End Times!!
« on: April 09, 2007, 09:52:39 pm »
ok....since last week I have heard on the TV AND radio that 'we are in the end times'

Have had four (4!!) people tell me "I told my mom that Jesus was comin!!"

have had several people make allusions without coming straight out with it...so I was just wondering if this is just a LOCAL thang or what??

these people don't believe in global warming but they think some being is gonna come and pass judgement on them...today!

I couldn't figure out what to select. I haven't heard anything of this nature.

I think I heard a couple of whackos talk about it on CNN this week.

It seems like every time a bird farts someone thinks the world will end. I don't pay any attention to that crap anymore. I mean, even if God did come, what could we do about it?  ???

Agreed David, seems there's always some fire and brimstone nut job preaching about it and using everything from global warming to chocolate flavored crunch berries as the reason du jour.  I've got a feeling the signs. portends and heralds will be a good deal more immediate and downright shocking in their attention getting quality, when and if the Almighty ever decides to make an appearance. ;)

this is another thing....I would think that there would be NO question if in fact the Heavens opened up and the trumpet sounded....(in fact I bet they'd break into the soaps for that one!)

Well, I was raised Roman Catholic, and we were taught to ignore everything unless it comes up and bites us on the ass (or the Church said so). So we always ignored these "the sky is falling and the world is coming to an end" type scenarios. "Unless it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it's not a duck".

You get the idea.  ;)

     I dont watch television, and certainly not to the christian channels when I do...so I dont hear that stuff.... Sometimes I think those are one of two things, the nuts with all their shells shocked.  Or the televangelists trying to get you so scared, that you will send money, and they can then scare more folks into sending more money.................JMO.    sorry if I offend, just my personal opinion.                                                                janice

Um, I don't live in the sticks, and I've not heard anyone mention the end times this week.  But then again, I rarely talk to anyone about religion that isn't a more archaeological type discussion.

Why?  Has anything happened recently that hasn't happened before in the last 10,000 years or so?
