I just heard the world ended last saturday. So how is everyone? Enjoying life after the end? I thought I'd entered heaven (sun shining, computer, fun people) until I saw a police van stop right in the middle of a pedestrian crossing just so they could turn around easier. Civil servants my ass. Could be purgatory, though.
I was tempted not to show up to work today or tomorrow, just to see if people would wonder if I was taken in the Rapture.
Well, since we're apparently living in a post-apocalyptic world now, I want to know where my vault is.
Under the (don't say sea, don't say sea) ground... Yeah, it's so well hidden we forgot to make an entrance. Sorry.
At the very least I demand a Turbo plasma rifle, a suit of Hardened Power Armour and a wagonload of Micro Fusion Cells! I could be persuaded to swap weapons for a Red Ryder LE BB Gun and a metric ton of BB's.
The guy made a statement, saying that his "original calculations were out by five months, and that it's actually going to be 12th October this year." I'm actually a little worried; the biblical Rapture sees that all of those worthy in God's eyes will be taken. According to some interpretations, it means those who do not know the meaning of evil and guilt - children under the age of four-ish, even unborn babies, will be taken. And I'm also wondering how the heads of the expectant are doing. You know, you truly believed that you were going to be taken, but you're still on Earth, so does that mean God still doesn't like you...?
I think I actually read that he said that the earth would be destroyed on October 21 (not 12), and that the rapture did, in fact, happen on Saturday; it's just gonna take Jesus and Co. a few months to make up their minds about who goes to heaven and who doesn't, and that board meeting is what began on May 21.
That would be imposing human fallacy on them though. The fact that they need to sit there and ponder instead of just knowing.
That alone wouldn't disprove it, though. Since no-one has any conception of God, it doesn't make sense to say what he can and can't do.
According to an obscure 70's novel written by one Stephen Sheppard called "The Four-hundred", there are only 400 people on this planet who can truly say that Heaven on Earth is truly theirs. Fake Edit: this is where the title of the book came from, apparently.
A coworker claims that only 144,000 souls can be admitted to Heaven due to rapture and that the rapture already happened some time ago so Heaven is full now.
