I am a little skeptical of this prophesy, the reason being, why didn't GAS record the prophesy in his journal? If you had such a dream wouldn't you record it in writing while it was fresh in your mind. I would. Since we know Obama is not of "Greek extraction" as it states, maybe the word extraction was not used by GAS, but a "Greek". Let's say Bro. Horne got it a little wrong by using the word extraction thinking GAS meant a ethinic/racial meaning instead of a slur used for " Uncle Toms/traitors in the black community.
I googled the term " black Greek"' and found several You-Tube videos that talk about college educated blacks who join fraternities/sororities and pledge to the Greek ones. Found that those who desire to be wealthy are said to have joined the
Boule Society ( a secret society) which the blacks say is the Blacks version of skull and bones. This Boule Society is of course
critized by the black community because they only desire wealth for themselves without helping the poor.
Here are two titles of the videos recommended to get started. The 1st one is ok, but the 2nd one has a f-bomb in it.
2nd one is a song that is titled. " A Greek is a Fraud" which makes a good point that a "Greek" is basically a "fraud".
You-Tube:
Why do black people want to pledge and call themselves Greeks?

According to my previous boss who is African American, the Boule Society is real.

Isn't Bro. Horne dead? Some people have mentioned that they want an update from him but I heard that he had died a while ago.

Re: for all of u GAS lovers out there ;-)
There are varying levels of dementia. How bad is it? Im sure people have tried to contact him many times over the years but could he be reached for comment? Does he have family members that perhaps have had discussions with him on the GAS Prophecy?davedan wrote:Bro.

Don't you think it might be best for this thing to die off? I think it would be very bad to try to get others to give their 'remembrances' and muddy the waters even further. They can't save it, the facts of the original version are there and cannot be undone, because any changes made to it only weakens it's credibility even more. We already have one version of this story that is an outright falsehood, designed to prop up fundamentalism.stephenj wrote:There are varying levels of dementia. How bad is it?

I think you missed the point. I agree that its false. That is exactly why I would like to get a comment.

World War III could begin in 2019 and go into 2025, for all that I know of.

That would be awesome. I always wondered what it was like to go through the World Wars. I think it is now our time in the name of Equality.Zion2080 wrote:World War III could begin in 2019 and go into 2025, for all that I know of.

Although blacks may have referred to themselves as Greek and Obama is black...it doesn't mean that he is the president mentioned in the GAS prophecy. There could be another "greek" president in the future...

And what does it matter if there is another greek president when David Horne said that 'greek' was a mistake? Why are people trying to massage the prophecy to make it fit, regarding the 'greek' thing when that's not even relevant?LDS Physician wrote:Although blacks may have referred to themselves as Greek and Obama is black...it doesn't mean that he is the president mentioned in the GAS prophecy.

David Horne changed that years ago. He said Pres. Smith said a president of 'non european ancestry', therefore, if people think the prophecy is valid and real, then they will forget all about the earlier greek reference since it's been disavowed.
Facts are facts people. If you are going to put any stock in this prophecy, then you need to have confidence in David Horne, who is THE only source. If he says that 'greek' was wrong, then it's wrong--you all don't get to hold out for a 'greek' president, because the SOURCE has said it was wrong. Horne said it would be a person of 'non european ancestry' and that up to that time, everyone who served as president would be of 'european ancestry'.
