Well, rapture day is done and dusted now. I am glad to see 100% of the population are sinners. Hell is going to very cozy :)
 
Drat. I again completely forgot about this Rapture / End of the World and so missed it entirely. That's probably the twelfth in a row that's bombed. And I'm a devout Christian. These people claim to "follow the Bible alone" (which is itself unscriptural), but what part of "no-one knows the time, not even the Son" and "come like a thief in the night" don't they get?

What is 100% predictable is that this or any other Rapture will never happen - Christianity has never and will never teach such a strange doctrine. The whole notion of a Rapture is a man-made doctrine believed by only the tiniest minority of Christians (though you'd never guess that, given the dominance of American media). It is unknown to the Fathers, Doctors and Saints, unknown by hundreds of thousands of martyrs, and unknown (or rejected) by 98% of all Christians who have ever lived or who are alive today. The Rapture doctrine was invented in the late Seventeenth Century by people who had fallen into heresy and schism. It got new life in America, where its propagation is funded by fundamentalist heretics who have lots of money from the credulous. They have lots of other basic errors that contradict the constant and unchangeable teachings of Christianity. To name just a few:
* A root error: They mistakenly believe that Sacred Scripture is the pillar and foundation of truth. That teaching is not Biblical and is in fact directly contradicted by Sacred Scripture.
* They believe that salvation come by faith alone, through some weird act of "accepting Jesus as your personal Lord and Saviour". This false teaching is a serious misinterpretation and rejected by over 90% of Christians worldwide.

For non-Christians chuckling at this who bizarro incident: Note that these people are not the mainstream of Christianity but the weeniest of loony loopy fringe off on their own thing.

We know - empty vessels making a disproportionate ruckus and all that. That being said, I personally don't regard them as any more loony and/or loopy than any other group, just differently so.

Um, actually... I think you don't know Christianity as well as you think. :rolleyes:

If the rapture had happened and left us sinners behind think how much improved the gene pool would have been.
Every one of next February's babies could have been a genius who accepted evolution.
