1. So, here's my question. When the Rapture finally does kick in, what

happens to the images of Jesus and Mary people have discovered on potato chips and cookies and so forth?

4. The idolators are killed for worshiping them. n/t

9. fuggeddaboutit. You can't sell any more Jesus-on-toast you made with

your butane micro torch.

2. "The prophetic speedometer of end-time activity."

5. Yee haw! Rapture! I get all tingly just thinkin about it

If I knew when it was gonna happen I'd get my ass over to some christian girls college and watch all the naked chicks get hoovered up into the clouds.

Unless jeebus came and poked my eyeballs out or somethin.

12. Nah, he'd be right with ya, sayin " Ain't dis da shit!" nt

6. Well, you can't argue with their specificity

17 Crime Rate:
Violent crime has dominated the news.

:dunce:

7. Uh-oh

This can't be good:

11 Leadership
Barack Obama's election victory ensures a new liberal sift is
coming to Washington D.C.

Unless flour or gold is involved, I don't understand what sifting has to do with a change of administrations, but, then, I'm probably not going to get a front-row seat for the Rapture.

This list is one of the funniest things I've ever read. I had no idea nuclear power was spoken of in the Bible, but, hey, what do I know?

Where do they get these ideas?

You know, I sense a political agenda behind these, and not necessarily one that Jesus would approve. For instance, this one is a little suspicious:

43 Climate:
Record cold temps put the freeze on global warming hype.

Thank you very much for this. I feel so sane ..............

11. Could be a typo, should be "shift". That would make sense.

Well, in their twisted definition of sense.

10. "When I look at a newborn baby, I cannot imagine a big bang..."

ejaculation: an abrupt, exclamatory utterance (or otherwise known as "a big bang").

That site is a comedy gold mine!

13. So their needle moves every time some nut claims to be Jesus?

Must be hard to keep up.
