"It'll be very embarrassing if earth goes 0 for 6.7 billion in the rapture on Saturday."

1. What I don't get is....

how some are seeing this thing go down. Supposedly, some believe it will occur in a rolling wave fashion - per time zone. I thought when it raptures, it raptures everywhere on the whole planet at the same time??

[damntexdem]

2. But then on the other side of the international date line ...

it would happen on the wrong day. ;-)

3. Do you want everyone piling up at the Pearly Gates at the same time?

Even those with elite pre-boarding status would be stuck in line for hours.....

[FSogol]

4. I hope Heaven doesn't use Aramark for their concessions. They'll be out of napkins & hot dogs fast.

:shrug:

5. I wonder if the Pearly Gates hide a full-body scanner?

Will they be taken without their shoes, or have to remove them before entering?

Questions, questions...

[RebelOne]

6. I think when they are raptured, their clothes and shoes are left behind. n/t

[jtuck004]

7. Great, little piles of dirty clothes and shoes all over the place, left for someone

else to clean up while they try to take all the glory.

Are they, by any chance, predominantly Republican?

18. Inconsiderate bastards...

they could have done this in January

I need a new winter coat.

8. I've decided I'm going to wait to be raptured until 12/21/2012

That is when the Big Boys get their rapture..

[seabeyond]

9. the thing, only the few would be raptured and the rest of us would be spending hell on earth

isnt that the way it is suppose to work?

per the rapture text and if taking literally, not many at all will be rptured

[brooklynite]

10. Well, since there IS only ONE agreed-upon understanding of the Bible...

[seabeyond]

11. hence my asking the question. but the people promoting the rapture are the fundies, who are literal

literalists and as literalist, they would take the literal interpretation of the bible which states only so many will be raptured and the rest live in hell on earth

right?

[brooklynite]

12. Plenty of fundies don't agree either...

...or a LOT more people would be worked up about Saturday...

[seabeyond]

15. whatevah..... nt

14. Back in the day they talked about the 144,000.

If 144,000 people, out of a population of close to 7 billion, up and vanished NOBODY WOULD NOTICE.

[seabeyond]

16. i couldnt remember the number but knew it was pretty insigificant.

everyone vying for those 144k positions?

didnt make sense when i was hearing about the "end" white john kerry was running and my kids were in a christian school, that shifted to a fundie school

[A HERETIC I AM]

20. Unless all 144,000 were airline pilots and it happened while they were on the job! n/t

[yella_dawg]

13. I got a great idea.

Let's all go out and kidnap a bunch of obvious Christians tomorrow night, then call CNN on Saturday and report them missing.

[FSogol]

17. Better yet, let's report all Liberal Leaders missing. That's mess w/ their little heads.

;)

19. Hahahahahah!!!!

They'll still see them, of course, but we could claim we don't...
