(A thread about people reading the forum 'after the Rapture')
"people left behind will be reading our posts. Isn't that exciting?!! If there are any of you who feel like you are not good at witnessing, this should give you comfort. Who knows how many souls will turn to our Saviour after the rapture, just by reading our testimonies! Praise God! He is so awesome to use the internet this way!!!"

If jesus really came back to earth and numerous "saved" individuals from all over the world were suddenly wisked away into the clouds, that would be sufficient to convince even us pool, deluded rationalists. Why would anyone need to read you convoluted, poorly written "testimonies," you arrogant snot?
Praise God! He is so awesome to use the internet this way!
Well, that;s pretty much how things went back in the day. Something happened and they liked it. Therefore god willed/did it.
"I'm still convinced the rapture has already happened and Jesus left the fundies behind because they're embarrassing."
Funny you should mention that, because it also speaks in revelations of the 144,000 "elect" (side note: the jehovah's witnesses claimed that they were the 144,000 elect right up to the point that the organization's membership reached 145,000). Let's say for the sake of argument that the so-called rapture happens tomorrow morning. There are currently 6.5 billion humans on the planet. I'm not even gonna do the goddamn math to figure out what percentage 144,000 is of 6.5 billion; but you don't have to be a nuclear physicist to know that it's a tiny fucking percentage.
144,000 people could disappear from this planet and no one would even notice. At all. And if the standard is truly as high as the fundies have it, there probably are only a 144,000 out of 6.5 billion who live up to it. In other words, getting into heaven is tantamount to winning the fucking powerball. Good goddamn luck with that salvation plan.
Ah, DarthFurious , if only the fundies would read your post. Wonder what they would think of their chances?
I want to know what they are doing writing 'testimonials' on the internet after they are raptured. Shouldn't they be all happy in their mansions, playing with their puppies and surfing with Jesus?
AbidingInNonsense, put it this way: if the Rapture really did happen, I'd likely be pretty convinced that your God does exist ... until I stumble across Rapture Ready and read all of your nonsense posts, in which case I'd decide your God is a load of hogwash after all.
So I guess Satan's responsible for about the other 90 percent of the internet.
Oh, and if the rapture actually happens (giggle), who's to say it's God and not just a highly advanced alien race or something? I think there's some principle about that... that we couldn't tell the difference between God and something extremely advanced but still natural.
I thought everybody left behind was screwed? Given that, I'll be too busy partying and enjoying my last 7 years out of Hell to read your fucking posts. That is, if the Rapture ever actually happens, which it's not going to.
*sigh*
I can imagine a world where the fundies have been raptured away. Why doesn't that happen already?
Take an unsubstiantiated belief in a deity, imagine something about it that sounds 'neat', and then praise the deity for the perceived fantastical thought.
You people are nuts.
(un)Truth : "We who post at Rapture Ready thank you for spreading our testimonies! You may try to mock them, but either way the truth is getting out!"
Hey, if it makes you feel good to pretend that seeing your ridiculous "testimonies" held up to scorn will somehow persuade people of your Truth, keep it up - we can always use more of your stuff here at FSTDT. Thanks for playing!
people left behind will be reading our posts
...and laughing their asses off. Of course, since the Rapture is fiction - not even mentioned in your Bible, is it? - I don't think we'll even get that break.
And Truth? I don't think anyone here has converted to your way of thinking from reading posts on FSTDT. I know of at least one person that has converted from your way of thinking, though.
Keep on not thinking, though. I'm sure you'll go far.
"I'm still convinced the rapture has already happened and Jesus left the fundies behind because they're embarrassing."
I'd believe that too, except that I know my grandma would be taken if that rapture stuff was real. She's an actual, true Christian. All about love, not hate.

...and after watching the Nic Cage Kamikaze attack that was the "Left Behind" redux, those people will give you Cumfart. The 12th Doctor knows how many arseholes will turn into Cybermen just by reading your testicles. Praise Celestia, Haruhi and the Holy Bettie! They are - in the words of Rainbow Dash - Awesome ! But not that 'He' has to rely on something created by Atheists (Turing, Clarke, Gates/Jobs/Torvalds) and a heretic Unitarian Universalist (Berners-Lee).
Besides: why are you lot still here ...?! >:D
@Firthy2002
"Who says you're getting Raptured?"
Those on Ruptured Retards had a Category 4 twister in their collecive knickers about the TV series "The Leftovers", and how it was further reducing the credibility in the public eye of their precious (C)Rapture. Especially how, in that scenario, there were Atheists who had been 'taken up'.
Because it's not as if Harold Camping had been equally successful: twice , eh Raptards...?!
@ Anon-e-moose
and the Holy Bettie!
Ahh, Ms. Page, of course. Yes. Yesss!
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
