You have limited time left!
Same people. I enjoy how they answer the Q&A on this one... "How do you know it will happen on May 21, 2011?"... "Because it is fact."it are fact
But are they willing to part with their worldly posessions? That's what I want to know.
Damn. Why can't I find any of these people near me? I mean, it should be possible to convince them to hand over their worldly posessions.....
I'd rather lead an army of transhuman super-soldiers equipped with advanced weaponry. If I'm going to attack God's legions, I want SCIENCE! on my side.
But of that day and hour no one knows, neither the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone.In other words, the End could come on May 22, 2011; or it could come when some super powerful gamma ray burst hits the Earth and bombards it for 40 hours non stop in the year 2500.
Sounds great for making popcorn.Quote from: Matthew's Gospel, Chapter 24, Verse 36But of that day and hour no one knows, neither the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone.In other words, the End could come on May 22, 2011; or it could come when some super powerful gamma ray burst hits the Earth and bombards it for 40 hours non stop in the year 2500.
look on the bright side, on may 22, we will be able to point our collective finger at every bible thumper we can find and laugh at them hysterically.
The Tribulation is coming, but we don't know when. Could be tomorrow, could not be for another thousand years. We need to be prepared for it whenever it is though.
I turned their propaganda fliers into paper airplanes.Propaganda fliers that actually fly! :P

Um, no. You can laugh at these morons, but most "Bible thumpers" out there are already laughing at these morons with you. These guys do not stand for the rest of the Christians out there.
Christ was crucified on April 1, 33 A.D.
This is kind of old so you may have seen it but it's still pretty funny. A Christian group called Prank 3:16 did a rapture prank on this girl that was a little too obsessed with the Left Behind series. It's kind of messed up because they really freaked her out. Skip to 1:27 or so if you don't want to listen to host ham it up.

Just what, exactly, are us Koolaid-abstinent Christians supposed to do about people like this? He owns a freaking radio broadcasting company. He's a joke at best and a false prophet at worst. I can say that all I want. But it's still not gonna change what he's doing.Point and laugh like everyone else?
If we listen to the White Album enough we may find salvation is waiting there.
I'll spend it in bed with a 6 ft blonde :pimp:

So... the world was suppposed to end 49 minutes ago, right?
If I put her in some 6" heels....I'll spend it in bed with a 6 ft blonde :pimp:

Why not a 6 ft and 6 inches blonde?
Well, it's an hour and a half into the date for the end of the world here in Jerusalem, Israel, and I'm still here.... 22.5 hours to go I guess. :pDid it go up to "No Reason Why Jesus Will Return in '00"?
This reminds me of that book "88 Reasons Why Jesus Will Return in '88". Followed by the sequel, "89 Reasons Why Jesus Will Return in '89", of course. :lol:
EDIT: The guy's 2 domains expire this year. At least he's not wasting any money... :p
An atheist and entrepreneur from North Hampshire, Bart Centre, is enjoying a boost in business for Eternal Earth-bound Pets, which he set up to look after the pets of those who believe they will be raptured.
He has more than 250 clients who are paying up to $135 (£83) to have their pets picked up and cared for after the rapture.
They would be disappointed twice, he told the Wall Street Journal. "Once because they weren't raptured and again because I don't do refunds
"Look on the bright side, how many release dates have been given for Doomsday, and it still isn't out yet.
It's the Duke Nukem Forever of prophecies..."
Quote from: Flipside"Look on the bright side, how many release dates have been given for Doomsday, and it still isn't out yet.

Seeing as Duke Nukem Forever is still not released, this is still relevant. :p Thanks, Flipside.
I was going to quote "For none shall know the day or hour," etc., but BengalTiger beat me to it. :) For the Zen-esque chums around here, consider this question, how can man know the mind of God?
I, also, get a vision of Jesus sitting in heaven...You do?!?

