Yes, but have you done 50 years of research like Harold Camping in order to determine this, or did you leave some stone unturned as he did the last time he falsely declared a Judgment Day? If you did not do all the necessary research, please do us all a favor and stop spreading lies! What, do you work for the yogurt-covered raisin industry?

Personally, I find it quite entertaining. My dreams every night are VERY FUN!! Better than going to the movies. I'll wake up in the morning and decide that I want to go back to sleep for just one more dream. Not because I'm tired, but because they are FUN! WINNING!! LOL

Originally Posted By alexbook Actually, the 4004 BC date comes from an Anglican scholar, who worked it out from Genesis (presumably the King James Version). Of course, I know it from "Good Omens." I vaguely remember being told long ago that Jewish scholars are more flexible on the dates. Something about how the same word can mean either "day" or "era" in ancient Hebrew?
Originally Posted By MamaTinkAz I have to admit, I was brought up in the evangelical churches and as a child I was always fearful that I was going to miss the "rapture" and have to go through the tribulation or whatever it is.

They have been preaching the rapture for years and it has never happened. It just makes me sad that these "freaks of nature or Jesus" actions make people think that all Christians are like this when they are not. Unfortunately, it seems every religion has their problems. For us it is the radicals, for Catholics, they hide child molesters. Just saying.

Well except all those hot blonde public school teachers who seem to like 13 year old boys. But that does not count I guess.
Originally Posted By Labuda ^^ There are a HELL of a lot more child child molesting priests than there are child molesting teachers.

"I remember hearing that the bible literalists determined the beginning of the universe by counting up all the 'begats' and then worked backwards. Seriously." Stupid people never cease to amaze me.
Originally Posted By SuperDry <<< I remember hearing that the bible literalists determined the beginning of the universe by counting up all the 'begats' and then worked backwards. >>> Since some of those dudes supposedly lived to be hundreds of years, how did they come up with a "beginning" that's down to a specific year by counting backward? It would seem that there's a margin of error of a couple hundred years possible for each "begat."
