BOP, I was gonna stay out of this discussion but I just can't seem to help myself. I am somewhat "schooled in the bible" and it is my opinion that all prophecy was fulfilled in the destruction of the temple in AD 70. This has been documented by secular hisorians such as Josephus. We have been living in "the last days" ever since this event. SH
The bible makes as much or more sense in the context of space aliens as it does the being the "Word" of a god, maybe more. And I don't buy space aliens either. Yet. :-)
