Check out [1] the Flock of the Zio-evangelical Sphincter lickers
of pastor John Hagee with is prediction of/about the coming
4 Blood moons. First he predicted that that in 2014 there
will be the beginning of the "end times" ... however Hagee has
now extended that to 2030 or so... possibly because one of
the Iranian rag-head Mullah said that "Israel will cease to
exist by 2030"....
