We seem to be under the impression that mankind "isnt all that bad" Truth
be told, all mankind is worthy of death, as there is none righteous, not
even Christians. Christians are absolved from the punishment of death
simply because they accept Christ took their place at the cross. Anyone,
even satanists can choose to accept this and become Christians as well,
perfectly redeemed under the blood of Jesus.

Crazed and "naked" does not demonstrate an impartial opinion. These
propets were anything but crazed, as all the prophecies they made came to
pass 100 percent, word for word. Even Archaelogists today concede and
support these facts. The only argument left is that such prophecies have
been made AFTER the fact, unfortunately for those not believing in God, no
evidence can support their arguments.
The fact is, if God came down from heaven Himself, and performed miracles in
front of you, you still wouldnt believe. In fact He did, and they killed
Him for it. It's just the way mankind is. The Jews, who saw the red Sea
part before their eyes, absolutely refused to believe ANYTHING God told
them. That's why I can say with all assurance that no matter what God
does to prove Himself to you, you wouldnt believe. Your heart has to
change.
