PADRE MICKEY SPEAKS

Read Padre Mickey's post on the rapture that didn't happen. What he writes is wise and compassionate. Besides, he posted the beautiful icon below.



Padre Mickey is not only fun and games and music, you know. He's a good priest and a good pastor. Read what he has to say.

OH NOOO! ROWAN WAS RIGHT!

Stolen from MadPriest at Of Course I Could Be Wrong.

UPDATE: Another rapture favorite from somegreybloke. I'm a little late with the video - or perhaps not. The Rev Camping was only certain of the day, not the hour. Thanks to Erika at Facebook.



And another from Countlight.

A ROLLING RAPTURE?

Starting in the Pacific rim at around 6:00 PM with a great earthquake? In these days of instant communication, won't we hear about it if the rapture doesn't happen in the Pacific rim? I'm just asking.

Instead of wasting my time searching for a rapture picture, I stole the scene above of the rapture in Dallas, Texas, from Counterlight. He posted a group of pics, and I liked the Dallas best. The scene is realistic, because it shows the wrecked cars. Of course, only the naughty left behind folks are apt to get hurt, so the wreckage doesn't matter. If you have the slightest doubt that you may be amongst those left behind, stay in your house until all is calm after the excitement.

As I said in the comments over there, "I guess right at the time when the big event is to happen, we should all put our arms in the air just in case...."

RAPTURE AND END OF THE WORLD COMING SOON

From WKRN.com:

The estimated 40 billboards were put up by Family Radio, a national Christian radio group.

A spokesperson for the radio station said they are very confident that their prediction is right.

"This date was developed from only Bible scriptures from the King James Bible and a lot of it are parts that people tend to overlook," Allison Warden told News 2.

From the website of Family Radio who sponsor the billboards:

This web site serves as an introduction and portal to four faithful ministries which are teaching that WE CAN KNOW from the Bible alone that the date of the rapture of believers will take place on May 21, 2011 and that God will destroy this world on October 21, 2011.

What about the children? Do these groups truly frighten their children this way. And that's not to speak of other people's children! And gullible adults!

Well, my readers, you can't say I didn't warn you - you know - just in case....

PS: Be careful when you drive on May 21, 2011. Perhaps those who are confident that they will be raptured will be thoughtful enough of the rest of us to stay off the roads. I hope so.

Thanks to Ann V. for directing me to the story.

UPDATE: Go to Ship of Fools. Jesus is furious about the leak. Read it all. There will be consequences.

Thanks to Ann for the link.
