I'm a bit skeptical.

Then again, I'm Jewish, so Jesus is a figure of veneration to other people, and like all such figures, it's best for me to be polite about him.

I do not hate those who love Jesus. I just think it's a bit odd to make a judgement day.

It is said that the day of judgement will happen when no one suspects it. If we suspect it will happen then it won't. So as long as we're all paranoid about the end times, the end times will never get here!

What's wrong. Is it assuming all Christians are "Bible Thumpers" or something?

Exactly. Representing oneself as utterly ignorant of the beliefs of others is not against the rules. Representing the beliefs of others in an insulting way is against the rules.

A rabbit in a disney movie made out of bibles is against the rules?

Or is it a Vietnam era grenade launcher made out of bibles? I don't readily know.


But back to the topic at hand, we all need to take turns on watch. By watch I mean believing that the rapture is going to happen during that time, I'll gladly take the time from the first day of October of 2011 to the first day of January of 2012.

Maybe it's a device that the Fremen use to attract Shai Hulud... made of Bibles.

There are billboards of this all over the place in California, and I believe I saw one or two out in Chicago. Has anyone else noticed this?

We have one of these stupid things on Elm Street in Manchester. The other night I was driving past it and it prompted me to guesstimate how many times Judgment Day has been predicted over the past two thousand years.

Didn't Jesus say that some of the people he was talking to in person would still be alive when it came? Wouldn't that tend to indicate that maybe it's not coming?

I'd actually be curious as well.

Doesn't it seem spectacularly arrogant, as well, to presume special knowledge after what must literally be thousands of prior false predictions?

Well, this particular kind of person has to study the Bible intensely; so they must be aware of earlier predictions.

I don't think you can just write him (and all these people passing on the message) off as crazy quite that simply.

to say that X/X/X is the the end of the world, period, goes beyond just wrong, imho.

Not really though. World has to end sometime. Either by war, lack of resources, pollution, sun dying etc. Just not for a fair bit yet. Will probably still be around after humanity is gone as well.
