    I'd rather he just said "because". More believable.

    I'd really love to hear a preacher Sunday morning open the service with:

    "I'm disappointed to see so many of you still here."

    Only 200 million? That doesn't seem very worthwhile.

    I heard that there would only be 147000 Jews taken to heaven.

    So I guess that means that in the event of rapture, New York Style delis will be unmanned.

    These people are fucking geniuses

    $135 contract to pick up your pet and care for it once you're whisked off to heaven. They even make their workers--those responsible for the pet pick-up--commit "the unforgiveable sin" so that even if they do find Jesus before the end of days, they're screwed anyway and they have to go get the pet.

    Business is up 50% over last year. Awesome.

    The "terms and conditions" is pretty funny. <a class="postlink" href="http://eternal-earthbound-pets.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://eternal-earthbound-pets.com/</a> They definitely cover their asses to prevent any legal recourse.

    I heard it's a rolling rapture, and countries around the world will broadcast their specific raptures the day of until all the believers are brought up to heaven.

    If this rapture shit fucks up my May Two-Four weekend, I'm going to be upset.

    This photo is Migiddo, the UFO landing pad Jesus is going to pop up on at 6pm this weekend and kick everybody's ass. Sinners will be able to help themselves to lots of piles of clothing around it.

    I plan on selling tshirts outside Cracker Barrel this weekend-




    This is what I don't get. Why does everyone that believes in the Rapture think they're getting picked? It's the fucking Rapture, let's face it, some people are going to be "Left Behind".

    Yes, according to the Rapture™ Wikipedia page, the event will take place at 6 PM local time. Even the almighty power of the Rapture™ obeys the equally almighty power of TIME ZONES.

    I am at my work right now and it is dead.

    We have a very large religious base of customers. They must have all been raptured.

    Real question, did anyone kill themselves after the most recent rapture prediction was found to be bogus? I have a feeling a few of the people who went all in financially on this are going to spend their last dollars on nooses.

    My wife told me that people had left cars at the side of the highway as a prank. They left the doors open and all.

    I want to know what this dipshit does. He took his life savings of $140,000 and wasted it on billboards and other ads.

    I think he also took out a shitload of personal loans too, if I remember correctly he's a retired transit employee or something. He was the guy I had in mind when I asked.

    Well, it's past 6PM and I'm still here. Not that that really means much, but the rest of the world seems to be intact. Maybe Jesus is just a few hours behind?

    Just throwing this out there: the TIB is a less than ideal group for studying The Rapture Hypothesis, with the sinning and all.
