Gog and Magog
Other than the Antichrist himself (and his mark, of course), perhaps no other apocalyptic reference has been been given so many different possible interpretations by fundamentalists as the threatening specters of Gog and Magog.
Who could these amassed radical anti-Israel forces be? A Revived Communist Russia? A Fascist Nuclear Iran? An Uzbekistan Buzkashi Team? And it’s only fair to assume that the Catholics will be involved somehow or another.
Whatever Gog and Magog are or were they’re absolutely perfect for fundamentalist sermons. Just about any news of military maneuvering somewhere vaguely northish of Israel can be turned into an angel getting ready to blast out the end of the world. And since somebody over there is inevitably flexing their military muscles at any given point in time, it’s pretty easy to keep the eschatological ball rolling.
As for me, my money is on Switzerland. It’s always the quiet ones you have to watch the closest.

@ Jordan True fundies would say that the Bible not only contains these descriptions, but that these very descriptions prove the inspiration of their King James Bible, since the writers obviously couldn’t have known about the things they were writing about…
@Don, that was great! Thank you! My guess is that green M&M’s, given their lascivious way of life, probably die in the first round of competition.
@Bassenco Jeri, if the duel master is a fundy then he doesn’t even let the Greens ones fight since they are girls…
And of course the yellow ones are all cowards…

The Peanut Butter m&m’s will always be the champions in my book.
But Rob… do you have any evidence to support that?
@Don My stomach size offers all the evidence anyone could ever need!
no,no,no,no,no,no,no,no,no,no,no, no,NO,NO,NO!
(That’s my Jakc Schaap imitation)
That’s not enough proof, see the King Jimmy m&m’s are the pure m&m’s the peanut version has had alot added to them. Gail R. did a comparison and there are thousands of additions in the Peanut perversion.
