Resolution Criteria: Will Jesus Christ return in 2025?
This market will resolve to “Yes” if, by December 31, 2025 at 11:59 PM PT, there is an event widely and credibly recognized as the literal Second Coming of Jesus Christ.
Such recognition must be confirmed by a consensus of credible global news outlets and at least one major world government or international authority. The event must involve a public, global acknowledgment that the individual is in fact Jesus Christ and that his return fulfills the prophetic criteria associated with the Second Coming as traditionally understood in Christian eschatology.
If no such confirmation exists by the stated time, the market will resolve to “No”.

So, this is only for those acknowledging a first coming, then?
What if only a minority of Christians recognize the second coming, but a majority of non-Christians recognize it as the first coming?

I think first coming and second coming is just a literal thing. We can add either first coming or second coming in the criteria.
Whats most important is: Such recognition must be confirmed by a consensus of credible global news outlets and at least one major world government or international authority.

Hmmm, I don’t think that’s it.
It’s based on UMA’s Optimistic Oracle which essentially consists of a vote by UMA token holders.

Definitely a No for the next 6 months, then. Can you imagine what would be required for those conditions to be met?

Yes - but there is a possibility that one day Trump might just say, "JD Vance is the second coming of Christ" and Fox News along with Vatican News might just confirm it to be true. 😈
Trumps tweet will pass the criteria of: one major world government Fox News along with Vatican News confirmation will pass for: a consensus of credible global news outlets
Should we create this market?
p.s. BTW I love Trump and Fox news.

You can certainly create it. I'll be racing liquidity bot to those No shares, though.

If something like that happened, would it count as Jesus second coming back in Predyx?

I'm taking the No either way.

My understanding is the outcome depends on whether UMA token holders agree that Jesus actually returned?
