Hey GV, I just posted an article which will be on TBP tomorrow about Gnosticism and its influences on both "2001: A Space Odyssey" and Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon."

I would be honored to have your opinion on it.

SEMPER FIDELIS!

This was the most riveting and most powerful article "To Date" from you. The letter from Zrínyi to his Son was so passionate! If ever there was a mobilizing Prose to quickly humble the Christian Heart, it most definitely must be this article! Many thanks for your "Gift", and may Jesus keep you Prodigious in the future! You are a blessing!

Odličan članak Scipio!

Veliki pozdrav iz Zagreba! :)

More on Nikola Zrinski:

"He first became famous in 1542 by saving Pest from certain ruin with the crew of his Croats. For this reason, the inhabitants of Pest praised him and said that God himself had sent him. Because of his heroism and exceptional popularity among the people in the same year, he was elected a Croatian Ban. As a reward, he received possession of Croatian Međimurje with the fortified city of Čakovec from the King.

Nikola is celebrated as a national hero in Croatia and Hungary, and for his honorable death he is especially appreciated in Japan.

It is less known that the English royal family among the ancestors has Nikola Šubić Zrinski. His daughter, whose mother was Katarina Frankopan, married a Hungarian nobleman Ferenz Turz who has a blood relationship with the British royal family through the German nobility from Transylvania."

The powerful story, and your exquisite recounting of it, had me at the edge of my chair. I confess my eyes were burning.. Now, I'm left with the burning question.. Where are the Christian men today? They've been decimated by the American culture. After all, when a modest siege broked it's advance..

the vast majority collapsed without a fight, and closed the doors of their churches at the saying... not a lion mind you, but... a virus is in the streets, a virus is in the streets. May God give the rest of us the heart of a fearless martyr as the Battle for Christiandom continues to heat up. Thank you for an amazing story.
