Doug, what is a 'Big Time Christian'? I know of none who say that.

They're the ones with the biggest mouths, John. And, the ones who are so
eager to "share" their way of life with people who didn't ask for that
"favor".


And you have a quote, somewhere, of one of these 'big mouths' saying those
who don't believe in his
'religion' are going to some horrible fate?

If so, I doubt if he speaks for the majority of Christians. Are there
extremists? Sure, just like
there are extremist Muslims and Democrats.

Two acquaintances whose minds were polluted by the same church in Kentucky.
One from Chicago. And, an entire family of eight from here. All talk about
Armegeddon as if it is real, and well deserved by non-believers. Buddhist?
Too bad. Jew? Oh well.

Are those acquaintances 'Big Time Christians'? I know some of the Christian denominations are
believers in the 'Armageddon' (a final battle between the forces of good and evil), but I've not
heard any state that 'non-believers' are going to some horrible fate thereafter.

The concept of Armageddon, given the amount of nuclear weapons existent, doesn't seem so far
fetched. There may be disagreement over who the good and bad guys are. The way things are shaping
up, it may be extremist Muslims versus everyone else.

I suspect that some people have the good taste to either not believe it, or
not discuss it if they do.

Nostradamus wrote something about the last big war beginning in the Middle
East, begun by an enormous fire sent by a bear from the north. Hmmm...maybe
the Russians will finally get fed up with their Muslim problems, and anyone
even remotely connected with those problems.
