I agree. This whole notion of the world ending soon is a despicable recruitment-drive by many christian organisations preying on the vulnerable and gullible.
I had a look at the first one that came up when I googled it and it was ebiblefellowship.com. They allow you to post comments, so I let...
I didn't know anything about this until I read this thread yesterday. Unbelievable stuff!! How many more 'end of the world' prophesies do we have to go through (with the attendant hysteria amongst those who get sucked into them)?
