Oh , the things that freepers say:
To: springtime4hillary

This is a fact: we are not in the Tribulation period yet and I know this because I have not been “raptured” yet. When you see me gone, start worrying.


Funny on so many different levels.

3. Where to begin...
:rofl:

If only to see the look on some of their idiotic faces, I sometimes wish the whole rapture myth were true!

That, and I'd be moving into a new house, with a new car, etc.

:rofl:

14. He / She is relatively
sure of his/her "justification". As only 144,000 will be "raptured" this person generously finds themself in a rather small crowd, even the most ardent Puritan would never have laid claim to such status.

Believing in the Rapture is one thing. To believe
that you are the first in line is well....

crazy talk

20. Not if you have Amex Platinum or Star Alliance Gold frequent flier points...

Then you get to board right after pre-board of anyone traveling with small children or requiring extra time for boarding (unless it's a United Flight, in which case the Global 1K members board with first class and Star Alliance Gold is after that).

25. It's all laid out in the
Book of Making Up Stupid Shit to Justify Making Human Society a Cold, Indifferent Hell on Earth, Chapter 1, Verse 1. Sane people have no access to that book of the Bible . It's like the print equivalent of a DVD extra, available only to complete idiots who understand even less about Christianity than they do about other religions.

31. That's the because the term "Rapture" does not appear in the Bible...
.... it is a concept invented by man. The inspiration of it apparently comes from Revelation and from Matthew 24.

Most scholars who don't get the bulk of their education by watching the 700 Club :) agree that the times that these scriptures refer to describe the time in the first hundred years after the death of Christ when Christians were being persecuted by the Roman government.

Part of this is the notion that Christ will come back to Earth and establish a literal kingdom. In fact this kingdown was established on the Day of Pentecost. The "kingdom" is the Church. Christ made that abundantly clear in Matthew 16:28 "Truly I say to you, there are some of those who are standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom."

In other words, these folks dont spend enough time reading the Bible and spend too much time watching Sean Hannity, who, I've heard, is anti-semetic. :)

34. I really hate to point this out to this person
I honestly don't believe in taking away people's beliefs in which they find comfort but....

Isn't there something about excessive pride being a sin? Isn't there a lesson about that in some book somewhere? Hubris anyone?
