    Well the 21st has dawned and I'm still here, not sure what that means yet. I liked Michael Youseff's suggestion that the dill who proposed this donated all his money. Put your money where your mouth is, obviously he didn't do it

    I understand it is the 21st at 6pm Eastern Standard Time.
    About 19 hours to go at this point

    My boss at work said Rapture was not a valid reason for missing work.

    It is 6pm at each time zone - sort of a rolling rapture.

    The idiot also said that it was supposed to happen back in 1994... and we are still here.

    Perhaps HIS world should end, OR pick up another hobby.

    Well I have Crow marinading nicely.
    I wonder if I should do any sides or bread to go with it.

    How can you calculate that? Time in the US has no relevance to biblical events, tell your boss you will just go when the time comes. Just as it is impossible to calculate from the time of Christ's death or birth because neither are known with any accuracy

    Hi Wondergirl,

    I can answer that. By the time you read this it will be 8 pm. Clete and I are not that far from each other.

    Well I'm still here.

    Either there was no rapture or I'm a heathen. I guess that means it's time to party!

    I sincerely doubt the one that preached this on AMHD won't be back to have crow. I can't believe anyone with any sense whatsoever would fall for this stuff. It is embarrassing as a Christian. When this story made the news last night and they called the followers of Camp "Christian" I cringed. It makes Christianity look ridiculous. Geeeze. I'm shaking my head.

    Ah-HA!

    Thank you--you have now given me a perfect example to use when people stereotype ALL pagans to be like the ones they show on TV. I can now tell them that it's EXACTLY like stereotyping ALL Christians to be like Camping.

    In either case, both my hubby and I are still here, but it's only 11 AM here.

    And Chuck--I told my student workers that I expected them both to be at work on Monday, and that Rapture wasn't an excuse. I'd come drag their butts back down from Heaven if I had to.
