The belief that all prophecies relating to the return of Christ, including those in Matthew, the rest of the Gospels, and the book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ has been discredited and debunked so many times that the word "preterist" evokes the same derision as the words "flat earth".

Dr. Mark Hitchcock effectively buried preterism so far in the ground that a replay of Noah's flood couldn't bring it to the surface. If you are interested in Biblical truth, here is a talk he gave on the facts of the false doctrine of preterism and how Scripture and historical facts blow that silly, ignorant belief into a million pieces. The message begins at about the 5:36 mark:

The first sentence should read:

The belief that all prophecies relating to the return of Christ, including those in Matthew, the rest of the Gospels, and the book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ took place in 70 AD has been discredited and debunked so many times that the word "preterist" evokes the same derision as the words "flat earth".

And, exactly, what have I said that is Preterism? Defend your views with your own words, and address what I have said and not what you have imagined. This sentence of yours does not even have a complete thought. It ends at “the belief that all...” what belief? It does not go forward from there. A word was missed.
