the pit. Then out of the smoke locusts came upon the earth. And to them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power" (Rev 9:2-3).
The bottomless pit is also called the abyss or the deep, like the ocean. It is a giant jail cell for the demons. When Lucifer is given the key to his jail cell he opens it.
Immediately, Lucifer and his evil angels escape from the bottomless pit. Satan and his angels will not appear as the evil demons they are but instead will appear as Jesus and His millions of heavenly angels. They will disguise themselves as holy angels and will appear with clouds and glory so that the people on earth believe that Jesus and His angels have come back to earth.
Lucifer will claim that he and his angels have come to save people from the awful judgments that have come upon the world during the first four trumpets. He will tell people that all they have to do is worship him and he will protect and save them.
Lucifer will be disguised as Jesus. Most people will believe that Lucifer is Jesus.

A Medicine Wheel:
Medicine wheels, or sacred hoops, were constructed by laying stones in a particular pattern on the ground. Most medicine wheels follow the basic pattern of having a center of stone(s), and surrounding that is an outer ring of stones with "spokes", or lines of rocks radiating from the center. Some ancient types of sacred architecture were built by laying stones on the surface of the ground in particular patterns common to aboriginal peoples. Originally, and still today, medicine wheels are stone structures constructed by certain indigenous peoples of North America for various astronomical, ritual, healing, and teaching purposes.
A Merlin Magick:
Merlin is one of the original line of Mystics in ancient British folklore and has become an icon to many people interested in the mystical, in arcane magic and spirituality. Merlin is reported to have been a well practised necromancer as well as sorcerer or wizard and prophet. Merlin was said to be the child of a mortal woman and a daimon (the word for a spirit and from Greek-derivation), which was later re-interpreted by Christian writers, implying that Merlin was fathered by a/the Devil himself.
A NASA Answer:
NASA will come up with a solution to a problem it encounters in space.
A Nasa Plan Failed:
This may be a reference to NASA's planetary defense system.
Andromeda Alien:
The Andromeda Galaxy is a spiral galaxy approximately 2.5 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Andromeda. Andromeda, the nearest galaxy to the Milky Way is 2 million light years distant. This means that if there were aliens in Andromeda, it would take them longer than 2 million years to come to earth...atleast according to our current technology assuming that aliens have not surpassed us in that field.
The Andromeda Galaxy has appeared in a number of science fiction works, as a source of alien life forms that invade the Milky Way galaxy, or as a setting for alien worlds and territories.
A Number Nine:
Ancient Greek pagans held nine sacred because to them nine symbolized the 9 Muses or sister goddesses, daughters of Zeus and Mnenosyne, who were believed to preside over mankind's activities on earth. Their names were--Calliope, Clio, Erato, Euterpe, Melpomene, Polyhymnia, Terpsichore, Thalia, Urania.
Nine was also a significant number to the Etruscans. These ancient pagan people from north west Italy worshipped nine gods. Nine was also a holy number in Rome. According to Texe Marrs, "the Romans honored the goddess Nundina by holding a purification ceremony for male infants on their nineth day of life. In addition, every ninth year the Romans held a feast in memory of the dead."
Satanists take delight in the number nine for a couple of reasons. First, Satanists enjoy reversing, mirroring and inverting symbols, letters and numbers. When you turn the number "9" upside down you get "6" which makes up the number of the Beast (666) as revealed in Revelation 13:18 in the Bible. Second, Satanists take perverse pleasure in commemorating the death of Christ and the death of Christ is associated with the number nine. Mark 15: 34-37 reveals that Christ spoke his last words on the Cross of Calvary at the ninth hour and "gave up the ghost (died)."
In summary, the number 9 is an important numeric symbol to many occult groups and sole practitioners. Unlike the number 13 that almost all people know has some superstitious implications, the number 9 would be considered "just another number" by the average person.
A Poison Gas: See Phosgene Gas
Apostates:
One who renounces thier faith and leaves a religious order which is not only considered a serious crime in the eyes of the Church, but also a breach of faith with God.
A Skin Disease: See Skin Cancers
A Sonar Device:
Aliens use a sonar stun gun to subdue their victims. The gun emits intense bursts of sound that stuns the victim (meaning it paralyzes the victim). The sonar gun is not used for the mere purpose of subduing a victim. Aliens have deceptively poor eyesight, so they use the sonar device to track them as well through echolocation. Animals (or machines) that use echolocation to actively emit pulses of sound and detect targets by interpreting the reflected echoes.
People are not entirely defenseless against sonar. One potential defense is to jam the alien sonar by emitting so much noise that the echo becomes lost. This is similar to what we see in nature. Scientists have discovered a species of tiger moth that thwarts hungry bats by emitting extra-loud clicks to block the bats’ ability to echolocate. Researchers have long known that some species of moths send out clicks in response to bat sonar, but until now, no one has been able to prove that the clicks actually interfere with echolocation. The disadvantage of using this type of defense is that the alien can then home in on the jamming. The target can also spoof the sonar equipment by altering the echo so that it appears to be coming from a different place.
