1. "We are living in the days spoken of by the ancient prophets."

There are people that have claimed that for almost 2000 years. :shrug:

[lpbk2713]

2. If Jesus is coming ...

will I have to shave and put on a neck tie?


What a bother.

14. Jayzeus could start by trying to fix SHIT like this

[donco]

3. Maybe rush is

getting a headstart.

[malaise]

18. DUzy

You stole my post :evilgrin:

[Caliman73]

4. Good gracious...

I love how the fundies always tell people that the Bible is the literal word of God, but then they talk about how people misinterpret the meaning of certain verses.

You either take it literally or you interpret. You can't have it both ways jackasses!!

19. Yes, decades ago in a former Pentecostal life I studied the Rapture

to confirm its validity, looking at the original Hebrew and Greek words used and came to the conclusion that it is a false doctrine that relies upon torturing and forcing scriptures together as well as claiming fulfilled prophecies are yet to happen.

5. It's like reading dispatches from the insane asylum.

One loony post after another. They all sound like Bible-thumping Holy Rollers or overwrought TV evangelists. Imagine having the kind of mind that buys into craziness like this! Talk about wasted lives.

:eyes:

7. but its so fucking entertaining!

from a distance

in a hermetically sealed bunker

in a hazmat suit

and 3 translators between me and their insanity

6. Can we just convince them to give all their shit to the poor so they can unburden themselves before

they go meet their maker?

[Sirveri]

8. but the poor must be lazy, therefore they don't deserve it!

At least according to their logic.

[lillypaddle]

9. I have a magnet on my fridge

that says, "Jesus is coming ... look busy." Favorite magnet ever!

[Ichingcarpenter]

10. I never go there anymore but I did go to Little Green Footballs

which had a larger site and following. The owner of the site finally said the far right is crazy and moved into the light on many issues, but not his posters

[mmonk]

11. I can't wait until they finally leave.

[Fumesucker]

12. Do the rapture ready folk love their pets?

Some enterprising heathen could probably make a few bucks offering to care for the rapturists' pets after they are raptured..

Payment would be required up front of course.

[mr blur]

13. Already done! nt

[era veteran]

15. Superstitious idiots

WTF some guy said Gog. I have lived through all of the past failed raptures, I can make this one too. Is the word rapture even in the bible?

[XanaDUer]

16. This one makes some sense...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To: TaraP
It is a fools errand to try to understand the day / hour of Christs return .... because for most of humanity since the Resurrection, that day / hour is the time of our own death. For once we leave this earth, we can no longer change what is written in the Book of Life.

Far better to focus one’s attention and efforts as if this day will be their last and now is all they have to live according to God’s plan.

[XanaDUer]

17. Uh-oh, Bush and Cheney better look out...

<17> A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,

Obama and Michele - their USUAL look

It's above Obama’s “pay grade” to know if abortion is wrong. It is the shedding of innocent blood in the most cowardly way.

[Motown_Johnny]

20. I wish the Rapture Would Happen!!! Get those religious nuts off the planet so the rest of us

can live here without them.

Sounds like paradise to me.

[BakedAtAMileHigh]

21. mental illness at its finest

New Agers got nuttin on these fools.

[MineralMan]

22. The fundies misunderstood: Its the RUPTURE, not the Rapture.

And it's going to hurt like the dickens, too.
