I notice you didnt write anything under "Religious Denomination."
Do you mind if I ask why?
Because I don't have any.
Is that a problem?
No, no. I just don't like blanks.

Stanislav Petrov
Minuteman Missile National Historic Site
Quick Facts
SIGNIFICANCE: Stanislav Petrov was a lieutenant colonel of the Soviet Air Defense Forces who became known as "the man who saved the world from nuclear war" for his role in a 1983 Soviet nuclear false alarm incident.
PLACE OF BIRTH: Vladivostok, Russia
DATE OF BIRTH: September 7, 1939
PLACE OF DEATH: Fryazino, Russia
DATE OF DEATH: May 19, 2017
On 26 September 1983, just three weeks after the Soviet military had shot down Korean Air Lines Flight 007, Lieutenant Colonel Petrov was the duty officer at the command center for the Oko nuclear early-warning system when the system reported that five missiles had been launched from the United States. Petrov judged the reports to be a false alarm,and his decision is credited with having prevented an erroneous retaliatory nuclear attack on the United States and its NATO allies that could have resulted in large-scale nuclear war.
The result of Petrov’s decision for humanity was that life as we know it went on unabated. The result of Petrov’s decision on his military career was quite different. His decision had brought to light problems in the Soviet early warning system and embarrassed his superiors. He was denied promotions, reassigned and took early retirement. The story was not even known outside the secretive world of the Soviet military until the late 1990s.
In May of 2007, while in the United States for the filming of a documentary, Mr. Petrov spent two days at Minuteman Missile National Historic Site, remarking that “he would never have imagined being able to visit one of the enemy’s securest sites.”

(from internet transcript)
He said if I can stop a sign,
the chain will be broken.
That's what he told you?
Yes, and God would grant the world
a second chance.
Did he tell you which sign to stop?
No, that's what Im trying to figure out.
No, no. Thats impossible.
I don't think the sign can't be stopped.
He wouldn't have told me
if there weren't a way.
Thats why I have to know what the other signs are.
You said you knew them.
God has no secrets.
The signs are contained in The Bible are called the seven seals.
The first four have already begun.
The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
And their signs are almost over.
- The fifth seal is the death of the last martyr.
- A death could be stopped.
But whose? Where?
- What about the sixth?
- The sun will turn to darkness...
...and the earth will quake
and the stars shall fall from the sky.
"And when the Lamb opened
the seventh seal...
"...there was silence in heaven."

Quotes
Alex Forrest: [to Dan] Well, what am I supposed to do? You won't answer my calls, you change your number. I mean, I'm not gonna be ignored, Dan!
The Seventh Sign (1988)
After all your travels, Father Lucci...
-...you`ve reached these conclusions?
I have, Your Eminence.
You have no doubt, no doubt whatsoever, regarding the signs?
No doubt at all. They were not signs.
Not to try your patience, Father, but once again:
The snow in the Negev.
Didn`t the lsraeli Army report that?
I was there.
I saw a freak, an aberration of convective showers.
Frigid air from the Balkans was swept into a cut off low.
It created a storm of such intensity, it sucked the freezing rain from the sky.
It turned everything in its path to ice. A rare occurrence.
It happens once in [] years. But a sign from God?
Everything you saw...
...was either scientifically explainable or a hoax?
Yes, Your Eminence. My brothers, all these things I saw were of the natural world. There have been no miracles. These were not signs of the Apocalypse.
I will tell His Holiness. He will be quite relieved. He has tickets next week to Faust.

[ Opening lines of the television series episode ]
Captain's log, stardate 45376.3. We are approaching the planet Bilana Three, where a new method of propulsion known as the Soliton Wave is being developed. The Enterprise has been asked to participate in one of the first tests of this new technology.
[Engineering]
LAFORGE: Data! Data, isn't this exciting? We are going to witness a moment in history.
DATA: Every nanosecond in this continuum is a moment in history, once it has elapsed.
LAFORGE: No, no, no, no. I mean, we're going to see something that people will talk about for years. I mean, think about it. No more bulky warp engines or nacelles. A ship just generates a Soliton wave and then rides it through space like a surfboard. This is going to be like being there to watch Chuck Yeager break the sound barrier, or Zephram Cochrane engage the first warp drive.
DATA: It should be interesting.
WORF: Very exciting.
LAFORGE: I'm talking to the wrong crowd.

