Oh, I dare! He's preaching his opinion. No one knows "the truth" when it comes to God, religion, the afterlife (if there is one), etc. I don't know "the truth", nor do those who claim they do. I stand by my opinion that people like this man use fear to try and control people.

No it CANNOT and WILL NOT happen. It is not POSSIBLE. You will meet the Lord Jesus Christ but it will be on his terms when you DIE and your soul ascends to be with him (assuming you are not going to Hell). He is not going to come back here and snatch you out of your seat at church and take you into the clouds to meet him. That is the figment of somebody's imagination.

But why do they matter if they are but an insignificant human aspect in this world of flesh that will be vacated soon for an eternity of bliss at your god's feet (as you claim)?

Isn't it a religious maxime that the more you suffer on in your life on earth, the more you will be rewarded in eternity?
If this eternal bliss is coming so soon that there are potent signs about, and we all should be getting ready, what is a little more suffering to you? You will be amply rewarded.

Madam, you contradict yourself in these sentences: on one side you are condemning the president for accomodating foreign dignitaries, on the other you condemn him for not doing so.

Burden of proof doesn't lie with me. Proof is to be offered as verifiable/falsifiable empirical data. Belief doesn't equal proof or truth.

Try me!

I really would love to hear about these signs, maybe I could catch one myself.

Thank you for taking the time to respond to my post, I really appreciate that.

But I can't claim to be happy, as I'm still quite in the dark concerning the end times/signs thereof, or your motivation to lastingly influence this place which you will be leaving shortly.

I'm ready too, as I'm dying to meet this feller. Would it be possible that you turn it up to 90 for me?
