I find it distinctly creepy as shit that prof is so gleefully looking forward to the apocalypse. What a swell guy.

That Day will come as a trap on all the world

Hey prof, I've got another question. Forgive me if I misrepresent you, I'm on my phone and reading back to find the correct quotes would take a lot of time.
The thing is: I think I remember you posting that punishment for unbelievers is okay because we have free will correct?
But you also said that god intervened on your behalf to get the band away, and that he did that by making employers turn the bandmembers down whenever they applied for a job.
So... Did these employers have free will at that point?
Hope you see this before you depart. But I understand saying goodbye to your loved ones is more important than posting here.
I'm also curious about how that would go, I mean saying goodbye. Are you having a party?

I wonder what professor will say on the Sept 26th. He wasn't holy enough? Or will he say nothing due to his illusions being trampled by reality? The anticipation is killing me.

That thing turned out exactly as he predicted.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
