The most exciting thing that happened to me today was one of the kittens fell down the loo... don't worry it's fine.

No rapture yet though...

Maybe it did/will happen and no one is worthy of being raptured. Would anything change? Would anyone know? If we look at it this way, it could have happened a long time ago.

How could 1 nutcase (of which that are millions in the world) attract so much ****ing attention as though it mattered 1 bit or made a difference to anything?

Then you have idiots building strawmen to make themselves feel better, as though somehow someone who self-identifies as a member of group X despite obvious flaws in that identification, is capable of speaking as an official authority on alleged group X.

Nobody cares. No one ever seems to pay the slightest attention to things like this outside of America with its myriad different obscure Churches which most often seem to be the source of this.

You get people who seem to think making random bull**** predictions about the end of the world has anything to do with anything that bears any resemblance to Christianity and yet somehow... the Pope, the leader of the largest sub-group of Christianity A. Probably doesn't even know about this. B. Certainly doesn't care. C. Isn't telling people that there's going to be some kind of Rapture (underwater city FTW).

But **** that, that would be logical. Let's pretend that 1 ****face is an authority over 1/6 of the world's population and that makes them nutjobs and now we can go back to our pitiful lives and continue to accomplish nothing, knowing that at least we just made ourselves feel better than a lot of other people without actually having done anything to justify that.

YAY.

It just gets annoying.

"Hi guys, I'm a Atheist. The moon is made of sandwiches and Charles Darwin (who as we all know, is only considered a respectable scientist by Atheists and derided by everyone else, because why not it feels good) is coming to smite every other belief system next week."

Congratulations, Atheists are now made to appear more absurd by mere tenuous association, because that's how logic works now.

Oh dear, it would appear I am still on terra firma post rapture, which means I (and incidentally all of you who are still here) will have to suffer through the end of the world. So, fellow doomed escapists, what shall I do 'till the arrival of those four horsemen? Rape? Arson? Looting? Murdering my asshole neighbor? Praying for forgiveness?

On a slightly more serious note: let us suppose there actually was a rapture (copious amounts of peyote help with the suspension of disbelief), and all of us still on earth are doomed. What would we do? I mean as a civilization, given that only a small number of people are supposed to be "saved." Apparently there are supposed to be natural disasters, so would it be in our interest to avert as much suffering as possible, or give in to our most animalistic instincts and loot? Prepare for retaliation against whatever cosmic force wants to obliterate all there is, or ask it for mercy? Yes, this is a serious question. What should humanity do to avert its own extinction? We do have a fairly strong self-preservation instinct after all.

PS: no, I of course do not believe in such ludicrous fairy tales like the apocalypse (which incidentally only means "prophecy" or "revelation," not "destruction of the world"). Besides, the stars are not even properly aligned to allow the Old Ones to return...
Just don't get the mark, man...

Also, I noticed that you too got bombarded with random awards from the EC crew and now your 4 featured badges are all Extra Credits stuff. Y'think they're doing this to make themselves feel popular?

I dont see the point of this, giving in to the most basic animal instincts, why would anyone want to do this, is seeking pleasure for the sake of pleasure so important to people?

Do responsibility, duty and common courtesy really matter so little?

Then why do I still have a headache? :s
Oh... It's you... Yeah... This is kind of awkward, but I've been elected by the angels to tell you that... You're in purgatory. Yeaaahhh... Sorry 'bout that.
Eh, could be worse. At least I can still play borderlands cross realm with my friends if they're in one of the other afterlives. Who would have thought that the internet could cross dimensions?

You do realize that the 83-year old priest says the world ends tonight at 6pm, correct?

Yeah, it could be a lot worse; you should see the net speed they get in Hell - terrible! And the net filter? Don't even get me started.
so it's like being in Australia? :^

you do realize the old fart said rapture, and the true end of the world (well to him) is in October, right?

Well I still have an hour and forty five minutes to go until the Rapture hits Britain.

Exactly whose time are we using for the Rapture? I've heard 6pm is the time it'll happen but a lot of the world has already had 6pm of the 21st by now so exactly whose arbitrary designation of time are we using for our doomsday clock?

You guys speak for yourselves, I got flaming meteors falling from the sky around my house and the floor has turned to lava.

Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to spen my last hours sniffing these mushrooms I found in my backyard.
