I'm not sure what your point is. Are you trying to school us on what to do when Jesus comes back?

Because I'm more worried about Loki coming back.

I think that if Satan was given the world to run for a short time, he'd make it the absolute party capital of the universe. The taps would never run dry and the jokes would always be funny. You could hang out in the pool all day and your finger tips would not get all wrinkled. Chocolate and peanut butter candies would automatically drop your body fat to 8%. Sex would increase your alertness and energy levels.

He'd make it paradise on Earth, so that when Jesus came riding on down with his holy armies he'd stop and say "you know, that looks pretty damned good" and he'd be instantly teleported to the DJ booth and we'd put the apocalypse on hold for the rest of eternity.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Not to mention the music would kick ass.

Have you heard the shit that's meant for Jesus? He would hop on that turntable and be all like, "Check this out guys," and then when Creed starts blasting through the speakers, everyone would start looking for some two-by-fours and large nails.

A better analogy.




You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.

Genesis 1:29

Besides, it's highly plausible that Jesus was in fact, annointed with hemp oil.

Hemp was used for a variety of things. That doesn't mean it's okay to translate it into a drug that can act as stimulant, depressant, and an hallucinogen.

No, When Jesus comes back it is too late. What I am trying to do is point out in the tribulation (what was depicted in the movie) no grand gesture will save you. That the rules of salvation will be the same. However that does not mean the rules of this world for Christians may not be the same. It is very likly that your new faith will be tested to the point of death.

Nothing of consenquence has. Everything said points the conversation is a different direction than the direction of the stated topic.
