If you have a problem with ridicule, you shouldn't "preach" to people who will shoot your ridiculous religion to bits. You can't tell children who have PC proficiency to put their baby teeth under the pillow in order for the Tooth Fairy to visit.

WE stop believing in fairy tales when we enter Kindergarten. It seems that YOU are just getting started to believe just about anything at that age. Enjoy your life in La La Land. We all die and stay dead eventually. WE are OK with those facts of life!

@vinyl45s4ever If you think Religion is the same as Tooth Fairy tale,..then you are far away from becoming "PC proficient"

@cmhmp10sd

Yeah. It does seem like a big deal, at first, until you realize that Earthly pleasure can never really satisfy you. Still, atheism robs people of any reason to sacrifice, which is the big reason why it seems to encourage so much barbarity.

I don't think comments should be hidden if they are voted down. Just because a lot of people disagree with an opinion, doesn't make it invalid. A conscientious individual should be interested to hear all sides of a debate.

Sainthood please!

@mbrekable preceed those who are asleep, hence laymens terms a partial taking up. And no man knows the day or hour for both. Pouring Out and Christs return, and the Triune God cannot be separated :) Hopefully this sheds light on approx. 200 year old misinterpretation.

[mbrekable]

@mbrekable there is a rapture for the "old vines", yet those who have been asleep in Christ need to be awake hence Book of Joel and what Peter spoke consumed by Holy Spirit. Warning do not be a fig tree that produces no Fruit. read James on that one. yes, the whirlwind will take some up, yet there will be others who have choice to "not toward receiving deliverance in hopes of better resurrection" Hebrews. Remember only one true resurrection and those who are not asleep will surely not preceed

[mbrekable]

@mbrekable there is only one true resurrection, and there is a Pouring out before Wrath is upon earth. Without the Holy Spirit you are unprepared. Check out book of Joel and when Peter gave prophecy, then book of Joel speaks of "old vines, fig trees, etc. this is explanation of people just like when Paul spoke of "grafting in a olive grove". the rapture is not exactly as it has been misconstrued for around 200 years

[mbrekable]

@mwells219 There is a difference between The Pouring out of the Holy Spirit (whirlwind same as when elijah was transported) and Christ's touching down on earth after appearing in the skies for Armageddon.

@LynchMobster47 I agree with you here, and I never claimed otherwise. I watched this speech because Fulton Sheen was one of the last of a certain generation of "elocutionist" speakers. I wanted to watch his "style".

[jcisbell]

@LynchMobster47 Also, "deaths attributed to atheists? Sure just as there are deaths attributed to Christians. That's not the question. The question is, are there deaths attributed to ATHEISM? And the answer is 'no'. Whereas, religion encourages killing because religious people can possibly believe that they are for sure right and their enemy is wrong. Atheists aren't so sure. Of course there are always exceptions on both sides.

[jcisbell]

@LynchMobster47 Atheists don't have to prove anything. They don't claim there is no God. They reject your baseless claim that there IS a God. However, I'll go one step farther. I WILL prove there is no God. All you have to do is tell me WHAT PROOF you would accept. To end the suspense I'll tell you the outcome of this challenge; there is no proof you would accept. Faith does not require proof. But religious people insist that their belief is "knowledge". It's not. That's all an atheist says.

[jcisbell]

@LynchMobster47 You missed my whole point. I said that EVEN THOUGH this "rapture" would turn out to be false, there would someday, according to the Bible, BE a Rapture, right? Well, this same chick who tried to kill her kids would do the exact same thing if it was "the real" Rapture. Therefore, barbarity caused by religion.
