    Daniel 11:40, talking about the end times and other end time prophecies, do you still believe in them and do you think anyone really can understand them?

    no - too far-fetched. See Farkels critique of Daniel

    JH,
    if you have an open ended prophecy then probability alone will ensure that it occurs at some point.

    I'm with stilla. Nobody can really understand them, ask different people (religions) and they will give a different explanation. So no, I stopped worrying about them.

    Finding people who believe biblical prophecy is true is a great way to tap into followers of ends-time religions. "The sky is falling," and they need to have their religious hardhats ready. Why would a loving god come up with such a crazy way to guide his/her children?

    No! That would be stupid.

    It’s a little too hard for me to take prophesy seriously after all the failed attempts by the WBTS. I suppose that I need to read the verses again without the aid of the WT and see what I think.

    If prophesy isn't serious, then the bible isn't either?

    No way.

    That's not up to anyone to decide for yourself but you.
