Plus I'm like 90% sure it says verbatim in The Book "none will know the hour" or something like that. Heretics

There was a guy in the 80s who said that he didn't need to know the day or the hour, he was content to just know the week the world would end.

Sunn Classics made the film adaptation of The Late Great Planet Earth and their Mormon/Christian perspective can't be brought up enough with regards to the many, many paranormal films they released including flicks on Noah's Ark, reincarnation, and bible/ancient astronaut crossovers. Here's a good article from Robert Skvarla:

https://diaboliquemagazine.com/mormons-aliens-and-dan-haggerty-the-mostly-true-story-of-sunn-classic-pictures/

quote:

Sellier was one of the first proponents of market research and audience testing at all stages of a film’s production. He’d put together scripts piecemeal from individual scenes after testing them in front of crowds at private screenings. The ideas for the films also frequently came from the public. The process confounded auteurs and studio enthusiasts alike. When Sunn Classic reached out to Orson Welles to contract him for one of their wilderness films, he was aghast at the machine-like nature of their creative process. Welles associate Gary Graver recalled Welles’s frustration in the 2006 biography What Ever Happened To Orson Welles? A Portrait of an Independent Career, “Orson asked them how they knew what the audience wanted. They said, ‘We go to this place’—which is now the Harmony Gold Theater on Sunset—’and we wire people’s wrists when they’re watching animal footage. We check the seismograph, and if they get excited, we make a picture about that.’ Orson just shook his head in disbelief.” (Welles would go on to narrate the 1981 Nostradamus pseudo-documentary The Man Who Saw Tomorrow for Sunn Classic alum Robert Guenette.)

I think that book was really popular in the 70s, my parents have always had a copy and they aren't and haven't ever been evangelicals and I definitely have seen it on relative and family friend bookshelves. Never did get around to actually reading it despite picking it up several times as a kid.

Yeah same, although my parents are and always have been evangelicals.

I always confused the names of the author with the actor who played Barney Miller. Never made sense, since Barney Miller was such a chill dude (for a cop)


Hey, we should make Barney Miller the new Columbo

I… kind of have, yes. This was a detox dream I had years ago, so take it with a grain of salt, but…

in this dream, I approached a river. Wading about a yard from the bank was a woman in an iridescent, shimmering white dress, dipping the lip of an amphora into the water to fill it. I asked her what she was doing. She turned to me and smiled before intoning:

“It doesn’t matter where the river came from or where it’s going. It’s the water you stand in that gets you wet.”

Pretty prosaic insight, but cool nonetheless. Thanks, White Dress River Lady.

I had a vision (hallucination?) of going into my dimly lit room at my parent's home and seeing a young woman in white (she was all white) kneeling next to the front of my sea chest. When I called out to her she stood and twirled towards me, old time skirt billowing, and faded out.

That was before I ever took LSD I will point out

That's funnier.

My partner used to be very woo and then they took a photo that had an orb in it that absolutely blew their mind and then everyone around pointed out it was their thumb right by the camera flash and not a ghost or an orb. I feel like thanks to that, their skepticism for all things UFO and woo is dialed way up so whenever I share stuff from here or elsewhere they're Scully to my Mulder.
