Default A little thing about the So-Called End Times (Yes, I like to rant about it)

Just to make you realize how utterly ridiculous the End Times crap is...

1. There will always be famine
2. There will always be natural disasters
3. There will always be diseases
4. There will always be war, or rumors of war.

To make you realize something sick and wrong with the End Times...

1. The Christians who believe in Armageddon are happy about the war in the Middle East. They want it to keep going. They want to fulfill their so-called prophecy. No diplomatic measures are needed; for the End Times are near! Doesn't matter how many people are killed, Civilians or otherwise! As long as they go to Heaven, it's good for them.

To show you how gullible people are

1. How many people thought it was the End Times in WW1, or WW2? Israel was in that war! Guess what? Nothing happened! Jesus didn't come!

2. What about that Great Plague, huh? What crime against God did we make? God promised no more floods, but what about plagues? Turns out, the plague was entirely natural. Plague is primarily a disease of rodents, particularly marmots (in which the most virulent strains of plague are primarily found), but also black rats, prairie dogs, chipmunks, squirrels and other similar large rodents.

One last point.

1. How many years has it been since people have thought the End Times were near?
Answer: 2000.
Christians have been waiting 2000 years for the End Times, or, at least, the ones who believe in it.

And what is even more disturbing, is that these 'Armagedon' Christians do not want to peacefully resolve any hostility, they prefer to see people die so that their 'prophecy' might be fulfilled. As soon as some disturbance occurs, they begin to salivate with genocidal glee, the world is coming to an end.

Default And when an innocent child dies because of famine...

Tis all because of God's loving plan!

Actually, assuming Christ died circa 35 CE, then you're looking at more like 1,970 years ago. People have been preaching the "end times" message for years. Many prophets have claimed that the date was revealed to them, or that certain events pointed towards the end of days. Christians are the ultimate "Boy who cried wolf"
