"end times" are coming, "end times" are coming
they've been forecasted for almost 5000 years. They've missed hundreds of forecasted dates. But the believers still don't question.

After hundreds of 'false alarms', I guess it takes real faith to still believe.

1. Some things need to be believed to be seen.
You're right. For thousands of years, the end is always "near," yet somehow they're ALWAYS wrong...now, what is that definition of "insanity" again, about doing the same thing over and over...pretty much the same principle here.

5. Hardcore believers were almost hysterical during the last
Israeli/Palestinian armed confrontation. Many were convinced the 'rapture' was at hand. Yeah, riiight!
