You forgot the pivot of the trinity AnnaG. Jews will be spared your renovations I guess.

Well, Jesus, if he existed and was as cool a guy as he is purported to be, isn't included. I don't know about the spooky guy, but the big daddy of the issue seems to be a really twisted and anti-social low-life.

The notion of the rapture is not mainstream Christianity. It is in the fringe. Gees, with over 1500 versions of Christianity in North America, you can't tell your sects without a programme!

The Beginning of the End.
Glimmerings of the theory appeared with the Boston Puritan minister Increase Mather (1639-1723), who wrote of the saved being "caught up in the air" 3-1/2 years before Christ judged the world. A Chilean Jesuit named Manuel Lacunza published a work in 1812 in which he theorized that Our Lord would take up the faithful who regularly received Communion and keep them with Him safe for 45 days during a period of terrible chastisement. This book was translated into English in 1827 by Edward Irving, minister of the Protestant Church of Scotland. Irving's work would appear to be the basis for Darby's development of the Rapture theory. Paul Thigpen, The Rapture Trap: A Catholic Response to 'End Times' Fever (West Chester: PA: Ascension Press, 2001), pp. 143-5.

Out of those 1400 sexts (sixes?) is there ONE, just ONE that actually act like Jesus and live their lives like Jesus asked them to?

I know a few people who do but not as a group. Most people I have met that embody the teachings of Christ are not even Christians.

Apparently He doesn't like His creation being killed just after He gave them life. Your parents may have felt that way about you at one time. Think of the spooky one as God's wife, He decides what is to be done and 'she' makes sure it is done (using 'her' own judgment on how to accomplish God's words). Odd that some day you will thank Him for being just the way He is. lol

He even makes the first move sometimes, for most it will be the words "Are you alright?" as they emerge from the grave. In your case it could be while you are still alive, then it might just be "Are you coming?" after you see all the dead raised.

Just as murderous and anti-social then. I see.

roflmao I hardly think any gods are concerned with any human so I really doubt I would get any chance to thank any of them. Besides, it'd probably give it the wrong idea that I approved of its methods, manufacturing abilities, and immaturity.

Do you cook yourself, cause with the above post you should be done.

Perhaps you are BBQed or burnt, but I'm not. And no, I don't cook myself, I cook food, which is what I meant by "things".

"You burn things on yours? We don't. We cook them."

Those lovely char marks on a steak is the result of BURN. Lightly, mind you!

I tried my aunt's crow pie a few times. It was good. I posted it along with her recipe for squirrel. But that's off topic and in another thread.
