Every member of that site is in severe, DESPERATE need of psychiatric evaluation and treatment, ASAP.
They're all gonna turn suicidal when their delusion fails to come true.
You're so brainwashed. I really feel for you.
@Dark_Lord_Prime: Yeah it's really sad they're all depressed and freaking out and worried about their fellow man for something that won't even happen [though it would be kinda awesome]
Junebug, you don't have to wait for the rapture. We'll pass a hat and get you a one way ticket to Iraq, Syria, Iran or Afghanistan where you can boldly preach the good news until you become martyred.
"why am i longing for the Rapture?..... because i have an absolute ZERO interest in anything this sin-sick world has to offer......nadda"
SUUUUUIIIIIICCCCCCIIIIIIIDDDDDDEEEEEE.
What was that? I think it was just (kill yourself) the wind, but I can't be (meet Jesus now) quite sure.
Sleep, child. Sleep. Do not dwell too much on (slitting your wrists) your problems. Just rest, and meet (your maker) another day.
"when i want to scream at these people......"do you know that Jesus is coming"???? "DO YOU"?"
I hope her manager lets her do that. It would make shopping so much more interesting if you had to work out which cashier looked most likely to fling herself howling across the counter and jam fistfuls of Chick tracts down the front of your shirt.
I would go shopping dressed as a Buddhist monk, just to make her spontaneously combust.
So, basically....if you die, EVERYONE WINS!!!! You want to get away from us, and we want you to leave....NOW!
Can we change the bible so that suicide is not a mortal sin?
Seriously, how is RR any different than those anorexic sites?
......i have to force myself everyday of the week at work, to do what my company thinks is "the most important thing in the whole world"....
Flippin' 'em burgers, pushing the fries.
"They're all gonna turn suicidal when their delusion fails to come true."
And that would be bad, how exactly?
Dear Junebug,
You are letting your human side get the best of you. Remember, Jesus came and died and was resurrected for not only our sins, but because He loves us. Yes loves(present tense) not loved(past tense). I was having these same feelings not to very long ago. I was feeling like we are living in the end times and just wishing to hasten it on. Not by killing myself, No not killing myself, but disconnecting from the world. Just going and living a homeless life and waiting. Then while meditating and praying, a still small voice came to me. Live every day as if it's my last. Make sure I tell the people in my life I love them everyday. Be happy and know that I am loved. I know I could not appreciate the good times, without having experienced the bad times. Don't let your human side drag you down. Remember and relish in your spiritual side. All you can do is witness to your fellow human beings. If they see doubt, impatience, despair, and hopelessness from you. Then they will feed on it. They will say things like you are crazy and tell you to kill yourself. All you can do is try to plant the seeds of Jesus' love in fertile ground. All you can do is be happy and rejoice in His second coming, whenever that may be. If you don't believe what I am saying that is fine. Just please, please, pray, meditate, and speak with your pastor, or spiritual mentor on these feelings you have been having. So you can come to your own understanding.
Er . . . it's nada.
When you say "Have a nice day," why not try meaning it?
And do keep up the good work by not screaming "Jesus is coming" at people. Otherwise you might get locked up in a room with bars on the window and a pot in the corner.
But seriously, junebug, see a doctor.

@lilabadge
Is that being satirical/Poe? If so, funny stuff, if not, dude... just no... having a human side is a GOOD thing. Having religion strip that away and make you want to die is a very very bad thing. Junebug needs a reality check and psychiatric help as opposed to more religious indoctrination...
I kind of have to force myself to go to work every day too; it's not the most exciting or enjoyable way to spend a day but given that I have needs, like food, clothing and shelter, it's not the worst way in the world to spend 40 hours a week either.
But, when the day is over and I am done working, I have a life to live; Husband, family, friends, hobbies, interests - all kinds of things that contribute to the enjoyment of this one life I have.
You are wasting the one life you have. When you're dead, you won't know the difference, but really...why take that chance?
You truly are mentally ill. It wouldn't take much to push you over the edge into a screaming, drooling maniacal state, would it?
I predict we'll be seeing this one on the news sometime soon, folks. If I were one of her children I'd be very nervous, wondering if she would snap and kill me by blunt force trauma or just take me out sneaky-like in my sleep.