Lieutenant Worf, personal log, stardate 45376.8. Alexander has acted shamefully, and as his father I must now deal with him. But I find that I would gladly fight ten armed Baldur warriors rather than face one small child.
[Worf's quarters]
WORF: A Klingon's honour is more important to him than his life. A Klingon would gladly face the most horrible punishment rather than bring shame or disgrace to his family name. His word is his bond. Without it, he is nothing. Do you understand?
(a tiny nod)
WORF: Why did you lie to me?
ALEXANDER: I don't know.
WORF: Did you fear the punishment you would receive?
ALEXANDER: I don't know.
WORF: You don't know why you lied, and yet you did. You don't know why you stole, and yet you did! Alexander, come here. When I was a child, younger than you, I lost my parents, my family, my people. Everything I had was taken from me except my sense of honour. It was the one thing I had which was truly Klingon and which no one could take away.

LYNDON B. JOHNSON
36th President of the United States: 1963 - 1969
Letter to the Parents of Five Sons Currently on Active Duty in the Marine Corps.
August 25, 1966
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Hoffman:
I learned only recently that yours is the only family with five sons currently on active duty in any of the military services, an experience unprecedented in the United States Marine Corps.
I am deeply impressed by this record. As you may know, each day I receive reports which indicate the bravery of our servicemen and which make me realize even more the magnitude of our debt to them.
This certainly applies to your fine sons who individually and collectively have demonstrated the highest degree of loyalty and dedication.
But just as I am proud of them, I also want to commend you for imparting to them a deep sense of patriotism and a full understanding of the responsibilities of citizenship.
As long as we have families such as the Hoffmans, I have not the slightest doubt that the liberty this nation has enjoyed for almost two hundred years will continue to be a birthright for future generations of Americans.
I wish you would express to each of your sons my appreciation, as well as that of the entire country, for the contributions they are making to the cause of free men everywhere.
Mrs. Johnson joins me in extending best wishes to all of the members of your courageous and devoted family.
Sincerely,
LYNDON B. JOHNSON
[Mr. and Mrs. Henry J. Hoffman, 92 Bingham Ave., Rumson, N.J.]

WORF: I apologise for being late, Captain. I was detained in school. I was enrolling my son in class.
PICARD: I see. Well, Mister Worf, as you're aware, several new security officers will be transferring to the Enterprise next week and I would like to discuss.
KYLE: Kyle to Lieutenant Worf.
WORF: Worf here.
KYLE: I'm sorry to bother you again, Lieutenant, but I forgot to mention that we need to arrange for a series of placement examinations for Alexander. If you could tell me when
WORF: This is not a good time. I will contact you shortly, Miss Kyle. Sorry, Captain.
PICARD: I would like to discuss with you the specific areas of ship's security that I would like
CRUSHER: Sickbay to Worf.
WORF: Yes, Doctor?
CRUSHER: I need to schedule a physical examination for Alexander. I also need his complete medical records from Earth and the medical records of his
WORF: I would rather discuss this at a later time.
CRUSHER: There's no rush. Crusher out.
PICARD: Mister Worf. You are not the first officer on this ship to have a new family member. Take care of your son. The security matters can wait.
WORF: Thank you, Captain.
[Observation lounge]
(an alien humanoid is giving a presentation)
JA'DAR: Twenty three field coils, working in concert, will generate the soliton wave from this point on the planet surface. We will have our test ship towed to a position approximately two million kilometres from Bilana Three. If our theories are correct, the wave will envelop the ship and push it into warp.
PICARD: Warp without warp drive.
RIKER: They're going to put you out of a job, Geordi.
LAFORGE: I hope so, Commander.
