Maybe a strong word, but I'm not speaking to anybody in particular. Just saying that people in general tend to apply greater importance to the time frame they are alive. For centuries people have always tended to believe they are living in the end times.

I said earlier we have been in the "last days" since Christ went to Heaven. But obviously nobody knows when the time will come. I certainly think it is more possible at this point than ever before.

I guess the way everything is shaping up they believe it. i sometimes think it will, but when i step back and think about it, i honestly have no clue nor does anyone else

Many people in the early church expected the Second Coming to be in their lifetime. they used the verses that said the time was near. The point I think is to be constantly watchful. Being prepared never hurts. But we don't know the time and place. Christ's first return was in a period not really set apart. Like that, I think it will be at a time we all least expect it. Too many people are comparing current events to actual signs of it being soon. Many of these events were actually worse years ago. Hal Lindsey had people believing the Common Market was the 10 kingdoms. It's changed in name and even in number of members. I used to be very into this but the more I read on this and the more history changed the assumptions, the less I found myself believing it or reading about it.

The Jesus is white thing is ridiculous, I've also heard some black people say that he was black, again that is wrong.

Well said. I still find it fasinating to read and think about.

I do think a lot of stuff today like the Left Behind stuff is just playing on people's emotions to make money.

It may be wrong, but it is light years closer to being correct than claiming he was caucasian.

Nobody is arguing, because if you will notice we all said he wasn't white. It's just random coversation.

I don't see how being Jewish is closer to black than white. Jewish is Jewish.

I was just saying that even though I think that's wrong as well, it's a lot more plausible to figure out a way for Jesus to have been of African or Arab descent vs. being of European descent.

Sorry, my post wan't too uppity. Better? Good try though at you attempt to make fun of me, although I would have hoped you could have thought of something better than making fun of a person's religion. You stay classy.
