@Goodlife - The only people who routinely proclaim, with prophetic certainty, that the world is due to come to an end, are the JWs.
Movies, Comics, books might discuss catastrophic world endings, but mostly for speculation and fun. Its mostly fiction. Like the current obsession with zombies and a zombie apocalypse, for instance.
I find the world we live in a great one, full of marvel and love and friendship and experience and pleasure, personally....
Maybe if you obsessed less about your holy book and all the supposed imperfections of non-beleivers and spent a bit more time just doing stuff you would be a happier and more contented individual...

Whatever your attitude toward religion, you surely recognize the great influence it has had upon mankind.
So when people say //The only people who routinely proclaim, with prophetic certainty, that the world is due to come to an end, are the JWs.//
You are wrong ,because the Bible does not say that, and you have the original post.
So I don’t think you will ever understand the Bible.
Andy-hughes@ What you see is pople of this world are gifted with that faculty of consciousness which we call “mind”. Evidently they are not using their minds rightly. That must be why nothing they reason out and attempt is succeeding, but everything is breaking down, leaving them wondering, confused and nonplused. The whole world which worldly men are trying to bring into line with modern thought is fashioned according to wrong thinking, and the longer the world goes, the farther it get away from the absolute truth. (Isa. 55:8-11, )

goodlife - this is a first!
If memory serves, this is the first time that you have replied directly to me - so thank you for that courtesy.
However, if you wish to disagree with me, as I with you, then please do so 'person-to-person, rather than dressing up your response with a complex and ultimately meaningless tract.
To do so infers that you are unable to think for yourself, but only able to respond in the words of ancient scholars.
This implies a serious lack of original thought.
Your view? And I do mean YOUR view?
