On New Years Day I watched a really interesting doc on the Book of Revelation, broadcasted on The History Channel. It went into the history of apocalyptic writing, and even compared lines in John of Patmos' book to writings in other apocalyptic writing during that time and before it.
It was fairly one sided, not even giving air time to the people that take the book literally, (this was countered however by an hour long "bible code" show) but it was really interesting how they broke it down. It gave me some great ammo to throw at the fundies I encounter.
Did anyone else see this?
