Maybe my apathy...
A recent discussion on a forum sparked a chain of thoughts in my head - I don't care about the book of Revelation. I honestly don't care about the whole 'end times' debarcle and debate. Tribulation and rapture and post-whatever. I don't care, I don't think it's fundamental to the Christian faith. I'm all for an argument, but why do we need to let something so...trivial, in my opinion, take over the way we believe things? I think the other things Jesus taught about were/are much, much more important. Treating your neighbour as yourself, feeding the hungry, healing the sick, etc.
Anyway. That's my view.

It's interesting you say that, actually. A fair while ago I was told about a man (I have no idea who he is) who was getting every new Christian to read Revelation, the whole book. He considered it to be one of the most important, if not THE most important book in the bible, particularly for new christians. Why he does, I'm not really sure. I found it a bit odd and didn't really agree with his opinion. But yes, I do agree with you Pat. We should be focusing on Christ's teachings of how we should live.
