It's a long weekend. Can't you put in a word for moving it to Tuesday? It's supposed to be sunny too. I was looking forward to it after all this damned rain we have been having.
I think that's doable. I believe their calculations hinge on the day the ark was launched. All I need to do is convince them they forgot to take into account leap years, blue moons and the apocalypse averted in'76. That should buy the rest of us a few days.
It shouldn't be hard to convince them. It appears that they will believe anything. But it'll have to be late afternoon on Tuesday. I have a luncheon engagement I would prefer to keep.
Still had to take a family member to the dentist today though and 2 fillings were had and we're still here so hopefully we're not living in the aftermath of the end times.
However as far as I know, if we knew the exact date the Lord was returning to claim victory over Satan, we'd all prepare!
It is 6.15am Saturday morn in God'sOwn New Zealand... and the sparrow farts Are Not Earthquakes or Thunder on the horizon... they are merely.. Dirty Little Birds!!!
Well, unless you get raptured there will probably be at least one more growing season before the end. But be kind to the weeds. They are definitely not being raptured so they need a break.
Really? I'm an atheist. But if I see people floating to to heaven on Saturday the first thing I will think will not be that it's a coincidence. I'll think someone slipped LSD into my drink. lol...
Well everything comes to an end, even planets! Though I doubt that this one is getting a red card this weekend. Also depends if they mean the planet being destroyed or the end of the human race - not the same thing at all. Planet Earth can do very well without us!
That's the thing. They always say it is going to end but what they mean is that it's going to start. The end for Christians is never an end, just a beginning.
Predictions say that after the end of the world us atheists and other sinners will still be alive down here in a kind of hell on earth with the zombies till Jesus comes and renews the earth. I think it's then that we all get flung into the pit.
But. Buddhists predicted a third world war first and then a thousand years of peace. After that it's anybodies guess.
And it can't end now because we still have 2012 to look forward to according to the Mayans.
I wonder what Jesus will do about the sun going red giant in a few billion years?
I actually saw a news story that this all orriginated with an 89 year old minister who thought it was going to end in the 90s, but it turns out his math was a little off that time.
Yeah, but we lost the cup in '95 by one goal. The Nucks have a bad habit of letting the big ones get away. However, they've never looked so good or played so well. They man-handled and disposed of the Sharks last night, it was a sight to see.
I hope you are right. It is only fitting that a Canadian team wins,.The Senators have done the same thing to me for years now. But at least the world won't end. It'll just be a better place.
If anyone will be raptured it's you. Put in a good word for me when you see the big guy. Tell him I can't help not believing in him. He made me this way.
My mother shocked me today. I see her every week when I do groceries for her. We were talking about this rapture thing. and she told me she actually prays to god not to send her to heaven if the rest of her family isn't going. She'd rather be with us.
Damn if that didn't make me feel like I should repent. lol...
Love it - a mother's prayers never go unanswered. So, wherever we wind up in the end (unless it's just a big nowhere/nothing) I think you can be assured that you'll be together with your family.
I live in a small town in southern PA and we have an electronic billboard beside one of the main roads here in town. Yesterday I went by it and so help me there was a "Judgement Day May 21st!" message on it. That kinda freaked me out that even in a very small town like this you are seeing it. Even more creepy? When I posted this, there were 21 posts on this thread! ::cue Twilight Zone theme::
Maybe God will employ the Jews to smile down on hell. Even Satan who invented job, won't get fired but (kick in the butt) will get promoted to over 100 billion served
I've been waiting anxiously to see what my final destination will be - and now that it is so close I realize there is no way to prepare for judgement day - if it truly exists. I've always thought these things are more like metaphors for teachings, in other words "Live life AS IF you will be judged at the end and you will be good, kind, courageous, generous and compassionate and have nothing to worry about - either way"
of course, I haven't done so, and expect to get a lot of punishment - IF! See you there!
So are the 'Rapture parties' already over in Australia? Did you stay or did you go Earnest?
Seems like there is nothing like a bit of death and destruction to get the Evangelicals partying and the more godforsaken amongst us never need an excuse to have a good time:
I think that the guy who is offering pet insurance to those who expect to be raptured and need somewhere to look after their pets left here on earth is very enterprising!
earnest, I was going to send you an email to see how you fared. We've got just over four hours to wait on our end - I told Slarty to give me a call and check things out!
