It clocks out at about half the length of "Kingdom Come" and contains a few silly capers, a few heartfelt moments, an Artificial Valkyria scene, and amateur rocketry. Oh, and cookies, because this is Left Behind after all.spiritplumberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11103152769766633350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882696241406815138.post-91597388298097157072016-10-23T19:39:50.575-07:002016-10-23T19:39:50.575-07:00First, a quibble:
Everyone under the age of 100 i...First, a quibble:<br /><br />Everyone under the age of 100 is considered a child in this new world, and we apparently have slowed aging to match. So... is there no more licensing to run a business? If there is (or will be soon, as governments try to curtail these evil businesses), how are TOL supporters opening them? For that matter, how are they getting ANYTHING if these businesses are being solely run by and for the equivalent of teens? I know there's this perception that teenagers are susceptible to all sorts of temptation, but to get those temptations there is generally a supply line that is almost entirely adults. Outside of sex or alcohol (hi local wine stream!) there's really not a lot they can supply for themselves without complicit adults, and there are no complicit adults because any adult that would be complicit is dead.<br /><br />I'm also curious if 100 as the new age of accountability is supposed to be equivalent to the one that determined if a kid was taken at the Rapture. If so, wouldn't that mean that someone who died before their 100th bday was automatically Glorified? Because imagine the can of worms THEN! Parents of a 99 year old TOL killing them and asking Zod's forgiveness, because of course they'll be forgiven and their baby will be Glorified and won't even hold it against them because they'll know their parents saved them! Or the Black Market trading in something lethal and painless for people to take the night before their 100th. Party until the evening, drink a toast to everyone, take the drug, wake up in a new body! And best part, won't ever have to worry about missing out or DTs or cravings or temptation of any sort, because Glorified bodies are perfect and Glorified minds no longer deal with that.Lodrelhaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04638763062373142739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882696241406815138.post-49763863593269349182016-10-09T12:44:30.902-07:002016-10-09T12:44:30.902-07:00http://emlia.org/pmwiki/pub/web/LeftBeyond.Cendril...http://emlia.org/pmwiki/pub/web/LeftBeyond.Cendrillon.html<br /><br />So here's my attempt at Cendrillon's story... we don't really know much about her other than she's one of the oldest post-Event children, has been banned from straying more than 300 miles from whrever CoT is, and is named after Cinderella.<br /><br />So I wrote her into a nerdy kid with a bit of hero worship for Neil Armstrong.spiritplumberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11103152769766633350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882696241406815138.post-2077199457277484122016-09-28T13:39:29.909-07:002016-09-28T13:39:29.909-07:00Well, either the pre-trib kids grow up and make a ...Well, either the pre-trib kids grow up and make a moral choice… or they never develop the ability to do so.<br /><br />Which would be quite consistent with LB!God as we've met It.<br /><br />I picture <i>every single one</i> of those kids saying in unison "I remember my childhood… I loved my family, adored my mother…"<br /><br />Yeah, this LB!God is apparently creating full synthetic adult personalities and stamping them onto the kids. I can only assume it makes their brains taste better or something. But that simply isn't compatible with their making their own choices about God.<br /><br />What it means that people can appear good but not really be it… what this means is that <i>you</i>, dear RTC reader, you <i>don't know that you are really saved</i>. You're still being Tempted, aren't you? Maybe you didn't say the Prayer sincerely enough! You need more help from your pastor!<br /><br />I want a belt-fed tent-spike cannon for Jael.Firedrakenoreply@blogger.com
