This particular documentary goes through each of the seven seals of the Apocalypse (aka Book of Revelation) and tries to decipher what they might really mean by applying them to today's frequent natural disasters and advanced technology.For example, when discussing the Sixth Seal, the Bible describes a great earthquake occurring, causing the sun (from earth's point of view) to turn black like a sackcloth made of goat hair, and the moon to turn blood red, and the stars in the sky to fall to earth. Prior to the 21st century, Apocalypse researchers presumed that a falling asteroid from space would crash on earth. According to this new documentary, it may be more likely that a mighty, volcanic eruption is being described here. St. John of Patmos--who saw the visions described in the Book of the Apocalypse--lived in the same era of when Mt. Vesuvius unexpectedly and instantaneously destroyed the city of Pompeii, Italy, suffocating its victims "in the exact moment" of their lives.Another example is when discussing the Seventh Seal: the Bible describes a variety of horrible things to come, particularly of "locusts" that had faces resembling human faces who had breastplates of iron with wings that sounded like the thundering of horses going into battle. These "locusts" had the power to torment people for five months. In the 20th century, some Apocalypse researchers concluded that St. John of Patmos was probably trying to describe helicopters in the best way he could. In this new documentary, there are some Apocalypse researchers who now conclude that Artificial Intelligence is probably a more accurate description, especially when these machines are made with the faces of humans, higher intelligence, and used as killing machines for military warfare.
