Talking to him will make you wonder if you've got a contact. But for now I am going to bed. signing off how. Good night. Happy New Year and welcome to AF.

Dang, I was enjoying our conversations. Well, have a good sleep.

And considering all the failed end time prophecies in the twentieth century alone, it's a wonder anyone still talks about that. But no one acts embarrassed or contrite if they made the prediction and failed.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

...Wait, so this somehow disproves evolution? Was I standing too close to someone who was smoking something?

I didn't say it disproves anything that is what everyone is saying I stated.

I didn't say your explanations were not clear. They are perfectly clear. I said your conclusion does not follow (non sequitur). The two plus two part is clear. It's when you say it equals five that I have to object.

Actually you would disagree with me even if I said you are real.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Okay, now I see what she meant about you being one of her favorites.

I don’t know I guess I just forgot to keep my mouth shut and asked this guy if he wasn’t sure we might not be having an early spring. He said it might be because the bible says in the end times…

My point here is not whether Jesus said aught about unseasonable weather, but the danger of end time prophecy is that it allows people to ignore the very real issue of global warming. Why worry about what we’re doing to our planet if this world is not your home. Maybe burning fossil fuel is god’s way of fulfilling prophecy.
Since you can't grow wheat in Greenland like they used to be able to do it's safe to say that it's still cold.