A Sun Flares:
A sun flare or solar flare is a large explosion in the Sun's atmosphere. Solar flares affect all layers of the solar atmosphere (photosphere, corona, and chromosphere), heating plasma to tens of millions of kelvins and accelerating electrons, protons, and heavier ions to near the speed of light. They produce radiation across the electromagnetic spectrum at all wavelengths, from radio waves to gamma rays. Most flares occur in active regions around sunspots, where intense magnetic fields penetrate the photosphere to link the corona to the solar interior. Flares are powered by the sudden (timescales of minutes to tens of minutes) release of magnetic energy stored in the corona. If a solar flare is exceptionally powerful, it can cause coronal mass ejections.
A Vegetable Oil:
Vegetable fats and oils are lipid materials derived from plants. A high consumption of omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), which are found in most types of vegetable oil (e.g. soybean oil, corn oil - the most consumed in USA, sunflower oil, etc.), may increase the likelihood that postmenopausal women will develop breast cancer.
A World Panic:
Crisis that could trigger a panic around the world.
A Wrong Road:
A man driving is along a narrow stretch of highway. It is night and very dark. Suddenly he sees a fork in the road. He does not know which road to take. He is bewildered. At last he chooses a road. He doesn't know where the road will lead. He has left his home and is looking for a better place to live. There is unemployment and high living expenses in his town and he does not want to stay there any more. He hopes he has chosen the right road. He hopes it will lead to a better life.
Our lives are like a journey. But do we know where we are going and how to get there? Or are we like the driver who chooses one of the roads without knowing which is right? We should know whether we are on the right road or not. When the journey through life is over we cannot travel it again.
The road of life is full of sin and sorrow. Satan tries to deceive us so that we will choose the wrong road.
Some will ask, "But don't all roads lead to God?" No, many roads lead to hell. In hell, men are separated from God forever.
Is there a road which leads to God? Yes, but there is only one road. It is a road which God has made for all who will take it.
How can you find this way to God? You must believe in Jesus. Jesus will lead you in the right direction. By believing and following Jesus you will find the road that leads to God and happiness.
A WWE Campaign:
In 2007, World Wrestling Entertainment promoted the return of Chris Jericho with a viral marketing campaign using 15-second cryptic binary code videos. The videos contained hidden messages and biblical links related to Jericho, although speculation existed throughout WWE fans over whom the campaign targeted. The text "Save Us" and "2nd Coming" were most prominent in the videos. The campaign spread throughout the internet with numerous websites, though no longer operational, featuring hidden messages and biblical links to further hint at Jericho's return.
A Yoshida-san:
In February 15, 2011 the US released video the video game "Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together" for PSP comes with a pre-order bonus of Tarot Cards illustrated by Yoshida-san himself.
Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together has two new systems named after the tarot cards called the “C.H.A.R.I.O.T.” (Combat History and Refined Implementation of Tactics) in which players are able to take back moves, and the “W.O.R.L.D.” (Ways of Reordering Life’s Destiny) system in which players can turn back time with their current party. Each action is a system that changes a destiny, and together we call the two systems the “ring of destiny.”
The Tarot cards play an important role in the game. When you begin a new game, you will be asked several questions with Tarot cards (there will be 5 of them). Depends on answer, your main character will have different base status. Tarot cards are also essential to getting specialty items. Based on the answers given by the player, the main character’s parameter varies in the beginning of the game.
Bless Idols:
Sacramentals are liturgical ceremonies instituted by the Catholic Church that bear some resemblance to the seven sacraments and dispose the Christian to receive and cooperate with grace. Each includes a prayer of blessing accompanied by a sacred sign representing benefits obtained through the intercession of the Church. Normally, an ordained minister (bishop, priest, or deacon) presides over the sacramental blessings of the Church.
The range of objects that come under the influence of the Church's blessing is comprehensive. Crosses, images or statues of the Lord, of the Virgin Mary and saints, church organs, processional banners, new bells for church uses and for other purposes, dress and cinctures worn in honour of the Virgin Mary and of other saints, monstrances, reliquaries, vessels for Holy Oils, church ornaments, clerical habits, medals, pictures, and crosses for the Stations, rosaries of all the recognized kinds, water, candles, the Trisagion of the Holy Trinity, the different scapulars of the Virgin Mary, of St. Joseph, St. Michael the Archangel, houses, schools, and cars can all be blessed by priests.
Comcast Cables:
Comcast Corporation was founded in 1963, is the largest cable operator in the United States, providing cable television, broadband Internet, and telephone service to both residential and commercial customers.
