What if Jesus had failed?

[smax]

Even if you take the Bible as the Gospel Truth, you are still faced with the harsh reality that Jesus must have failed because his his most critical prophesy failed to come true. In Matthew 24 Jesus is asked to reveal the signs of the end of the age and of his coming. In response to that he gives several examples of things to look for, but more importantly, he puts a strict timeline for when to expect the events of his second coming to have transpired:

"Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened"

This verse, and it's implications, are reinforced in several other locations of scripture.

Now, of course Christian apologists have went to great lengths to explain this away because accepting the implications would thoroughly destroy their entire basis for belief. It's funny how Christians have turned the bible into some sort of super code book that only the most spiritually enlightened can understand.

LOL

Meanwhile, Jesus is at least 1900 years past due, so it might be time for religious fanatics to consider a different religious angle to commit/waste their time with. Scientology is waiting with open arms, I hear.
