To: weegie; risk

The Scottish people are very well aware of the pro - Europe stance of the SNP. The Scottish people are generally much more pro EU than the English

Frankly that statement is scary, but it fits a historically dominant Scottish idea (but dormant in the days of the Empire) that it felt more in soldarity with france than England. Now isn't it interesting that the descendents of Scottish migrants to America today are the most strident anti-frogs? (most Americans have tints of Scottish ancestry one way or another, but it was the South with particularly strong Scottish ties)

But here's a puzzle. we all know the Bible prophesises that before Jesus returns, there will be a revived Roman Empire which will come out of Europe or Europe-Mediterrenean or the West-Mediterrenean and the Antichrist will come out of this structure. I can't figure out how today's relativist, pacifist, and wimpy socialist Euros will come out and support someone in which the Bible says will trust in nothing but only in materials and military prowness?

Oh that's easy. The Bible [or those particular scriptures] is simply swept aside as a fairy tale or a scenario that has long ago passed us all.

A. There is no God [save Man himself].
B. There is no Heaven or Hell [save tolerant heaven and intolerant hell].
B. The only serious religion is that of politics.

2 Timothy 3;

1 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God. Having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them...

...always learning but never able to acknowledge the truth. Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so also these men oppose the truth. Men of depraved minds, who, as far as the faith is concerned, are rejected. But they will not get very far because, as in the case of those men, their folly will be clear to everyone.
