[OldsnowboarderME]

um, what time zone?

Jerusalem

 

[bvibert]

um, what time zone?

The reports that I'm seeing say that's local time. In other words the rapture is going to sweep across the world, hitting each time zone at around 6pm. I guess we'll see it coming at least...

These crazies are out in full force in DC. See a few of their trucks, along with the aborted fetus-mobile on almost every run.

If I see a sign holder later today in Boston, I'm going to ask if they will give me their unneeded monies.

See how serious they are. :lol:

i guess i should have read the article.


On May 21, "starting in the Pacific Rim at around the 6 p.m. local time hour, in each time zone, there will be a great earthquake, such as has never been in the history of the Earth," he says.

 

[deadheadskier]

but I thought it was the Yellowstone Mega Volcano that was supposed to end the world???

I think GSS returning to AZ will be a sign of the apocalypse..

 

[gmcunni]

i wonder if daylight savings time has been factored in.

The day starts in the pacific, so by Saturday morning we should know if it's happening or not.

Well if the world really does end at least we won't have known the difference. ha.

IF the world is ending, doesn't giving away all your worldly posessions just a tad self-serving? I mean, you're not making anyone's life better, you're just being a pompous ass, trying to edge your way up in line. I'd think old St Pete, or whoever is in charge of these things, would see right through that. I doubt 2 days of charity right before you know the final bell will ring is actually worth all that much.

Now me, I'm sticking to my hedonistic ways right up to the end. To thine own self be true, baby, all the way through. The world may end with a whimper, but not me. Unless, of course, I'm asleep at the time. I mean, 6am is pretty early, epecially on a Saturday.

Come to think of it though, it's probably all going to happen at 4am:

From what I understand only 3% or so of people are being taken away on Saturday. The rest of us get to duke it out until October.

Not sure you'll have to- I understand that all their clothes and stuff will just fall off when they start floating up. So if you have a big pillow case handy you'll be fine.
Come to think of it, if the pols get on top of this quick they could balance the state budget here, or at least until the world blows up in October.

Tonight to get in the mood think I'll catch a flick or two from the Top 10 Judgment Day Movies list-

"Last Man On Earth" looks pretty good- anything with Vincent Price.

 

[Dr Skimeister]

Everything's fine....

 

[o3jeff]

Do I need a special colored track suit and tennis shoes to participate?

 

[legalskier]

Omg, I just remembered- what will happen to kitty?

You've committed your life to Jesus. You know you're saved. But when the Rapture comes what's to become of your loving pets who are left behind? Eternal Earth-Bound Pets takes that burden off your mind. We are a group of dedicated animal lovers, and atheists. Each
Eternal Earth-Bound Pet representative is a confirmed atheist, and as such will still be here on Earth after you've received your reward. Our network of animal activists are committed to step in when you step up to Jesus.

I am currently seeking any people who truly believe May 21st will be the Rapture... I have cash for your gently used automobiles, electronics, furniture, homes, whatever you won't need come Sunday.

I heard a story recently (likely on NPR) about rapture believers so convinced that they not only needed to believe the end is nigh but also having to act it out and really live like it was, that they really had made bad financial decisions. Truly a terrible thing, it is really quite sad. Folks that literally lived like there was no tomorrow, spent all their money, and planned on having nothing left financially by today... perhaps as a show of their faith. I hope all you folks making fun don't have any questionable beliefs of your own. Just sayin'...
