Again I don't mind that this thread is going on but I honestly have to say, If this thread doesn't belong in the religion forum then I seriously don't know what does go there.

LOL. I don't know ANY christians IRL who believe this nonsense. Is it like a particular sect or something? Rabid fans of the "Left Behind" series? People who ONLY know the "Left Behind" series and nothing else? I can't figure it out.

Thanks for the laugh.

It's self-indulgence that has been going on for centuries. They all seem to think the end will come at any time (or even go as far as to predict dates) yet it never happens. Every generation has had these navel-gazers.

If you are so sure of that, why don't you rejoice, for you will be with your God soon.


Why then do you (or especially Roysoldboy) still concern yourself with petty human politics? Are you afraid that you will be LEFT BEHIND because you didn't believe enough?
Why don't you leave earthly matters to us atheists who will stay down here anyway?

I really would like an answer from you to this question (and if ROB would chip in, too, all the better).

Flying Spaghetti Monster > your god

And if you are right and I do go to hell, it looks like there'll be some entertaining people there. All the Jewish comedians. Most liberals. Sounds like a better place than heaven!

Like they say "it only feels like an eternity"

And I was raised under the religious cloud. Around age 16 I realized it was all hoarding sheep and fashion shows with propaganda.
