The book of revelation is not taken seriously by sane people. It has always been a favourite for mad and semi-mad people. It was almost discarded during the gospel selection process by father Eusebius and his crew.

As written in the book itself, it was probably written by a man under the influence of hallucinegenic drugs.
It can be given hundreds of different interpretations, depending on how sane or insane one is.

AHHHH BUT YOU ERR MY DEAR FRIEND. YOU ERR. the book of revelation cannot be given different interpretations. it is event specific and era specific and is chronologically accurate. the specificity is impeccable. what you call insane ? is viewed that way by intelligence-challenged people.

You wanna know how I can read the whole of Revelation and still "cling on to folly"? The same way I had a Saw marathon (from 1 to 6) on friday and still went to a dreamless sleep.

quite interesting monsieur SimonAndal. and while you were catching the marathon did you also catch the 90 point humiliation of our basketball team ?

Oh yeah revelation says it all....

It tells how world powers,kingdoms,governments had arisen in the past and fallen,and how the present world powers now existing would be destroyed....

If only persons could know the end result of human governments they'll be advocating no other government but Gods kingdom......

Revelations is really a book of revelations....

atilla the hun and genghis khan were not ruling world empires. WORLD EMPIRES not LOCAL CHAMPIONS grin

the book of john predicted america, which will be the last gentile empire on earth and is an offshoot of the roman empire.

britain is part of the roman empire. the roman empire morphed into the 10 horns of the book of revelation which are the 10 mother european countries. so every country in europe including britain is part of the old roman empire. so yes britain remains an empire. the roman empire still controls the world. only they now call themselves europe and america

you need to pick up a book sometimes. there is a reason why every european country and america operates the roman numeral and have figurines that are all greco-roman. there is a reason why every european country and americas spiritual base is the roman catholic church. the old roman empire simply morphed into european countries and then america. there is a reason why you all bow down to the image of a roman named cesare borgia as jesus whose image was painted by 2 roman painters michelangelo and da vinci. there is a reason why america was 'discovered' by the roman christopher columbus. WHETHER YOU CHOOSE TO BELIEVE IT OR NOT, YOU ARE LIVING IN A WHITE MANS ( KNOWN AS THE OLD ROMAN EMPIRE BUT BIBLICALLY CALLED EDOMITES ) WORLD. all that will change soon however. we have been in the white mans world since the european rennaisance of the 1500s. the end of the dark and middle ages.

Daniel did prophesy 1st about d roman empires fall.......

John just did a review of daniels prophecy,and also in-corporated the fall of the roman empire and d next world powers after rome.......

And john did give us a fore gleam of how it'll all happen.....

Thank u......

the point here is all white people whether they call themselves british, french, scandinavian, roman, greek, south african, dutch etc etc. they are all the same people. they are all edomites. the first great edomite empire started under alexander the great. this was the begining of their power. they called themselves the greek empire back then. then they became the romans. then they became europe. then they broke off to form america.

perhaps you can enlighten us at to the author of the book of revelation.it is believed to be john,but the problem is which of the many johns named in the bible?is it john the beloved apostle?or john that wrote the book of john?or the john that wrote the epistles of john?lets start with that before moving to other things

Bullcrap! Genghis Khan's empire was far larger and contained far more people than the roman empire, twice as big to be exact. The Romans aren't even in the top three, both Alexander the Great's and the Muslim caliphate were much bigger and neither of them were predicted by revelations.

In fact, it's a real stretch to claim that even the Roman empire was predicted my revelations. It doesn't really say much aside from "a big empire will arise, will misbehave and then fall." For all we know, it could have been talking about Erastus Akingbola's business empire.

Christians have had to twist world history almost to breaking point to make it align with the rantings of the mushroom chewing stoner who wrote revelations. But when you look closely, it all falls apart.

perhaps you dont really have a grasp of who GENGHIS KHAN was.but for the advise of his vizier,we wouldnt have china and many other nations.as far as empires go,his empire ranks among the largest ever possible just eclipsed by alexander.
besides napoleaon's empire extended almost all over modern day europe.thats a pretty large empire that shouldnt have escaped prophecies.besides it was an important empire because it marked the political demise of the papacy

the author is God. john was simply a hand puppet. kinda like a ventriloquist. the words in the bible are spirit ( john 6 vs 63 ).

be that as it may, his empire was confined to a non relevant part of the world at that point in time. the roman empire controlled the whole world. every empire in the world were tributaries to the roman empire. the roman empire owned hong kong and china and japan ( under the british empire ) and the whole of north and south america. and the whole of africa they owned. the roman empire owned and still own the whole world.

see the mistake you people are making. you are going by the recent names they have given themselves. so you dont grasp the magnitude of the strength of the roman empire. the roman empire has controlled this whole world for over 500 years and is still controlling the world. in the bible it says in the book of daniel that the roman empire is the most diverse because when those other empires were around, america had not been discovered. now the roman empire controls all the land mass in the whole world.
Re: How Can Atheists Read The Book Of Revelation And Still Cling On To Folly ? by buzugee(m): 11:10pm On Aug 05, 2012
heck the roman empire just put bin ladin, sadam and ghaddafi to death and toppled bin gbagbo in africa and arrested and threw charles taylor in jail and arrested and threw a few of our corrupt politicians in their jails. and started wars with iraq and libya and anyone they damn well please.
