Will there be a Rapture Chat?


Quote by Borek View Post
Any results from Einstein?
My take is it should be like entering the event horizon.

http://motls.blogspot.com/2011/05/ra...oday.html#more gives an ingenious way for saintly PFers to avoid being raptured so you can continue to post on PF tomorrow.

18:00 local time, D-S. No telling if it sweeps across the earth like a sunrise or hits entire time-zones at once. The "prophet" wasn't too specific.

Didn't the prophet priest claim that it would happen 6pm "American standard time" even though no such thing exists?

It's not about not believing in it, it's about carving the date in stone. That's wholly man-made.

The Bible explicitly says that only God knows when it will occur.

Matthew 24:36 - Jesus is quoted saying; "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only"

You do realize this was just one small group of nuts, right? In fact, his prediction explicitly contradicted biblical teachings [no man can know the day or the hour, not even the son], so even devout believers didn't take him seriously.

Those nuts didn't think it applied to just them. By their accounting, Christians should have disappeared all over the planet, whether or not they believed today was the day. I'm not accusing all Christians of being nutty.

Maybe they did and no one here noticed.

I have a cousin who is an ordained minister and a rapture nut. I remember him giving us all sorts of weird predictions when I was a kid. Even then we kids knew he was nuts, and we were devout Catholics!

As Ivan says, it's just a few nuts.

And they were wrong.

Because they're nutty.