Comcast has been a source of controveries. On May 1, 2007, during a broadcast of the preschool progam Handy Manny, Comcast had briefly replaced the program on Disney Channel's cable channel assignment with hard-core pornography for subscribers in Lincroft, New Jersey.
On February 7, 2008, Comcast subcribers in Nashville, Tennessee also saw pornography via the cable provider on Cartoon Network. The incident which happened in the early morning hours, and was broadcast for at least an hour.
Comet Collide:
Comets start in the Oort Cloud or the Kuiper Belt. When something forces the comet into motion, if two comets collide for example, then one or both is sent tumbling out into space.
Comet Trail:
Most stargazers are familiar with the dust and gas tails that form when a comet comes close to the Sun. But less well known is a comet's trail, the river of dusty debris shed by the nucleus that travels ahead of and behind it along the orbit. This kind of material that creates meteor showers whenever Earth passes through it.
Comets Bombed:
NASA has sent a probe on a collision course with a comet's nucleus to find out more about the composition and history of the bodies. The mission was dubbed "Deep Impact". Scientists hope that the space craft will create a crater in the surface of the comet, and so allow them a glimpse of the interior.
Also may refer to future plans to bomb a comet. Detonating an explosive nuclear device above the surface (or on the surface or beneath it) would be one option, with the blast vaporizing part of the surface of the object and nudging it off course with the reaction. This is a form of nuclear pulse propulsion. Even if not completely vaporized, the resulting reduction of mass from the blast combined with the radiation blast and rocket exhaust effect from ejecta could produce positive results.
Another proposed solution is to detonate a series of smaller nuclear devices alongside the asteroid, far enough away as not to fracture the object. Providing this was done far enough in advance, the relatively small forces from any number of nuclear blasts could be enough to alter the object's trajectory enough to avoid an impact. This is a form of nuclear pulse propulsion.
Comet Wreck:
Destruction and debris left in the wake of a comet.
Confusion:
A lack of clarity or order; The state of being confused; not understanding.
D.D.Winters:
Denise Katrina Matthews better known by her former stage name Vanity, but sometimes credited as Denise Matthews-Smith or D.D. Winters, is a Canadian-born former singer, songwriter, dancer, actress, and model. She was the lead singer for the female trio Vanity 6, which recorded the 1982 R&B hit "Nasty Girl". She is now currently a Christian preacher.
Vanity formally gave up her stage name and became a born-again Christian in 1994, the year she almost died from the effects of smoking crack cocaine. Matthews was consumed by her addiction and haunted by demons. She claims:“I'd wept in every corner of my room while the death demon delighted in my misery. I awoke often to see devils crawling onto my bed and strangling me with an uncontrollable force.”
After being rushed to the hospital, doctors said she had three days left to live while on life support. According to her, Jesus came to her during this time and said if she promised to give up her Vanity persona, he will save her. However, just because she experienced an apparition does not mean the message came from God or that Jesus really spoke to her. Scripture declares that Satan and his demons masquerade as angels of light (2Cor.11:14-15). Satanic deception is just as possible an explanation for the apparitions.
Death Tolls:
The number of deaths resulting from some particular cause such as an accident or a battle or a natural disaster.
Disrupted:
An interruption to the regular flow or sequence of something. A continuing act of disorder.
Dust Devil:
A dust devil is a strong, well-formed, and relatively long-lived whirlwind, ranging from small (half a meter wide and a few meters tall) to large (more than 10 meters wide and more than 1000 meters tall). The primary vertical motion is upward. Dust devils are usually harmless, but rare ones can grow large enough to threaten both people and property.
In the southwestern United States, a dust devil is sometimes called a "dancing devil" or a "sun devil". In Death Valley, California, it may be called a "sand auger" or a "dust whirl". The Navajo refer to them as chiindii, ghosts or spirits of dead Navajos. If a chindi spins clockwise, it is said to be a good spirit; if it spins counterclockwise, it is said to be a bad spirit.
The Australian "willy-willy" or "whirly-whirly" is thought to derive from Yindjibarndi or a neighboring language. In Aboriginal myths, willy willies represent spirit forms. They are often quite scary spirits, and parents may warn their children that if they misbehave, a spirit will emerge from the spinning vortex of dirt and chastise them.
In Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Iran, Kazakhstan, and Jordan, they are referred to as djin ("genies" or "devils").
Egypt has its fasset el 'afreet, or "ghost's wind".
Among the Kikuyu of Kenya, the dust devil is known as ngoma cia aka, meaning "women's devil/demon".
