[Replying to another Christian who thinks the rapture is a lie by Satan]
You really DO NOT know what you are talking about, so you can be forgiven.
The Rapture is one of the few things that Satan cannot emulate because God has made it Copy-Proof.
Satan has copied many things God does to fool and deceive people.
But the Rapture is one of those things Satan CANNOT reproduce or INTERRUPT once it begins.

He could always demon-possess a ton of people and force them to commit suicide, hiding all the evidence along the way to make it look like they just mysteriously disappeared.
And I know if that happened, it would be the most brilliant trolling of Christians ever in the the history of the universe.
So, what you're saying here, is...
Your all-powerful God can make the non-scriptural, non-canonical "rapture" copy-proof...
But he's apparently powerless to prevent one of his own creations (Lucifer/Satan/whatever) from copying EVERYTHING ELSE HE'S EVER DONE?
Satan may not be able to copy the Rapture, but he doesn't mind. God forgot to Copyproof(tm) the 2nd coming, so Satan is now preparing for his finest hour; having a copy of Jesus descend from a copy of heaven, only to burst out into a Rickroll as soon as all the faithful have gathered to worship him.
So, essentially what you're saying is that if Satan attempts to reproduce the rapture, he is in violation of the law. Then God is the complaining witness. God sues Satan for doing his devily deeds. Satan would then be found guilty on charges of plagiarising magic. What would his sentence be, 20 years in prison? Already better than hell. However, do you think that a prison is going to hold the Prince o' Darkness? Even a maximum security prison.
Hmm...
Satan has copied many things God does to fool and deceive people.
Including, if you know your pagan mythology, the whole Jesus story... before it supposedly happened. That's some feat of plagiarism.
Hey idiot; see how things read when you don't use proper punctuation?
many things God does to fool and deceive people.
Fuck it. I like it better this way.
Perhaps it is, seeing as the Rapture is an Evangelical invention only loosely based on some passages from Revelation, which is a clusterfuck of giant sun goddesses giving birth in front of dragons and people eating books in the first place.
"Quit copying me"
"Quit copying me."
"I'm telling!"
"I'm telling!"
"M-o-m! Satan's copying me!"
"Jesus Christ, you kids are driving me right up the goddamn wall!"
Copy-Proof? Pff, I I broke the DRM on the Rapture when I was 15, it wasn't even a challenge. Seriously, god should stop using the same numbers over and over again for everything, 7's 3's and 8's get boring after a while.

So if the two of them do all the same exact shit, WTF is the difference betwixt them? Satan's a cheater and a copier, that's why he's the evil one?
No - wait a minute - isn't god the one who smites whole civilizations for imagined slights? No wonder I saw through this crap when I was 8. Fuck, what took me so long?
I remember a friend's father, when I was a child got into this sort of crazy religion. He told us kids about this whole rapture deal, and how we were all going to be left behind (which backfired, coz we thought that was kinda exciting, and invented a game around the idea of having no adults around and cool stuff like fireballs falling from the sky... We were kind of looking forward to it) and how it was all I the bible. His daughter and I were best friends, and we scoured the bible from front to back- funnily enough, there was nothing about any rapture. At age 10, we thought to look things up to double check. At age 40 he hadn't.
I wonder how many fundies never thought to check if this stuff was in the bible? After all, they seem pretty adamant that it's the only allowable source of information on anything.
so you're saying that your god has a copyright on what is essentially according to you, the end of the world, ummm, ok?
“The Rapture is one of the few things that Satan cannot emulate because God has made it Copy-Proof.”
Okay, so stipulating that Satan cannot just lift a percentage of the population into the sky, he can still LIE.
Just cast a delusion in their heads that people are flying up into the sky.
Or alter their perception so that they just do not see 20$ of the people around them.
Or lie. Get TV anchors selling a story about hundreds of people in a far-off country flying up in the sky, and convince all Christains that they missed it.
Or any number of things beyond my imagining, because i’m not the supreme liar of the universe, OR Satan.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
