The Rapture, my friends, seems to be imminent . . .
The Rapture Index

You could say the Rapture index is a Dow Jones Industrial Average of end time activity, but I think it would be better if you viewed it as prophetic speedometer. The higher the number, the faster we're moving towards the occurrence of pre-tribulation rapture.

Rapture Index of 85 and Below: Slow prophetic activity
Rapture Index of 85 to 110: Moderate prophetic activity
Rapture Index of 110 to 145: Heavy prophetic activity
Rapture Index above 145: Fasten your seat belts


Rapture Index 155
Net Change +1

... if you believe this sort of fundie bullshit....

Why not just think about the reality of it instead of promoting it? :think:

edit for syntax.

2. I think it's a joke, punpirate.....
Dontcha see? In fact, I thought it was so funny, I went in to tell my brother, who used to be married to a fundie, (and didn't experience any 'rapture' in that relationship, by the way).

He laughed, too.

:kick:

3. Well, sorry...
... just looking at the "uh, oh" at the bottom of your post. Perhaps a bit too subtle attempt at satire for me. :)

6. Actually, if you look carefully...

...it's been going down the past few years, likely because nothing's been able to top 9/11.

The high in 2001 was 182. The high this year was 155--today, yes, but still, the low in 2001 was 160.
