That article describes the rumors I was talking about. If you google the subject as a whole, you will get hit after hit. And I know people personally who are scared Obama is the Antichrist. Can't say I am friends with them, but I know them.

OK, here's a tester.

Who knows which book of the bible contains no mention of God?

Song of Songs, maybe?

Who gives a flying proverbial?

Song of Solomon (a.k.a. Song of Songs) says that love is like "the flame of Jah".

Jah is a poetic abbreviation of Jehovah. So failed.

I think it's Ester which doesn't mention God.

TRiG.

Revelations reads like a drug fueled cross between a transcript of one of the weirder Hammer Horror montages and the menu of a kebab shop. Could be that.

Yes, TRiG, it is the book of Esther.
There is no mention of God in the book.

A few people have posted comments to the effect that they don't see why they need to worry, seeing as they consider themselves to be pretty good, decent people.

The thing is, if they only knew the truth about themselves in God's eyes they'd be aghast. The whole race of Adam has been tainted with sin.

This is why atonement is necessary.

Against you, you only, have I sinned
and done what is evil in your sight,
so that you are proved right when you speak
and justified when you judge.

Surely I was sinful at birth,
sinful from the time my mother conceived me.

Surely you desire truth in the inner parts [a] ;
you teach [b] me wisdom in the inmost place.

Cleanse me with hyssop, and I will be clean;
wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.





from Psalm 51

Nobody is sinful at conception. What's a fetus going to do, hold up a bank?

In God's eyes we are born sinners.
"All wrongdoing is sin"

This may be interesting for anyone who doesn't know about it.

This is some more information about the two witnesses:

"The thing is, if they only knew the truth about themselves in God's eyes they'd be aghast. The whole race of Adam has been tainted with sin."

ERr, you I think mighten have gotten the wrong end of the stick as to what I was saying, I've done a list longer than I can be bothered to write down of 'sins', some which woudl immediatley get this post modded no doubt and possibly me on premod were I too list em; 'sin', in this sense, is some strange concept, which people have interpurited from translations of very old texts to which I don't pay any more attnetion than I would say, the scribblings of a random collumist in the Daily Mail.
If by some strange fluke of randomness God did exist, and wanted to then make me accountible for 'my sins', then he'd be in for a very long chat, and I'd win.

Ok. I'll pray for you that God would show you how you stand before him.

No. don't pray for me, if 'salvation' exists, I don't want none of it anyhow.

God's too much of a hypocrit from what I've seen of biblical writings for me to pay much attention.

I'd just hop on one leg......
