Well,looks like another revelation is coming true!

[ace33]

I've seen some of you post religious facts/opinions in these forums and i wasn't sure if i should post here or not so let me know if it was ok.<br /><br />I have done some research for a while on Revelation Prophecies and so on.I dont know how much you guys believe in the bible or if you do, so i will share this with you anyway....<br />-----------------------------------------------<br />Europe and many other countries either are or will be going to a National Identidication Card that you will need to buy food,gas,government benefits and so on.Most of this was due to 9/11 and other major terrorist attacks.<br /><br />They believe that it would make it impossible for them to enter our country with false paperwork,therefore providing safety among our/their people.<br /><br />The crazy thing is in our country they voted like 81% approving this.The bigger % being women!<br /><br />Europe is in the process of making this happen with Tony Blair leading the charge....and many other countries already have this system in progress.<br /><br />Why is this such a big deal?<br /><br />Some people believe this is the beginning of a "NEW WORLD ORDER"or a "ONE WORLD ORDER"or a "ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT"however you wanna put it!<br /><br />Some people are willing to do this for the safety of the American People.<br /><br />Only problem is,is that we will lose are civil Rights and a lot of other priveliges along the way!<br /><br />But,of course(us Cristians)have another view as well!<br /><br />IN B.C Rome in itself was Know as an "EVIL" Empire.A Babylon if you will.But,Before JESUS Returns;there will be another empire of the likes of rome and so on!<br /><br />some may consider that we are now in the tribulation period!<br /><br />Whats a tribulation period.<br />A man will come to rise during this period and will consider himself christ!He will have the power do what he wishes and how he wishes.The tribulation period is said to be for 7 years.<br /><br />This Man will also carry a number.On his head or is right hand.This number is of a beast (SATAN,Devil,Dragon)whatever you want to call it.<br />This number is 666!!!This man is the Antichrist!pretty much SATAN himself!If you dont know the definition of a satan well,imagine 9/11 happening everyday times 1000 or more!<br /><br />There is also what is called the RAPTURE!I personally dont know if this happens before the tribulation,in the middle or after.There are many opinions on that!But,the Rapture is when GOD takes the ones who are saved and believers in his word.There are movies that can help you understand more than what im saying like "Left BEHIND","Tribulation"or even the "THE STAND"if you will.<br /><br />Questions people ask!<br />Who is supposed to be the "ANTICHRIST"?<br />Well i dont know!I dont think were supposed to know,but i may be wrong!<br /><br />The reason why i made this topic was to let you guys know about this.<br /><br />Why would anyone be required to have "NIC"(national identification card)if they are from and was born here?Good question isn't it?<br />Why would we?<br /><br />I'll let you figure that out on your own!

IMO I would put more stock in the "Orwellian" view than anything biblical.<br /><br />But in either case it does not take prescience to figure out human beings are flawed creatures of habit and emotions(especially women)<br /><br />Time and again we have traded our liberties for a sense of "security". This was warned about in the formation of our country (since our founders knew what happened in the historical accounts of other civilizations, hence, the "balance of power" in our govenmenatal model)<br /><br />but human nature cannot be denied.<br /><br />There is no shortage of those whom prey upon the weak-minded.<br /><br />Success breeds complacency.<br /><br />The complacent cannot be bothered by the cold fact of the corruption of power, and the threat of force.

You already have a national identity card, two of them in fact.<br /><br />They are called your Social Security card (with your national identification number on it), and your drivers license (with another national number).<br /><br />If you've got credit cards then they too are national identification cards used by all manner of entities to track your habits.<br /><br />Who cares though?<br /><br />Who is tracking all that information? Who is watching YOU at this moment, and even if they were why would you give a rat's ase?<br /><br />The Snoids are making you paranoid, dude.

Wow!<br /><br />Ace, I thought you were talking about Art when I read your description of the Antichrist! Very scary.<br /><br /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="rolleyes.gif" />

[Terry]

Well, you guys go and rapture all you want, when I die I'm going to Valhalla, where I get to whore, booze, fight, sail, fish, wear furry clothing, and freeze my *** off for eternity!<br /><br />Your levantine shepherd god is ok, but I prefer the nordic variety.

&lt;disable PC Meter&gt;<br /><br />The afterlife where you get to frolic forever with 70 virgins wouldn't suck ... but apparently you have to be such an unredeemed @sshole during the earthbound phase to get there that it's reserved for relatively few. Thank God for that, anyways.<br /><br />I apologize to anyone who is offended by this statement, except for those at whom it was directed ... and my guess is most of them don't frequent message boards so screw 'um.<br /><br />&lt;Re-engage PC Meter&gt;

Am I wrong to think of Carrot Top as the Anti-Christ?

Its pretty obvious to me that the AntiChrist is Al Davis. There's probably a bunch of numbers tattooed on that wrinkly old noggin of his.

I have reservations about the USAGE of the NIC. But the overall concept is similar to a passport that everyone must carry. Bad news for guys like me who always seem to end up carrying my wifes License, Lipstick, CC, etc. Just one more thing with which to bog down.<br /><br />But to use to buy food, medicine, etc gives the GOVT and companies too much access to spending habits and vices. IE, do you really want the govt to know how much birth control you buy? Or Alcohol? Or fatty foods? How soon until they figure out a way to tax us based on the items we use rather than the amoount we earn or the amount we spend (another topic but my preferrence).<br />Those who buy cigarettes pay a higher tax than those that dont.

The government doesn't make me paranoid. It's too inept to make me paranoid.<br /><br />Case in point, the flight simulation school where two of the terrorists who crashed the planes on Sept. 11 learned how to pilot airliners, received on Monday notices from the INS clearing both of them to fly becaause they were legal immigrants. Never mind that they were terrorists, or even dead!<br /><br />Nope, the government doesn't make me paranoid one whit.<br /><br />But those little guys who live down in the sewers, the sewer snoids.... THOSE farkers make me paranoid!

"The afterlife where you get to frolic forever with 70 virgins wouldn't suck ..." - Om<br /><br />No, it wouldn't suck, but I wonder where the infatuation with virgins comes from? I'd take 70 experienced party girls over 70 virgins any day. Having experienced both at some point, MY opinion is that a romp with a virgin pales by comparison.<br /><br />You could make the point that virgins are safer in this day and age and that would certainly be true, but hell, if it's a FANTASY of the afterlife you can certainly stipulate that the experienced ones come clean ... if you will. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" />

Ace, do catholics, coptics, orthodox, mormons, quakers, mennonites, anglicans, episcopalians, presbyterians, methodists, and lutherans all share your interepretation of revelations?<br /><br />Just curious as to who "us Cristians" are.
