4. Rapture .. it's a win-win. If God takes all the RW lunitics how could peace not possibly break out.
Not to mention all the free stuff they leave behind. Wooohoooo

5. If they equate the rapture with a nuke going off
Edited on Sun Sep-20-09 09:41 PM by nebenaube
can we assume that they are a dooms-day cult and be done with it?




We are commanded to know the signs of the times and to be prepared to meet The Lord in the air at the catching away of the believers.

24. Unless... just suppose they're right about the Rapture
it's the people God considers "righteous" that are suppose to be raptured, right?

What if God decides He likes liberals and takes us and leaves all the Fundie nuts to fight itself amoung themselves. :rofl: I'd really hate to miss their reaction to that.

17. (snicker) The light turquoise background,
and the primary-coloured highlighting of the text, emhances the goofball creepiness of that site. It might be hypnotic if were not so hilariously cheesy-looking (mm-gmmph-BWAH-HAHAHAHA!)

20. This is no time for mockery! The Rapture may be just hours away.
Although that site is very non-specific when it comes to what time tomorrow...

29. Somebody put an incredible amount of
time and effort into that site. Too bad I don't have the patience to read it all.
I'd better fast next week.

39. I'm starting to have my doubts about this.
It's already September 22nd in Australia and most of Asia, Europe will have passed through the 21st in a few hours and here in the continental US, we're already more than half-way to there.

44. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!
Laconicsax, apparently you missed the caveat they had squirreled away in there:

In Matthew we read:
Mat25:5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
Mat25:6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.


(SO Tuesday midnight is actually 12am Tuesday September 22nd, Jerusalem time) However, in most of the world (by western time keeping) it would still be September 21st, 2009.


Which means we still have some more time. A whole nother day!!!! And if that ain't good enough, we still have the next date to look forward to in the COUNTDOWN TO ARMAGEDDON SWEEPSTAKES and that is, when the Global Stock Market Crashes on:

October 7, 2009

- Remember to set your alarm clocks and mark your calendars folks.....

45. Not on the 8th anniversary of the start of the Afghanistan War!!!
Edited on Tue Sep-22-09 12:16 AM by laconicsax
As of typing this, it's 8:13 AM on 9/22 in Jerusalem. Looks like their hypothesis isn't supported by the data...somehow I don't think they'll examine the possible reasons why they were wrong.

Edit: One such problem is an improper application of the Bible CodeTM. It can only be used to accurately predict past events, provided the proper interpretation is applied.

47. I'm so confused
They always quote the Bible, "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only." And then they go ahead and try to predict it anyway. So...isn't that hubris, thinking that they have the secret that Jesus said NO ONE has? Just sayin'... :shrug:

Now I've got an image of God cackling with glee and moving the date of the Rapture every time some fundie tries to predict it.
:rofl:
