4. Why, bless their dear little hearts... |
|
...what would we do without such Christian charity towards the "unsaved"?:sarcasm:
You know, it's not atheists that "drive" young, impressionable Christians away from the Church -- it's other Christians...

I love the "bless their little hearts" line. And I was a holy-rolling Pentecostal until I turned 24, then I grew up and figured out that I couldn't stand the hypocrisy.

Heh -- I'm still hanging on to Christianity, believe it or not. Despite the Christians.

I think it seems like a good service. Also, I'm not so sure about their Rapture triggering system. This company has to be very careful not to accidentally send out notices to people telling them that they have been left behind. Some people might have an adverse reaction to this news and kill themselves or others. They need to have a failsafe method of preventing false positives.

8. Since this "company" obviously considers themselves among the "Elite" who WON'T be "Left Behind"... |
|
...their "service", which, BTW, is based on very poor theology and poor interpretation of Biblical text, will have to be provided by computer program.
Jesus himself will return in the so-called "last days," right there in the *beginning*, and will make it perfectly clear to everyone on earth precisely what is going on. There is no need for this or any other sort of "Left Behind" nonsense.
Read your Bible. Actually read for yourself what Jesus says. Stop listening to these idiots, who are making untold millions of dollars off of people who are not taking the time to study the Bible themselves, instead of letting other people tell them what it "says." Jesus said these jokers would show up, and start this nonsense. It says so in the Bible. Use good textual translations from the original languages (Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic), and if you must listen to someone else, listen to *reputable* Biblical scholars, not novelists.
This is just the sort of table which Jesus would have overturned in the Temple -- selling this crap. His house should be a house of prayer -- they are making it a den of thieves.

9. The saddest part of this |
|
is the fact that their isn't a Rapture. This planet would be so much better without these people.
