This guy's website appears to be about how science can't be trusted:
https://universalmodel.com/
Apparently the myth and lore of bronze aged humans, as written in the Old Testament, should trump modern science.
Oh man, I almost blew a gasket looking through that website a few years back! We talked about it briefly in this thread:
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=444
The guy claims to know the real science, and that most scientists have it all mixed up. But it's the opposite of science. He holds to his conclusion regardless of the evidence, rather than following where the evidence leads.

On the news they said these folks believe the world is ending in July. Anybody have further details?
I would be entirely skeptical except that the the pestilence has begun and the constitution is hanging by a thread.

Interesting eh?
She can foresee the "second coming" and her role as a "god" in that, but she couldn't foresee her own imprisonment, and for some strange reason her "god powers" can't get her out of prison.

This seems to be the typical fallback for religious leaders of sects/groups who are waiting for the prophesied return on such-and-such a date when it doesn't happen.
There are 2 Gods. One who created us. The other you created. The God you made up is just like you-thrives on flattery-makes you live in fear.
Believe in the God who created us. And the God you created should be abolished.
