Would you go to a church that teaches falsely that the great tribulation is yet future, since when in fact it is long past, AD 70?

I don't see you answering your own question here. Congratulations. A noticeable and significant improvement!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
