well, actually, Ive used bible verses to argue only 144k male virgins were going to make it - paul was very picky about it.

I wouldnt toss any lines about someone being homophobic just yet - but I would call paul misogynist.

chick.com argues its their spiritual forms that get the sky ride.

I think the antichrist in the bible lets loose with one helluva party, and then the parent comes home and ruins everything.

Part of what I don't get is the letting loose the antichrist for the seven year tribulation. Everyone not raptured is obviously a non-believer. What makes god think that after pouring down pestulance, those of us that already think he's cruel would change our minds??? If it happened, we might suddenly believe there's a god, but we still won't like him!

God is taking his time so that he won't screw it up again, at least until he gets bored with perfection.

Everyone not raptured are the ones who have had sex with their girlfriends and/or wives who are married or unmarried.

Belief has nothing to do with being in the rapture.

Jesus likes male jewish virgins.

I wander why?

thats why I hate the left behind series. the anti christ is a pr moron. any child could work with that situation.

when god comes down and starts blasting you with plagues to make you love him, you *dont* say he doesnt exist.

you say he *does* exist, look at how horrible he's acting, worship me instead - I at least treat my people well.

Give us some examples of this proof and continued activity.

Any evidence that we don't currently take for granted?
