How do we know for sure that the rapture didn't happen?
Maybe it did and we were all raptured and the new place looks just like the old one?


Maybe that is what they will say to excuse that nothing has apparently happened.


:rofl:

3. Pretty sure it was supposed to happen at 6PM New Zealand time...
And then 6pm throughout the rest of the time zones...though apparently even the rapturers believe that everything is about America and have now made it 6PM est

4. Or, maybe we're all in Hell...
Gas is still expensive and traffic is terrible.

6. I was thinking that it did happen, but the people who were looking forward to it
weren't eligible, and those who were eligible didn't want to go...

7. A few years ago I was telling some "Left Behind" fans the Rapure already happened...
Edited on Sat May-21-11 05:11 PM by JHB
...on September 13, 1999. They were among the 'Left Behind' too.

(the date is from Space: 1999, the day the Moon was blown out of orbit in the show's pilot episode)

Maybe cloud 8 is the best we can hope for. ;)

11. Dunno, but 8 years of being a US citizen under the Shrub administration
should have been penance enough for a free get out of Hell card, and be Raptured into Heaven pass instead, IMO.

12. 'Last night somebody broke into my apartment and replaced everything with exact duplicates... '
When I pointed it out to my roommate, he said, 'Do I know you?'

15. maybe the rapture was supposed to happen
but nobody was good enough to qualify.

I'm sure they will come up with some lame excuse.

18. That would be pointless.
Heaven is supposed to look different, it just does.
