Yeah, and I have no intention of watching it.
You're bringing up scripture that applies to those that are alive when he comes. He's implying that there will be some that have not died in the flesh that will see him come. However, most people will only see him after they die.
Err, no, I couldn't find anything that implied that when I read those verses. Jesus doesn't say he's talking to people in the future. He's talking to the people in front of him, and uses the word "you" to address them. Take a closer look:

But I understand you don't want to give up your whole religion just because this part of the Bible contradicts reality, so I can understand why you would want to rationalize a different meaning into that verse.
No one knows when he is coming. Ever heard of Harold Camping? Huge religious following. Radio Stations and all. He put out a book that said jesus was coming in October of 1994. What happened to his prophecy? Don't follow religion, follow the word of God.
How can I follow the word of God when he refuses to answer my questions with anything but silence?
