I said, ‘Sarah, how can you believe in creationism — your father’s a science teacher.’ And she said, ‘We don’t have to agree on everything.‘
“I pushed her on the earth’s creation, whether it was really less than 7,000 years old and whether dinosaurs and humans walked the earth at the same time. And she said yes, she’d seen images somewhere of dinosaur fossils with human footprints in them.”
Munger also asked Palin if she truly believed in the End of Days, the doomsday scenario when the Messiah will return. “She looked in my eyes and said, ‘Yes, I think I will see Jesus come back to earth in my lifetime.‘”
Well, He was on Family Guy last night.Quote:

I was raised Baptist. I'm not a Bible-thumping, everyone-must-believe-what-I-believe Baptist...and I'm not going to sit here and belittle you because we believe differently.
But I don't think you should attack people based on their beliefs - and that includes Palin.
freakin Hagee is trying to force the issue, and get Jesus to come here.
is this your answer?Quote:

Sorry but I don't exactly feel safe knowing a person who thinks the end times are approaching has the codes to our nuclear weapons (should she become president or if the president is incapacitated). Look up Self-fulfilling Prophecy.Quote:

But that's not the point of this thread, is it?
You asked if WE agreed with her.
:huh What's your point?Quote:

I'm not trying to be rude here...but what does that have to do with this thread?Quote:

You said people shouldn't attack her for her beliefs. When one of those beliefs is that the world will end in her lifetime and she might HAPPEN to have codes to nuclear weapons, I think it's relevant.Quote:

is that yes or no?Quote:

the preaching from the university where morals died.Quote:
:huh What's your point?
well, Clambake, you and I will just have to disagree on this. I have a feeling we probably disagree on a lot of things.
You asked a question.
I answered it.
End of story.
oh...and your comment about Baylor -
I know nothing about that University, so I don't know what you're referring to.
How about your thoughts on someone who thinks the end times are near having nuclear launch codes?Quote:

So you think she would hesitate when faced with a crisis (let's say like the Cuban Missile Crisis) to launch?Quote:

Maybe it will be in her lifetime, and maybe it won't.
Maybe she's seconds away from being in a tragic accident....don't get too excited now...this was just a hypothetical.
If that's the case, then the answer is probably no.
If she lives another 50 years, the answer might be right.
All of this to say what I said to begin with.
I believe Christ will come again, but I don't know when.
It's not for me or you to know.
she claims to know.
and mccain is maybe one good roll in the hay from her becoming president.
I have no idea what she'd do in that situation...but the truth of the matter is, you don't either.Quote:

So, you think that I believe Christ will return because Palin might launch a missile? :lol Funny.Quote:

Clambake - your question shows your ignorance about end times prophecy and what many evangelical christians believe.
There are many, many people, myself included, who believe the rapture will occur in our lifetime. The bible is very clear about what events must take place before that will happen, and we're pretty much at the point.
As to your worries about her having nuclear codes - you needn't bother your little mind about that. We christians don't believe there's anything we can do to hasten Jesus return. The time is known only to God and everything happens according to his timetable. Also, those of us who believe in the rapture know it just means that the born-again christians will be removed from the world - but the world WILL go on. A nuclear holocaust has NO part in end times prophecy.
Now - I'm well aware that this post will elicit all sorts of mean responses. However, you asked who agreed with Palin and my answer is yes. I already know what many of you here believe and I know you will mock and belittle my beliefs. I never said you had to believe them and neither has Sarah Palin.
So no one believes a war must be started in the Middle East (Israel needs to be attacked) to bring about the end times?Quote:

It's only a problem when some bitch like Hagee thinks he can and wants to help bring about the end times by fucking with other people.
hey crook. "little minds" try to cram fairytales down other peoples throats, so you "needn't mind" worrying about me falling for it.
I believe that things happening in the world today go along with what I learned as a child will happen in end times.Quote:

Go Sarah. You rock!
That was the weakest whip reversal attempt I have ever seen.
Nice projection though.
Who needs Jesus when you have Obama?
Keep in mind this was many years ago...and I'll leave it at that for my age...Quote:

I was told from a very early age that someday credit cards would turn to debit cards to make it easier...that would eventually turn to chips in our hands to make it even easier to buy.
*The value of the American dollar would drop, and at some point, the world would use a one-world money.
*The US would no longer be the super power in the world, and at some point, we'll move to a one-world government
*Increase in natural disasters, wars, famine, etc.
There are plenty other examples, but I am at work.
The thing is, even if I could put out the best proof ever, if people choose not to believe, there's nothing I can say that will change their minds.

Anyone who chooses to believe in said prophecies is a fool, seriously if you believe the end of times is near and that Jesus Christ is going to come down again to Earth you are a fool.
There are good ideas and moral principles in the Bible. I applaud anyone who decides to live their life by the teachings of the Bible. But anyone who for one second believes it to be 100% factual in any way is a moron.
Fairy tales.
I'm not well-versed in Bible prophecy. I certainly wish I understood it better.Quote:

As far as the implanted chips go, in the end times, chips will be a mark of the beast and will be used to buy and sell goods.
The thing is, these ideas are brought about slowly to condition us to believe they're a good idea.
Perhaps there is someone else from this site that knows and understand this better than I.
My thought, though, is that that if there is someone, they won't speak up because of comments made by some people.

Just one little thing. What if you are wrong on judgement day? If I

In that case, we'll repent. If God wants to be a jerk about it then, that's his loss.

One position that holds a lot of valid arguments, states that most of the prophecies in Revelation came true in the first century.
I guess what I'm saying, is there is a LOT of stuff out there on this. If you want to make the case for this, do your homework, or you'll come out sounding like a kook.
I'm not going to pretend to believe in the Bible just to cover my ass in case it's real. That's horrible reasoning.
don't worry. god knows who's pretending just to cover their ass. he also created us knowing we would demand proof.Quote:

But the simple truth is-- NO HUMAN BEING KNOWS. Where it does impact political processes is for those who use their belief in End Times to influence foreign policy and that is relevant to the discussion of her beliefs.