I'm not a total denier of faith, I just hate the way most of it is being institutionalised. I'd be happy if there was a God, but I have a problem with the very Human nature of trying to use that hope to control people. Whether He truly exists or not, God, and particularly Jesus could have been a great motivator for the improvement of mankind, teaching self-sacrifice and respect.
People often make the argument that Jesus said "I am a Sword", but I always think people mis-interpreted it, a sword can kill and threaten people, it can also protect and feed people, it all depends on the hand that wields it.
:lol: I, also, get a vision of Jesus sitting in heaven with a diary crossing off dates....
Most of them would have a doubt that maybe they weren't good enough, forgiving enough etc. That maybe they didn't let Jesus into their hearts enough.
Well, I'm a Christian (light, not connected to a church and such) but I don't believe anything about any Rapture. It's typical arguements of people that are too scared to stand up for their faith and just say, oh, we'll be teleported out before the mess starts. Bull. I never was taught the Rapture theology, that stuff is probably only 150 years old maximum. Same with the other crap like the constant reussal of 'Render unto Caesar'. And more recently, the Clergy Response Team, using earlier mentioned crap. That pastor guy that has his radio show? He's very likely one of them. These guys are no Christians, they're fearmongerers, and got money to make. At least we won't see those snake oil salesmen in the next life. =P
I'm still here? Anyone been raptured or felt the world-wide earthquake yet?had a very nasty thunderstorm here, it jolted me from my sleep a few times. Does that count? :p
It's been an absolutely lovely day here (though we could actually do with rain), it's ironic really, because so many people seem to be slathering at the mouth for it all to end. Oddly though, I don't hate them, I pity them.
I could almost understand this mentality in countries that are torn by wars, famine and death, but the US is a land of plenty, it may not be perfect, but nowhere is, and a lot of the West do not realise how lucky they are. The thing that annoys me is peoples willingness to put the future of themselves and everyone around them in the hands of some unseen force, we have such potential as a species, we really do. I suppose it takes great courage and humility to say "We are responsible for the world around us", but until we do so, the mistakes of the past will forever return to haunt us.
By chance, I was actually in church when 6:00 rolled around. Our priest made a few cracks about being in the right place. :p
Mark my words though - every single one of you reading this has a birthday this year; the Bible guarantees it!That's at least one thing it gets right. :P
Reminds me of why Pratchett always called in the Aprocrylypse, because it's pretty apocryphal ;)ah, the Apocralypse :p
Heh.. both their websites,
www.familyradio.com (http://www.familyradio.com)
www.wecanknow.com (http://www.wecanknow.com)
are both down.
I'm wondering if they can bring a class action suit against the guy who claimed the world would end.Rather just have him lynched.
As funny as it is that his prediction was false.. I'm actually pretty angry at him as I read the articles around the web. Stories of families with kids who gave up everything with this day in mind are left with nothing.
yeah, I know some of you want to laugh at those people for being stupid (which I'm not arguing their intelligence on the matter), however it downright pisses me off that the lives these innocent kids are stuck with is bottom of the heap...

Stories of families with kids who gave up everything with this day in mind are left with nothing.It's true that it places some of these peoples lives in very bad places... which is unfortunate. I feel bad in way. But I'm not sure how to express how I feel about that situation. The parents willingly placed their family in this situation, based on the ravings of one man/a small group, who they strongly believed in... but it all turned out to be false to the surprise of very few. In my view it's irresponsibility...but I'm sure they see it differently.

I think it really shows the truth aboutmostsome "Christians" today.

Fixed for you.
Which obviously allows you to make generalizations like that about the 1.8 billion Christians in the world.
And at any rate, American Christians != Christians.

Who said I only had to correct American Christians? In fact, what is wrong with your perception of Christianity in America that when I point out that most Christians are surprisingly ignorant of the bible you decide I must be talking about Americans? :p
*img*:lol:
shall be remembered as the LULZ day..... or the Loonies day maybe.
he felt so terrible when his doomsday prediction did not come true that he left home and took refuge in a motel with his wife.Because I'm pretty sure there's people now that are looking to kill him, he's simply hiding from them.

Doesn't mean someone shouldn't do the deed and do humanity a favor though.
Wonder what his excuse will be when October 22nd rolls around? ;)
American Christians != Christians.well actually...
Hang on a sec, if everyone has already been judged does that mean there is no reason at all to follow any of the laws of the bible for the next 5 months? Cause if so all of this guy's pretty female followers are invited to a post-Judgement Day orgy at my place. :p
