"When the rapture comes, you'll wish you had a Jesus sticker on your car."
Honest to god bumpersticker I saw in Brainerd, MN this morning.

The guy also had a Bush/Cheney sticker..big surprise.

Jesus. If I don't have the right bumpersticker on my car I'm going to hell?

1. When the Rapture comes I fully expect to be left behind
Maybe I'll get some peace and quiet.

3. What about a Saint Christopher medal hanging from the rearview mirror?
Or, hell, a crucifix for a hood ornament and taillights that look like the Sacred Heart? Bit more expressive than a bumper sticker (but I'm surethe Protestant fundamentalist nutjobs would still consider it a ticket to hell...'pagan' Catholic symbolism and all, y'know).

5. Yep. That's what Jesus was ALLLL about. Bumper stickers.
Edited on Tue Jul-25-06 03:46 PM by GloriaSmith
Just follow this logic for a second. Did anyone have Jesus bumper stickers during the time of Jesus? NO! Granted, no one had bumper either but that's not the point. The point is Jesus died for our sin of not having the bumper sticker therefore you're going to hell for not having one. I hope you enjoy the heat down there buddy because I just found out from GD that CNN reported that the rapture index is up to 142. I'm not sure what that means, but if CNN is reporting it, it MUST be news.

:D
:rofl:

7. 5 minutes after the Rapture, I'll be driving a car with a Jesus sticker.
And that car will be pretty Holy, cuz I'm
gonna drive the HELL out of it!

BTW, y'all are officially invited to my big
"Post-Rapture, All-SUV, Wal-Mart Parking Lot Demolition Derby".
It's gonna be HUGH!!!!!

8. so by definition the rapture is
putting selected people in "limbo". So this will leave the divine people to inherit the earth. So the fundies acknowledge the fact that they are the evil ones the God will remove from Earth and peace will be restored at long last.

11. " I don't care if it rains or freezes, long as I got my plastic Jesus...
sitting on the dashboard of my car"

Does a "Jesus is coming. Look busy" bumpersticker count towards gettin' raptured?

13. Yeah, like Jehova in the OT,
who passed over the homes with the blood markings on the door, Jesus will flutter from garage to garage, looking for "rapture" bumper stickers. My GAWD. Who are these idiots?

21. There will be no Rapture.
I wish there was some way to get through to the fundies but I'm afraid they are hopelessly insane.
Let'em have their delusions.
We'll get on with the business of running the country and they can sit on a mountain side waiting for something that will never happen. At least it will keep them occupied and out of the way.

34. Absolutely!
Was at the lake a couple of years ago for the week of 4th of July. Went to Bar Harbor. Sigh...i remeber the old Bar Harbor that was built out over the lake...too bad it burned down.


The Bar Harbor Story
http://www.barharborsupperclub.com/history1.htm

Used to go there in my fishing boat with my li'l ol' 5-1/2 HP Johnson on the back. Right by bar Harbor, would get gas at Deauville, get a yummy greasy cheeseburger and an Orange Crush or Bubble Up out of one of those old slide along top loader soda machines. Also spent a lot of time at Grand View playing pinball, ping pong, pool and Bingo in the old rec room there.

I do miss those MN summers!

41. We were just there on Monday night. Gorgeous summer evening.
All the boats were streaming by. The place is totally new now. They rebuilt 2 years ago. And it was packed!

Grand View is gorgeous. Thousands of flowers growing all over the property.

36. See, I would have thought that was irony if not for the W sticker.
So many of these nutters strike me that way. Everything they say sounds like a parody, only they don't realize it.

...and take these fundie assholes off our hands. :P We can start fresh with a liberal, decent society. And we'll have our OWN bumperstickers, thank you very much...
