This is why religion and politics are a taboo subject we could go on for ever arguing over our views if you go to church and worship god so be it but don't condem those of us that have different views on the subject you will never change my opinion on the subject and if i even went into my opinions about the bible,how the earth was formed,how man arrived on this planet some of you would have a stroke and tell me i'm nuts. All because you have been force fed your beliefs from a young age and lack an open mind to any other possible views on this subject, I'm am open minded i don't beleve or disbeleve, any thing is possible until it is proven one way or another sometimes you have to read between the lines to understand what is really being said.Read revilations if you think that grasshoppers that sting from their nose and tail and birds that drop bombs are whats awaiting us at the end of the world your nuttier than i.

Well, not all of us were "indoctrinated" from birth. I didn't get saved until I was 21!! I used to shoot steroids, get drunk, bang chicks, curse, blah blah blah until then. So you're tellin me I don't have an open mind?? I have a lot of past experiences to compare and contrast my current life with Christ to show me that God IS real...that's having an open mind. He helped me from all that mess of a life. You may call it "using God as a crutch," or whatever else it may be called, but I'd rather use God as that crutch than go back to that old kind of lifestyle!! I'd rather have a horrible day as a follower of Christ than the best day apart from Him!!
As far as your Revelation theology goes, that's not the norm. That's just people trying to "predict" the future and the end times. Most are reading into it just trying to find something. What pretty much sums up Revelation is,"you better be right with God" that's it. Too many people go looking for things in the Bible that are not really "salvation" related and they like to twist it to tickle other peoples' ears; to make them worry just that little bit more....all the while God is probably shaking His head saying,"That's not the point!!! Who cares about birds dropping bombs and all that nonsense, just look to ME!!! The point is to 'LOOK TO ME!!'"
