This country is so obviously in its decline. It's funny but only rapture-minded Christians and financial gurus seem to be aware of this.
I've always known that I'd never get to see my daughter graduate high school (she's 5 now), but there are times when I wonder if she'll even get to be 9 or 10 years old.
I don't know about the Rapture for sure, but I do know that if it isn't within the next year or so, the Lord's going to be coming back to either a destitute America, or whatever country we build up after said destitution.
because we are going down in flames. And it's fascinating to look around and see all the people shouting "WEEEEE!!" in ignorant delight all the way.

God: He prevents your children from growing up.
Also... impending doom, lulz. Try A Brief History of the Apocalypse.

Seems people have been predicting the earth's destruction for at least 5000 years now. Imagine that.
There's an invisible green dragon in my garage that breathes heatless fire, I think it used to belong to Carl Sagan. It's funny that only I can see it.
I guess there must be something wrong with everybody else's eyes!
If your COUNTRY is going down, you could move.
Only american fundies think their country is the world.
These people make me wonder why America is the only part of the world God gives a fuck about. An example is the recent fires in California, which a lot of fundies decided was God's punishment for a liberal attitude to homosexuality in that state.
I wonder how they'd explain the lack of such divine wrath in New Zealand, where we legalised prostitution in 2002, we have civil unions for gay or straight people, at least one openly gay member of Parliament, and until recently a transsexual MP. But all the serious disasters, all the really nasty ones in this country - Cyclone Giselle, which hit one end of the country and travelled right down to the other end, sinking a ship and killing 60 people, or the Hawke's Bay earthquake - they all happened before homosexuality was even legal. No major disasters have happened here in the last 22 years.
God evidently doesn't care what the Kiwis do, he's too busy concentrating his godly vengeance on the good ol' US of A.
So the fact that Canada's economy is surging, Britain's has, to the best of my knowledge, ALWAYS been stronger, so on, such forth...that doesn't matter. Bush is driving your economy into the ground, and that's a sign of the end of days?
Gotta love that Xtian humility.
@Sir Michael L. Foley:
Good link, but I have to ask: what the FUCKING fuck is up with the ads to the right and at the bottom? I'm not sure if everyone is getting the same ads I'm "lucky" enough to get, but based on what they are I have little hope for others to be any less bad.
Basically, the ads I'm getting seem to be little more than propaganda, claiming atheism is responsible for Stalin's goulags, and that atheists (or, as the ad charmingly puts it, "dirty atheists") have infiltrated the government. I mean, seriously. What the fuck.
I'm only partially sarcastic with this, GigaGuess, it probably holds true with the rupturists. My reading is, they really want global chaos.
Oh, pshaw, Angyl, you never intended to send your daughter to high school anyway, and you know it. She might accidentally learn how Evolution really works, and THEN where would you be?
I've said it before and I'll say it again.
I honestly belive that every day that they wake up is another day of spritual torment for them. They have to look at every event as some form of justification for the coming Rapture in order to get through the day.
Amanda "You know, we should take a field trip and go to all these guys houses and blow a trumpet outside the window, just to see them run around frantically. "
Funny you should mention that, there's actually some guy who goes around blowing on a trumpet in my neighborhood every so often. Now I know why.:)
What the fuck are you talking about you arrogant toad? YOU FUNDIE IDIOTS are the one's who put these lying slimeball war-profiteer, economy wrecking GOP bozos in office. EVERYONE with good sense, who isn't Republican toadie, an idiot, a Bush Dimbulb fan, or FOXGOPNEWS watcher(yeah I know. all four of those are redundant) knows that we are in economic decline thanks to tax-breaks to the rich, ill-thought out prolonged warfare expenses, and disastrous sweetheart deals to Bush supporters at tax-payer expense. It has nothing to do with the non-scriptural rapture cult, it has everything to do with an apathetic electorate, lying politicians and stupid one-issue fundie voters.
You might want to think about why only rapture-minded Christians and financial gurus see that the country is on the decline. Here's a hint; it's because rapture-minded Christians are crazy, and financial gurus are pretending to be crazy so that they can sell you things.
Yeah, "WEEEE". Because we all know how fun destitution is. Listen, just because you're stupid, don't drag the rest of us down with you.
"It's funny but only rapture-minded Christians and financial gurus seem to be aware of this."
To be fair, that is funny.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
