You'd think Tim LaHaye would be happy with this development, since he looks forward to the eternal torture of those he does not consider Real True Christians.

So let me see if I got this correct. The Bible says that God has a set time, and not even Jesus knows what that time is. But Obama's actions are so strong that it forces God to move his timetable up... so Obama is greater than God by his logic... And why do they always forget Jesus was a socialist himself?
It also drives me crazy when the right says the left wants to control how people live their lives, when they are the ones the ones saying who can marry who, and trying to force their relgion into the schools.

I often wonder what the next big apocalyptic date will be. 2000 had the millennium bug, 2012 is the end of the Mayan calendar. I guess 2036 will be the next big one when Apophis swings by.

Naw man, while Christians have to admit that Jesus said the world would end within the lifetime of his followers, they seriously claim that some secretive super Methuselah is alive today for the sole purpose of making Jesus not wrong. Jesus knew EXACTLY when the world would end; some time between 90AD and however long immortal people live.

If bringing socialism to a nation is catastrophic, why didn't Scandinavia usher in the end of days? Maybe it's because God will only return when America has fallen? Because conservative crackpots think America is the only important nation to God?

Please correct the descriptions. Huckabee clearly said DOCTOR LaHaye. Show some respect.

I thought the health care overhaul was Armageddon... how many more times is the world going to end under Obama?

Only if you think a Doctor of Ministry title granted by a seminary deserves respect. Tom Cruise may be a Doctor of thetan negation. But that wouldn't make me respect him more.

Sorry to be picky, but the Bible does quote Jesus as saying he doesn't know when the end will be. Matthew 24:36-37 says: "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son [Jesus], but the Father alone."

You are right that many Christians have believed in the Wandering Jew who will live until the second coming. Jesus/the Bible are supposed to be infallible and Jesus said in Matthew 16:28: "Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom." It's a pretty interesting trick to get out of a biblical error.

I really fucking hope this is the end times because I'm sick of hearing about it.

Wooooosh!

@entr0py

If it's good enough for Fox News it's good enough for me!

I just liked the seriousness that Huckabee showed and calling him doctor somehow made his claims more credible. God damned nutcases.

We just need to press him on the exact date. Once he gives us a date, we can make a deal: "I'll seek forgiveness for my sins, if you sign over all your worldly possessions to me on that date."

I'll say it again. People love using cliches like end times, end of days, the apocalypse, doomsday, reckoning, and it's the end of the world with the accompanying locust swarms, earthquakes, diseases, catastrophes, blah blah blah. Hollywood, the Bible and atomic weapons have turned people into excitable little drama queens. The earth will not end in some predicted scripted big bang, rather the natural forces of the universe will run their course over however many million years. "End of days", hahahahaha.
