Oh you're right. They needed to invent the word president and prime
minister in the greek language to allow prophetic utterances to be
effective.
You know what I think? I think God (through an Angel) showed John EXACTLY
what was going to happen, and mixed with it symbolism, and John wrote down
what he could. How else would a 1st century person record seeing a
warplane, than "an iron breasted dragon with the sound of a thousand horses
on its wings" or a nuclear bomb than fire, or the cloud from a nuclear bomb
as "a locust swarm given the authority to scourge mankind"
And remember, the prophetic utterances were witnessed, the only words came
from the angel. So if John saw a leader, and thought it was a fucking
king, you are saying that this somehow invalidated everything? What kind
of a conservative are you? Is religion a matter of convenience, that you
use to comfort yourself, and to rally people against gay marriage, but if
anything bad is ever uttered that too is ignored?

OMG why am I arguing with you? Ever heard of Fallujah? Even if you
believed the theories that chemical weapons were not used against the Iraqi
people - being completely ignorant of the conspiracy surrounding it tells me
a lot about your interest and knowledge about the these things that you are
choosing to argue with me.

No you're right - him thinking himself god is a better analogy. Who else
to decide the fate of the entire world. Condemn North Korea for testing
weapons (the like of which we recently tested) Condemn Sadaam for using
chemical weapons (then use WP against the people of Fallujah, ironically in
Iraq!) Defy the united nations and declare an illegal war, over his
daddy's grudge? Threaten the use of nuclear weapons against Iran over R&D?
Bush LIED to start a war against a helpless country - causing hundreds of
thousands of Iraqis to die - something he dismisses as collatoral dammage,
and says the war was justified because they "ousted a bad leader" (ignoring
lies about a Sadaam funded nuclear weapons program, hundreds of billions of
wasted dollars). But if 10 Americans die from a suicide bomber he has a
fucking conniption fit. I cannot hold in high esteem someone that feels he
has the right to judge that one person's life is more valuable than another
person's life.

The right to vote doesn't mean a whole lot when your entire country's
infrastructure has gone to shit. There are looters, rioters, violence.
Bagdad and Fallujah are under occupation, and there is still fighting going
on everywhere. It is hard to get gas, people who have electricity at all,
don't have it for 24 hours a day.

I have seen various news sources of independant reporters going around
talking to people, and the consensus seems to be that life was better under
Sadaam than it is now.

I am not associated with any church - because I do not believe that any
church holds true to the ideals set forth by the first century christians or
what Christ taught. Being christian merely means believing in Jesus as
god's son (and the way to salvation)

No. I believe that if Jereseleum begins to fall, bush will blame Tehran
and use his 90 day presidential authority to over - ride the senate to
launch nuclear weapons against Iran. The unjustified, and ridiculous use
of nuclear weapons against Iran will provoke Iranian allies (or perhaps
spark retaliation from nuclear armed terrorists who were otherwise meant to
just be sleepers)
Remember what Osama Bin Laden said - the decision to attack the world trade
center buildings is one that made the most sense - they had considered
targetting nuclear power plants, but were concerned about the situation
getting out of hand. If nuclear weapons are being used indisciminantly
against Arabs - there would be no reason for the terrorists to refrain from
using them against us. There could be a terror cell waiting in every
large city with one of those missing "suitcase" bombs from the former soviet
union waiting only to hear the report of a nuclear attack by America on an
Arab country.
It is not THAT ridiculous.

Iran is rich and powerful - not to mention, Syria will fight alongside
Iran - and they are a powerful ally. Bush knows this, so not they are
trying to simultaniously blame Iran and Syria for the kidnapping of some
obscure soldier that I have never heard of before. It is deja vu. The
administration targets a country, tries to piss people off at them, then
goes and attacks.

Iran. If Iran rallies troops and tries to attack Isreal, or whether Isreal
flies into Iran and starts a fight is inconsequential

I find you humorous. So humanity is perfect and humans will live forever

Just like the US which is threatening to use nuclear weapons.
I think Bush's religious and megalomaniacal agenda is going to cause World
War III. He, as president has the authority to begin a nuclear war -
unless the Senate could rapidly come together to oust him as president.
War is not in our best interest either. Occupying Iraq cannot possibly
have been in our best interest. Taking over Afghanistan to try to get one
fugitive, who still eluded us was not in our best interest.
So sit back and enjoy thinking that humanity is not in danger when we have a
war happy, nuclear ready, idiot president leading the strongest military
force on earth.
