Nelson of the Church of the Ultimate Revelation referred to San Francisco
as a battlefield between good and evil where the forces of Satan have
enmeshed themselves strongly, a modern Sodham that needs to be cleansed
by the soldiers and Angles of God so that it can again be entered by
peace loving Christians.

responded in the press against the Bishop's statements, saying that
it is quite possible the recent explosion at the Tabernacle in the city
was set by the church itself as a publicity stunt and that Arsonists
have NOT been able to find sign of anything beyond the igniting of
what may have been illegally stored explosives and fireworks and arms
on the premisis.
