Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28417349 nowhere, that appears to be a catholic teaching. what causes the darkness? That's a good question. I've always wondered that myself. Since most things like this in the bible seem to have natural causes, one would think either an object in space or ash in our atmosphere. It's impossible the sun itself could simply stop producing light, and if it did then we wouldn't have much time to panic. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 3081066 United States 12/09/2012 06:03 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I've thought about this....if it was "earth-caused", there would still be a part of the planet facing the sun. I don't believe the sun itself can go dark without a subsequent catastrophic event that would destroy both the earth and the sun itself. The only thing I can figure is an object of some kind coming between the earth and sun. To block the sun for three days, and three only, it would have to approach the earth from the relative direction of the sun. I would imagine there would be at least some indication of an object prior to the 'eclipse'. |

Rev 16 " The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and his kingdom was plunged into darkness. " Next comes the sixth angel who dries up the Euphrates River, to prepare the path for the kings of the east... which is an analogy to how God's King from the East, Cyrus, conquered Babylon. This other topic reminded me of this: Thread: Do you really think 3 days will make a difference- 12-12-2012 . |

" Then the Lord said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the sky so that darkness will spread over Egypt—darkness that can be felt.” So Moses stretched out his hand toward the sky, and total darkness covered all Egypt for three days. No one could see anyone else or leave his place for three days. Yet all the Israelites had light in the places where they lived. Exodus 10 . |

Wouldn't that also make the moon appear red? Quoting: Can't Think Now Smoke causes the Moon to be Blood Red. I have thought about the Mother Ship theory but that would have to be HUGE to block out the sun. A planet if most likely. Or smoke it it going to be smoke it happens around 2028 i was told.
