Some christians actually say this,
"well, you know that even during bible times they were waiting for him to come back...and he never does. This world could go on much much longer then you realize."
Know what I answer back?
"OH MY GOODNESS!!!! MORE PROPHECY WAS JUST FULFILLED WHEN YOU SAID that TO ME!!!!!! MARANATHA!!!!!"

The CAPITALS OF SELF-CONVICTION will make it all come right and true - you wish.
Jesus failed on his promise to return while there were still those living when he made his promise. They are all dead now. Or perhaps nobody noticed his return and it happened a long time ago, or else it's false. Take your choice. Either way, your Rapture is not something that can be relied on - except by brainwahsed/braindead fools.
Yes that's right Daniel, Hosea, Joel and Hahum were writing about you........get off you're ego trip and shut up, the rest of us are trying to have a civilization here.
It never happened, at that's all the proof I need that it's gonna hahhen. CAPS LOCK MAKES IT TRUE!! Maranatha is some stupid end-times word. Shortwave end-times kook Brother Bill Stair of Walterboro, SC, aka Brother Scare because of his doom-and-gloom format, ends his sermons with that word.
You know what I say? You are fucking crazy. What prophecy was fulfilled this time, as soon as someone contradicted you?
I used to feel sorry for people who were brainwashed to the extent of wanting to die; I thought they'd been duped by cult leaders or something in a time of weakness. Now, I realize you're all just fucking insane. You're all just missing parts in your brain that reason and make sense of things. You're all just - a waste.
Either get a life or end this one. You are nothing but a parasite on society with such hopes and dreams for death.
I can prophesize, too:
When you spout some stupid shit to people, some of them will tell you "Wow, that's some stupid shit."
Bask in my prophetic powers.
Oh, give her some slack. You're allowed to use caps-lock when you quote someone[yourself] yelling...
... although that she yells that make it more disturbing...
@Giveitaday: They think the whole world is doomed but them, some of them even assume their kids aren't going to be Raptured. Rapture Ready is the home of arrogance coupled with delusions of grandeur mixed with a persecution complex. In short, completely fucking nuts.

"And isn't doubt of a prophecy often part of the 'fulfillment' of the prophecy? Isn't that just a bit too convenient?"
Indeed. It's like how the Bible warns people that they will be persecuted for believing it, so when you "persecute" someone for believing something batshit insane, it actually *reaffirms* their belief ("OMG JAYSUS SAID YOU'D SAY THAT!"). Of course, if you *didn't* "persecute" them, they'd think that everyone agreed with their death cult, which also would reaffirm their belief. It was a genius inclusion on the part of whoever wrote the thing.
(I used "persecute" in quotes because, more often than not, it's something more along the lines of "question" or "try to talk out of," which becomes "persecution" through the Special Fundie Persecution Glasses.)
You want Bible Prophecy, Glory. "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but my father only."-Matthew 24:36 Jesus said that, it is a prophecy that is actually in the Bible, unlike your stupid "rapture" nonsense which is NOT IN THE BIBLE!!!
"OH MY GOODNESS!!!![blah blah blah]"
At this point I back away slowly
"MARANATHA!!!!!"
And then I turn and run. When people start screaming foreign words in my face, my fight-or-flight instincts take over, and since I'm weak-bodied, I run.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
