I assume this will remain the thing he will tell his children and grandchildren on his deathbed (that is, if he has any, after all the belief in the incoming rapture doesn´t let it apear wise to have offspring ;) )

Fundies keep screaming that Jesus is going to return any minute now, really, cuz the bible says so.
Jesus is supposed to come back any minute now for the last 2000 years, when are they going to learn that he isn't coming back, because he never existed in the first place.

You missed the connection. Jesus, if he existed, came and left 2 thousand years ago.

Probably a reference to the
Marantha Cult.
Either that, or it's like yelling KAHN! Which as an atheist futurist, I am known to do on occasion.
KAHN!

"...the end is closer now than it was at the beginning!"
Er, quite. Isn't that always the way?
"All in all, those watching are a small minority compared to those who either aren't watching or don't even expect Christ to return in our generation."
How unwittingly true. They're an insane, feeble-minded minority, too. No wonder they feel persecuted.

"a rapture-focused mind will be even more vigilant about sharing the good news!"
Sadly, this is very true. If only having a 'rapture-focused mind' necessitated a vow of silence, everyone would be happier!

The only question that remains is what flavor of Kool-Aid they'll use.

Whatever. RR is a cesspool of depression, mental illness and ignorance. This Ready2Fly08 fundie is no surprise to me.

"the end is closer now than it was at the beginning! "
That would be true if time flowed from the past to the future. Since time runs backwards, you are wrong.

The end is closer now that it was at the beginning?
I nominate that for the "Non-Statement of the Year Award."

"...the end is closer now than it was at the beginning!"
Glad you cleared that up! I always thought the end was somewhere in the middle and the beginning came later.

"the end is closer now than it was at the beginning!"
z - x2 > z - x1 where x2 > x1!!
As you can see, the movement of time proves that the end is near... Or far... Or ... A long ways out... But we know that time is moving!

"What is maranatha?"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maranatha
It means something like "O Lord, come" or "Come, O Lord".
According to Wikipedia, "it is a prayer for the early return of Christ."
