When Jesus comes again he will come not as a lamb to slaughter as he came the first time, he will be coming as a conqueror to judge the unsaved by their own words spoken during their lifetime. His enemies will be kaput, finis, done for... Hallelujah!

Revelation: :11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. 12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. 13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. 14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. 15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. 16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS

Does this sound like he's coming back to say: Ats-a nice-a. Yous-a been-a good-a boy-a.

HE'S COMING BACK AS A CONQUERING KING AND WILL DESTROY HIS ENEMIES.
HE'S NOT COMING BACK AS MR NICE GUY.

In Norse mythology, Ragnarok or Ragnarök (Fate of the Gods) is the final battle waged between the Æsir, led by Odin, and the various forces of the giants or Jötnar, including Loki, followed by the destruction of the world and its subsequent rebirth.

What seems eschatologically unique about Ragnarök is that the gods already know through prophecy what is going to happen — when the event will occur, who will be slain by whom, and so forth. They even realize that they are powerless to prevent it but nevertheless bravely and defiantly face their bleak destiny. This is thought by some scholars to represent the ordered world (the Æsir) eventually succumbing to the unavoidable forces of chaos and entropy (the giants)."

Yggdrasil, the World Tree, will groan and shudder, shaking from root to limb, and nothing will then be unafraid on earth or in the heavens or in Hel. The dwarves, those "princes of the mountain wall", [9] will lament before their doorways of stone. All the Æsir and einherjar will put on their war gear and advance onto the field to meet the giants. Odin will ride in front of the vast host [10] wearing a golden helmet, a shining coat of mail and brandishing his spear Gungnir.

The Prose Edda, put in writing some two centuries later by Snorri Sturluson, describes in detail what takes place before, during, and after the battle.

Platonic idealism is the theory that the substantive reality around us is only a reflection of a higher truth. That truth, Plato argued, is the abstraction. He believed that ideas were more real than things. He developed a vision of two worlds: a world of unchanging ideas and a world of changing physical objects.

For example, a particular tree, with a branch or two missing, possibly alive, possibly dead, and with the initials of two lovers carved into its bark, is distinct from the abstract form of Tree-ness. A Tree is the ideal that each of us holds that allows us to identify the imperfect reflections of trees all around us.

I took the liberty to copy and paste a couple of items to save me the hassle of typing everything from scratch. One from the older religion that existed up here once upon a time. And the other is even older and more approached with philosophical reasoning. The later vanished completely for a long period of time after the fall of the roman empire. Seems like enlightenment dissapeared entirely with the fall of the romans, the catholic church that took over kept people at a state of unawareness like the iron curtain in soviet. No wonder this part of our history was called the Dark age.

If people would have been allowed to think for themselves without forced to conviction of a certain faith. One could wonder how the world would have looked like today. People like Plato who thought freely, tried to explain the world and everything in it through other means than simply sticking to blind faith. This was much thanks to the tolerant religion that existed during that time. It was the same thing up here during the days of the old religion, there were people who simply kept away from religion all together. Like the greeks they simply lived by the rule that you be judged by your behaviour, not by your faith. Which is a much more reasonable way of living.

The Muslim and Christian together with the Jewish faith all originate from the far east, with very simillar traits. Condemning, intolerant, prejudiced and highly insecure followers. As opposed to the western religions who actually, and ironically (when studying the holy scriptures of any side) always kept to the tolerant and peaceful attitude that the eastern ones only promised and never kept. Muslims have not always been violent as today, but more semi-violent. It was actually once, one of the greatest cultures in the world, their values seen through our eyes of course can always be questioned. The christian and jewish faiths and followers on the other hand have always been deceitful, lying and taking every oppurtunity possible to reach their agendas. To spread their religion to other people. And like the muslims as well they all been branding those who wont accept their faith as heathens. These days the spoilt christians are laughably calling unfaithful people "unsaved".

It's all bullshit though. The higher up on the ladder the more you gain in the religious faiths, while the followers are the only ones who truly believe and work to spread the word of their god/s. The exact same thing as in politics, different sides promises different things, and it's up to you to believe it or not.


It's all about self interest in the end, no matter how you turn it.
