[On being called selfish for wanting to be raptured because of loved ones that would end up in hell]
It's not selfish for the Bride to want to be with her Bridegroom. Or to want the children now under the age of accountability to be spared the ravages of this increasingly wicked world, in which they will have little hope of growing up to be Christians, thanks to an increasingly wicked school system and governments. Or to want Israel to be brought to the point where it will, at last, recognize its Messiah, so that Jesus can finally come back and bring permanent peace to Israel and the whole Middle East.
Besides, Jesus is going to award a crown to those who love His appearing!

I'd say you are a self rightous selfish ass as well, but then you mentioned a crown.
I mean, yeah, you want the world to end, for 99% of humanity to burn in the everlasting fires of hell, and for the children to die while they are innocent so as not to be corrupted by this cruel misguided world, but on the other hand, you do get a crown.
How do I get in on this crown deal?
Wow...did you just compare yourself Jesus's bride? Either that is incredibly arrogant, or I am missing something...
It is still selfish to want to be Raptured off when those children that you wish to spare the ravages of education, are not guaranteed to come with you! To say nothing of the way that your mindset, if imposed upon your children, restricts the way that they interact with the world for the short amount of time that you presume them to remain here...
Ohhh...a crown! Now it all makes sense! Okay, go ahead, keep yourself huddled in the basement, preaching to homeschool fundie-spawn, waiting for Jesus to burn the Earth to the ground, never admitting to yourself how vindicative your mindset of desiring an escape from the mortal realm truly is. It's alright...because you are rewarded with something shiny!
Jesus: "I'm sorry, you're not Jewish... I'm afraid you'll just have to stay on earth"

"It's not selfish for the Bride to want to be with her Bridegroom"
Let me tinker with this analogy in the name of accuracy:
"It's not selfish for the Bride to want to be with her Bridegroom when the Bridegroom has arranged for people to crash the reception with flamethrowers and infict an agonising death on all of the guests."
Sounds like a 6-year-old's birthday party. Bride dress-up, children, crowns...
How pathetic, so many adults emotionally arrested before they were old enough to give up belief in such things as Santa, the Tooth Fairy, and imaginary friends.
Listen, kgreen, crowns aren't worth the papier-mache they're made of. Choose the plastic one with the rhinestones, instead.
I want a gold crown, not too heavy though so I can wear it all the time.
I don't want the same crown as everyone else though, because I'm special!
This doesn't mean some crappy hat made out of cardboard or thorns either.

I bet you a tacco and big mac with fires your goning to grow old and gray before the rapture ever happens and i bet a sado and 10 bucks it wont even come. And the very sad and hsorrdiable thing aobut that is when you relizes it ot commming and your death bed .ANd it hit you like a truck full of brinks you wasted the best year of life waitng for ht end the world and now the the only end the come is your own . ..
Methinks kgreen20 is butt-ugly and grossly overweight. She had no chance of being prom queen and dreams of the day Jeebus will give her a cheap plastic tiara. Her only hope of getting any male attention is when teh Rupture comes (pun unintentional, for the filthy minds out there) so let's not spoil her delusion.
On the other hand, she's an arrogant, cold, unfeeling bitch so let's tear her to shreds!
I'm getting a tiara, a necklace AND a bracelet when the Flying Spaghetti Monster comes back. Hey, if we're being materialistic, we should go with the better deal...
wait.. what? free gift with rapture?
is this like one of those, "I died and went to Heaven, but all I got was this stupid crown" sort of things?
Yay for crowns that have absolutely no purpose!
I think that, according to Revelations, they just go to Jesus' feet anyway, so they're still just getting stuff so they can suck it up to the Big Guy. I thought they weren't supposed to be concentrating on Earthly riches?
Oh yeah, forgot about Heaven being full of gold and stuff. Damn one-track minds.
They get a CROWN?? Shit, I'm joining up, then! Didn't know I got a fucking CROWN out of the bargain. That's a real clincher!
Besides, Jesus is going to award a crown to those who love His appearing! So in the end, it does indeed come down to selfishness...
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
