Quote:If you're dating from social moment to social moment, a start in 2016 would imply an end in the late 2020s. You're mixing and matching terminology again.
No I am not. If there is something to the generation concept, it should be possible to discuss this with someone not initiated into S&H and so not use their nomenclature. The comparison here is between two important elections. That 1932 was an important election is obvious. If Trump is so successful as to be succeeded by another Republican, then that election will be obviously important, just like 1932, or 1980 (and unlike all the others in between). It is a way to date a cycle using commonly agreed upon facts.
Quote:That is not the formal start of the Awakening per S & H.
Both are important 4T and 2T events, that would be readily acknowledged as important by someone without knowledge of S&H. In contrast, the turning/social moment dates are mental constructs asserted by S&H. They have no validity outside their theory and so cannot be considered as facts or data.
