Morality is not determined by the church you attend nor the faith you embrace. It is determined by the quality of your character and the positive impact you have on those you meet along your journey

Okay well I am just tired of waiting for this to finally happen.
The funniest part for me would be to see all of the disillusioned "Christians" walking around saying, ""Wait! What did I do wrong?"
Sad part is we'd still be stuck with the so-called Christian hypocrites, liars, grifters and the like - like Saree. Of course they'd tell us they were told to stick around to help the rest of us get a second chance at redemption.
Gryphen, you had me rolling with your comments on the previous Paylin compound visit story but I nearly split my middle with this cartoon. Getting my day off to a very jovial start. I find it easier to be happy these days knowing that a long, sad soap opera may finally be over.
Thanks again for your valued and very entertaining efforts in exposing hypocrisy and doing your part to restore the luster to your beautiful state since the Paylins began on their campaign to dull the shine.
On the morning of the day the rapture is suppose to come - the rest of us should in our closets, under beds, etc. - let the so-called Christians wake up thinking the rest of us got called to heaven and they were left behind - then jump out and yell surprise-you were left behind too well to OUR world now
Wouldn't it be sweet relief to get these righteous weirdo's out of our hair? They claim to want to stay the debt ceiling, cut social programs all in the name of our grandchildren when they want everyone (including their grandchildren) to meet Jesus in a flash of light?
By the way, we don't have to wear tube tops and short skirts in heels to be Left Behind. Plenty of us women who don't believe in the Rapture are simply normal working or stay-at-home mommies and wives.
Will the letdown of no Rapture on the 21st be as disappointing to the fundies as Sarah either not-running, running but dropping out half-way through or losing badly?
I belive in God & Jesus, etc. I also belive what Jesus said that the 2nd coming is coming soon, but "not even the Son of Man (Jesus) knows when that time will be."
Are you telling me that some wack-o knows more about the Bible than our Lord?
If you really believe, then you believe it could happen at ANY TIME.
However, I believe what Jesus said, not some wacko.
Excellent!!! With the exception of one person so far that was appreciated for the great humor it obviously was. The clothes on the ground were hilarious. Just one question:
Pair of glasses left behind were obvious but what were the two sort of egg shaped objects. The only thing I could think of was they were some guys balls. He wouldn't be needing those evil things would he.
And btw, the kristyuns are absent and it's obvious by the small number of posts on this one. They 'do' have a moral obligation to say something don't they? LOL
People have been predicting the end of the world since I was a kid back in the 60s (of course, it's scary when you hear that and you're 6 or so!)
Now, a good friend tells me it's ABSOLUTELY, DEFINITELY going to happen SOON, because her pastor has been telling his flock that Obama is the Anti-Christ (see anon @ 8:09am, same thing, different day).
Maybe Saint Sarah is waiting to see if the Rapture happens this weekend before she announces her candidacy. After all, why expend the effort to campaign here on Earth when your biggest challenge would be figuring out how to become All-Encompassing Queen of Heaven and the Afterlife, right? ;-)
The Wicked Witch of Wasilla and Franklin Graham will make up some mythology about their being left behind - so they can "prepare the way". It's all lies, all the time, don'tcha know..
The worst thing that could happen is that the rapture is true then we would be left with all the people we can't stand.
I am an atheist and I believe that all these people like Palin, Franklin Graham, Dr. Dobson, Coulter, etc., that claim to be the best christians don't believe themselves. If they did they could never do the things they do so we would be left with the worst of these losers.
Today I've been considering the many benefits of being left behind: getting to stay with my beloved dogs, no more tacky Christian music videos, ETWN goes off the air leaving more spectrum for Law& Orde reruns.
I'm probably going to get slammed for this but here goes...I am a Democrat who campaigned for Obama, I've followed this blog along with Mudflats and Palingates among others and have preordered all three Palin tell all books.
That being said I'm also a Christian who believes in the Rapture. I find many of these comments hurtful "nutballs..good riddance...wingnuts..righteous weirdos..wackos, etc.
Gryphen, you have always shown tolderance and acceptance to race, religion, sexual preference, etc in your blog. To allow these comments simply because this is also the religion that Palin subscribes to seems rather hypocritical. Just my thoughts...
I'll take my chances with the end of the world if it means I get a few months without the nutballs. Good riddance.
ReplyDeleteSad part is we'd still be stuck with the so-called Christian hypocrites, liars, grifters and the like - like Saree. Of course they'd tell us they were told to stick around to help the rest of us get a second chance at redemption.
ReplyDeleteMe too!

