But won't, as this kind of 'nobility' to me seems like giving up individualism and the abilty to think rationally; having this exchanged for grovelling to 'authority'.
Could you, once more, try to keep a decent standard...even when there are no rational arguments available. Character analyses are of NO relevance to this thread.

Why does speculation as to current times and biblical prophecy present a "main problem?" This is the Religion, Faith, and Theology forum is it not?

When a conversation goes into a direction that you dislike you accuse me of playing mind games.
The only mind games being played here are in your own head.
