| 41. This will sound harsh but it's the truth |
|
The fundies are salivating that now is the end of times with the mideast situation and W was God's chosen leader to bring us to this point.
The fundies are complete effing idiot whackjobs, plain and simple. There is no "rapture" mentioned in the book of Revelation, never was. Some fool made that up in the 1800's. The people who are working to put this absurd fantasy into action are working to destroy our world for something that doesn't exist.
They think they're going to get some great reward in Heaven for doing all of this. Funny, doesn't that sound just like the motivations of the terrorists who rammed planes into the WTC and the Pentagon? And to think people hated them for what they did and called their religion evil. How ironic.
