Since there are several
religions, not everyone has the same take on
Eschatology or
philosophy. Many people are
agnostic or lean towards
atheism or have a full
irreligion perspective. Then there are those that strictly or loosely follow the
Scientific method. Thus for many it can be tough to keep an open mind to various perspectives & aspects of reality. Researching patterns & symbolism, coincidence & synchronicity, doesn't have to be limited to any particular POV. Anyone can be interested in such things & still hold to their other personal beliefs.
J
ohn Hogue might not fit comfortably into the minds of the very religious or the very scientific, but
his books &
other projects draw the interest of many. So who is the best prophesy researcher & interpreter on the planet? That depends upon who you ask or what you believe.