Dynasties:
A dynasty is a succession of people belonging to the same family, who, through various means and forms maintain power, influence or authority over the course of generations. Most commonly the term is used specifically in reference to royal houses and imperial dynasties — their authority manifests itself as the sovereign of a state or territory. Usually in much of the world, such dynasties and noble houses are defined patrilineally, with inheritance and kinship being predominantly viewed and legally calculated through descent from a common ancestor in the male line. The female line is normally only considered once the male lineage has died out. Other forms of dynasties include political families in republics and also with the rise of mercantilism prominent business and financial dynasties, such as the Rothschild family. These do not carry the public prestige of a monarch but are influential.
Every Alien:
Aliens or extraterrestrials are beings that do not originate from planet Earth. New Age adherents are claiming that Aliens are attempting to help lead us Earthlings into the new, higher levels of consciousness that will allow The Christ to appear. Remember the Apostle Paul's prophetic warning in 2 Cor 11:14, "...Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." Satan has caused his demons to physically manifest themselves as Aliens, traveling in UFO's, complete with highly technological machines. All aliens are demons. Aliens are not to be trusted. Every alien is evil. The only good alien is a dead alien.
Fornicating:
"Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed undefiled; but fornicators and adulterers God will judge" (Heb. 13:4).
Fornication is sexual intercourse between persons not married. Paul writes in I Corinthians 6:9-11, "Know you not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the Kingdom of God? Be not deceived, neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners shall inherit the Kingdom of God." God says fornication is a sin and those who commit such things will not inherit the Kingdom of God. It is not sex which God condemns, but it's misuse outside the marriage bond.
Gay Movies:
Lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender-related films. These films that deal with or feature gay, lesbian or bisexual or transgender characters or issues and may have same-sex romance or relationships as an plot device.
Ghost Séance:
A ghost séance is an attempt to communicate with spirits of the dead. The communication is done via a medium. The medium may go into a trance that theoretically allows the spirits to communicate through his or her body, conveying messages to the other participants. Other modes of communication may also be attempted, including psychography or automatic writing, numbered raps, levitation of the table or of spirit trumpets, apports, smell, ouija oracles, etc.
God has given us strong warnings in the Bible on the topic of whether or not we should attempt to contact the dead or other spirits (i.e. angels, saints, deceased family members or friends, etc). The Bible states: "Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I [am] the LORD your God" (Lev.19:31).
The Bible teaches that the dead are unconscious and cannot communicate with the living. According to the Bible: "His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish" (Ps.146:4). If there is any supernatural activity in the seance, it is most certainly not the spirit of the departed one speaking through the medium. It is not possible according to the Scriptures to contact the spirits of the dead.
In 1 Samuel 28:7 Saul consults a medium (the Witch of Endor) that calls up the spirit of Samuel (who was a great prophet of God, and was dead at the time). The Witch of Endor was a woman who practiced the black arts. She would charge a fee for such services as consulting the dead and fortune telling. Alas for Saul, Samuel, through the witch, predicted that Saul's army would lose the upcoming battle and that Saul would be killed in the fight. Did the witch conjure Samuel or a demonic entity? The witch did not get her power from God but from a familiar spirit, which the Bible teaches are deceiving demonic spirits.
Haiti Shaking:
The 2010 Haiti earthquake was a catastrophic magnitude 7.0 Mw earthquake. Its epicentre was near the town of Léogâne, approximately 25 km (16 miles) west of Port-au-Prince, Haiti's capital.
An estimated three million people were affected by the quake; the Haitian Government stated on 10 February 2010 that 230,000 people had been identified as dead and an estimated 300,000 injured had been treated. They also estimated that 250,000 residences and 30,000 commercial buildings had collapsed or were severely damaged.
Huge Comets:
Comets are very small in size relative to planets. Their average diameters usually range from 750 meters (2,460 feet) or less to about 20 kilometers (12 miles). Evidence has been found for much larger distant comets, perhaps having diameters of 300 kilometers (186 miles) or more, but these sizes are still small compared to planets. The size of a comet changes depending on how close it is to the sun. As a comet gets closer to the sun, the ices on the surface of its nucleus vaporize and form a cloud called a coma around the nucleus that can expand out to 50,000 miles (80,000 km). A tail also forms on a comet as it approaches the sun. Comet tails can be over 600,000 miles (1 million km) long.
Hugo Chávez:
Hugo Rafael Chávez Frías is the President of Venezuela. Hugo Chavez came to power in 1999. Over the last eleven years, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has undertaken a series of radical political reforms that have transformed Venezuela from a liberal democracy to a socialist state.
As the increasingly authoritarian Latin American leader implements what he calls "21st century socialism," Church organizations are finding it difficult to operate in Venezuela.
According to the 2009 annual report from the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom, an independent panel that advises the U.S. government on religious liberty around the globe, Venezuelan "religious communities and leaders viewed as political opponents are routinely targeted and harassed by government officials." Chavez frequently lashes out at the Roman Catholic Church in Venezuela. He has publicly derided the Church as a "tumour" and dismissed Catholic leaders as "mental retards."
