Yeah, a lot of relegious events took place in Iraq, not all that suprising, but the last bit down at the bottom, the passage I think is very interesting.

You know, that passage gets me to thinking about something I heard about on tv awhile back, of how bibles have hints or signs of what's going to happen or has. They had these computer analyzers in a science lab analyzing the bible. Whenever they would punch in a few words like 9/11 or WTC, something in the bible would come up about it. Even when the space shuttle Columbia exploded, they searched for it and words were positioned to show the tilt of the shuttle and something on the right, where the tear was.

Strange things.

Prophecy: A feline of great power will pounce upon religious thread about Iraq, and lo the lands of King Ziroc will be cleansed of religious discourse.

But in the meantime, thanks for the info. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]
