Perhaps if you could learn to address people with a little more respect and a little less condescension, you wouldn't come up against what you perceive as “tactics.”

Re-read my post. Condescending? Which part? The verses quoted?

[>>I always chuckle at those who are predicting that the end is near.<<

Chuckle if you will but look first at what Jesus said just prior to the quote you used.

Matthew 24:33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

>>I’ll stick with what Jesus said.<<

You might want to compare your words above with Jesus words in verse 33 then.]

The points I added were only cautionary.
