Oh nooooeeess! I've been . . . .


LEFT BEHIND!!!!!
I'd rather laugh with the sinners than die with the saints. The sinners are much more fun.

Besides, all the religious talk in heaven would drive me nuts. Heaven sounds like hell to me.
Religion is for people whose existential fear is greater than their common sense. It's also the favored cover for hypocrites.

One of the interesting things I've noticed about the Rapture, is that both those who believe in it, and those who don't believe in it, hope that those that believe in it are taken.

I would prefer that their belief in the Rapture would be raptured.

Penny Arcade comic about today’s predicted big event.

Penny Arcade is a long-running webcomic and blog about games. I think the producers make most of their money from running the associated annual PAX gaming conferences/festivals at various spots around the world.

So, I just got back from Heaven. Yup, I was raptured, surprisingly. It’s actually not that bad ‘up’ there. Lots of buffets, you do get to keep your tingly bits, and golf courses. Yes. God likes to golf, so there are golf courses everywhere.

Anyway, I decided to come back because the conversations were mainly centered around praising Jesus and what kind of apartment one has - spoiler alert, everyone has basically the same apartment (3 bed and 3(!) bath). Oh, and people can watch the NFL! I guess God liked it enough when players would praise Him after a nice play or win that He sanctioned watching the NFL. Go figure.

I didn’t see Jesus, but I’m sure He’s there despite his politics. Oh, and God is a huge MAGA fan. I even saw people walking around with yellow hats emblazoned with, “Make Heaven Great Again.” They’re only twenty bucks at the gift shop.

You still need a bathroom after you're dead?

Again... doesn't sound like heaven. I do buy the yellow hats, though.

LMAO (seriously... I'm still chuckling)

Yeah, so that was poorly worded. I'm only buying the idea that yellow hats are popular in heaven.

Yellow's not my color.

Isn’t every shot a hole-in-one?

Wouldn’t that get boring after a while? But I suppose that it would speed things up a bit, at least.

I bet god likes to bellow "FORE!!" a lot in that foreboding god voice he does when he's handing out commandments and stuff.