Hurricanes:
A tropical cyclone is a storm system characterized by a large low pressure center and numerous thunderstorms that produce strong winds and flooding rain. Tropical cyclones feed on heat released when moist air rises, resulting in condensation of water vapor contained in the moist air.
Irreligion:
Irreligion is an absence of, indifference towards or hostility towards religion. Depending on the context, it may be understood as referring to atheism, nontheism, agnosticism, ignosticism, antireligion, skepticism, freethought, antitheism or secular humanism. Sometimes deism is also included in this group.
Long Hair Men:
"Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?" (1Cor. 11:14)
For the man’s part, it is unnatural for him to have “long hair”. His hair is naturally shorter (and thinner) than the woman’s. This corresponds to the Corinthian tradition of men not wearing a head covering during worship. Men should adhere to the culturally accepted indicators of gender. Men should look like men, and women should look like women. Men and women have different, God-ordained roles, and part of that difference is shown by their hair. A man's hair should look masculine. A woman's hair should look feminine.
Long hair brings dishonor upon a man. God intends that we make a clear distinction between men and women in both grooming and dress (Deuteronomy 22:5). The length of one's hair is a most important line of distinction to God.
Masonic Nine:
According to the book "Numbers: Their Occult Power and Mystic Virtues" by W. W. Wescott nine holds great significance among many Masonic orders and secret societies. He said, "There is a Masonic order of Nine Elected Knights in which nine roses, nine lights, and nine knocks are used." In fact the number nine is the number of "the earth under evil influences."
"If the number three was celebrated among the ancient sages, that of three times three had no less celebrity; because, according to them, each of the three elements which constitute our bodies is ternary: the water containing earth and fire; the earth containing igneous and aqueous particles; and the fire being tempered by globules of water and terrestrial corpuscles which serve to feed it. No one of the three elements being entirely separated from the others, all material beings composed of these three elements, whereof each is triple, may be designated by the figurative number of three times three, which has become the symbol of all formations of bodies. Hence the name of ninth envelop given to matter. Every material extension, every circular line, has for its representative sign the number nine among the Pythagoreans, who had observed the property which this number possesses of reproducing itself incessantly and entire in every multiplication; thus offering to the mind a very striking emblem of matter, which is incessantly composed before our eyes, after having undergone a thousand decompositions.
The number nine was consecrated to the Spheres and the Muses. It is the sign of every circumference; because a circle or 360 degrees is equal to nine, that is to say, 3+6+0=9. Nevertheless, the ancients regarded this number with a sort of terror; they considered it a bad presage; as the symbol of versatility, of change, and the emblem of the frailty of human affairs. Wherefore they avoided all numbers where nine appears, and chiefly 81, the produce of nine multiplied by itself, and the addition whereof, 8+1, again presents the number nine. As the figure of the number six was the symbol of the terrestrial globe, animated by a Divine Spirit, the figure of the number nine symbolized the earth, under the influence of the Evil Principle; and thence the terror it inspired. Nevertheless, according to the Cabalists, the character nine symbolizes the generative egg, or the image of a little globular being, from whose lower side seems to flow its spirit of life. The Ennead, signifying an aggregate of nine thongs or persons, is the first square of unequal numbers. Every one is aware of the singular properties of the number nine, which, multiplied by itself or any other number whatever, gives a result whose final sum is always nine, or always divisible by nine. Nine multiplied by each of the ordinary numbers, produces an arithmetical progression, each member whereof, composed of two figures, and presents a remarkable fact; for example:
1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . 5 . 6 . 7 . 8 . 9 . 10
9 . 18 . 27 . 36 . 45 . 54 . 63 . 72 . 81 . 90
The first line of figures gives the regular series, from 1 to 10. The second reproduces this line doubly; first ascending from the first figure of 18, and then returning from the second figure of 81. In Freemasonry, nine derives its value from its being the product of three multiplied into itself, and consequently in Masonic language the number nine is always denoted by the expression three times three. For a similar reason, 27, which is 3 times 9, and 81, which is 9 times 9, are esteemed ax sacred numbers in the advanced Degrees" (Source: Mackey's Encyclopedia of Freemasonry).
NASA Problem:
Nasa will discover a problem out in space. There is a lot of speculation that the earth will be hit by a large comet. This may pose a problem in the future.
NASA At Fault:
There will be a problem out in space. NASA will be responsible.

Oh God and Sex:
"Staying in bed and shouting "Oh God!" does not constitute going to church".
God usually comes up at least once in the throes of sexual ectasy. "Oh God . . .Oh my God . . .Oh God don't stop . . ." are not uncommon phrases preceding intense orgasms. Sex is not a religious experience. Stop calling on God during sex.
