I haven't read the book you quoted from, but you did say it was liberal propaganda, I believe? So, it is going to paint Christian society in the worst light possible.

yes the govt should punish evil, just don't think capital punishment for everything is a great idea.

I had never considered the possible rise of a Christian society, that parallels Muslim Sharia law, and I was just very curious and wanted to talk about it.

I know that you are a theonomist and it is the one thing about you that baffles me and I wanted to talk about that.

Also, I don't relish the idea of losing the right to vote, speak in in any sort of public discourse, have any type of money or property, and who knows what else as a female.

Don't believe me? Look at what's new at the theatre.

A new time has began just go look at what the women wore as outfits to the Grammy's. Katy Perry dressed like a angel, Rihanna had a dress with crosses all over it. This false church is going to start blending with all the churches of the world. Islam, Buddhists, and yes the Jews. Even helping build a temple wouldn't seem out of place. I know the pope was against it. But there will be a shift.

The man of lawlessness has been revealed for over a 1000 years. The great falling away has happened the end is near.

watching the video now, you believe post trib rapture?

For example the students during the Evergreen college fiasco were far left, but they did not believe in equality or inclusion.
And I do not believe you could term the Inquisition as either left or right wing.
Was Hugo Chavez left or right wing?

Seriously?
Is that why Bernie Sanders, Sean Penn, Oliver Stone, Danny Glover and Jesse Jackson supported him?
Chavez was a total leftist.

I am really puzzled about your entire point in this thread.
Antichrist right wing or left wing?

People are leaving Venezuela, you can't even buy toilet paper.

Typical, I guess it went the way of when you threatened us that you were going to take time off to fast, pray, and get soaked in the word.

I thought it would be interesting to consider how a 2 Thess 2 man of sin could arise.

Atwood is a Canadian Christ hater, period. She wouldn't know the Bible if Jimmy Swaggart weeped it to her.

It's not that I think the death penalty is morally wrong. Government has the right to impose the death penalty. However, for the sake of the few who committed no crime worthy of death, I don't support the death penalty as it stands in our current justice system.

You are amazingly ignorant, and never ever, actually think ANYTHING through before you post.
