#Cave of the Apocalypse

A Photo Essay: Following the Path of Apostle Paul - Day 6

Skala on the island of Patmos, Greece. We hated to leave Samos. We enjoyed it so much. Nevertheless, we were up early again to catch the ferry to our next adventure, the island of Patmos. The island hopping via ferry began in earnest. I took a few photos of Pythagereio as the ferry sped away. We stopped at a few small island villages to pick up and drop off passengers. The island ferries have…

The Cave of the Apocalypse is located approximately halfway up the mountain on the Aegean island of Patmos, along the road between the villages of Chóra and Skala.

This grotto marks the spot where the exiled St. John of Patmos received his visions that he recorded in the Book of Revelation during a time of persecution under the Roman rule of Domitian in the late 1st century.

In John's visions, notice Rome wasn't even acknowledged or addressed by Jesus in his letters to the seven churches of Asia (modern day Turkey) which formed the basis for early Christianity because Rome has always been the great Harlot masquerading as the "one true church" of Jesus Christ. Rome has always persecuted and murdered true Christians. Many Biblical scholars and Pastors have drawn parallels between Revelation 17 and the persecutions of Bible Believing Christians by Rome identifying Roman Catholicism as "MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH" drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus.

on a scale from Nat Rentalcar Finch eating god in a fervent rage to Tris Atdao Greer embracing the monstrous with unrivaled kindness how well do you straddle the line between psychosis and apocalyptic divinity and deal with being a vessel through which terrifying energies are channelled

Here are my favourite characters

[fluffypotatey]

every time i re-listen to epic the musical, i can’t help but think of an odyssey story during a zombie apocalypse

[nerds-yearbook]

Civilization had been thrown into havoc with the outbreak of an atomic war in 1964. By 1974, one town had been surviving using the wisdom of “The Old Man in the Cave” in matters of what to eat and what to grow and other matters of survival. The peace of the town was disrupted by the arrival of soldiers claiming they were trying to unite the survivors and rebuild society. The lead soldier came into conflict with Mr. Goldsmith who was the only one who had been talking with the old man in the cave. To create discord, the lead soldier, named French, convinces the town’s people to eat canned food that the old man in the cave said was dangerous. To further distance the people from Mr. Goldsmith, French learned and revealed to the people that the Old Man in the Cave was actually a computer. However, the soldiers and the people of the town all died of food poisoning leaving only Mr. Goldsmith. ("The Old Man in the Cave", The Twilight Zone, TV)

Hey I have a post-apocalyptic science fantasy homebrew setting I’m working on called Skeleton City. Inspirations for it include Mad Max, Bioshock, and Studio Ghibli films. It contains copious amounts of bioluminescent fungi and blunt commentary on class disparity.

If you’re interested, check out what (little) I have written up so far on World Anvil:

ohhh this is fascinating actually,, i mean. we do already have the apocalypse au. which isn’t exactly the same thing, but they did find each other after the world ended

for a while now I've been trying to get into either designing concepts around apocalypse stories that aren't viewed or told from a white perspective, but also getting into reading and conceptualizing an apocalypse that really never stopped for a group of people, that of which, when looking at stories like fallout, for some...it's happening a second time.

and a lot of popular media really doesn't cover character experiences or environmental design based up on that the apocalypse for these characters never stopped or is happening in a quick devastating way a second time.

EXTENSIVE LIST OF DECENT TMA EPISODES

across the street. spooky story about what if you saw your neighbor getting changeling'd. the witness being a semi-stalker so she can't tell Anyone and only knows the victim well enough to know he's gone is a nice twist

do not open. not at all spooky story about a guy who gets given a weird coffin marked "dont open" that keeps trying to hypnotize him to open it and making weird sounds but he just fucking. freezes the key in a block of ice/wears noiseproof headphones and manages not to open it until it gets taken away by mystery delivery drivers. he just gets out of it completely scot free with some cash

a father's love. spooky story about what if your dad was a serial killer. accurate to have the serial killer dad be a cop. i'm so glad this was a standalone story and did not get some stupid lore expansion that tried to rehabilitate the Serial Killer Cop Dad

vampire killer. not at all spooky story about a homeless guy whos a fucking sick awesome vampire hunter and theyre like gross mosquito hypnosis vampires. the sequel children of the night is almost scary but then he kills the vampire for the first time and she explodes like a mosquito. the lore expansion where he saves the serial killer's daughter from her job at the demon church and they become roadtrip besties killing monsters overseas rules actually

anatomy class. perhaps the funniest horror story i have ever read. what if you were trying to teach an entry level anatomy class to a bunch of kids in the same white shirt and blue jeans with different cultural placeholder names but they were actually like. meat creatures who were taking the class to learn how to be shaped like people. theres a scene where the teacher is explaining how hearts beat and all of them hold up the animal heart theyre dissecting and they start beating in different rhythms and theyre like "which one is right?" and at the end of the semester they give him an apple filled with human teeth shaped like a smile and a nice note thanking him for teaching them good :). absolutely killer 4-koma comedy horror manga idea

binary. not at all scary. starts with the protagonist telling you shes a Real hacker and the horror stories about the dark web are STUPID. proceeds to be the dumbest fucking story youve ever read about an evil video of a guy eating a computer to put his brain in it and becoming a tortured chatbot.

book of the dead. spooky story about what if there was a book which as soon as you read it wrote an extremely brutal death for you to happen very soon, and every time you try to avoid your fate your death changes to be closer and more painful. i should probably not have listened to this as a kid with untreated OCD.

body builder. not at all scary story about a guy who goes to a gym but they let you get silly with it. they let you get four legs and no head and stitch a smiley face into your chest.

that's it!

one of my favorite things about tma was how seasons 1-4 were all like "what if something supernatural and scary happened in your otherwise mundane life, making you realize the world isn't at all what it seemed like to you?" but season 5 is like "what if you were trapped in something akin to hell and the world is like nothing you know anymore, but the fear you expierience doesn't come from supernatural horrors but from the mundanity of your old life?"

people who hate maccready really start with the most ungenerous read of the character and then use video game mechanical limitations and lazy dev writing to justify it
