Thus, they believe, starting Sept. 13, the beginning of the Jewish High Holy Days, there will be another, even larger financial crisis, based on the United States' "wickedness." That would launch the "days of tribulation" — as described in the Bible.

Good thing that Sept 13th is a Sunday and the US markets will be closed.

Tent City! Tent City! Tent City!

We had a guy bear his testimony in Sunday that talked about the preppers. The guy works at the local cannery and talked about how they lee running out of stuff because so many people are buying food storage because they believe something will happen in September. He kind of made light of it, which was funny. Then he closed his testimony with "well, if we go (meaning, die) then at least we'll all go together as a ward family"

There was a guy in our HPG meeting that mentioned that the local cannery up this way was out of stuff. I made the comment as a joke that I was just in the local gun store and they had plenty of ammo left but we should maybe get it while we could. The guy agreed with me.

What did they say?

Just how when they saw the Facebook threads posted on a "BYU football" site the Rowe people knew for sure there was a mole and so started to purge their Facebook group and when they couldn't find the mole just shut it down.

Don't people realize that when they are paranoid about a "mole" they've already gone around the bend?

Sounds like something a mole would say.

Now they're being called out.

This won't end well.

1. Person receives vivid dream / vision
2. Person interprets vision within realm of existing belief framework, and says that it augments existing doctrine.
3. Person receives local notoriety
4. Person is seen as a visionary, seer, or prophet, all in support of existing doctrine
5. Person has growing following, attracts the attention of existing belief authorities, who react with caution.
6. Person receives additional visions, each one stepping a little further outside existing framework
7. Given the growing chasm between belief systems, followers pick person over existing church
8. Person makes statements unacceptable to existing church
9. Church threatens excommunication
10. Person leaves, taking group of followers with her.

There's the door, Julie! Use a cushion for your backside.


Julie Rowe reminds me of this person, who was once LDS.

I wonder who the mole really was, though. Actually, that guy who popped up in rando defense of this on page 1 might have been the one who ratted us out to begin with.

I don't get this. I mean, they like being made fun of - no one does. I'm sure there was some small part of Noah who was thinking "I can't wait for all of you SOB's to drown".

But in this instance, if they truly feel like they are a warning voice and want people to be ready, why do they care? What is a mole going to do? Tell everyone that there is a group of people prepping? Are there secret meetings? Is there a limited supply of "prep" that someone can get and they don't want others to get theirs? Would they really rather that some people who are actually interested in their message and ideas NOT hear about it because it cuts off some of the people who are laughing?

Seriously - what do they lose by having a mole?

I was waiting for the "11. September 13th comes and goes. Nothing happens. Everyone moves to a compound in Gold Hill, Utah."

Excellent point. If the objective is truly to warn the world, why the secrecy? These people are shameless.
