Pug According to the Oxford Dictionary: "Definition of millenarian "adjective "relating to or believing in Christian millenarianism. "denoting a religious or political group believing in a millennium marking an era of radical change or the beginning of a utopian period: millenarian Marxists "noun "a person who believes in millenarianism: mainstream theologians argue that millenarians misuse scriptural prophecies" http://oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/millenarian?q=millenarian Most of them turn out to be killers... Telcom “Steve Jobs, Thomas Edison, Benjiman Franklin, Galileo, King of Thailand, Dali Lama. (of the top of my empty head)” I agree that these people changed (or are trying to change) the world. None of them theorised about an apocalypse heralding a golden age. By comparison: Oliver Cromwell – war and the execution of King Charles, followed by a godly society ready for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. Maximillien Robespierre – revolution, terror and the execution of Louis XVI, followed by a society of Equality, Fraternity and Freedom Adolf Hitler – war and holocaust followed by Lebensraum and a Thousand Year Reich Karl Marx – revolution followed by the Classless Society Pol Pot – genocide followed by his vision of a simplified agrarian society All of these grand visions caused untold death and misery and eventually collapsed in ignominy. So what should I think of: Gold Buggery – global systemic financial collapse followed by a stable economy founded on a gold based currency.