ReplyDeleteGreat cartoon!!

ReplyDeleteI am worried there will be a mass suicide when Sarah says she is not running...
ReplyDeleteAmen!! The most dangerous zealots are the "religious" ones.
ReplyDeleteI once worked with nut-job who told me that Bill Clinton was the Anti-Christ and the rapture was coming.
I told her I thought the rapture had already happened, and ten Buddhist nuns were called to heaven, but no one important noticed their absence.
She didn't think my joke was very funny.
I belive in God & Jesus, etc. I also belive what Jesus said that the 2nd coming is coming soon, but "not even the Son of Man (Jesus) knows when that time will be."

Thanks - my 2 cents worth
They'll never realize anything.
ReplyDeleteThey keep promising! When are they going to "deliver"?
ReplyDeleteWe'll all be left in the best company . . . .
ReplyDeleteI will not miss the raptured when they are gone.
Spotted a bumper sticker the other day here (California):
ReplyDelete"When the rapture comes, can I have your car?"

ReplyDeleteLove that cartoon, made my day!
ReplyDeleteHey, Trump just announced he will NOT run for president. Bummer. I would have loved to see a primary debate between The Donald and Sarah!
ReplyDeleteThey'll only get worse when it doesn't happen, cuz they aren't capable of introspection.
ReplyDeleteLove the Ca bumper sticker! Thanks for the laugh g and anon 8:24!!
So, on the 22nd, when all those bozos are still here - are we to pity them because they didn't get called?
ReplyDeleteAlas, money-grubbing turds like Franklin Graham, would, sadly, be left behind!
ReplyDeleteI've never thought of it like this, but I think it will be great! Yay, finally the world we've all imagined!
ReplyDeleteChristian poll sampling - I am a mainstream Christian whose church does not focus on the rapture. It doesn't even get mentioned.
ReplyDeleteWe'll be left behind along with everyone else, I guess - haha.

There are soooo many people who believe this crap. soooooo many

ReplyDeleteExcellent cartoon, but so real to some of us.
Love the cartoon!
ReplyDeleteHere's a great clip from Six Feet Under, "In Case of Rapture":
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1LXuNpF6NVg
On a serious, yet still pathetic, note, other 'rapture' enthusiasts are busy pushing back against Harold Camping's May 21st group.

Was that today?
ReplyDeleteI'll bet they're going to be really bummed they sold everything and gave all of their money to Pat Robertson.
Can't wait to hear how they explain it away.
(maybe Quetzalcoatl will come and eat them in 2012.)
Today I've been considering the many benefits of being left behind: getting to stay with my beloved dogs, no more tacky Christian music videos, ETWN goes off the air leaving more spectrum for Law& Orde reruns.
ReplyDeleteI'm actually beginning to look forward to this.
Check out the facebook page "Post Rupture Looting".
ReplyDelete@7:42 ~
ReplyDeleteGood one!
They would have to laugh when they realized they'd been pranked!
I can't wait either!

Anon 7:44
ReplyDeleteThank you... I am also a Christian who believe in the rapture, and the comments are hateful. I am a Dem. and keep up with all Palin's story.
If Rapture true, than the rest of the prophecy is true, you won't have time to celebrate the disappearing of the Christians.
curiouser, that is my all-time favorite opening of six feet under! thanks for posting, I never thought to look for it on you tube.
ReplyDeleteWOW I am soooooooooooo worried. WE do live in strange times. Wack-O's says it all.
