I guess I don't have to worry about cleaning out the garage then.

Too much LFD....

I played that a few times with my son, addictive weekend, but all that FPS gaming gives me a headache.

Same. I grieve my grandmother for a few months too but it now has become better. I'm sure she with or soon will be with God. It helped that God let you know she was going to be taken away months before she even got sick. In that it was time. From my impression she went up but who knows what went up is or where it leads to in the other world.

The only regret is I never bought her anything. But the thoughts that we're going to see each other in the future comforts me nonetheless. To me she isn't gone just went to a permanent vacation, a place where she's or would be much happier and I'll see her again soon enough. Immediately or end time as there's simply no difference to that at least to the dead.

So many stupid, stupid people.

Christians have been prophecising the end of the world since Jesus himself did it in Mark, and every single one has been dead wrong.

Does that fact stop anyone from trying? Nope.

I'd love to see these people's faces on May 22.

Anyway, I'd live life to the fullest if I knew the world was going to end.

It amazes me that so many peole can be duped into believing this. But then again, it has always amazed me that so many people are duped into smoking cigarettes.... so I guess there must be some common weaknesses in the human psyche that allows them to fall for things like this. Can't help but wonder what their thought process is, as they begin to fully accept the end is really coming...based on some very broad assumptions and a 3000 year old religious text... wow.

Well I for one don't think it will happen anytime soon. Even so, biblically speaking nobody knows the day or hour it will happen that's for sure. But the topic being what it is I'll add my two cents. One of the things it is said will happen in the time of the end is knowledge will increase. Not the knowledge that sends men to the moon. But rather as world events unfold we compare that with what already written and finally understand.

One of the things that was said to happen is that the Realm of Javan will come against Middle Easteren kings. Then Javan's horn will inexplicably be broken. Biblically a horn represents authority or a kingdom, Javan is those tribes that have populated the Gentile nations.

What I saw is the Realm of Javan came against kings of the middle east and now a shake up and if it goes the direction I think will. Javan's horn will be broken, meaning either by a major catastrophy or simply being weakened to the point of no longer able to maintain any influence in the region.

Like you said I could be amongst those who are wrong maybe not. I'm only a spectator not prophet.

Well,considering that "The End Times" was originally supposed to happen during the lifetimes of the original Apostles,the end of the worlders have no choice but to keep saying "It's going to happen soon".

I have an Aunt and Uncle who are both deacons in the Episcopalian (spelling?) Church. And they both think the end of the worlders are nuts.

It could be like the SH6/ DC2 death cult. Neal will be serving grape kool-aid at the next meet. Then... SH6- DC2 will be unveiled, only to find out it was wolfpack he was talking about. Then everybody runs over and drinks the kool-aid

That sounds about right for the Episcopal church - at least, it my exposure to it here in the states. Pragmatism is practically a sacrament.

As long as I get my little fraudster sorted out beforehand...bring it on.

RickC Sniper · 03-07-11, 03:24 PM

If a Christian believes the Bible is the Word of God and the bible predicts the Rapture and the end time, then I guess Christians have to believe it will happen.

However, predicting it's exact time to occur is likely more difficult than predicting the stock market.
