Convert or die when Jesus comes is a big part of their end times belief

My husband has some stories that go back 60 years to his childhood and right up to the present.

New person befriends him in the lunchroom -- discovers he's Jewish -- wants to be BFFs -- talks about Jeeeeeesus -- discovers hubby has no interest in conversion-- now-former BFF then informs hubby he is destined for eternal damnation -- friendship ends.

Happens just often enough that one can detect a pattern. Rabid fundies like Michelle Bachmann are not really friends of the Jews.

I grew up in the South, surrounded by Fundies and went to an ultra conservative private school, and in school and in Sunday school we were taught about what heaven looked like. The whole streets of gold and stuff. But there was something else. We were also taught that every person has a "mansion" in heaven and the better you lived your life (read: converted the most people) the better our celestial real estate was. I wish I was kidding. I don't know if this is taught in all Christian circles but where I grew up it was.

an hour's an hour, moron. Always was, always will be.

“We recognize the shortness of the hour,” Bachmann said, “and that’s why we as a remnant want to be faithful in these days and do what it is that the Holy Spirit is speaking to each one of us, to be faithful in the Kingdom and to help bring in as many as we can — even among the Jews — share Jesus Christ with everyone that we possibly can because, again, He’s coming soon.”


"we as a remnant" "faithful in these days" Such nonsense.

Is this a problem?

Don't most Scientologists try to covert others to Scientology?

All religions seek to convert others to their ways.

until people who are utterly detached from reality stop being called sane just because they can manage to insert the words "gawd" or "jebus" into whatever powerfully hallucinogenic or delusional rant they spew out.

They called Francis E. Dec, Esq., a looney but he was not one bit crazier than Bachmann or any other fundy:



How is that one bit crazier than anything vomited forth by Carson, Bachmann or any random fundy nutjob?
