This Curtis fellow does not understand dispensational premillenialism at all, he is arguing against a non-existance position ... and so are you.
We view daily events that happen today as "the beginning of birth pangs" ... nothing more, not fulfillment of prophecy. Will those prophetic fulfillments come in the future? Yes they will ... we just see the stage being set for their fulfillment. Could be hundreds of years from now ... could be tomorrow.
Hmm...I was introduced into dispensationalism (Bible Baptist Churches) back in 1973. But after all the lessons they gave me in "Sunday and Wednesday" classes, telling me to examine the Bible to see if it was so, my examination led me out of that faulty school of thought. Later examination of the origins of dispensationalism intensified my conclusions that it was really wrong theology. It was sensationalism magnified, not Biblical. Signs were its main proof...has that been changed?

I see...the name has just been changed, not the idea.
