Irony? You want to talk irony?

When I was very young, we lived on a large acreage in the country. The
well water tasted very "ironey." My father had a large SS tank on a
trailer he would bring town water to the house in, for drinking and cooking.

You only think you are talking IRONEY!

The world doesn't even officially BEGIN until the summer of 2015. So,
I don't think we have anything to worry about this coming May.

It will be soooo interesting to see how Kooktard Kamping will back
peddle / remove the egg from his face when the world is still here on
May 22.

He'll either claim that his calcs were wrong or that God granted a
reprieve. Either way, he's right and it's not your place to question
God's authority ;-)

He's apparently not read the passage in the Bible that states
that no man may know the day or the time of the Rapture.

Heh! Actually, in Camping's pamphlets he states this very passage
repeatedly just before going on to calculate the day based numerous
*subtle* hints provided by God.



Of course. Why am I not surprised.

Worse than that, if property prices hadn't dropped to the point where
you can purchase a home with the change in your pocket, I'd take out a
forty-year mortgage, JUST THE DAY BEFORE!

All kidding, I can take a look at the complexities and problems with
having life "spontaneously generate" and, instead of a leap of faith
into such, I choose to leap in the direction of a mind having made a
creation(s) and left evidence in its' existence ... :-)

Let me put my statement in perspective:

Matthew 24:36, King James Bible:

"But of that day and hour knoweth no [man], no, not the angels of
heaven, but my Father only."

Now, he sets his knowledge above his Gods'.

I mean ... that is beyond rational description ... unless his bible is
one I am not familiar with.
