Are you a pre-tribulationist or a post-tribulationist? :)

Wavering. The interpretation that forms the basis of Left Behind was virtually unknown before the mid-19th century, and I've always found the early church to be a better guide to Biblical interpretation than much later movements.

Not saying that either pre-trib, post-trib (or neither) is true. All that's important is that I believe God and remain watchful.

(And only buy new Left Behind books when they're old and have come down in price, 'cos the standard of storytelling plumbs new depths with each book in the series - what was once an original idea is now a very worn franchise).

Now, back on topic ... I wanna be part of an SG team! Atomic, d'you fancy teaming up to kick some Goauld a$$? ;) :D

Pre-trib for me thanks, although I'd love to be proven wrong :)

I'm not in the "pretrib" group so don't fully agree with the theology but I would not want to live in the scenario described in those books.


I wouldn't want to live in some fiction - where are the toilets, running water, showers, baths? Where are the Christian churches that aren't Catholic or weird?



As I am, I couldn't live in the more practical environments, I don't have the manual skills and don't have the inclination to decapitate my opponents.


As for the "future", it's normally too dystopian in some way, even if it doesn't appear to be.
