Ah, John Darby and “The Late Great Planet Earth” (fuck you, Hal Lindsey, you crank).

I read the book by Lindsey - it was so wildly off in its predictions as to be little more than the ravings of a lunatic…..a would-be modern Nostradamus.

There was a spate of those kind of books in the ’70s. I didn’t read the Lindsey book, but I did read the Immanuel Velikovsky fiction, Worlds in Collision. Although I was still in high school, I knew it was total bullshit. Then, as a freshman, I met a girl who said she had helped Velikovsky prepare the manuscript, and she worshiped the guy. She said it was all true. I lost interest in her very quickly.
