Okay, around my area in Salisbury this lady my girlfriends grandmal knows was riding through town. She seems a boy on the side of the road. She NEVER EVER picks up hitchhikers, but she had a strong urge that day to pick the boy up. Boy gets in the car and she takes off. ( Don't know actual conversation ) BUT the boy said this "God has his lips on the trumpet, and he is coming soon" then the lady simply replied "I'm a Christian", and she looked over at him and the boy was NOT there......She pulled over and was freaked out.....a cop rides by and see her trembling and pulls over and walks up to her car. Asks the lady "Are you okay mam?" and the lady thought to herself that she shouldn't tell the cop because the cop would think she was crazy but she told the officer anyways. And the cop replied "Mam I don't think your crazy, in fact I am a christian myself and this is the 6th time this has happened today" !@!%@^&%!@&^

I believe in God and I'm saved and everything, but when I heard this story its almost impossible to not believe you know? And all these predictions of the world ending and everything, it all seems to be coming true.....

No, I don't know.

In fact. I'm accomplishing that feat at this this very minute.

there was a similar incident in Ireland.

" A young man broke down on a dark and stormy nite on a country back road. As he started to walk, a car pulled up slowly, So he opened the door and jumped in. When he looked over to the driver, there was no one there. Paralized with fright, he stared out the front of the car as it headed for a cliff. Just then a ghostly hand reached in and turned the steering wheel. This happened 3 more times. Then he seen a lit pub. He jumped out and made a dash for it. Inside the pub, he told his story, Just then the door flung open and Paddy yelled out, "theres the gob shite that jumped in my car when i was pushing it"

[RE_XXX]

you should never question faith.... were you there to disprove it?

So your ignorance in not believing could lead you to be an embarassment because of your theories and disbelief?

Take it with a grain of salt..... I have heard personal stories like this one...... and the people who told it would never lie just to make themselves feel more of an important person...

Ignorance is bliss

During the 1960s, hitchhikers were being reported all the way down to Brazil. Went one story: A minister was motoring down a road to make a sick call when he spotted a young male on a stretch of uninhabited land. He picked up the man and they began to speak of Jesus. The preacher said he believed the Lord's coming was drawing near. "Well, that may be sooner than you think," the stranger replied. And when the minister turned to look, the young man was gone. On the New York State Thruway have been similar accounts of a "beautiful young hippie" clad in shining white who supposedly would enter a car, buckle his seat belt in the back seat, and talk about religion. Mainly he seemed to want to know if the driver believed in the Second Coming. When drivers turned around to answer him, the hitchhiker had vanished -- leaving his seatbelt fastened (according to a professor who studied this, Lydia M. Fish of the State University College of New York at Buffalo).

We investigated this matter and found reports in Pennsylvania and Virginia and Maryland, in Ohio, in West Virginia. There are hitchhiker stories from Massachusetts to California. "Well, the Lord is coming soon," one such hitchhiker, this time an old man, allegedly told Jack Mattox, a retired factory manager from Mattoon, Illinois, with whom we spoke.

That was 1979. The reports mushroomed in the 1990s. In Eureka, Missouri, a witness named Gary Ridings said he picked up a guy with silverish hair on Highway 270 in 1993 while he was driving a pickup. It was around the time of the Mississippi flooding. "This fellow said, 'The coming of the Lord is at hand,' and when I turned to the right side -- he was on the right side and I had been looking to the left --

I mean, its weird and I don't know what to think about it honestly.

I guess I'm saved compared to what I was brought up on. I'm not saying that i am the best christian in the world or anything.

Just figured I would put it out there and see what other people think about it.

Down in Texas you hear more of the "virgin mary in the torilla" and "Jesus' face in the tamales" stories
