Arpa, if you keep making prophecies like that, I'm going to order a bunch of tea on my credit cards and ship them to you. There's a good deal going on on Amazon right now I'm sure.

I prefer Chinese "chai" rather rather than the Indian "tey". No, no I prefer "furkish kahveh".

I've been studying this subject for 25 years.

WOW! Best argument ever, you had me converted!

25 years? Wow!! You mean you began this study at the age of one?
So, did you find out when you will ascend to heaven while us, the "atheists" will descend six foot under?
ARE WE HAVING FUN OR WHAT!!!
Oh! btw Mikey. Do you spread this kind of natural fertilizer at other fora or just here?

There is nothing there to believe or not believe. I think you are asking for people to have faith in what you are saying is true (since you can't prove or disprove such conjectures). And as you said, faith is a step (I'd argue several steps) below reality.

Once again, your comments are unbelievable. How did you get to be a moderator?

I wrote "Our Noah's Ark" to and for Christians. I'm not interested in the opinions of atheists.

And now that we are running out of argument we get personal?
How did Sip become a mod? Is it because unlike some of us here, under that "cheesy hat" he has a skull full of grey brain matter.

The point is, shouldn't a moderator know something about religion?

My grandfather used to say "live and learn". How true! And now we learn that Noah was Christian???? And that his "ark" was in fact a "kirk/church"???
Was Julius Caesar Christian? W e will see the connection in another post in Language. Hint. Pontiff.
Dear "mickey" your ark is leaky and your oars are broken.
Please don't ask me how we spell "oar" in Armenian.

I was making an analogy to Noah's Ark, nothing else.

As far as I am concerned you and your noah's arse can sink to the bottom of Atlantis.
Tell us something. Since you seem to know all about the "ark". Do tell us. In that bestial menagerie did the mouse make love to the elephant or visa versa?

Sip is the resident priest.

I've told you everything that I believed was important. There is nothing more that I want to add. You will find out soon enough. Michae1

Soon enough? How soon a year or two or a century?

Let's be serious for a moment. Pretend I have not said anything up to this point. On what basis should I "believe" your "theory"?

He is offering you a brand new credit card "Noah's Arc" and you are refusing?

I have been serious. You should know the truth by your Christian studies. If you have never studied the Bible, how can you know the difference? It appears that you haven't spent much time learning, or you don't care, which amounts to the same thing.

I have been serious. You should know the truth by your Christian studies. If you have never studied the Bible, how can you know the difference? It appears that you haven't spent much time learning, or you don't care, which amounts to the same thing.

I said lets be serious. Instead of answering my question, you are starting to insult my intelligence for some reason. Why?

I asked a simple question. On what basis should I "believe" your "theory"? You are certainly not God so your words can definitely be wrong. We know that God's word is True. So let's take your first claim:

Rev. 13:1 - The beast with seven heads and ten horns.

The seven heads are seven nations. The ten horns are ten kings. The beast is a group of nations that will wage war or the leader of those nations. Literally, it is Israel and the Muslim nations that surround her.

Do you mean to imply God somehow created, acknowledges, or recognizes those "Nations"? Nations are man-made. They can change any day by redrawing some arbitrary line, through conquest, or through purchase. What possible reason would I have to believe that your claim about somehow these "nations" are part of God's plan or anything that God would have at all recognized as "entities" (let alone talk about or prophecise) is at all True?

It is absolutely insulting to me that you would imply the Christian God has any notion of, or cares at all about these "7 Arab Nations" and their "leaders".

So I ask again, on what basis should I "believe" YOUR theory?

Also this entire notion of God "prophecies" seem quite ridiculous to me. Why would God need to make prophecies in such obscure ways?

I am serious and I'll say it again. Your Christian studies should tell you whether I am right. You are also right that I am not God. This is why I say you have to rely on your Christian studies. The words are all there. The answer is there. If you can't see the answer, when it is plainly written, why do you need to know anything else? I have absolutely no hope that any answer I could give to your questions would influence you at all. Evidence of that, your little credit card treatise. I have no intention of telling you everything I know, nor could I. I gave you the high points. And as I said earlier, I don't care whether you believe me and I've had enough ridicule. This is my last post. All I came to say was, if you take my first post seriously, now would be a good time to start watching...Michae1

Translation: "Believe me just because I said so." .. well ... ehm ... if I believed every prophet who came along and told me to believe him, I think I would be doing exactly the opposite of what my "Christian studies" have taught me.

You may mock my credit card interpretation of the Lord's word as you wish. But to me, what I said fits the prophecies just as well as yours does (if not better).
