    I did not really know where to post this

    I apologize in advance, I do believe in God, I believe in the teachings of my church, but I am not a everyday go to church kind of guy that is without sin. But forgive me but how can these dumb ass folks by the millions believe ass clowns about the end of the world. Ya know, gives me more faith that I am blessed with the intelligence to understand the world as we know it, in my own way, right or wrong. I actually pity the folks that fell for this folly and am amazed that anyone could.

    If you think the United States is bad, think of another country that wants to put troops on the border to keep illegal aliens out, instead of walling in their citizenry

    I've found churches full of two kinds of people: (1) those who want to tell you how to live your life, and (2) sheep. Exactly the same as in politics. Both arenas fill needs of ones who want power, and ones who do not want to have to think for themselves.
    A man should spend his time flying and paddling, or resting up from flying and paddling.

    Pretty broad brush you're painting with Jack..

    so, if it was said in the bible that the world would end and it did not , does that prove the bible is wrong?



    can I take my helmet and BASE rig off now?

    It only proves that man can't second guess God with man's flawed interpretations...

    It says in the Bible that the end will come as a thief in the night, and that no man will know when it is coming. Only a fool thinks he knows when it is coming, and only bigger fools believe someone else when they say they know....
