When is the 2nd Coming of Christ coming? I thought it was supposed to be year 2000? But it hasn't happened - is it going to happen if so when? If not will once and for all Christians stop believing in the Bible?

never

Give me a couple of minutes then we can perhaps try again, you got me over-excited at the first time I came!

If were are being pedantic -- Lets not leave out other religious people and what they believe...

Muslims for an example also believe that he will return

Don't get drawn in, treat him like the bored/boring poster he really is.

All he wants is reaction.

Who doesn't want a reaction it's why we post isn't it to get feedback?

Idiot

it's not about being drawn in this is a genuine question! Surely if Jesus doesn't come back by a specific time then it's proof that the bible is baloney and the guarantee is proven - null and void - except God won't be giving out refunds!

If Jesus isn't coming back why are they all still flocking to see the new pope and why are the bible bashers in the USA banging on about this and that and so on -

Why do they carry on believing something that doesn't exist?

Then again he can only comeback, if he was here in first place.

Not being a church goer myself. You could class me as agnostic, I don't remember there being a exact date in the Bible stating thesecond coming.
Of course you and others may have a specificdate, but thats all heresay.

Where are you on the Spectrum Of Theistic Probability?

Strong theist. 100 per cent probability of God. In the words of C.G. Jung: "I do not believe, I know."
De facto theist. Very high probability but short of 100 per cent. "I don't know for certain, but I strongly believe in God and live my life on the assumption that he is there."
Leaning towards theism. Higher than 50 per cent but not very high. "I am very uncertain, but I am inclined to believe in God."
Completely impartial. Exactly 50 per cent. "God's existence and non-existence are exactly equiprobable."
Leaning towards atheism. Lower than 50 per cent but not very low. "I do not know whether God exists but I'm inclined to be skeptical."
De facto atheist. Very low probability, but short of zero. "I don't know for certain but I think God is very improbable, and I live my life on the assumption that he is not there."
Strong atheist. "I know there is no God, with the same conviction as Jung knows there is one."

I would say I am around the 6. Perhaps a 5.8
