Yeah. Dirk is real good at finding mistakes. I keep him busy!

>>instead, Connor's descent into evil will be a gradual thing from the beginning of the trip onward until he's cured in the water

There can be advantages to a gradual descent into evil. If your reader is analytical then they can get caught up with the agony of watching it occur. 'Oh no! Connor really is changing!' Or they're lulled to sleep and get a shock at the end. 'Connor's the AC?!?!'

Good comments, Marilyn. You and I have tangled with issues before, and I think discussing these topics is crucial. I watch CNN and Fox just to make sure I'm not totally slanted one way. Of course, it's strange at times - things are great, things are terrible, and repeat. I plan on not becoming bipolar by watching those two outlets. :-)

I'm confused about many things. I don't understand why other nations can impose tariffs on us, but we cannot impose many, if any, tariffs on them. Our factories are shutting down. Check the rust belt.

And I've worked in the automotive industry, utilizing computer models. You've got to make sure those models are really good BEFORE you start cutting steel for tooling. How good are the climate models? I've read conflicting things.

I don't understand why we have to pay so much to protect nations, and they didn't have to pay their fair share. Fortunately, our current leader has secured NATO's commitment to increase efforts. 

We were told that nobody is above the law. But I guess illegal immigrants are above the law. And why are farmers hiring illegals? Isn't that illegal? Let's increase the number of people we let in legally.

PBS gets 15% of its funding from the federal government and 8% from universities (whatever that means). Can't they adjust and survive?

We should fund fusion and nuclear. Take some of those billions of dollars that are fraud, waste, and unknown-where-it's-at and fund these things more.

And just think, it's only been 6 months! Has it been perfect? NO! The 51st state and Greenland stuff was bad. The Gulf of America? Really? I don't know how great it was to go after all the tariffs at once, but it seems to be working. Our economy increased by 3%!!!!

If I understand what you're saying, then be careful. We're having a decent conversation and don't need to throw stuff like that around. I could say things, too but would rather not.

Let's get technical! Good stuff. I've never heard of the Milankovitch cycles. Very good.

I try to be a pragmatist. I don't want to spit in the water and give it to my children. We need to be good stewards with what's been given to us.

I think we only hit 93 degrees, 34 C.

How was Canada Dirk?

How about
"The Dark Coming of the Holy Emissary"
"The Coming of the Unholy Emissary"

To me it sounds like you're talking about the Pope. But you're not. He's not given that title that I could find. However, I wonder if many people would assume the story is about the Pope. That aside, it sounds good to me.

How about "The Chronicles of the Holy Emissary"!   :-)

"The Advent Chronicles" is pretty good. Why not?
"The Glorious Advent Chronicles" - yuck.
"Chronicles of the Lord's End Times"
"Connor's Chronicles" An alliteration!

Some thoughts:
I like the Staff of God because you can mix it with the cross and because of Psalm 23.

I like the Hand of God because it gives you a wide range of uses. The Hand of God welcomes you home to the real church. But if God is upset then it becomes the Fist of God and He can Punch and Slap you around. That poor guy got a Holy Hit.

The Right Hand of God, that you mentioned, is good, too.

Is the Hands of God any better? Or the Holy Hands of God? Or the Holy Hand of God?

Can he become the Hands and Staff of God or is that too clumsy?

Put a new tattoo, 333, on the hand which stands for the trinity.

An upright staff with crossbar is interesting or perhaps the opposite. The cross would almost seem to carry the staff.

I will challenge your 666 branding.

“It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name. This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. That number is 666” (Revelation 13:16-18).

Great news, Randall. Keep on writing!
