Acts 2:20

They have come on a protracted journey that ends with that conclusion. The denial of a literal thousand year reign before which Jesus has returned is a conclusion not a fundamental doctrine in their prophetic system. This denial is the effect of a process that began in another place besides Revelation 20. The major battles in the mind of this person were probably waged far from Revelation 20... in fact far from the Revelation at all.

Doesn't time fly! Just when I got sick of modernism the postmodernists turned up with their deconstructed semiotics and psychodynamic sciences of sexuality. Between them they laid an egg which hatched, after some turbulence passing itself off as music but which was really vibroacoustic therapy admisintered by a madman, into that thing on Mr Thurmond's finger which inhabits the brain of every self identifying millennial.

A study of the emergence of the modern concept of “mental illness” in Europe, History of Madness is formed from both Foucault’s extensive archival work and his intense anger at what he saw as the moral hypocrisy of modern psychiatry. Standard histories saw the nineteenth-century medical treatment of madness as an enlightened liberation of the mad from the ignorance and brutality of preceding ages. But, according to Foucault, the new idea that the mad were merely sick and in need of medical treatment was not at all a clear improvement on earlier conceptions. https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/foucault/#HistMadnMedi

And now you say there's postmillennials? Having established that insane is the new rational, or at least that insane persons are rational about their insanity, it's easy to see how identity crises could arise in the Z-alpha brigade. Less clear though is whether the processes and major battles that began in other places far away (which your post referred to, but I don't know if you read that far) were taking place on the moon?