Call on God when you need help: "And it shall come to pass, [that] whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved" (Acts 2:21).
Overeating:
"Be not among winebibbers; among riotous eaters of flesh: For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness shall clothe a man with rags" (Pro.23:20-21).
Many people's problem with eating is the problem of overeating. This problem usually develops by eating that little extra helping of food. Overeating generally refers to the long-term consumption of excess food in relation to the energy that an organism expends (or expels via excretion), leading to weight gaining and often obesity.
The Word of God has much to say about man's eating habits. Many sicknesses that are plaguing mankind stem directly from unhealthy eating habits. In the above verse gluttony is listed along with drunkenness. Although, society doesn't look down on overeating that much. The Bible declares this is a serious sin and warns us to resist yielding to this kind of appetite.

Phosgene Gas:
Phosgene is the chemical compound with the formula COCl2. At room temperature (70°F), phosgene is a poisonous gas. This colorless gas gained infamy as a chemical weapon during World War I.
Phosgene was used extensively during World War I as a choking (pulmonary) agent. Among the chemicals used in the war, phosgene was responsible for the large majority of deaths. Some soldiers during the First World War stated that it smelled faintly of mayblossom. At high concentrations, the odor may be strong and unpleasant.

Pride Parades:
Pride parades for the LGBT community (also known as gay pride parades, pride events and pride festivals) are events celebrating lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) culture. The events also at times serve as demonstrations for legal rights such as same-sex marriage.
Prince of Peace:
"For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace" (Isaiah 9:6).
The messianic prophecy of a child being born who will be the "Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace" has its fulfillment in the life of Jesus.
What is Peace? According to Webster's dictionary, peace is a state of tranquillity, quiet, calm, freedom from civil disturbance, A state of security - being secure within a community, freedom from oppression, strife and disorder.
A world crisis will produce the Antichrist. Lucifer will come during a time of universal disaster, promising peace and claiming to be the prince of peace. He will perform miracles unlike anything the world has ever seen. Many will be deceived by him.
Pyramid Map:
All 50 pyramids in Lower Egypt replicate the prime stars on one side of the Milky Way. According to Robert Bauval’s theory the three main pyramids of Giza conclusively represent Orion. The pyramids provide coordinates to the stars.
Revelator:
Revelator is an ecclesiastical title used in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints that is currently applied to the members of the First Presidency and the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles. In the past, it has also been applied to the Presiding Patriarch of the church and the Assistant President of the Church.
A revelator makes known, with the Lord’s help, something before unknown. It may be new or forgotten truth, or a new or forgotten application of known truth to man’s need. Always, the revelator deals with truth, certain truth (D&C 100:11) and always it comes with the divine stamp of approval. Revelation may be received in various ways, but it always presupposes that the revelator has so lived and conducted himself as to be in tune or harmony with the divine spirit of revelation, the spirit of truth, and therefore capable of receiving divine messages.
Royalty:
The rank, status, power or authority of a monarch. A monarchy is a form of government in which supreme power is absolutely or nominally lodged with an individual, who is the head of state, often for life or until abdication, and "is wholly set apart from all other members of the state." The person who heads a monarchy is called a monarch. It was a common form of government in the world during ancient and medieval times.
The monarch signifies persons who possesses supreme power over a land and it's inhabitants. In fact, God is the only supreme being and King. In the Bible 1 Timothy 1:17 states: "Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen." Also in 1 Timothy 6:13-16: "In the sight of God, who gives life to everything, and of Christ Jesus, who while testifying before Pontius Pilate made the good confession, I charge you to keep this command without spot or blame until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, which God will bring about in his own time - God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honor and might forever. Amen."
Sacred Bull:
The worship of the Sacred Bull throughout the ancient world is most familiar to the Western world in the biblical episode of the idol of the Golden Calf made by Aaron and worshipped by the Hebrews in the wilderness of Sinai (Exodus). Marduk is the "bull of Utu". Shiva's steed is Nandi, the Bull. The sacred bull survives in the constellation Taurus. The bull, whether lunar as in Mesopotamia and Egypt or solar as in India, is the subject of various other cultural and religious incarnations, as well as modern mentions in new age cultures.
Satanic Sign:
The sign of the horns is a hand gesture with a vulgar meaning in Mediterranean countries, and a variety of meanings and uses in other cultures. It is formed by extending the index and little fingers while holding the middle and ring fingers down with the thumb.
Satan Trick:
"Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places" (Eph. 6:11-12).
According to Revelation 13, most people will be deceived into believing that Satan is Jesus. They will worship him. Satan will be in disguise. The ultimate trick!!! This is just an illusion. The Beast lies!!! Satan knows there is a sucker born every minute. Don't get sucked in!!!
