Default Whats the deal with RaptureReady?

Someone pointed me to raptureready.com for a good laugh. I was closer to crying then laughing after seeing that site. Do all those people expect to be taken away in the next couple months or so? They are all like :' AAHH , THIS EVIL WORLD WILL END SOON WHAAAAA".
I haven't seen such a high density of looney tunes in years....

It struck me from the very first moment I heard it, how Christian forums such as RaptureReady and BaptistBoards ban all those who don't toe the line of "correct faith".

The forums are, in a way, a microcosm of the different societies: under a secular society, all citizens have rights of free speech and free thought, including Christians; but under a Christian society, all but the Christians would be oppressed.

All but the Christians would be oppressed--I think you're being overly optimistic there! All but the flavor of Christians who would be in charge would be oppressed--unless you got some of those loopy liberals who are all "tolerant". Fortunately, we all know that loopy liberals are not real Christians anyway, so there would be a fat chance of that happening.

Thankfully, there are plenty of Christians who recognize the need for a secular society in order to promote liberty.

That's why the Baptists aided the framing of the Constitution in the first place.

1 Thessalonians 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

It's "the mile club."

They caught me into their snare for a while, but I give up. They were making me sick with their bigotry and ignorance. It's a given that Christians think things are sinful, but I would think a true Christian would be more like Helen or Tibac. These people are the type who blow up abortion clinics, me thinks...,

The "When Monsters Marry" article was first posted in there, BTW. The good RR people were agreeing and talking bs about the gays, and blah, blah, blah...

We won't be flying in the air, its instantaneous - in the twinkling of an eye. One minute at your computer, then before your next thought or breath, you are with Jesus for eternity.
