End Of The World Again

[nailit]

bet evangelicals are wetting themselves with excitment...

[fiveleaves]

I expect the Rapture to happen any day. What is wrong with hope?

[ToraToraTora]

Perlease!

[Mamyalynne]

Again?

[anneasquith]

Soon ?

[THECORBYLOON]

When was the last time it ended?

[nailit]

//I expect the Rapture to happen any day//
Its been expected anyday for the past 2000 years,

Still, some live in hopes eh?
(Got a medical procedure soon, Hope its not before then, that would seriously put a spanner in the works...if Putin hasn't nuked us first)

[nailit]

No one kept up with end of the world predictions then??
They happen every few years or so among the religiously inclined.
Please do keep up!

[fiveleaves]

Well the Rapture only has to happen once. I wouldn't worry too much about the end of the world. There are at the very least 1000 years to go. All stated in the Bible

No need to keep up, we have our own correspondent.

//There are at the very least 1000 years to go//

//What is this Rapture you speak of? //
Tills, and you an ex pentecostal teenage religionist?
Like I was?
Shame on you ;-)
You must have been ordered to read end time books?????

[Tilly2]

No, Nails, I wasn't.

[Tilly2]

...and even if I was, I'd have been reading Brighton Rock instead.

[nailit]

wind?
As in wind, like the breeze
or wind, lick a clock?
;-)

[Tilly2]

...or Cider with Rosie.

[Peter Pedant]

what dis rapture den?

various signs from Revelation - ukraine good for war and Putin for the Antichrist - besides seven seals and "the trumpet will sound!" - there is a belief that a certain ( preselected I think) group will undergo 'rapture' whilst alive - the rapture being enabled to comtemplate Heaven

Some discount Rapture as a sign - Nicholas Cage who is an undischarged bankrupt Actor and so needs the moolah - made a film about it

Some Churches in America believe we are at the End of Times ( around about then Rapture occurs)

[nailit]

//I'd have been reading Brighton Rock instead//
Seen the film, not read the book,...

[nailit]

//Some Churches in America believe we are at the End of Times ( around about then Rapture occurs)//

Some churches in America believe that they are innoculated against snake bites as well but historically proved wrong,
AND?
