Saw this on the Daily Show yesterday...

http://www.raptureletters.com/

The rapture: When all the believers in Jesus Christ, who have been born again, are taken up to heaven.

After the rapture, there will be a lot of speculation as to why millions of people have just disappeared. Unfortunately, after the rapture, only non believers will be left to come up with answers. You probably have family and friends that you have witnessed to and they just won't listen. After the rapture they probably will, but who will tell them?

We have written a computer program to do just that. It will send an Electronic Message (e-mail) to whomever you want after the rapture has taken place, and you and I have been taken to heaven.

How is this accomplished, you might ask. It's a dead man switch that will automatically send the emails when it is not reset.

If you wish to do something now that will help your unbelieving friends and family after the rapture, you need to add those persons email address to our database. Their names will be stored indefinitely and a letter will be sent out to each of them on the first Friday after the rapture. Then they will receive another letter every friday after that.

This rapture letter service is FREE and will hopefully gain the person you send it to an eternity in heaven.

If you would like to see one of the letters which will be sent after the rapture, click here.

This is a personal ministry, if you have any questions or comments please address them to: info@raptureletters.com

Thank you and God Bless You!

I usually just head to the left - I can find my friends after The Rapture just outside the venue, waiting for the valet to come back with their cars...

Me, post-rapture = "Whew, glad those pompous gits are outta here. Let's break out the expensive liquor."

If I disappear, you'll probably find me at the Blue Note in Columbia, MO; possibly the very greatest small rock club that ever existed. (Although Lounge Ax would've been up there if it weren't so cramped.)

i think it is great that this person says they will perform this service with the utter confidence that they will be, um, "rapturized".

love the lord.
hate the devil.

the end.

If you can't find me, I'm either at Amoeba or at the bar.

You also need to be in a state of "grace" to get into Heaven which kinda sucks.

You live an evil as fuck life but confess and atone about 5 minutes before IT occurs and you're in.

Live a decent, compasionate life, but break one of the big 10 a few seconds before it all goes down and you're fucked.

This is a main reason I think the whole thing is BS.

Hey, Radcliffe, I thought you had an "in" with the Scientology folks? Can't you get on some rapture guest list or something? Just do a "+ my obner pals". ;)

Y'know, I'm still getting those magazines. I should start up the daily affirmation again.

I'm just hoping the fact that my dad is a minister will give me some sort of automatic pass to eternatl bliss in the afterlife. I'm hoping, cause I'm not much of a beliver.

Quote:
Of his "Dianetics Jingles," Ron once wrote, "If you can decipher these, you'll know everything there is to know." This is the kind of statement no one should be fool enough to make. Obviously, Ron was impressed with these lines. Here are the first eight:

Anything you can take, you can make.
Anything you can see, you can be.
Anything you shun will have won.
Anything you have done you can do.
Anything that is work is a shirk.
Anything you desire means expire.
If you ever need bait just create.
If a motion comes in, use and win.

I'd like to believe that L. Ron was playing a huge practical joke on people, pushing the limits trying to determine just how silly he could get before people caught on... But sadly, people apparently believed in him until the end.

Saw this on the Daily Show last night - it was hilarious when the interviewee said that "All of the prophecies in the bible have come true so far" and Ed Helms said "Name one" and they guy couldn't and just stammered...awesome.
