Waiting for Armageddon - Russian Style

How does one go about starting a cult, this guy has been pretty successful at it:

Mr Kuznetsov, who calls himself Fr Pyotr, declared himself a prophet a number of years ago and has attracted followers in Russia and Belarus.

He is thought to have ordered his followers into the cave but did not join them.

Surely that would be the point when someone would question his leadership?

I bet he has mad, staring eyes.

And a big beard. A great big black bushy beard.

And dirty fingernails.

Sort of a cross between Rasputin and Charles Manson.

Nothing like AtW at all, no Sir, not one bit.

Apocalypse - what Apocalypse ?

From the Times online

An escalating war of words across the world’s last Cold War, nuclear-armed border spiraled dramatically yesterday when North Korea threatened to wreak total destruction on its neighbour to the south.

“Our military will not sit idle until warmongers launch a pre-emptive strike,” the official news agency in Pyongyang reported a senior military commander as saing, “everything will be in ashes, not just a sea of fire, if our advanced pre-emptive strike once begins.”

The threat was among the most direct and bellicose statements from Pyongyang since North Korea test-fired an atomic device in late 2006. International efforts since then to persuade the country’s enigmatic dictator, Kim Jong il, to abandon his weapons programme have repeatedly stalled.

The threat also marked a fourth day of rapidly deteriorating relations on the Korean peninsula, which remains technically still at war despite more than 50 years of often uncomfortable armistice.
