Video of the day -- the Rapture re-scheduled


Rejoice -- for our fun is not over yet!  All those fruitloops who were freaking out because they weren't hoovered up into the sky last week to dwell with God have now found a satisfactory explanation for the dud prophecy.  Due to some kind of mix-up between the Gregorian and Julian calendars, the original date was thirteen days off, and the real Rapture will take place next Tuesday!  Glad that's been straightened out.  All those people who gave away their cars and burned all their money weren't wrong, just a couple of weeks early.  So now there's a brand-new countdown to another massive disappointment.

As you'll see, some of them believe they're getting messages from God via car license plate numbers or something written on a coffee cup.  That's the level of mental acuity we're looking at here.  Come on, you're talking about the alleged all-powerful creator of the universe.  If he wanted to send us a message, I'd expect thousand-mile-high flaming Hebrew lettering along the orbit of the Moon or something like that, not a time written on a coffee cup that happens to look like a Bible reference.  For that matter, this entire recent round of Rapturetardia was kicked off by some nutball in South Africa who has a podcast, who announced that God told him about it in a dream.

Oh, and some of these same goofs are also saying that the UK is "paving the way for the Antichrist" because some online Bible apps over there went down for a few hours.  Also, in case you were wondering, that "CPS" which is mentioned several times is Child Protective Services, an agency in the UK which investigates situations where children may be endangered.  You can see why they'd be concerned about some of these cases.

How fitting that this year's International Blasphemy Day was bracketed by two such fruitful occasions for mockery.  It's a sign, I'm telling you!  Satan be praised!

And of course, they will spin it in some way. I believe the whole religion is spin.

I would think that posting a video that incites others to expect and anticipate their imminent death would be against that platforms code of conduct?

I put this in the same category as inciting suicide.

Anvil: if they were ever actually held accountable for all the nonsense they spout, the whole concept of religion as we know it would be doomed.

Rade: If the videos that encourage this behavior were non-religious, they might well get taken down on those grounds. But anything religious is always given special privilege to bend the rules.

Wow - the level of denial and delusion among these folks is off the charts. How much evidence do they need that this rapture is all bullshit? I think Donald Trump is the anti christ and the Christian have already been corrupted by him. They have sold their souls to the dark side by supporting a lying, pedophile, adulterer, grifter. I am sorry it is not real. I think the planet would be a better place with out them.

Lady M: Unfortunately religious belief is notoriously immune to disproof by evidence. Believers are actually proud that they cling to belief despite all evidence against it -- they call this "faith".

Trump has nothing to do with it. Episodes of belief in an impending rapture, very much like this, have been happening on and off for centuries.

Damn, I was looking forward to having those whack jobs disappear from view.

Mary: They never stop. It's like an obsessive-compulsive disorder.

David: Since a real rapture will never happen, unfortunately we seem to be stuck with them.

It's more than just stupid; it's pathetic.
