Their goal is to bring about the end of days so that they can all be saved and go to heaven. They are literally trying to end the world.

This is not an exaggeration. They literally don't care about the world because "we're all going to heaven anyway." I have relatives that have said as much.

Like sometimes I can envy the people who believe this shit, how simple a life you must live... So carefree and understanding of others, to let people live their own lives how they want knowing in the end we all get to go to some magical place forever...

This reason is why I laugh about Israel lining up behind the American right wing. Like you guys know what Israel is for according to the bible, right?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I have no clue, because never reading the bible thoroughly because of being an atheist and all. I did a quick search and found something about being model nation under god and fully embracing the Messiah as a nation. But not sure what you refer to.

Something along the lines of the second coming of Christ happens (or first coming of the Messiah if your are Jewish) when a major war breaks out in the Middle East around Israel. It is related to Christian Zionism.

The problem is of course this has already happened numerous times in history. So they are basically full of shit.
