2. If we could just get a text message off...
I'm sure some will be holding on to their cellphones. :evilgrin:

Good job on that, BTW. Loved it!

3. Thanks...
I don't know what got into me. Must've been...nah...couldn't have been... Oh, just maybe... :evilgrin:

Someone posted some thing detailing physical positions people should take when the rapture came and the inspiration struck.

4. Do you think the rapture letters would work for people
who want to abandon their jobs or leave the military early or quit being pretzeldent?

5. Dang! You mean I missed it AGAIN?
A number of years ago, in the late 80's, there was a call to the faithful by a fellow who had figured out that the Rapture would happen in May (maybe March, but May seems right). The date came and went and then he admitted that'd he'd miscalculated and the Rapture was ACTUALLY going to happen in June.

People were selling their houses, giving their kids to kin folk or neighbors and, guess what, by the end of June....no Rapture.

I was so disgusted I pulled out a white tee-shirt and a sharpie and wrote:

THE RAPTURE CAME AND WENT
AND I'M STILL HERE

I wore it around for a few days....ruffled some feathers, had some folks telling me they'd pray for me. But I thought to myself: Well, you're still here too.

8. There's that guy that has a website
that will send out messages to those "left behind". As I recall, the program is set to send out messages once a week if the guy isn't there to stop it. If he stops it then obviously the rapture hasn't occurred (he thinks he's going). People subscribe and add names of people they want contacted after they've left to the e-mail database. The messages tell those left behind that the rapture has happened and their friends have gone to heaven. This way, those left won't waste time looking for those who have left. Surely, we can do something like that.


I admit that I've wondered what would happen if the guy got sick or delayed and didn't stop the messages from being sent especially wen someone who has registered runs into someone who got the message they were raptured.

9. When the rapture happens...I'm taking my slippers.
OH..I forgot. I'm one of the LEFT BEHIND!

So much the better. (It's kind of being opposite of the 4400, n'cest pas?)

We'll get rid of the fundies! OH WOW. No fundies....

Buh bye....

:hi:
