(2,721 posts)My first guess was Jehovah's Witness, since they sort of have a pattern. I don't know if these are JW, but if they are and you just take 144000 that they believe is all that go to heaven, and assume that only currently living people will go to heaven, and only take people from the 8 million active Jehovah's Witnesses, then one in 55 of their populace will disappear.
I can't find what church is lead by pastor Joshua Mhlakela who is always announced as a South African pastor, but he stated that his church was going. Again, we don't know the name of the church so we can't thin this down and figure out what branch of Christendom is most likely to start floating off.
My guess would be that the few nice old ladies will be missed by their congregations, and no one else would notice. Sad really. The cops are going to be rather curious when they hear how a man saw his wife of 40 years float into the air. Poor man will probably end up in jail.

(32,010 posts)has a great relationship with that whole Yahweh guy, but anyhow Trump did the Tariffs and said you know 144K isnt that big anymore you got to go BIGGER and more gold. So to fix the tariffs Yahweh was like "okay dont hurt me just take whatever you want.
So now you can get in as long as you have enough credit card miles.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
