@BowsacNoodle @King_Noticer @SuperSnekFriend @TheWanax @rher @idea_enjoyer Surviving to the end doesn't exactly discount God wanting to have distinct borders and boundaries for the nations. So people attempting to centralize a whole bunch of different nations in an empire like fashion is usually not the best idea before the second coming. Even then it doesn't say we will all merge into one ethnos, its just that all ethnos will stand before Christ and acknowledge he is King.

A shadow of that idea is seen at Pentecost, when words are understood in a person's own language, not that everyone can speak the same one. God wants distinction.
