Rapture Ready! Quotes

“To say the Israelis were caught off guard was like saying the Great Wall of China is long” is not just a random bad sentence, it’s LaHaye and Jenkins’s idea of Pulitzer-winning prose.”

“We Jews like to believe Judaism can stand on it's own, not just a pillar of Christianity.”

“To a Christian, the dastardly liberals are not so much villains as victims. It's not their fault they're possessed by demons. But if I felt a slight diminishing of hostility, I also saw any hope of mutual accommodation go up in a blast of sulfurous smoke...these days, much of what liberals really anguish about behind closed doors is how to find common ground with people of faith. And now I realized that for at least some people, common ground will never be possible because they don't object to specific ideas that can be reframed or adjusted. They object to Satan, whose bidding we are doing. They may not hate us - they may believe they love us - but they hate him, and they won't negotiate with him either. We want to persuade them, reason with them, listen to them, and accommodate them. They want to save us. It's not even the same playing field.”
