[Esaias]

Why do so many people who claim to believe we are literally going to have the mark of the beast in the next year and a half not live as though they actually believed that?

Still selling books on Amazon (using credit cards, of course)? I mean, seriously, why aren't these people holed up on a farm somewhere so they can at least try to grow their own food to survive the 3 and a half year tribulation/mark of the beast thing? A church has the prophecy teacher come in, tell everyone it's all going down within the next couple of years, then next week they are doing hotdogs and whatever for "youth service", meanwhile they are still FULLY hooked up with the banking credit and commerce system that they supposedly think is the machinery of the Beast and the precursor to the mark...?

I mean, seriously, you guys don't actually believe what you claim to believe. Your actions and lifestyle PROVE that you don't. It's just all in your head as an intellectual exercise in fantasy live action role playing. It's literally fantasy football.
