This was just a random thought I had today:
Is it possible that everything that has happened/is happening that relates to last days prophecy really be a clever trick by Satan in an attempt to fool believers? We all know that his greatest trick is to imitate the real thing, and what better way than to trick us into believing that our blessed hope was a lie and there is no god by having everything play out like in the Bible (as closely as he can anyway) only Jesus doesn't return?
I really don't think it would be possible, but was hoping for some comments.

I'd like to say doubt is a good sign with you people, but this sounds a wee bit Too Good To Be True.
Other than that, have you had your meds today?
Typical. If it's what you want, god did it. If it isn't what you want, satan did it.
Giving up responsibility for even your own thoughts is a very disturbed way to live.
Or... what if God is making it appear like Satan is making it look like the end times are coming true, to test the faith of his believers?

WHAT WILL YOU DO THEN???

This is the only type of thought fundies have.
"Is it possible that everything that has happened/is happening that relates to last days prophecy really be a clever trick by Satan in an attempt to fool believers?"
Are you starting to catch on? Are you starting to understand that random ordinary events do not herald the end of the world? Now take the next step: There is no Satan. You are being fooled by your own pastor and your own mental illness, not by an invisible boogeyman.
Imitate the real thing?
*gaaaaaaasp*
GOD IS SATAN
What if Satan wrote the Bible himself, and only made it look like it was inspired by God?
What if it were some practical-joke-loving-yet-neutral third entity who created the concepts of God and Satan just to screw with people's minds? (*Note: This entity would not necessarily have been the Creator of the Universe, just an existence alongside our own)
Since there can be any number of what-ifs here, I'll just go with the idea that no explanation involving the supernatural is necessary at all.
I happen to know that the KJV is actually Satan's work to imitate real scripture, and it is the best fundie bait ever devised. Those foolish ignorant meat bags will follow their dark master into the stinking pits, even as they loudly proclaim their spiritual superiority over all others.
Wow... so close to escaping fundie-ism. We may have a red-pill situation here, get ready to help with the unplugging the copper-top!

This was just a random thought I had today:
While a mellon sings mutely, presenting when xerox machines race in the popemobile, an obituary dines angrily, cringing if pirates fiendishly run amok.
I like my random thought better than yours.
"Is it possible that everything that has happened/is happening that relates to last days prophecy really be a clever trick by Satan in an attempt to fool believers?"
Apply that idea to your Bible, and your God in general, and you will realize that it is just as likely that you are adherents to an ideology that Satan deceives humanity with as reality being exactly as the Bible describes.
"This was just a random thought I had today"
Of course. I mean, you wouldn't want RR to know that you're consistently thinking this through. That could get you banned... or worse!
"Is it possible that everything that has happened/is happening that relates to last days prophecy really be a clever trick"Yes! Yes! You finally understand. I'm so proud, I might just cry.
"by Satan"You saw the finish line and made a sharp right into a brick wall. *headdesk*
... only Jesus doesn't return?
Tricked you into thinking there ever was a jesus,
Your blessed hope is indeed a lie, but Satan has fuckall to do with it. Believers have managed to fool themselves without any help from non-existent external sources whatsoever, and nothing will change for as long as you don't want it to change.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
