Perhaps, being an intelligent human, s/he's seen no evidence warranting faith in your knowledge and less warranting faith in your solution.

How then is that person as wise as they think they are. THey think they are wise enough to solve a mystery yet before they start they block themselves from solving it, because they still abide by the very ethics that caused the world to SUCK like it does. Soon it w ill be realized that those ethics are to be avoided.

In the next week, watch the news and observe how many people die. total. War flood tornado or poop falling from a roof. All the same. Watch.

flood, wars, tornados? all signs of the end times?? Or just another persons sad attempt at predicting the future? Hmmm lets take a look at apocolyptic predictions throughout the ages........

Here are a few of my favorites:

Quote:

968 CE: An eclipse was interpreted as a prelude to the end of the world by the army of the German emperor Otto III.

Quote:

992: Good Friday coincided with the Feast of the Annunciation; this had long been believed to be the event that would bring forth the Antichrist, and thus the end-times events foretold in the book of Revelation. Records from Germany report that a new sun rose in the north and that as many as 3 suns and 3 moons were fighting.

Quote:

1346 and later: The black plague spread across Europe, killing one third of the population. This was seen as the prelude to an immediate end of the world. Unfortunately, the Christians had previously killed a many of the cats, fearing that they might be familiars of Witches. The fewer the cats, the more the rats. It was the rat fleas that spread the black plague.

Quote:

1914, 1915, 1918, 1920, 1925, 1941, 1975 and 1994, etc. were other dates that the Watchtower Society (WTS) or its members predicted.

Since late in the 19th century, they had taught that the "battle of the Great Day of God Almighty" (Armageddon) would happen in 1914 CE. It didn't.

The next major estimate was 1925. Watchtower magazine predicted: "The year 1925 is a date definitely and clearly marked in the Scriptures, even more clearly than that of 1914; but it would be presumptuous on the part of any faithful follower of the Lord to assume just what the Lord is going to do during that year." 6

The Watchtower Society selected 1975 as its next main prediction. This was based on the estimate "according to reliable Bible chronology Adam was created in the year 4026 BCE, likely in the autumn of the year, at the end of the sixth day of creation." 8 They believed that the year 1975 a promising date for the end of the world, as it was the 6,000th anniversary of Adam's creation. Exactly 1,000 years was to pass for each day of the creation week. This prophecy also failed.

The current estimate is that the end of the world as we know it will happen precisely 6000 years after the creation of Eve. 9 There is no way of knowing when this happened.

More details on the WTS predictions.

Science is god. What we learn about science comes from scientists, scientists are humans, humans kill eachother and never do anything right.

You dont know science is god because the people preaching science are naive, they are humans.

Humans kill eachother over the bible and always have, and yet during it all they sit amongst themselves and still have doubt of its power. That my friend is a contradiction. The bible talks of science more than a scientist will ever be able to do.
Science is gods skin . ___________ So look and tell me again, what strikes wonder into you.

sounds like from your info, 6000 years from the creation of eve is what i have to say just as much as wha tyou have to say.

Eve is a metephore, the first group of animals to be evolved into being human/female.

Sounds like what is being said here is, precisely 6,000 years after the creation of the first humans, armageddon will happen.

Sounds to me like "precisely" 2026. its 2005.
