How Long Will Christians Wait for the End Time to Come?

[deep thinker]

Why do you place value upon your life?  Would it not be more efficient for matter to stay in its natural state?  It seems like a lot of work for matter to evolve from atoms to rocks to humans with a soul that place value upon their individual existence.  Wouldn't it be easier for our atoms to sit still and starve to death compared to cultivating the land and hunting animals for food?  If there is no creator and our lives and soul are completely meaningless then why don't we all just go jump off a bridge and avoid the inefficacies of life?

Project much?

Natural instincts aren't your strong suit either, I believe. Humans aren't the world. There are many other life forms surrounding us, who don't jump of a bridge either. And what soul? Do you have one in your pocket? If so, can you present it for everyone to see?

No, caveman logic. Desperately looking for explanations, for some higher being taking you by the hand.

It is much easier to attack rather than engage in deep thinking.  You don't need to get so upset.  If there is no creator then what is the point of life.  Would you agree that a living species that feels pain is different than a rock or tree that doesn't feel pain?  If you agree, then what is the point of that living species ever coming into existence if there is no creator?  Yes, I have a soul.  It is rooted in my ability to hand money to a complete stranger to help them out.  It is rooted in my ability to have a faith in a higher power.  It is rooted in my ability to have free will.  It is rooted in my ability enjoy music.  It is rooted in my ability to reject evil actions that would help myself but hurt others.  Yes, humans have an extremely strong soul that cannot be explained by science.

Are you not capable of deep thinking?  Atheists always hide behind a damn word when they are questioned to state their belief system instead of simply attacking the belief system of others.  It is very easy to attack the faith of others when you are too afraid to even decide what you believe.  Just because you are an atheist doesn't mean you are not capable of thinking about abstract concepts. 

I don't believe anything. And I don't give a single shit what you are believing. Don't pester me and I won't pester you. But since you saw fit to come here, treating us all to your ignorance whilst throwing around accusations and blanket statements, I don't see any reason to hold back.

Also, much to your surprise, atheism doesn't define me. In my day to day life, I don't waste a single thought on my absence of belief. I'm only reminded of why I don't particularly care for willfully ignorant people when being confronted with statements like that. Go, preach to someone who cares.

The "End Prophecies" have been coming true for a long time now.  Maybe you just have confirmation bias.  And maybe that applies to other places as well.

 Could be they have an order of coming to fruition and over a certain period of time, the scriptures never dictated when they would start, but they are nearly finished. By the way there'll be no rapture, Christians will go through the tribulation as all people will. There will be a big difference for us, God will be with us.

Could be the so-called prophesies are just random events that happen all the time before and after Jesus Predicted them. Like Jesus predicted the fall of Jerusalem. This happened many times before and it didn't take divine revelation for Jesus to look around at all the Romans and predict it would happen again. Plus the gospels were written about ten years after it happened. What else is going to happen?

Again, simply state your belief in the origin of matter.  Then, explain why your belief system is superior to any religion.  You are angry because you realize your belief system is not superior to anyone else.  You have spent a lot of time attacking others because you believe your beliefs (and by the way, having no belief system is a belief) are superior.  It makes you very angry to realize you have zero scientific evidence that your belief system is superior to any religion.

Earth produces its own gases and fluids, such as water and oil, from its internal chemical factory.  If we ever get to a planet or moon that has similar internal processes such as the Earth has we will also discover oil and natural gas on it.

Why is it called fossil fuel?

I don't have any. Is that so hard to understand? I said it in my first post responding to your blanket statements. Nobody knows at this point in time. But that doesn't mean to feel the need to fill the blanks with some speculation. Much to your amazement, obviously, most of us don't go about our lives pondering the existence of the universe.

It's you feeling that need and it's you doing the projecting. As I said, just like our distant ancestors, looking at the sun and the moon, not knowing what they are and calling them gods.

Atheism is not a belief system. And not having a belief system is not a belief - don't be absurd.

They'll wait forever. Christianity will die out before the world will.

Atheism the lack of the belief in god that's all to it. 

^^^^^^THIS SO MUCH THIS

We do not believe in the christian god because it is simply myth and fantasy.
