Re: no vagueness
One clear fact about Biblical prophesies is that for over 5000 years, every time one has been proven wrong, divine re-interpretation has shown that it referred to something else entirely anyway.

Doubt it will be 8.0 but reading John (or Don Marquis, I can't remember which) says that between July 1 and September 5th, 2004 there will be a 6.4+ earthquake centered near Palm Springs.

Re: ...and then what?
Whenever you find a religion saying that it is the only way to GOD, you find a small people trying to limit GOD to something small enough for them to control.

Re: Our Reality and Gods Reality
What does the evidence show Phat?
And you simply continue to misrepresent my position and demonstrate that you cannot actually even comprehend the very words of mine that you quote.
Phat, every single prediction and prophesy of end times or almost anything else has been shown to be false by reality.
Basics Phat.
To show that I am wrong you must provide reasoning and evidence; two things you always seem to forget to bring.

Re: Our Reality and Gods Reality
Evidence of ANY Christian Prophecy of some End Times has ever been anything other than a con job.
AbE:
Again Phat, the topic is "When Will The End-Times Be And How Will We Know?" and so far no one has every provided anything more than vague nonsensical corny doomsday fantasies. No even anything that rises to the level of good fiction.

Re: Our Reality and Gods Reality
So look at what you posted.
No where in any of that is any evidence or reasoning beyond restating what you believe.
Phat writes:
The fact that you dismiss the conclusions of the apologists so readily shows me that you frame the Bible according to how you see it, though you will claim that you are simply reporting what it says and have no agenda, (unlike the apologists).
And this is a great example of just what I posted above.
What I do is actually POST what is actually written in the Bible Stories. That's not a claim, it really is a fact. Others can simply check what I post by actually reading what is written in the Bible. I make no claims regarding any agenda; but instead try to stick to the verifiable facts. (unlike the Apologist I will gladly admit)
Why do you accept what the Apologists market when it contradicts what is actually written in the Bible other than your preference for the product the Apologists try to market?

We actually believe that we have met God. We don't need rigorous scientific evidence to verify that its God and not a bad burrito.
LOL
How do you question and challenge and test those beliefs?
Yes, I don't doubt that you believe you actually met God, but yet you never explain how you determine that it is god and not a bad burrito or even more likely, Satan.
And once again, the actual topic is " When Will The End-Times Be And How Will We Know?"
Do you ever plan on addressing the topic?
When do you plan on actually answering the quote from me you even included right above your tap dance?

No Phat, I do not have the right to shoot someone in my temple. I would behave much better than the Jesus character in the story.
And once again, you simply post nonsense and word salad instead of addressing either the topic or what others post.
The question remains as always; "Yes, I don't doubt that you believe you actually met God, but yet you never explain how you determine that it is god and not a bad burrito or even more likely, Satan."

You really have never read the Bible have you Phat? It seems that even the parts you quote are ones you either never read or never understood.
Did any of the people running the stalls that Jesus destroyed at the Temple break in?

Re: Billy Graham Represents Apologetics
We are responsible.
Topic Phat.
When Will The End-Times Be And How Will We Know?
Billy Graham was simply another apologist although perhaps slightly more intelligent and honest that little Graham.
His question of course totally misses the point as expected.
"The real question, however, is this: Are you ready for Christ’s return? You can be, by turning to Him and putting your faith and trust in Him. Don’t take His warnings lightly, but commit your life without delay to Jesus Christ."
Utterly Meaningless Word Salad! Another great cop out from the back of the Medicine Wagon.
Jesus said to do. Not commit. Not even follow. Do!
Shall I re-post what the Jesus character in the Bible said?
In your quote, Billy Graham does not give an easy answer, rather he tap dances to distract you from the fact that he offers NO answer.
Sadly, it works for the CCoI!
