Tropes are clichés. And of course clichés are boring ...or funny, depending on how they're used.

We become desensitized through exposure; moreso when inculcated from youth.

{reminds me of the tv program Decoded :cyclops: }
Tropes of course have come out of legend, myth, and fable. Or lions, tigers, and bears - if you prefer.
{That's lion, leopard, and bear for the Biblically literate. re: Daniel}
I believe there's a very definite pattern to the tropes we're inundated with every day.
| 1 | sun-god | bigfoot | werewolves | satyrs | aliens | pop idols |
| 2 | moon-god | banshee | lunatics | sirens | transhumans | pseudo science |
| 3 | mars-god | golem(*) | zombies | skeletons | supersoldiers | abortion |
| 4 | mercury-god | ghost | witches | fairies | masons | drugs |
| 5 | jupiter-god | gnome | vampires | elves | new agers | gays |
| 6 | venus-god | troll | mummies | titans | NWO | elites |
| 7 | saturn-god | demon | devils | minotaurs | illuminati | corrupt authorities |
(* compare frankenstein)
Most folks think nothing of using the names of gods or idols in the weekdays or months.
We've been indoctrinated that they're harmless at worst and even fun.
| 1 | sunday | cupid’s bow | the beast |
| 2 | monday | bunny eggs | false prophet |
| 3 | tuesday | fireworks | death |
| 4 | wednesday | trick or treat | mystery babylon |
| 5 | thursday | stuffed turkey | the destroyer |
| 6 | friday | ornamented tree | rulers and merchants |
| 7 | saturday | father time | the dragon |
We're not told that these are the masks of the rebel angels and their camouflage.
But let's peek behind the curtain:
since
not telling, toleration, or remaining silent would be false witness. - Quote :
- Revelation 17
8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
Some call what's coming the alien invasion while others say it's just full disclosure. But we were warned that whatever the world imagined they would do. Their fantasies are becoming reality. And not just in immersive virtual games. We've seen such before at Babel.
- Quote :
Genesis 11
6 And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.
The rebel angels will try to lead humanity to believe they are like gods. ...If you just join their club, and take their mark, and take it for a test drive.
But, we know Christ is coming again with power and great glory.
- Quote :
Matthew 24
24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets,
and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that,
if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
25 Behold, I have told you before.
26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you,
Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth:
behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east,
and shineth even unto the west;
so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
So if you're worried about EMPs, tsunamis, or other catastrophes... the 666 system to buy and sell -- and fool the masses -- just won't work if it's unplugged.
No worries.
Jesus has it all worked out. Even when that means wandering around the wilderness for awhile.
(also see: Isa. 28)
