    What i’m not getting is why these Christians in the US want the last judgement to arrive at all.

    The way they seem to treat everyone, with cruelty, a cold heart, and lots of violence, is basically a guarantee they’re not gonna go to paradise. Why, then, do they wish for the last judgement?

      Right, imagine standing in front of God and saying “Yeah I did all those horrible things since it was a sign of the end times”.

      Like why do they think that somehow qualifies them getting into heaven.

      Even best case scenario, you still have to deal with essentially the apocalypse on Earth before you even reach the point of judgment.

        They think their god basically works like Trump. He’s an asshole, but if you can stay on his good side you’ll get crumbs.
