Free Speech, and idiots.

You people who keep using this as an example of when freedom of speech should be restricted please STOP using it!

Shouting "fire" in a crowded theater is not an example of using free speech. Free speech is about expressing opinions, sharing ideas, and telling stories.

This "example" is just trouble making. It is the same as setting off an alarm, only using one's voice instead of a device.

Saying "Somebody ought to burn this theater down." is using free speech.

Saying "I'll give you $500 to burn this place down." is conducting business, and the business is a crime.

That said, I remind you all the free speech is usually worth every penny...

Freaking out about the end of the world

I don't understand why you Revelationists are always freaking out about these being the "end times."

So, what if it is? What's to be afraid of?

I would think that God told you about all these things so that you wouldn't worry about them as they happen. Like a doctor telling you what to expect during a medical procedure. "These are the things that will happen, and it'll be okay, we're expecting that..."

So, signs of the end times should just be more evidence to you that God knows what he's doing, and has a handle on things.

You do believe that, don't you? That God knows what He's doing?

Then settle down! If you really DO believe in your Bible, as you say you do, there is no point in getting all het up about things. You can't stop things like Gay Marriage, because it's a sign of the end times, and it's inevitable.

If anything, instead of freaking out, you should be feeling pretty smug.
