Will Jesus return on a white horse?

RE: Will Jesus return on a white horse?
(December 30, 2012 at 4:17 pm)RichardP Wrote: As I understand it the Book of Revelations has Jesus returning on a white horse. Maybe what that really means is that he will return in a white Ferrari -- with a lot of horse power!

I guess that there is no reason why the second coming of Jesus would be somebody other than the original Jesus. I'm sure that he looks exactly the same as he did since Biblical times -- since he is God! He doesn't have to have aged. Remember he rose from the dead and went off to heaven as a living man. I don't know why people think that he will come as another person. That just doesn't make sense!Thinking Maybe their faith is weak and they think that the original Jesus died and he will have to be born again?

But the real question is why is Jesus waiting to come again?

I wish he would come and do something about the Middle Eastern conflict! That sure has been a big waste of money and a lot of people have died because of it. But I guess that God is beyond our comprehension and we just have to trust the Bible and the Republicans. It is too bad that we have to kill men, women, and little children because their religious beliefs are different than our own. But religion is the source of goodness and goodness must be maintained by committing horrific atrocities!

I hate questions like this. You might as well be asking "Why does Harry Potter fly around on brooms". I know this merely questioning the logic of the bible, which of there is none.

But to answer the question, the trope of god/s saving their people was not a new idea to Christianity. Long before Ra and Osirus and Horus were the original trinity saving the Egyptian people sitting in judgment of them.

The bible was cobbled together from the earliest Hebrew writings(OT) to the Council of Nicea(sp), written over 1,000 year period by 40 authors with books left out.

Why did the Character Jesus come down on a white horse? Because that was the mode of transportation for the powers at the time who could afford horses. The bible was written, like all religious characters, for the people back then of their time who followed that particular deity.

"Why" was this written, in all cases in all holy books, the reason is the same. The people who wrote them wanted their fictional super hero to come back during their lifetimes.

None of it makes sense of course because it is all fiction. But back then people did not have the modern scientific knowledge they have access to now, and politically speaking, utopia's sell, and have always been politically expedient for powers of any generation to get others to follow them.

As far as violence and death happening, the concept believers can't grasp is that their is no bearded man in a white robe vs a man with a red pitchfork fighting over the neurons in your brain. Bad things and good things happen in life, because they do, not because of some utopian fictional Superman vs Kriptonite.
