Weird...
According to the Bible no man, no angel, not even Jesus Christ himself knows when the rapture will be...
Huge fan of whoever convinced them to blame it on trump not releasing the Epstein files tho.

You know what? Sure. As long as they have a reason to release the files I'm down to support it.
What if the rapture did happen but none of them were worthy?
Wow, covid was an extremely shitty rapture.
Oh, please no. I so desperately want humanity (and the planet) to be rid of these people.
Then the muslims take their place
Bro is totally not racist and brings up Muslim faith unannounced, fucking weirdo
We are hused to him. He's a well known prat.
People of any race can be Muslim. When someone says "Christians are all crazy" do we say that they're racist towards white people just because the majority of Christians are white?
So then why is it that when someone implies that Muslims are all crazy we assume that that is racism at work?
And it's not exactly a random thing to bring up. Rapture is supposedly going to apply to Christians so even if it did happen, theoretically the Muslims would be left behind, and so in the context of the comic posted that says all the religious wackos are gone, he's pointing out that they wouldn't all be gone.
I'm lost on what is racist about this. Could you please explain?
What has Islam got to do with Race? I'm just saying that getting rid of Christians won't make the earth into an atheist haven. Islam will logically take it's place as it's the second biggest religion.
The hell has this got to do with race???
Hang on lads, I've got an idea.

Or what if the rapture happened and the only creature deemed to fit the criteria was a single highly surprised but very chill about it capybara?
Specifically this dude:

"With God all things are possible... Except the Epstein files, even God can't help you there."
I just realized...GOD is in the Epstein Files. Oh, it all makes so much sense now!
It all started with the virgin Mary, then God couldn't help himself and created Epstein so he didn't feel so alone in His diddling!
List of dates predicted for apocalyptic events
If the definition of insanity is doing the same thing and expecting different results, then the people who anticipated this latest failed prediction are absolutely, frothing at the mouth, street corner screaming certifiable.
But then I think we all already knew that.
In 2011 one of the skeptic magazines published a form saying something like, "I hereby bequeath all my worldly goods to the bearer of this note on [day after the world was supposed to end]." Obviously a joke, but I wonder how many doomsday-ers were confident enough to sign on the dotted line?
I doubt many because you never, ever, hear of any of these rapture folks giving away all their money and stuff. never. Oh it's going to happen...but just in case...
Not quite the same, but when my wife was a kid, some of her hardcore fundie neighbors ran up MASSIVE loan and credit card debts on the lead-up to one of these rapture dates in the '90s. They thought that since they would soon be chilling with Jesus in Heaven they wouldn't have to face financial consequences. It financially ruined them and they lost everything.
Huh. Isn’t that the Sin of Greed then? Seems even if there had been a rapture they self-selected out.
I stopped trying to rationalize these people's 'reasoning' a long time ago.
I mean, I understand it. I think it’s stupid, but I understand it.
They believe Good is something you are, not something you do. So anything they do is Good, because they’re Good. If a Bad Person does the same thing, say, running up debt; they did something Bad, because Bad People only do Bad things.
checks list Cool, the one I added (and documented) is still listed.
Somewhere, one single person was raptured and wondering where everyone else is. No one else noticed their absence. But the rapture did happen.
“Just me? Really?”
The rapture happened ages ago, but none of us went to heaven. We're staying along for the ride.
Because it's impossible to be good, in the words of Eleanor Shellstrop: "There's this chicken sandwich that if you eat it, it means you hate gay people. And it's delicious!"
I'm sorry but Chick-fil-A is bland as fuck and I'll never understand why people love it so much. The chicken is always dry, the sauce selection sucks, and the lettuce & tomato are always warm & soggy. I just don't get it. Even by fast food standards, the quality is shit. I've been to multiple locations and they're all the same.
It's too bad there's only one fried chicken restaurant in existence
Simply do this for every product you buy, or go to the Bad Place.
I feel like you can keep track of the ones actively doing genocide and famous for it when they're just one franchise instead of a megaconglomerate that makes everything under two hundred different labels.
Go to Popeyes instead of getting in line with the rest of the WASPs, it's not a big ask.
The one raptured dude was super high on fent so they assumed it was an OD.
Every time the rapture doesn't happen they seem more convinced that it will happen in the future.
I really should get into the property market around the time the next rapture announcement comes out because surely they'll be selling all their houses off right. If you timed it right you could go on a really expensive holiday and save money by not paying for a return flight.
I think I saw someone selling "rapture insurance" a while a go. Iirc they pay a one time fee to get on a registry and they would go around and collect pets that didn't get raptured with their owners.
Don't forget the annual renewal fee, by automatic withdrawal. Make it expensive, and do it just before Christmas.
That sounds like a nice little grift to get into. Usually I have to reject these ideas because I have a moral compass, but I might be able to ignore it to fleece gullible MAGA religious freaks. I don't mind separating the money from racist, pedophile traitors.
What? But the rapture was last night, didn't anyone tell them?
Every time the rapture doesn't happen they seem more convinced that it will happen in the future.
That has to be some sort of Logical Fallacy. If the rapture hasn't happened yet, then it stands to reason that it must happen in the future. That part isn't in doubt, it's the actual date that is controversial.
I mean, assuming you believe the rapture is real in the first place. You have to make that illogical leap first.
It's like a variant on the Gamblers fallacy. They believe there's a chance, and so every failure means a success is closer
It sounds so stupid when you break it down like that.
And yet the gambler's fallacy hits pretty hard to a lot of people. I know I struggle with it. We as a species tend to organize our world in the form of narrative and intents. Randomness kinda fucks with us in that regard.
That said, the rapture part is stupid. But there's also more to it. When Prophecy Fails is a famous book on the topic
They are more convinced. "When prophecy fails" was first published in 1956, it's well documented.
In our era, a new way of winning the race to be the British Newspaper with the most Journalistic Integrity appeared: just stand still as a tabloid with little or no Journalistic Integrity whilst everybody else just runs by you in the opposite direction of "better" on their way to Pure Propagand Outlet.
After the rapture failed to happen on Tuesday
be the change you want to see in the world
