Frightening biblical stuff.... Arguement to convince RWers that W is satan
Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse
And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
2. And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
3. And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.
4. And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.
5. And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
6. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine......
8. .....And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him.

3. 1. That's not an argument.
2. It isn't frightening.
3. There's no satan.

14. Or God..... only Karma.....
And there is no end.....

I think that these RWers use the bible to support their beliefs, why not use their own magic to show them Bush is bad for all and everything.

4. Crown?
2. And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.


Wanna bet the crown is given to him by the Rev. Moon?

6. Oh please don't start this again.
It's an allegory, nothing else. War, Famine, Plague and Death have always been part of life. That's why the ancients wrote about it. It doesn't have to be of course. We have the knowledge and technology now to end it all other than death, however, the profiteers don't like it.

7. Sorry, it won't work because they don't care.
Even my right wing cousin says that even if * is the Anti-Christ - it's only because he's such a good "Christian".
There is no arguing with "logic" like that.
They WANT Armegeddon. They WANT this world to end. They WANT everyone who doesn't agree with them to burn in hell forever.

13. End times conditions not people....
Believers often think the passage speaks of generalities.....