I want to mock her, I do...but it's just so sad that a person can get so wrapped up in a religion that she can clamp her eyes shut to all the beauty and wonder this world holds, crouch in the corner, praying for her "miserable existence" to end. It's truly, truly sad.
junebug, get yourself a lawyer and sue the people who crippled you with this spiritual poison... Your parents, elders, etc.
Be brave. They all deserve to be reamed.
You know, I am the worst kind of atheist (anti-theist, in fact), but cases like this are so sad that I feel they deserve more pity than scorn.These people really need help.
i have to force myself everyday of the week at work, to do what my company thinks is "the most important thing in the whole world"
I have to admit that there are many days when I can sympathize with this part.
With the rest, though, not so much.
If Rapture Ready were a physical location, it would be a great service to its inhabitants to spike its water supply with Prozac.
~David D.G.
How do you get these people to admit they need help? They have formed a support group where this is the norm and they actively avoid any help given. I am sure if a member came to them and said that they were now on antidepressants and feeling much better about the world, the rest of the group would turn on that person like a pack of rabid hyenas.
Oh and there is nothing in the bible that says suicide is wrong.
"Sin-sick" world? You see, a person who is well adjusted, has a rational mind, and some faith will find plenty of good things around. I realize that most people at RR believe that this life is pointless, but think about this: why are you here?
To prepare for your next life with God? That's pointless. According to the Psalms within the Old Testament, God knows your heart before you do. He has no need to test or prepare you.
"I would go shopping dressed as a Buddhist monk, just to make her spontaneously combust."
Now, is that really worth shaving your head for?
Of course this is nothing like all those other cults which systematically go about severing their member's ties to the outside world, causing them to hate their own life and rely solely upon the cult for the basic human needs most people get from interaction with the outside world. This is nothing like that because .... well, ummm because you're right !! Aren't you ???
You're in Koresh's commune Junebug, you're in the Heaven's gate mansion. you're in Jonestown. Get out before they start passing out the kool aid.
Oh, FFS, just Rapture yourself already. Better yet, why don't you just have your little psychotic break at work and give us all something entertaining in our evening news. Please.
Please kill yourself, society will thank you for it.
Oh and i hear the suicide is a sin, so are all the other sins......
"Amen, I say to you, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see that the kingdom of God has come in power." (Mark 9:1 NAB)
Jesus promised his followers he'd return during THEIR LIFETIMES. Jesus stood right in front of his friends and followers and said, "leavin guise brb."
Jesus is not going to save you from your problems. Get over it.
Working at Mcdonlalds makes people suicidal, religious or both.
Psychologically imbalanced either way.
Two comments:
1. I feel desperately sorry for her - she's obviously extremely clincially depressed, and as others have said, is in totally the wrong place to be given a reality check on that.
2. And they say that atheists have no purpose in life ... ?
to do what my company thinks is "the most important thing in the whole world"....smile.."thank you very much"...."have a nice day"..
(Wal*Mart greeter, how much ya wanna bet?
@ jc
What a waste of a life.
I agree. I have to do this from time to time at Home Depot, but only for an hour at a time. Still, I do fantasize about rescue during the ordeal, but damn if it's about any Jesus.
(Come on, CatWoman, get me outta here. Sheena, Queen o' the Jungle, where are you? Ahhh, Zeus! Only 59 minutes to go...)
Well, you've got a couple of choices. 1) Fight to get yourself out of this slump, because there's more to life than this sanity-gobbling stew of depression, job hating, and apathy. 2)Drink the Kool-Aid.
As much as I tend to loathe the RR board, I'm sort of hoping you pick the first one.
If your work is so pointless, and the world is going to end any day; why don't you quit and go into voluntary work? Like a soup-kitchen for homeless people? You can probably eat there too. As the world is going to end, according to you, you don't have to have any savings or properties. Put your money where your mouth is and help the poor during the last days of this world. The Salvation Army will probably even let you witness to the homeless people while you give them soup.
Or, seek psychiatric councelling for that clinical depression. Maybe do both.
And lay off the looong ellipses, please.
OMG, you work retail?
No wonder you want the whole world to end.
That sucks.
This is why i try to be polite to even the clerks under training. They make mistakes, we all do. And they have to listen to Maria Carey for the next 10 weeks.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
