Look at it this way: the course of human history is a perception that has included Ragnarok since forever, and even the Apostles when approaching Jerusalem with Christ plainly exhibited "anywhere but here," and that they did not understand the nature of the kingdom. Dont be too sure about human perceptions is all I'm saying, ok, especially when Reading a Book that is smarter than you are and knows and anticipates how you will approach It.
You could at least entertain as a theory the possibility that Armageddon is in there bc you need Armageddon, or iow we reason via the Hegelian dialectic bc in our minds it doesn't even occur to us that it is possible to reason any other way.
Contemplate the irony of the most privileged ppl on the planet, in all of history, living in a like a virtual magic-world, face-time with someone on the other side of the planet free in two clicks, lol, all blithely expecting Ragnarok. Dint you guys read Henny Penny? Don't be deceived ok. Leave the world
