I am unconcerned. The Tribulation is as real as the movie you reference. The only difference is that you, and many like you, can only recognize one of them as fiction.
Besides, how do you know I wouldn't just take sides with Satan?

You personally? I wouldn't know that. Honestly it does not matter to me which side you would perfer. I am just providing information to those who woulld like to know, or for those who are using this movie as a 'plan B' as the movie seems to reflect how most people see Christianity and the end times.

I have a devote christian friend. He doesn't want to be raptured. He would rather be on earth after the apocalypse. It is just an interesting view point. I thought I'd though out there.

God gave you a choice, and tasked us to help those who want to choose Him the oppertunity and clarity to do so. We have not been tasked to judge the choice you make. Even if it means your soul.

O no, he doesn't want to help people find god. He wants to live on earth in the war like days that follow.

OK by whom? You?
You sound like you would be having a problem with any drug that produces the effects you have listed...
Why do you think God approves of such a drug that has such effects on your mind? You know, jstrodel would be disappointed in you.

Then tell him to mind his portions at the dinner table.
"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."
-Stephen Jay Gould

Even so, you're going to shed a tear when I burn, right? Maybe, Maybe not. A large part of me says you will be getting what you have lived your life wanting, so why be sad?

kinda like how wine works?
Remember this is the same Jesus that was labled a glutton and drunkard by the religious leaders of the day.
