   We can recount the historical events, just like that one in the movie   
   "Apocalypto" by a famous director and actor.   
      
   It appears that the Aztec and Maya culture came under a major decline,   
   followed by consecutive bad harvests. They started to frantically behead   
   more people in ritual sacrifices to Kukulkan and wonder why the harvests   
   are not improving. They expected to please their deity to bless them by   
   sacrificing ritually more captive enemies.   
      
   This is not so far past. At the end of this, one small crew of a ship   
   defeated them all, despite the terrible punishments like making   
   greedy conquistadors drink molten gold - their gods did not help them   
   and they were overcome by this small number or handful of people.   
      
   States were here from always, and so were the religions.   
      
   The prediction is the following:   
      
   As religions, countries and nations diminish in significance before the   
   corporations that have profits greater than GDP of some countries and   
   nations -  and they also believe in supernatural help and astrologers   
   when making business decisions - it will eventually come to offering   
   human sacrifices on the altar of the corporations.   
      
   It will help them just as it helped Inka, Maya, and Aztec people, but   
   it will prolong their age until the next age comes: worship of pure evil   
   for evil sake, which is not even sexual lust, envy, pride, anger,   
   greed, gluttony or drunkenness, or laziness (sloth), the traditional   
   deadly sins.   
      
   Revelation 13   
   16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond,   
   to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 17 And that no   
   man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast,   
   or the number of his name. 18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath   
   understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man;   
   and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.   
      
   in the LORD   
   Amen
