:49:00
She was going to die anyway.
Eventually.
:49:05
l need to know whose side l'm on.
:49:09
l would think a person of faith
never has to ask that question.
:49:12
l'm asking now.
:49:15
You're a Jesuit scholar.
:49:18
And so close to your doctorate, too.
:49:21
Let's see
if it's all been worth the effort.
:49:24
What was the title
of your dissertation again?
:49:27
The Role of Warfare
in Modern Religion.
:49:30
Ah. A subject very dear to my heart.
:49:33
So... let's go straight to
a personal favorite.
:49:38
Armageddon.
:49:39
Doomsday, as you call it.
:49:42
- Stark wants to prevent it.
- Yes, but why?
:49:46
l'm asking myself the same question.
:49:49
Think.
What follows Armageddon?
:49:52
The restoration of the faithful
to God's side.
:49:54
So why would certain angels
not want to see that happen?
:49:59
Oh, come on, Allison.
:50:02
God gave you the gift of reason.
Use it.
:50:06
- Jealousy.
- Of whom?
:50:09
Jealousy of those humans
who survive Armageddon.
:50:14
Jealous that they'll be
the chosen ones,
:50:16
the ones to restore humanity,
the ones most loved by God.
:50:21
Loved even more
than the angels themselves.
:50:25
So Stark's not interested in saving
the lives of billions of people.
:50:29
- He just wants us all...
- Doing what you do best.
:50:32
Degrading yourselves
in the eyes of your Lord.
:50:36
- So that just leaves you, doesn't it?
- Mm.
:50:39
- What's your agenda?
- Oh, l think you know what l want.
:50:46
Of course.
You want Armageddon.
:50:50
You get to snatch up
whoever doesn't make the final cut.
:50:57
A billion corrupt new souls
dancing on my doorstep.
