I have been following the ramblings of a certain carebear who thinks he is a prophet. If you are not up on this, I suggest you read
here first. To say the least, I have been a bit dubious of his claims. Why would Princess need to test me when she knows how devout I am? Why would she chose a carebear to serve as prophet? Why does Princess remain so silent on this issue?
I have done a little research on the net and I am beginning to be swayed. I came across an article that describes the traits of a true prophet versus a false prophet. The results alarmed me.
True Prophet1. Few in Number; trusts only in Princess
2. Generally disliked and not trusted
3. Speaks what Princess says – “Princess says…”
4. Gives warnings of Princess’ judgement of all
5. Demonstrates the power of Princess
6. Socially unacceptable, does not conform
7. Speaks a compelling message
8. Tells that we are subject to Princess’ judgement
9. Shares scripture to show the truth
False Prophet
1. Many of them; trusts the majority opinion
2. Generally liked and trusted by people
3. Speaks presumptuously of Princess – “I think…”
4. Speaks of peace and prosperity
5. Uses power of suggestion or illusion
6. Socially acceptable and conforms to expectations
7. Promotes self interest
8. Tells that Princess will not judge; do not fear Princess
9. Shares opinion to explain the “truth”
Let's go through these line by line.
1. There is only one proclaimed prophet even if it is a carebear
2. No one seems to trust billybearprophet
3. In his prophesies billybearprophet does claim to speak on behalf of Princess and not himself
4. Billybearprophet speaks of
doom if you do not follow him
5. Billybearprophet has offered
visual proof of Princess' miracles when she made him channel Lucy
6. Carebears are not socially acceptable
7. This one is a wash. While he does speak a compelling message it also seems to be self promoting
8. This self proclaimed prophet has spoken of the wraith of Princess should we not conform
9. Billybearprophet has produced
scripture to back up his words.
So with some trepidation I find that I will go into the desert with billybear. I will keep a close eye on him as I am still very leery of his intentions and am not fully convinced. Honestly, there is not much to lose. If I stay here and stroke and I am really not supposed to then I am doomed. If I go into the desert I can stroke even if the prophet is lying. Either way I get to stroke but one way I have nothing to fear but coyotes. Besides I am always up for some mescaline, peyote and whiskey.
Bring on the visions!

And so it was written, "Great woe shall be heaped upon the Prophet should even one hair upon Her pets heads be harmed or have split ends! The prophet shall spend an eternity caged and teased should this come to pass!"
No problems MsGrace, I've been watching a lot of the Discovery Channel and a little National Geographic um tonight. Did you know an armadillo can walk under water?
