discuss if he wrong or right, any mistranlation?
For me it's a whole page of repeating verses/words but saying nothing.
Few examples:
Quote•• The solution is simple: "Do not follow them" — that is, the false Christs, whose message often includes the ear-tingling "The time is near!"
That just rephrasing a few verses. A solution would be an exact method to pinpoint who "them" are.
Quote•• Do NOT be FRIGHTENED, Jesus said, by awesome events in the end times (or any other times).
Here the author repeats the words/verses that there will be signs and we don't have to fear.
Quote• The 9.2 Alaska earthquake in 1964 ("great earthquakes") did NOT mean it was the end.
• The killer tsunamis in Asia recently do NOT necessarily mean the end is near — "the end will not come right away", even after numerous cataclysmic events.
Then the author lists a few of thes signs and correctly states that for example the 1964 earhquakes did not signal the end times. That's easy to conclude because we are still here. But again the author doesn't even attempt to pinpoint a method to filter out the true signs.
So the whole article is nothing more that stating "I don't know"

I know but it sad because if I was there in 1964 earthquake and die there, it is the end for me lol.
What's your view on the article ID?
Do you agree with it? Are there a few points you disagree with? I ask because I perhaps overlooked a weird claim in that article. Basicly I agree with the article. There are a lot of things I don't know; just like the author of the article. But when I started reading the article I got the impression I would get an answer or at least a solid view on certain questions. Have I overlooked those answers?
