I want to know how the "world" is gonna "end" exactly. Whole planet splodes? We all become zombies? Internet becomes sentient?

The end is clearly going to follow the date line and respect the time zones.

People who quit their jobs, alienate their families, and spend all of their money waiting for the end of the world get exactly what they deserve. Feel bad for that one idiot couple's kids, though.

The true Christian believers — he hopes he's one of them — will be "raptured": They'll fly upward to heaven. And for the rest?
"It's just the horror of horror stories," he says, "and on top of all that, there's no more salvation at that point. And then the Bible says it will be 153 days later that the entire universe and planet Earth will be destroyed forever."
Wow, they must really thing god is a complete cunt.

I looked at some survivalist/apocalypse-is-nigh usenet stuff in January 2001 or maybe it was early blogs I don't remember, people were coming in to go DON'T YOU FEEL LIKE A BUNCH OF DUMBASSES NOW and there was something sad & moving about how these guys just weren't about to say "yeah I feel a little dumb." They were very, look, I was ready in case something had happened, that's what matters, I feel proud that I was prepared to provide for myself & my family etc etc etc
that will be these dudes' take when nothing goes down

the answer acc to the book btw: they dig in deeper, find explanations for why it didn't come to pass, invent new calculations, and some of them drift off from the cult and never return sometimes finding other things to believe
or they say they made a mathematical error (15)

Exley says she hopes more people will check the Bible verses themselves.
She says: "If you still want to say we're crazy, go ahead. But it doesn't hurt to look into it."

There are no rebirths or do-overs. The world is not going to 'end'. If you are deluded enough to think otherwise, it is because you are fucking stupid enough to think the world revolves around you and others like you, and arrogant enough to believe that there is a supreme being that cares more about you and yours than any other of the 6.5 billion skinbags who also live here.

So this guy says The Chosen (3% of the planet) get evacuated on May 21st but the rest of the world is destroyed on Oct 21st. If he is still around post-May 21st doesn't that mean by his own definition he is a tool of Satan?

no, it'll mean God "has a special plan for him" that miraculously doesn't get mentioned in Scripture

"God says, 'Do you love husband or wife over me? Do you love son or daughter over me?' There is a test. There is a trial here that the believers are going through. It's a fiery trial."
So why on Earth have you not renounced all your worldly possessions in favor of a life of helping the poor and advocating non-violence and Universal Christly Love? You really think renouncing your family and TV set in the final hours is going to fool an omnipresent and omniscient deity?

wynnsmom December 15th, 2012, 07:59 PMMy guess - We'll hear a trumpet and an irresistable call to "come on up" and whoosh we are excellerating heavenward. We will know exactly what is happening. It will seem like the most natural thing (as in not shocking that it is happening) thing. I suspect your thought will be, "I'm going home!"
