Only God could make this happen like your information. He is precise in every detail.

No similarities by any means. Jesus Christ is the son of God; Buddha and Krishna have been mere instructors. Their tombs are nevertheless occupied by means of their bones or regardless of keeps to be are nevertheless there. Jesus Christ, although as quickly as ineffective, in each and every experience of the be conscious, and buried in a tomb is now alive and is on the main suitable hand of God, His father. Papaw

To say there is a link is questionably, it has a bit of the conspiracy theory about it, also I think that most people will agree that Oswald was not the assassin. However, it is an interesting set of coincidences, and I really enjoyed reading this. But it reminds me of the theory that everyone in the world is linked through 6 people... you can always find connections like this, but it doesn't make it any less fascinating.

There is a difference between a comparison of a mirror in the times created by history repeating itself because of aberrations in the hearts of men, and the actual intervention of Divine action into the Nature and Salvation of Mankind. You can not compare Abraham who is a human Father or Patriarch of the Old Covenant with Christ who is God and the Maker of the New Covenant, except dimly. And this comparison is only made that there was in the Old Covenant no satisfaction for sin available that would gain men salvation, until Jesus+ satisfied the requirements of the Law by pouring out HIs Own Blood on the cross. Thus when Melchizadek of Old offered the Bread and the Wine the sacramental value was only of ordinary prayer. But when Jesus+ offered up His Body and Blood in the Mass according to the Priestly Order of Melchizadek the transformation according to the Covenant has the power to grant eternal life to souls. This is according to Catholic Teaching. But according to the teachings of both Church and men, a failure to recognize the lessons of history is a proscription to repeat the same failures. Thus sin has reiteration built into it and only Christ in His Church and the love of Christ in the sacraments can free mankind from our slavery to error. That is why divisions in the Church and failures of men to be faithful have harmed the world. But as according to His Promise, the Gates of Hell shall not prevail against the Rock, the Church founded in Peter and continuing in an unbroken lineage to the present Pope Benedict XVI.

As far as the similarities between Lincoln and Kennedy, they are astounding, but as far as Abraham and Jesus, the difference is, Jesus was 100% God, and Man, and took our sins to the cross.

A spiritual meaning? Probably not. None of those things had to do with them serving the Lord or with God in general. Cool coincidences though.

First Abraham and Jesus were very different but both were not evil like the events you have come across. It should come as no surprise that there is spiritual wickedness in high places.

No! Is the simple answer... anyway Lee Harvey Oswald didn’t kill Kennedy, our own CIA did at the behest of our very own Federal Reserve Bank members. VP Lyndon Johnson went along with it as did his very own cousin, Gov. John Connelly, who was then the governor of Texas at the time. While Connelly was riding in the same car with Kennedy and his wife and the "bullets" started flying from all different directions Connelly got hit on the arm near his elbow. When that happened Connelly screamed out the words; "My God, they’re going to kill us all" and with that statement let it be known that he was aware of what was going to happen there that day and thought he was going to be killed to keep his mouth shut in the future. While riding thru the Dealey Plaza, shots rang out at 12:30PM. Both JFK and Gov. Connelly (riding in the same car) were hit. The 2 men were rushed to nearby Parkland Memorial Hospital. Gov. Connelly recovered from his severe wounds, but JFK was pronounced dead at 1PM.
At around 1:10PM, Dallas cop JD Tippit was murdered several miles away. A man similar in appearance to the Tippit killer was arrested in a nearby theatre, and he was identified as Lee Harvey Oswald. After a long police interrogation, Oswald was also charged with JFK's death.
2 days later (Sunday, Nov. 24), while Oswald was being transferred to the county jail for 'safe keeping', Jack Ruby (Dallas strip club owner and a convicted Mafia pimp) stepped out of the crowd of reporters and shot Oswald. After Ruby's arrest, it took over half an hour before Oswald got to Parkland Hospital; he bled to death during this time.
THE WARREN COMISSION was a farce and everyone who had a brain to think with, knew it.
On Monday, Nov. 25, new President LBJ set up the special Warren Commission to study the assassination, and all Texas investigations were halted. Its 7 members were: 1) Supreme Court Chief Justice Earl Warren, 2) former CIA Director Allen Dulles (who had been fired by JFK), 3) Chase-Manhattan President John J. McCloy, 4) Sen. Richard Russell, 5) Sen. John Sherman Cooper, 6) Rep. Hale Boggs (later was killed in a plane crash), and Rep. Gerald Ford (future president). Since the Warren Commission had no investigators of its own, the group was forced to rely on Hoover to provide necessary data and witnesses.
Since killing a president was not a Federal offense in 1963, JFK's autopsy should have been performed in Texas. But FBI officials illegally moved the body to Bethesda Navy Hospital (Maryland), where 3 military doctors (Humes, Finck and Boswell) with little real-life experience performed an erroneous autopsy.
Based on these doctors' findings and other hastily-gathered evidence, Hoover published a short paper announcing his conclusions: Oswald, a crazed pro-Castro communist, murdered JFK because he hated Kennedy for attacking Cuba at the Bay of Pigs (April 61). Ruby then murdered Oswald out of patriotism.
Both men acted alone: there was no conspiracy. After spending 10 months and several million dollars, the Warren Commission came to the exact same conclusions, publishing an impressive-looking 26-volume report. Almost everyone-the gov't, the media and the public - praised the Commission's efforts and agreed with its findings. Some of the people who actually read the report were stunned by its failings: many witnesses and pieces of evidence that contradicted the Commission's views were clearly left out. Claiming reasons of "national security", the Warren Commission locked up over 10,000 files and pieces of evidence (including JFK's now-missing brain) for 75 years - until 2038.
Ruby, who refused to talk, was convicted of murder and sentenced to the death penalty. But he won a new trial on appeal, and threatened to "spill his guts", hinting that "top gov't officials" were behind JFK's death. Ruby died in jail of cancer shortly before his re-trial (Jan 67).
I could go on and on about how phony all the police work was but what good would it do? No one will do anything to set things right, because too many good people who have tried have been killed for their good intentions. Look at what happened to the whole Kennedy family, JFK’s brother Bobby, was murdered and Teddy was blackmailed so he could never run for president for the rest of his life at Chapaquitic… all by the very same people… the heads of the Federal Reserve Bank, the very same people President Kennedy alluded to as being the few wealthy and powerful people who want to take over these United States and eventually the entire world starting a “New World Order” such as we see happening today. Don’t take my word for this… google up the JFK assassination and surf through the stuff to find his “State of the Nation” speech when he said all of these things himself. He wanted to do away with the Federal Reserve Bank and dismantle the CIA and return us to the gold standard which would have in effect place the power of this country back in the hands of “We the People” and he was murdered for his efforts. [ end of story.]

It could be very coincidental but if it is not, it is of no benefit to you or them. The important thing is that both of them are dead and you are alive. But what will you do with your life?
