The simple fact that you believe this as fact with little or no real evidence to the contrary shows an inherent bias against government, in particular the U.S. government. I'm not saying the U.S. government is perfect or even remotely close to what God's government is like, but it certainly does not employ organizations with the sole purpose of undermining itself and taking away the freedoms of its citizens. It sounds to me as though you buy into far too many conspiracy theories.

It sounds to me as though truthwalker enjoys being highly antagonistic. For one who claims to love the church and follow its precepts, you are awfully quick to force your opinion on others and to claim to have special knowledge of things that likely should be left to individual speculation. While there are some intriguing theories regarding the Nephilim, the pre-existence, etc, they are but that - theories, not proof. Our salvation on this earth at this time is not contingent on our full understanding of such things. We hardly have accurate records on the subject, so it is unwise to postulate too far out. And I agree with a previous poster that much of what is in the Bible is symbolism. Not all, but quite a bit. Who is to say what is or isn't? Certainly you are no authority on the matter. Lastly, if you want others to take you seriously, I wouldn't say things such as you love the church, but doubt its leadership. Or use tired and trite stereotypes to describe people from other countries. Not only is it offensive, but it shows that you do not have a good understanding or application of Christ-like principles.
