Also, as SW77, being Australian should know, the man and the dog are working together for the merino's welfare, not planning their mass genocide, so another level the silly comic fails on.This would only be an accurate depiction if the man were invisible and it was another sheep instead of a dog.

The point is often made about apocalyptic wishful thinking, that it seems most prevalent among the underclass and the disenfranchised, those who, to say the least, have less to lose if society as we know it goes belly up. So it does seem likely that there is a degre of wannabe schadenfreude driving the phenomenon.Does anyone wonder if doomsdayers are secretly TRYING to bring the end of the world(or at least sabotage within functional society) just so they can say "told ya so!"?

They gave the revelations, you're the one claiming to know when it's going to happen. (something which even Jesus said He didn't know)Do you include Jesus and John, the author of Revelation, in that apocalyptic wishful thinking.
Aren't we all?You're some strange kinda Christian, BB.
Don't we all?Do you pick the bits of the Bible you like and toss out the rest?

A thousand years, a million perhaps...Sorry, could you point out where I said I knew WHEN it was going to happen?
I don't, and have never claimed this. What I do claim is that it WILL happen, at some stage in the future.
One year, ten years, whatever... we as Christians should be prepared, which is what Jesus, John, Peter, Paul and others have tried to point out in a rather obvious way (I would have thought!)
The FEMA coffin thing has to be one of my favorite screw ball ideas. What they are going to commit mass murder but take the time to put people's remains In coffins and give them a proper funeral?
My thoughts exactly. If people want an idea of how mass genocide would be handled, look at how efficiently Hitler did it. Coffins would not be used, for sure.
Oh, so you ARE claiming to have knowledge of when Jesus will return?The supernatural blindness is incredible!![]()
Right, because thousands of individual coffins makes more sense than, say, a reusable dumpster.I would suggest the coffins are simply for easy transport of bodies via forklift.
Oh, so you ARE claiming to have knowledge of when Jesus will return?
No one knows the day or the hour.
But the season... now that's another story.
Why do you think Jesus said what he said in Matthew 24? Why do you think he revealed Revelations to John? Why do you think the last few verses of Rev. are a warning to NEVER omit or add a word to the Revelation.
Because of it's importance to Christians as a WARNING and FOREKNOWLEDGE.
What does "season" mean to you?
