Hey old buddy...I was wanting to make known that Jesus pointedly told us that if the report goes out that the messiah is out in the desert... Don't go out....ya prolly knew this huh
Scripture contains an unhistorical element in-woven with the history, in order that the worthlessness of the latter may drive us to seek the spiritual meaning.
Genesis is not about GOD its about you.
Christianity is not about Jesus its about you.

There is no second coming! Can be argued that there was not even a first. Religon is made made! So obvious it is man made!
Amazes me that people still believe this

And what if you're wrong?
Seriously - ask yourself.
What if you're wrong?
Pretty simple to get off that horse and cart and without any proof that He doesn't exist?
Take the chance He does - because He does...
You'll be much better off in your life believing in Christ - and you'll be infinitely better off in eternity with your choice placing you in His side.

You are taking Paul's words out of context. Paul reminds them that the Lord will come like a thief in the night in verse 2. Paul's only pointing out that when it happens, they shouldn't be surprised by it because they have already been told that it was coming. Verse 1 shows that Paul didn't feel the need to even address the "times and the seasons". In verse 4, Paul says that the day won't OVERTAKE them as a thief.

...Thus "Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven," is an astrological event that will depict the coming of the son of man.

I'll just take one of the words you used to describe God and we'll go from there.
'Ignorant'... Your opinion is God, is ignorant.
Ok, fine. Now, what about you?
The smartest man in the world (I forgot his name) has only possibly 2% of ALL knowledge.
Of the rest he is, ignorant.
What about you? How much knowledge do you have?
So if you don't know EVERYTHING, how can you say, unless you're being 'willfully' ignorant - there is no God.
And if there is, He is ignorant?
Where do you get this opinion? Because that's all it is. An opinion.
The rest of your insults? I can't imagine why you seem so angry about something you don't even believe in, but I wish you'd take time to figure out what He is really all about. Believe me, best cure for anger ever.

the 'sign' already happened... the Son-of-Man 'sign' happened during the Virgo Great-Sign in Heaven during September 2017...
the son-of-man sign was on 9 september 2017 when a 1.300 long cylindrical object (oddly shaped stone) was slung by the Sun into a interstellar course towards the constellation Pegasus at some 44 miles-per-second velocity
