For those of you who did not see the end of the World Last May, the reason is either that you missed the Rapture or the event was postponed.
Did Jesus Leave you Behind too?
If you have studied anything about the Rapture, then you know that at some point in the future (according to Christian Theology) Jesus will descend from the Sky and take away all those who belong to him. Now according to this prophet, Jesus did not do that on May 21st 2011. But honestly folks! How does he know?
So while we sat and waited until the new date of October 21, 2011 - this coming Saturday - it turned out that the end of the world was going to occur just a few days shy, thanks to a Comet.
Feast of Tabernacles brings Comet Disaster on Sunday
It seems we just can't be happy unless we know that 'the end is nigh'. The End of the World was supposed to happen in May, but that got postponed until next week - October 21, 2011, but before that can happen, we have to go through the drama and devastation to be caused by the Comet Elenin
Well that didn't happen either apparently, so it's back to waiting for Saturday October 21st, and you know what that means don't you? It means I don't have to mark those essays my students gave me - unless of course the world really doesn't end on Saturday in which case I will be working my butt off on Sunday.
It is amazing how many people just can't wait for the end of the world.
After the earth blows up they are going to go around saying 'I told you so! - I told you so!'. Of course if it doesn't end they will walk around disappointed and depressed, looking for a reason as to why 'the end' was postponed. (They'll probably determine that those rotten greenhouse gasses blocked out the sun's radiation and ruined their prophetic utterances) Living by Faith in Science
Fundamentalists don't understand why no one will listen to their message. They don't get it do they? Jesus himself said that no one knows the day or hour of the end but these people in contradiction of the word of Jesus, insist that they better than he, know the fine print details of God's plan for the End of this World.
I guess if they keep predicting, they are sooner or later going to get it right! - Sorta like those evolutionists. Does anyone know where the new missing link is? mmm! Seem to have misplaced it.
