Great article!! We sure could use more like that one. Say, I'm working on an article on the film ''[[Titanic (1997 film)|Titanic]]''. Right now I'm just working on the synopsis, but we'll need a cast, poster and of course a Christian analysis. I daresay your work is fairly complete with the need for a few touch-ups here and there. Say, what was that Lucas guy experiencing anyway? A hallucination?

:I guess you could call it that. And, seeing that I've already "spoiled" things quite enough (assuming you can even get hold of a copy), I might as well tell you. Astronaut Lucas did something that probably would be considered "breaking training." He walked into a room having only one door, and it slammed shut on him. Of course what happened to him next wiped out his memory of just how he got into that room--which was not just a room but a complete, self-contained holographic simulator. And as it happened, the antediluvian commandant had just used that simulator himself, to find out what was happening on earth at the time.
:As to where the simulator got its input, the antediluvian government had set up total surveillance of everything. A fat lot of good that did them when their society went to pieces shortly before the Flood. But the surveillance system had enough of a record to re-create an experience on earth for any member of the base crew who wanted a quick getaway.
:Here's the key: the commandant rushed out of the simulator and forgot to reset it. Lucas walked in, thousands of years later, and was treated to the experience that the machine created for the commandant. And ''then'' the machine went ''on'' to show Lucas the final forty-eight-odd hours aboard the moon base, when everyone realized that their world was flooding itself out. They panicked. Some of them killed each other. Some of them sacrificed one of their own. The rest of them fled--to nowhere, of course. The base commandant committed suicide, and his body was the body that Lucas and Shepherd would later discover before they barely made it to the base in time to save themselves.
:Tellingly, the machine even predicted that Noah and his sons would heed the word of God and leave him behind, had he actually been there.
:But while Lucas might believe that he traveled back in time, that is ''not'' in accord with the law of time as God set it up.--[[User:TerryH|TerryH]]<sup>[[User talk:TerryH|Talk]]</sup> 23:11, 15 April 2007 (EDT)
