Ever thought about the similarities between the New Jerusalem that is suppose to "descend from heaven" and is a CUBE, to the Borg from Star Trek?
So in case any of you are not familiar with the end of the The Book of Revelation, the final place that "believers" are suppose to reside is the New Jerusalem, which is described as a cube that descends from heaven.
This place is suppose to be a Utopia, where there there is "no pain or sorrow." Everyone is "perfected" and you could even say "assimilated" into this new place where everything uniform and equal.
Here is the main part of the scriptures that outline this new "kingdom."
Revelation 21
2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband.
3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Look! God's dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God.
4 He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death' or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away."
5 He who was seated on the throne said, "I am making everything new!" Then he said, "Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true."
6 He said to me: "It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring of the water of life.
7 Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children.
8 But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars--they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death."

16 The city was laid out like a square, as long as it was wide. He measured the city with the rod and found it to be 12,000 stadia in length, and as wide and high as it is long.
17 The angel measured the wall using human measurement, and it was 144 cubits thick.

That is 1500 x 1500 x 1500 miles.
Here are a few example of pictures that Christians themselves have drawn of The New Jerusalem. The first link is the site it came from. The second is just the picture.

Verse 8 is basically a threat to submit to this regime. Oh and btw if you believe that The Bible is the ultimate authority, that would mean that if you are a coward or a liar you will burn in a fiery lake forever. Fun Stuff.
In case you aren't familiar with Star Trek, well take a real hard look at your life. haha just kidding.
The Borg is a collective consciousness that has a hive like mind. There is not a concept of individuality or freedom. There is not significance in one's self, just the hive mind. Serving the queen. They go around and assimilate beings into their community.
The Borg commands that "Your culture shall adapt to service ours. Resistance is futile...... Your defensive capabilities are unable to withstand us. Your life, as it has been, is over. From this time forward, you will service us. You must comply."
As long as you submit, you will forever be taken care of and dwell in the cube forever.
Here is a picture of the Borg ship.

As you might have heard, in the short future there will be a false savior that will trick people to submit in order to be saved from crazy shit happening on earth.
Well obviously they will first make a "fake savior" that many "believers" will not fall for and that they will call the Anti-Christ.
But then they will send one that most will actually fall for.
And when a cube descends from the sky, many many "Christians" will assume this is God's new kingdom.
Well if you want to become mindless members of an alien hivelike race... go ahead :)
Anyway I am not claiming to be sure that is how things will go down... I just find the whole thing kind of funny.
