Jason Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 Are These the End Times?Short answer: No. Long answer: None of the nations involved (Israel, Lebanon, the PLO, Iran, Syria) has the nuclear capacity to destroy the earth. So, no, we've nothing to worry about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr T Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 Hey Jason, You said, "nuclear capacity." Why do you see that as the conclusion to the final days? Why would it have to come from one of those countries? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 That's what this quack is saying, that the middle eastern nations will engage in some armageddon battle that will end the world. People have believed that Jesus was going to return for 2000 years. Jesus himself told his own followers that some of them would not taste death before his return. That didn't happen. Jesus was wrong. But people still follow every word like it's the truth or something. Go figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 Hello Jason, What is your explination of the mount of transfiguration in the New Test.?Clearly there was some translating going on long before we knew about Joe Smith and the Book of Mormon.Jesus experienced "enlightenment". How did that give him the ability to live forever? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
