There's something like 400, 600 odd prophecies that have to be fulfilled beforehand? We still have like...150 to go?

When some of the big ones start happening (treaty with Israel) then I'll start praying :P
I know you're probably joking but a lot of people out there are like that. For them to start all of a sudden praying and following the bible because they feel the end times are near is like someone being a serial killer then praying to Jesus to save him on the execution chair. Very pathetic and flat out wrong. I don't care what the bible says no God of infinite wisdom would be foolish enough to reward a mass murderer who for 1 second pretends to follow Christ over someone who follows Christ whole heartedly their whole life and denounces him 1 second before their death.

If you examine why "they" would setup the rules like this it becomes very evident. Ask yourself what can be gained by claiming a mass murderer can repent and be saved? Pretty easy conclusion, this is the only way to try to control this murderer and give him a chance to stop commiting ghastly crimes. If you say, "Oh you're fucked you're gonna burn in hell for eternity" then the mass murderer would be like, "well I better get my money's worth and kill more." So while this strange rule does have a reason and desired outcome, it only works on people who cannot reason and examine things properly, thankfully for the writers that is most of the population.
