Just When I Think I've Seen Everything...

This site has me flummoxed. Is it a gag, or are they serious?

The time of the rapture is at hand. The signs described in the Bible that foreshadow the return of Jesus Christ are becoming all too clear. Not all who live during coming Great Tribulation will be spirited away to be with God. The Bible tells us that only those who repent of their sins and follow the teachings of Jesus Christ may enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Do you know someone who is in danger of being "left behind" because of a sinful life? Imagine if you could write a letter to a friend or loved one after the Great Day of Reckoning. Maybe a message to your family telling them to trust in God, and that everything will be okay. Perhaps you would leave instructions to care for your pets after your departure. It could be that your message is the light that opens a sinner's eyes to the Glory of God and allows them entrance to Heaven during the trials before the Second Coming. This is where the Post-Rapture Post comes in.

Can these people be prosecuted or sued for soliciting money under false pretenses? Christians believe in the Rapture, but athiests obviously do not. So, in their mind, these people are taking money for services they don't think they will ever have to deliver. I've seen people arrested for drug abuse even though the "drug" they were using was powdered sugar or something. Apparently, there is legal precedent that if someone THINKS they are commiting a crime, then it's a crime. Time for our resident lawyer to weigh in.

Tonto said...: It is a joke. It doesn't make any sense. Why would someone want to send a letter to their loved ones telling them about God when it is already too late and He's returned and left without them. This company mails the letters after they are gone, and if that many people are gone I do not think anyone needs to send a letter announcing it. You would only send a letter to rub it in.

Anyway the message of God is not for later...you tell them NOW...if you believe in the Rapture...once the Rapture happens "it's over" as they say. The idea is to take your loved ones with you.

Typical people trying to make fun of religious conservatives about a religion they just don't bother to understand...and I am sure every time they get a letter they feel like they have won.

Anyway wouldn't you just leave a letter around tthe house like a will?

By the way...it is legal unless you can show that they just burn the letters or the business really isn't "set up." but the premise of the business is legal...it's legal to throw your money at stupid things...think pet rocks.; 6:00 AM

I long for the days of Dragnet, when Sgt. Joe Friday worked in the bunco squad and was able to haul even palm readers off to jail.; 6:47 AM

I don't use talking points, I create them.

25 Immutable Truths About Liberals

Over the years I've been writing this blog, I've been throwing out little self-evident truths that seem to have no exceptions that prove the rule. I've made a list of some of them and will add to it as I remember them or make up more. Most of this list I've come up with myself. A few I've borrowed from others.

1. Always expect the worst from a liberal and you will never be surprised.

2. Never try to reason with a liberal. They disregard any evidence that conflicts with their beliefs.

3. You can always tell what liberals are up to by what they accuse conservatives of doing.

4. Liberals don't debate, they argue.

5. The only standards liberals have are double standards.

6. Liberals feel, conservatives think.

7. Whenever you don't understand a liberal's motives, just look for the money.

8. Liberals cannot be embarrassed. They lack the gene to blush.

9. The Liberal Golden Rule is, "Do unto others but scream bloody murder if they do unto you."

10. Liberals don't have leaders, they have demi-gods.

11. There are no honest liberals. If they were honest -- especially to themselves -- they would be conservatives.

12. A liberal's business is nobody's business, but everyone's business is a liberal's business.

13. Liberals have an inflated sense of self-worth. They are like house flies that criticize the air-worthiness of a Stealth fighter. (Sarah Palin, George W. Bush, ad infinitum are morons.)

14. Liberals lack a sixth sense that conservatives have in abundance -- common sense.

15. Liberals never stop hating.

16. There are only two types of liberals -- the deceivers and the deceived. The difficulty is telling them apart.

17. Every time liberals get on their high horse, they get bucked off.

18. Liberal programs are so wonderful that they have to be forced on people.

19. Liberals always choke on their own medicine.

20. When given a moral choice, liberals always come down on the wrong side of the fence.

21. The only way liberals can build themselves up is by tearing others down.

22. Liberals not only refuse to learn from their mistakes, they refuse to admit them.

23. Liberals have only two political positions -- blind devotion and blind hatred.

24. Liberals are incapable of attacking the message, so they always attack the messenger.

25. Liberal diversity is only skin deep.
