I'm gonna be working customer service tomorrow when it happens (lolwhat), So if I sense anything rapture-y happening, I'm taking my frustrations out on my customers.
Hell, I might decide to punch a random customer in the face at 6:00, and blame it on the fact that "The Rapture is coming, I thought I wouldn't have to answer to you guys anymore"
Unless this is Bioshock's Rapture, because that would actually be pretty awesome

I really don't get how you can predict the end of the world once, be completely and utterly wrong, and then do it again. It's like "no really, I was ridiculously off last time, but THIS time I'm definitely right and you've gotta believe me!"
What blows my mind is that research shows that believers in cases like this actually have their faith strengthened instead of weakened whenever they buy into this sort of stuff and have it turn out to be false. It's as if their faith wasn't strong enough so by believing even more then next time they'll be right.
All I can say is I've got a B-Day party to go to and my friend's a brewer at Gordon Birsch so there's going to be some delicious Hefeweizen. So tomorrow is going to be awesome-tastic. And even if they happen to be right despite what their own faith says, then it's still ok - we get confirmation that Christianity is the one true faith and 7 years to convert before the war on Earth ends in Christ establishing his kingdom. Or something along those lines - it's been a while since I've been a Christian so my memory may be lacking.

I don't have anything but a few errands to run in the morning, then watch Get him to the greek in HBO in the evening, i'm up for a rapture, i'll probably be one of the ones called up, that is, if god wants non idiots in heaven. If not, i'll get in a wank and go to bed.
It's "supposed" to start at each time zone at their respective 6 pm. What time zone is currently the closest to 6 pm May 21?
Most of Revelations is symbolic really in my belief as a Catholic. Nero = 666 in Hebrew numerological naming, thus 666 = Number of the beast. 7 horned beast = 7 deadly sins, bunch of wonderful symbolism.
According to these people believing in the "Rapture" It doesn't begin until 6pm in each time zone on the 21st so if its the 21st where you live wait till then to find out! Apparently there is a worldwide prank of dry-ice in sneakers and articles of clothing lying about in parks and other public places. That could help pass the time I suppose until the world ends. =P
Kiribata. It's already 6:33 there. And.....presidentjlh said:
Nope, still there. And checking recent seismogram data from new zeland...
Welp. Of course, the guy says it *starts* in NZ, so maybe kiribata doesn't count and we have to wait another 85 minutes.
(that image updates every few minutes, by the way, so you can reload it repeatedly and see what happens)
True Christians don't get "caught up in the air" until the end of the tribulations, not before they start.Therumancer said:
If I'm wrong... well I would hope that I'm getting raptured earlier then expected, but even if I knew, I don't expect to change my actions.
Still, I think Mark 13:32 would like to have a word with this preacher. I have have no problem calling to attention the foolishness of trying to predict the end of the world because it discourages people from having an actual change of heart and instead "cramming" for the end.
Y'know, that is actually exactly what I was thinking. Sucks, man.Luthir Fontaine said:

Sorry to rain on your parade, but apparently there'll be a big Earthquake to finish off those who don't get raptured away. But, according to this dude's philosophy, you might be one of the few chosen for salvation (Calvinism and all that).MrDeckard said:
Mostly, I'm just disappointed that I never got Episode 3.
I can't help but laugh at the lunacy of the whole idea especially given the verse that OP mentioned that I believe to be true...so thiers not gonna be any rapture(not today anyway)!!!!! feel sorry for the people who are dropping thier plans or canceling shit cause they believe its all really gonna end sometime today though
