And the hypocrite left always points out Christian teachers who miss prophetic doomsdays.

There is a spacecraft trailing Comet Hale–Bopp that will take us away from the certain doom that awaits us. Really, it’s true. Marshall Applewhite said so.

They do this in order to draw the attention of the sheep away from the obvious failures and self-dealing of the ruling class.

I have friends who are into You Tube “prophets” who are saying that September 24, 2022 will have power outages, earthquakes, floods, wars, and all sorts of things.

On September 24, 2022 I plan on putting up a bunch of apple pies in the deep freeze for the winter.

Actually there are no Christian prophetic doomsdays. Jesus himself of the day and the hour no one will know. Any attempt to specify a doomsday date is not Christian.
