There was actually an article in yesterday's Los Angeles Times about business opportunities in the post-rapture economy:
Entrepreneurs Offer Post-'Rapture' Services (http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-rapture-20110519,0,6209624.story). Unbelievable !!!
But, of course, there are logistical problems with the whole Rapture thing. The timing seems kinda hazy,...apparently, God is not adequately notifying the faithful.
What if, for instance, you're engaged in, you know, romantic activities, at the moment the Rapture occurs,...how do you explain to everyone on the other side what's going on,...when you all of a sudden appear 'In flagrante delicto' at heaven's door, with all of the faithful (and, their underaged children) checking you out ???

Found this humorous YouTube video by CNN: CNN: Rapture to Start May 21, 2011, Group Claims (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGQsHfUpdpk),...the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) actually has an Important Emergency Preparedness Description of the Zombie Apocalypse (http://emergency.cdc.gov/socialmedia/zombies_blog.asp)

My thinking is pretty basic:
If you somehow,...inexplicably get Raptured (through no fault of your own),...

CAN I HAVE YOUR STUFF ???

:eek [In fact, it might be a good idea to just FedEx it to me, now.] :eek

It simply makes me laugh how the gullible believe anything they are told. Remember back when the year 2000 was approaching? I worked for a tool and die company at the time and over half the folks that worked there believed that disaster was coming on January 1st 2000. I would giggle at a few of them and they'd get real pissed off at me.  :bg

Well guys, I'm ready for The Rapture...

I guess it was nice knowing you. Maybe I'll see some of you in Heaven.

You'd think he'd get a tsunami of restraining orders. Or, lawsuits,...can you sue someone for being incredibly stupid ???

I vaguely remember the test of a prophet is whether what they say comes true. This guy has already flopped and apparently you don't get a second chance to be a prophet.  :P

Steve,

This will be the third end of times prediction by this nut job Harold Camping, his first back in September 1994. He's a nut, a wealthy nut that is. There are some 150 stations that broadcast his Family Radio here in the United States (we are plum full of nuts). It's a shame that so many believe in this old nut so completely that they spent or gave away their life savings believing that on May 21st they'd no longer need it because they were headed for some imaginary place called heaven. Now it occurs to me that if I'm wrong and there is a heaven and hell its going to be a real shocker to many folks who claim the christian faith when they end up down below rather then up above. :bg

It did happen, all of the good people were taken. Unfortunately, no-one missed either of them.

You know Michael, that was a Saturday as I recall, so I no doubt got drunk that evening, but it had nothing to do with the subject of this thread.  :lol

Bill,

Long ago my young brother used to listen to Garner Ted Armstrong, not because he believed it but because he was so good at being a Holy Roller. Its not often you get one worth listening to and I have never heard better than Billy Sunday. He had to be good to be immortalised in the old song Chicago.

Wikipedia doesn't say that he died from a stroke.

Nether I nor the article linked to above said he was dead (yet) but he can no longer speak his bullsh!t. And I quote from the article "His speech appears to be a little bit slurred but otherwise he's OK," the neighbor said. "(Shirley) said he was doing good "... and the only thing that's affected is his speech." I mean come on, the man is 89 years old, I doubt that he's going to be around much longer to speak his crap nationally on his radio broadcasts.