Saturnalia:
Saturnalia (from the god Saturn) was the name the Romans gave to their holiday marking the Winter Solstice. Over the years, it expanded to a whole week, the 17th through 23rd of December. It also degenerated from mostly tomfoolery, marked chiefly by having masters and slaves switch places, to sometimes debauchery, so that among Christians the (lower case) word "saturnalia" came to mean "orgy".
It was traditional for Romans to exchange gifts during this holiday. These gifts were customarily made of silver, although nearly anything could be given as a gift for the occasion.
It has been postulated that Christians in the fourth century assigned December 25th as Christ's birthday (and thus Christmas) because pagans already observed this day as a holiday.
Sells Bibles:
"No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon" (Matt. 6:24).
Everything is about profit and the Christian Church does not seem to be exempt. Preachers on every Christian television channel are exploiting the word of God in a perverted way and manipulating people as to get their money. Everything is for sale, including the Word of God. You cannot put a price tag on God, but some people certainly try to.
God wants Christians to say, "Freely I have received, freely I give" (Matt. 10:8) and, therefore, to share the gospel without price.
When Bible vendors charge you for a Bible, they are in essence saying "salvation comes at a price". How much are you willing to pay? If you act now, you can be saved from your sins for the low, low price of just $19.99. You'll even get a free angel pendant with your purchase. If you can't afford to pay, then to hell with you. Literally.
Jesus already paid the price for your salvation on the cross. To receive this blessing all you have to do is accept Jesus and God into your heart. It's that simple.
Serpent DNA:
The Cosmic Serpent: DNA and the Origins of Knowledge is a 1995 non-fiction book by Jeremy Narby. Narby performed two years of field work in the Pichis Valley of the Peruvian Amazon researching the ecology of the Asháninka, an indigenous peoples in Peru.
The symbol of the Cosmic Serpent, the snake, is a central theme in throughout the literature.
Narby spent ten years researching DNA, the structure of life itself, and the intertwined snake symbology he found universally depicted in the world's shamanistic traditions.
During a drug induced trance, Narby has an encounter with two giant talking snakes. He later learns that this direct transaction with the twin snakes is a common experience among Peruvians, and that much of the knowledge of the chemistry of active herbal agents in the rainforests was purportedly gained through such trance experiences.
Narby says it would be impossible for indigenous peoples to have discovered all the medicinal properties of the hundreds of thousands of plants around them through trial and error, and that direct communication (through DNA knowledge - the 'Cosmic Serpent') actually seems more likely! Narby demonstrates that indigenous and ancient peoples have known, and even drawn, the double helix structure for millennia - though conventional science only uncovered it in 1953.
He believes that the twin snakes depicted in so many religions are actually the basis of all reality behind appearance and that under certain circumstances it may be possible to access the knowledge contained in the universe by direct communication with the source of life itself. From the snake in the Garden of Eden to the twin snakes of the cadacus and of Hinduism, snakes and dualism are all around us.
Serpents:
A serpent is the term used to translate a variety of words in the Hebrew bible, the most common being the generic word for "snake".
In Genesis, the Serpent is portrayed as a deceptive creature, who is an advesary of God. According to the Bible: "Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made" (Gen. 3:1). In the Garden of Eden the Serpent tempts Eve to eat the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge and denies that death will be a result. In the New Testament's Book of Revelation identified Genesis' Serpent as Satan.
Short Hair:
"If a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her; for her hair is given to her for a covering" (1 Cor. 11:15).
A woman should wear her hair long enough to be recognized as feminine. Wearing her hair long also shows her submission to a man. According to Paul, if a woman prays or prophesies while wearing her hair short like a man, she is dishonoring the man (1 Cor. 11:5). She is not showing a willingness to wear the symbol of submission to the man's authority. Further, for a woman to wear her hair short like a man is just as dishonorable as if she had her head shaved like a fallen woman! Therefore a woman should wear long hair.
Because Paul specifies that a woman should wear long hair, some wonder, "How long is long?" Some have gone so far as to believe that a woman should never cut her hair. However, Scripture does not specify uncut hair, but long hair. Others have confused shorn hair with cut hair. Shorn hair is hair that has been closely clipped in a mannish hairdo.
Paul is making the point that a woman should wear her hair long enough so that she looks feminine and honorable.
Skin Cancers:
Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States. The two most common types of skin cancer are basal cell and squamous cell carcinomas. Melanoma, the third most common skin cancer, is more dangerous, especially among young people. About 65%–90% of melanomas are caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light.
Slipknot:
Slipknots are used to make nooses. To make a noose, a loop formed in a cord or rope by means of a slipknot; it binds tighter as the cord or rope is pulled. The noose has come to be one of the most powerful visual symbols directed against African Americans. The noose is a symbol of white oppression and racism of blacks, and is covered under several copyrights granted to the NAACP and other black organizations.
