Other than a Time and Date of course. As I said though I think Christ will return I also suspect its possible that not everyone will feel the event.

He told me he had a couple of errands to do after lunch but promised he’d be back in time for the 2:00 meeting on Twelve.

Really? He also came into the music store I work at and bought an accordian. I thought about “I sold Jesus an Accordian” business cards but I don’t like to show off. 🙂

Sir, if I had not dealt with community college students off their medication in the past, I would not believe it either. My guess is that he subscribes to “StarGods” [[http://stargods.org/](http://stargods.org/) ]. Yes, I have run into multiple cases of anti-depressent cases running to a system very much like MSWAS [and ‘Stargods’] prescribes.

Take a look at this [serious amongst themselves] [Statement of Faith](http://stargods.org/Statement_of_Faith.org). You tell me if it looks familiar.

Sounds interesting! I wonder if there’s a sign-up sheet anywhere…

Bugger it. :smack: Well, maybe I could gloss over that particular issue on the application form - demons approve of that sort of thing, don’t they? 🙂

. . . But it says nothing about the date of the Second Coming.

Also, this “reptilian bloodlines” and the “Illuminati” business – is David Icke ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David\_Icke](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Icke)) part of this group?
