> One of many terrifying aspects of this is that he's in the group that thinks Armageddon is going to happen in his lifetime and, what do you know? He can make that happen if he really feels like it.

This is pretty crazy especially when you consider that "No one knows the day or hour when these things will happen". Jesus is saying that not even the angels know when the world is going to end, and now a bunch of people not only say they know when this will happen, but even go so far as to say that you can cause such an event by bombing countries and somehow advancing that plan? It's not just a matter of just vs injust war, it feels more like an attempt from a group of people, who claim to believe in God, to try to force God's hand and speed up the process.

This is pretty <strikethrough>crazy</strikethrough> blasphemous. Not even Jesus Himself is said to know, and I can't think of a more arrogant, literally blasphemous thing than putting oneself in God's shoes, trying to "make Armageddon happen," like Hegseth and Company are doing.

Exactly. I was trying to put it in general terms so even atheists or people from other religions could get the point, but I totally agree.