Slipknot may also refer to the American heavy metal band from Des Moines, Iowa. Formed in 1995, the group was founded by percussionist Shawn Crahan and bassist Paul Gray, after several lineup changes in their early days the band consisted of nine members for the greater part of their tenure—Sid Wilson, Paul Gray, Joey Jordison, Chris Fehn, Jim Root, Craig Jones, Shawn Crahan, Mick Thomson, and Corey Taylor. However, the death of Paul Gray on May 24, 2010 left the band with only eight remaining members.
Slipknot has been the subject of many controversies throughout their career, both for their image and their music. The lyrical content of some of Slipknot's songs has been linked to several violent and criminal incidents. One such case from 2003 involved a pair of young killers who blamed the lyrics from the song "Disasterpiece" for their vicious crime. Another from 2006 involved the lyrics from the song "Surfacing" being found at the site of a grave robbing.

Sun Aligns:
According to Mayans on December 12, 2012, the sun will rise on the dark rift of the center of the Milky Way which is referred to as a black hole. Today modern astronomers know that the Milky Way contains an immense black hole. The Mayans claim the Earth will be in exact alignment with the sun and the center of the Milky Way galaxy, a galactic event which takes place once every 25,800 years. No one knows what effect this alignment will have on our planet, but the Mayans believed it would be terrible.
Sun Darkened:
John describes the darkness of the sun as "black as sackcloth of hair" (Revelation 6:12), comparing it to the black goat hair used to make sackcloth and tents in his day. This may depict a solar eclipse or possibly a massive dust storm caused by a volcanic explosion. The Ninth Plague covered Egypt with a "darkness which may even be felt," a "thick darkness" (Exodus 10:21-22), and perhaps God will repeat it on an even grander scale. Whatever the case, visibility will be severely limited, even during the daylight hours.
Sun Flips:
In 2001, the sun's magnetic field flipped. The Sun's magnetic north pole, which was in the northern hemisphere, now points south. The Sun's magnetic poles will remain as they are now, with the north magnetic pole pointing through the Sun's southern hemisphere, until the year 2012 when they will reverse again.
"This always happens around the time of solar maximum," says David Hathaway, a solar physicist at the Marshall Space Flight Center. "The magnetic poles exchange places at the peak of the sunspot cycle. In fact, it's a good indication that Solar Max is really here."
Tau Cross:
The Cross of Tau, named after the Greek letter it resembles, is suspected to have originated with the Egyptians. When a King was initiatied into the Egyptian mysteries a tau was placed against his lips. It has been a symbol to many cultures before Christianity and is strongly identified with the bull in the astrological sign of Taurus.
The Tau Cross in Christianity dates back since the latter's beginnings. Today, its most common use is in reference to Saint Francis of Assisi, who proclaimed to his fellow friars in his hometown of Assisi (Italy) that their monastic habit was the Tau Cross. The tau cross is often used as a variant of the Latin, or Christian cross.
The Tau cross was a symbol of the Roman God Mithras and the Greek Attis, and their forerunner Tammuz, the Sumerian solar God, the consort of the Goddess Ishtar.
Tammuz, like Christ, was associated with fishing and shepherding. The Tau cross takes the shape of the letter of his name, and is one of the oldest letters known. A solar god, the death and resurrection of Tammuz were celebrated every summer.
Tidal Waves:
A wave that moves up to 200 MPH and is up to 1,000 feet high.
Toxic Fume:
Poisonous gases or smoke given off by a substance.
Tree Noose: See Slipknot
Trilateral:
Trilateral is something having three sides or perspectives and may refer to:
Trilateral Commission
Trilateral Insignia, etc
Trinkets:
A small showy ornament or piece of jewelry.
Tsunamis:
A tsunami is a series of water waves that is caused by the displacement of a large volume of a body of water, such as an ocean. The original Japanese term literally translates as "harbor wave." Tsunamis are a frequent occurrence in Japan; approximately 195 events have been recorded. Due to the immense volumes of water and energy involved, tsunamis can devastate coastal regions.
Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and other underwater explosions (detonations of nuclear devices at sea), landslides and other mass movements, bolide impacts, and other disturbances above or below water all have the potential to generate a tsunami.
UFO Clouds:
Lenticular clouds are stationary lens-shaped clouds that form at high altitudes, normally aligned perpendicular to the wind direction. Lenticular clouds have been mistaken for UFOs (or "visual cover" for UFOs) because these clouds have a characteristic lens appearance and smooth saucer-like shape.
Yule Logs:
A Yule log is a large wooden log which is burned in the hearth as a part of traditional Yule or Christmas celebrations in several European cultures. It can be a part of the Winter Solstice festival or the Twelve Days of Christmas, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, or Twelfth Night.
