Squeak 17 #176 April 17, 2010 Quote Opposition is futile because there is no way to determine a winner or a loser. Judgment of the soul comes at death of the physical body. Opponents are just barking in cyberspace for the attention it brings. OH YES THERE IS, you have a claimed "End of Days" date, the day AFTER that date, I win and you loseBy then you and your ilk will come up with some "misinterpretation" of the given date and re-re-re-adjust it accordinglyYou are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS! How's yours doing? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RonD1120 58 #177 April 17, 2010 Quote, you have a claimed "End of Days" date, Sorry squeak, you are mistaken here. I have never claimed an "End of Days" date. I believe there is such a time but I have no clue when that will be. I just wait, watch and listen.Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit. They only last for an instant but it is a Holy Instant. Let your soul absorb them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My mother-in-law and I used to joke about the "annual end-of-the-world date announcement party". Every year, they would explain why the old date was wrong and why the new date was going to be accurate. It was always a motivator for the morally-slacking. An overused concept. "Oh! You better watch out, You better not cry, You better not pout, I'm telling you why: Mythical Judgment Person is coming to town!" It seems like religious adults can't achieve morally ideal behavior without the carrot/stick motivators. As a group, it makes them comparable to 6 yo kids who get the Santa Claus threat in the grocery store aisle. "Better not steal or murder, or (deity) won't give you (insert after-death paradise flavor)" I manage to not commit murder most of the year without any incentives.
