We been through this so many times hopefully some people out there who get sucked into this every time should be getting a clue but that's no guarantee. As the song says, popularized in the 60' by Peter ,Paul & Mary, "Where Have All The Soldiers Gone" , "Oh when will they, ever learn". One answer few filled in is for way to many, "never". SS


Dammit, and I got my routes to the nicer neighborhoods mapped out for my post-rapture looting.

A long-gone poster here by the name of Bozola has a great signature....
"Practicing skeet for the Rapture".

"We are all connected; to each other biologically, to the earth chemically, to the rest of the universe atomically."

"So you're made of detritus [from exploded stars]. Get over it. Or better yet, celebrate it. After all, what nobler thought can one cherish than that the universe lives within us all?"
-Neil DeGrasse Tyson

Sorry to disappoint you guys but the last time God answered Americans prayer was during the Vietnam War. God gave the Americans a second chance to save their butts and let them bail out.

There is no short cuts here. Two failed wars, a failed economy, bankruptcy and Mexicans wanting their land back. I believe by 2040 there will be parity and we will mostly be speaking Spanish.

Hemant Mehta reports that Harold Camping died this past Sunday. He adds:
If there's anything positive I can say about Camping, it's that he didn't appear to be a con artist, making up a Rapture date that he knew was untrue in order to dupe people into giving money to his ministry (for reasons that would make no sense if the Rapture actually occurred on that date...). He seemed to be sincere. He really thought Jesus was coming back on that day. He was genuinely heartbroken to learn he was wrong.

But sincerity won't be his legacy. We'll forever remember him as the guy who was convinced Jesus was coming back on a certain day... only to learn in the most public way possible that his beliefs weren't based in reality. Even though his family said he is now with God, you have to wonder how much doubt seeped into his mind these past two years. Did his faith crumble at all after God let him down on May 21? We'll never know, but that nagging voice in the back of his head must have gotten at least a little bit louder the day after.

That nagging voice was senile dementia.

Hopefully his passing was pain free and quick.

Didn't like this guy's approach to religion. He spread far too many lies that he fervently held to be true. But he was human and he has a family that loved him in the end.
