I too no longer seem to want to plan for the future. Before it was, 'someday when I retire I'd like a little cottage of my own on the beach' but now I really feel my time here is very temporary. I keep looking up at the sky like never before searching for that first sight of Him. Or I'll be in the mall and I suddenly start to imagine what it would be like if He came back right then...i.e. that lady reaching out to take her icecream cone and suddenly it falls to the floor because she's gone and the guy who just handed it to her is standing there with his mouth agape!

Why couldn't these people be more like those Hale-Bopp Comet idiots who thought they had to first leave their Earthly bodies in order to be taken in by the god spaceship?
All I know is, from now on whenever I'm in line for ice cream I'm watching out for the person in front of me to disappear so I can catch theirs before it hits the ground. Yay! free ice cream.
Are we almost there Daddy?
That's just creepy, especially considering the doctrine in which the "father" and the "son" are parts of the same being, and one they go on and on about getting married to this father/son/ghost after <insert ill defined non event here >. I hope this is a Poe, if not then it's someone with some quasi-religious fucked up fantasies.
Are we almost there Daddy?
Nope Tori, despite the things the people of Rapture Ready tell you, you will have to live you whole live which might number 80 or even more than 100 years without going "there".
The Rapture these people talk about was just invented by a bunch of people in the 19th century who were too lazy to live their regular lifes here on earth and instead wasted it by fantasizing about Jesus coming anytime soon and taking them into the sky, leading them into new, better lives where all of their wishes would be fulfilled ;)

I'm more and more terrified by the thought of people like this wandering around in public places, with their death cult ideology and all, who knows when they might just snap and shoot up the place? or some other form of homicidal rampage...
Ya know, Tori, if ya actually read that book you worship, you'd realize you ain't going to get raptured anyhow...
"Daddy"?
Please, for fuck's sake, grow up!!
To everyone else: no one in the food industry will be raptured because the food industry drives everyone in it to drink. Hence my fridge full of beer and tequila. ;)
"Are we almost there Daddy?"
Wow, you're regressing into a child right before our very eyes. Sucks to be you, in any case. Also, too bad about your future, it will be a right kick in the nuts.
i wonder, why those people would just be "gone" and not brutaly murderd by lightning, rain of fire oder a giant flood... god is not known for subtility, is he?
What's it like in the Rapture heavy areas of the south?
"You're going to meed a new roof soon john"
Does it explain why rednecks let their yards turn into junkyards? Is procrastination a religious observance to them?
Tori: Are we there yet?
Sorry, I couldn't resist.
It's pretty sad, when now I am daily laughing at posts from people who are clinically depressed. These rapture ready people, they are so clearly 'on the edge of reality' that it's pathetic listening to them all join in on conversations about how life is not worth living and it's better to despair about ever having a good life, and just mope around all day waiting to get whooshed. Hahahaha.
I'm not sure whether to be creeped out by the daddy thing, feel bad for her since she clearly suffers from clinical depression, or just be generally pissed off at the nasty effects their religion has on brains.
No one notice the other stipple of horror provided just a few lines down?
"I am so excited too!! When the world is crazy and falling apart- I have peace knowing that He is coming for His Bride. I went to a Passover dinner tonight and it was so wonderful- I was thinking of how we will be sitting there with Christ having a banquet feast basking in His Glory!"
Now where's that bitter kool-aid?
You have not taken the necessary final step yet, Tori. Where is the cutthroat britva I gave you?
Mystical Chicken, that's cute.
Canadiest, are you calling me a redneck?
Table Rock, Maynard Ferguson?
Thundersqueaks, nice one.
I might have the wrong end of the stick but these sort of posts make me imagine a giant glass-of-water-shaking mecha-Jesus suddenly appearing, lumbering on the horizon.
"He's back! Get to the basement!"
And here is why I have two high-interest accounts with HSBC Bank (along with my conventional current account). One for emergencies, and the other which'll act as my pension.
As my father taught me (to say nothing of my being careful with money - being a Yorkshireman, one has that attitude hardwired into one's DNA), 'Think about the future. Because it won't think about you . '. That, and I got a share of his own savings in his will (which I kept in a bank account when I was twelve - when my father died. Which became the basis of my 2nd hi-interest pension account).
Enjoy being a homeless bum when in your dotage, still saying 'Are we almost there Daddy?', ToriNoell. Because that's how you'll be when you're still waiting for your J-man to suck you off.
Meanwhile, I'll be enjoying a beer in my retirement cottage (or wherever), watching the latest super-HD anime streamed to my 10 THz-based central server-based media system with 52" Organic Plasma 3D screen, 12:1 THX & Bose sound system, and Holographic Lattice-disc recorder/player, etc...
>:D
Pyena, your comment made me lol. Thanks.
"Are we almost there Daddy?"
Wow. Yet more proof that fundies have the mindset of young children.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
