Sounds perfectly reasonable to me, and 'fiction' a very apt description. What some of your confederates will swallow in the name of Bible prophecy simply beggars belief. Must be the same group of ppl who will check their dictionaries to confirm whether the word 'gullible' has been removed from them, as announced by some practical jokers.
At last this pile of worthless doggy do doos finds its true spiritual resting place - the bonfire of all vanities, for even landfill is now apparently too good for it. It remains to be seen how much longer the belief itself will survive. May it also one day go the same way.