They should consider that they are all going to hell with the rest of us and leave it at that. They were right. God took what he wanted. It wasn't them. lol....
I find it silly to believe in such stuff, natural disasters have always taken place and would continue but that dosen't signify the end. This is just another scam taking advantage of people's fear.
Okay, it's already the 21st here in Australia. Nineteen minutes in and all looks good. If the world ends will we know about it before everyone else does?
So sorry to disappoint Castlepaloma but 6:00 pm has come and gone and ne'er a horny 7 headed red dragon in sight. I will keep you posted though in case we catch a glimpse of the nigh before you do!
No. I'm assuming this guy made his predictions for the USA, knowing that it's "The Chosen Land" and all other countries, date lines etc don't count. Since the Bible was written in the Middle east, I would assume it would be based on their times, but you know America takes precedence, being the only Christian country in the world.
I'll hold up my sarcasm sign just in case anyone took that seriously.
Great, I'm having mine tonight complete with DJ, strippers, and all the booze you can drink. I seriously hope the cops come to shut us down, of course I've invited just about the whole town so I'm sure some of them will be there. I gave my employees the day off and they are all invited to the party so I fully expect not to see anyone at work tomorrow.
Ooops! I was wrong! "Camping, interviewed on a radio station recently, said the rapture will happen at exactly 6 p.m. Saturday. But it will happen timezone by timezone, meaning the first round of rapturing will happen at 6 p.m. in the International Dateline at 180 longitude. (That’s between Pago Pago, American Samoa and Nuku’alofa, Tonga.)" http://blog.seattlepi.com/thebigblog/20 … d-camping/
I'll bring the hot dogs, marshmallow and pot. We won't need any fire wood there will be plenty of fire that surround us. When the time comes, I'll bow down to where my ass is and kiss it good bye.
Last chance, anybody wants to sell me their land for very cheap, like right now?
The World Clock says it's already the 22nd in Canberra, Sydney, and Brisbane - any Aussies still up and willing to report? Or have y'all been Raptured?
Nop. Retard lives in California. That means he has adjusted his calculations t0 Pacific time, which means the rapture won't happen till 9 pm Eastern in Canada and the US, depending on who does and who does not observe daylight savings time.
To be safe, the celebrations can begin around 10pm Eastern. I know that means it Australia and the like get an extra day. You should all consider yourselves lucky for it. .
Oh yeah. nine hours left till the end of the world. Breaking news: God told me only the atheists are getting raptured. They are the only ones who weren't greedy and who didn't pester him about being included.
Shouldn't he be arrested for fraud? He bilked people out of thousands of dollars and he's done it more than once. It should be illegal to scare the poor and idiotic into departing with their money on false pretenses. And of course it is. But not when it is a religion that is doing it, it seems.
Well, if I am raptured, I won't show. If not, I love Zombies AND parties, so it's on! And, no need to worry, I have a long, long, long list of things I intend to ask once I get upstairs.
If he said that then Camping is tap-dancing already because...

It is. But so few are going no one has missed them yet. Call up your police station and ask if there were any missing persons reports so far,. I'll bet there were and there will be more.
Ok. and the same goes for you. If you don't get my call by 7:15 you will know Christianity has had it all wrong. The atheists are the ones he wants. That's why he had to wait till now to get enough of us to fill his quota.
For hell, not in hell. You will get your uniform and instructions when you get to heaven. Seems the Christians Jews and Muslims have been following a fallen god: the one who said to his followers that he is the only god.
Don't worry. Hell is only a place where they all get deprogrammed. "An" (the real father of all the gods) needs us to help coordinate the masses and guide them to where they need to be.
On the other hand, Yahweh is in big trouble.
You will get farther instructions at 11 pm Newfoundland time.
Hi people!What do you have to say about the world ending May 21st 2011? I'm so sorry to raise your emotions negatively. But this is a discussion I feel I should post in this forum. I know this will help somebody somewhere in the globe.So what's your views "The World wil end May 21st...
Is the world Coming to an end on 21st Dec 2012 ?If you think that the world is coming to an end, what would you do with all the money you may have saved ? Would you stop working ? Would you visit places / relatives you have never been to ?
What will happen on December 21st, 2012?This is the end of the Mayan calendar. Some people think it will be the end of the world while others think it will be the start of big change. What do you think? Will anything change or will it be life as normal?
