Or, more to the point of the silliness here, more about the FIRST than the second, when by every account, including Jesus' own, the second is the more impressive.

To the contrary, preterism simply amounts to taking Jesus at his word, that he would return and establish all that was promised withing the lifetime of certain of his hearers.
Futurists are multi-taskers in that they thumb their noses at preterists and then proceed to live like them.
