If The Rapture happens, and you are busy arguing with Atheists and Deists, do you get left behind?

Topics: athiests, deists, the people who argue with them
Just wondering how that works?

No, what you get is a slap on the side of the head like your mom used to do when she couldn't get you into the car because you were fussing over something and she had to go...now.
"Don't make me call you again!"-
lmao

hahahahahahahahahahahaha
I love you Agit8r! -
Agit: You spelled atheist wrong which proves you're not a real atheist but a soul in distress. (I learned that in psych.101.)
Damn you corrected it. Maybe that proves I'm the one in distress.-
Don't make me reach back there and slap you, young man! Now get a move on! To the light with you! No dillydallying!
-
hey, I spelled Deists right, which all that really matters
-
Bloody Greek words, ruining our wonderful phonetic rules -- "i before e except when Ancient Greek...?" Forget the "...after c..." bit because, of course, "ancient" ignores that too. -
It's an interesting observsation though.

We all have eternal life and that's the great cosmic joke.
The Dream, the underlying element in Jnana Yoga or Advaitism. The Universe is a dream in the mind of God and, God plays all parts and pretends that God is not God.
The One becomes many to experience LOVE. It is nothing but a quest for LOVE, and throughout out time ( I use that term loosely) puts on the garb of billions of beings to experience this.
The journey from self to SELF, is the journey, where God gradually shakes off the ignorance and reclaims the Divinity, or basically is conscious of his/her/its Divine Reality - LOVE. Thus, the smile on the Buddha's face.
God is also a process. The mind is not the tool to analyze God, never was, never will be, it has limitations. God has to be experienced, not dissected by the limited human mind. So really, God hasn't gone anywhere, done anything, but is still seated in the same spot and has dreamed itself as ignorance.
Re: Why? The One becomes many to experience Love. It is nothing but a quest for Love, and throughout out time ( I use that term loosely) puts on the garb of billions of beings to experience love.
Only one life in this body, but again and again we return to live in a new body with no recollection of previous lives, until we stop clanging like cymbals and actually become LOVE.-
that's quite moving, and a little humbling... thanx TT

I used acouticguitarist's quick description because I thought is was an excellent little summary.
-
Hmmm very deep. I'm pretty sure i don't understand all of it, but it does sound good.
-
-
I won't be left behind. That's all I'm gonna say bout that. (I do a good forest gump) -
No, but you do.
-
is that what you tell your kids? 0_o
-
Earth worms work, too.

-
Now I know what distinguishes us from other animals: pointless discussions.
-
oh! burn! -
Usually coupled with alcohol or lack of coffee
-
I got the booze covered
-
-
Yea
-
Does this thread make since to anyone...I didn't think so
-
makes sense to me
-
my bad, I missed the verse where it said "Two women are blogging on a farcical thread, one will be taken"
-
It would,
-
-
I plan on being left behind to take the throne of earth.-
You're the anti-christ? I knew there was something about that lamp.
-
@DB
how are you going to get to vatican city? -
Rebecca- something like that.
Agit8r- I'll ride on the backs of one of my minions. -
I don't want to hear what you do with mingers!
-
You're right, you don't.
-
sounds like the abomination of desolation
-
That's one way to describe it
-
"the image of the Beast"?
trying to keep the apocolyptic theme going... work with me here V_V -
I don't want to get banned for saying it.
Just be sure you accept me as your leader. -
lamp comment^
-
Damn, I forgot about that comment.
-
Agit8r remembers everything... i know, it's a little evil
-
11 days ago means 10 days of other more important stuff
-
it activates on a hair trigger...
care to play Trivial Pursuit? -
Pass.
-
damn! should have asked before you knew
-
-
Will then both of you are losers because no one knows what happens in the rapture. or what it will be. or if there will be one. -
The Rapture - Whoo! Alright! Yeah Uh-Huh!

*Cough* Now that made me laugh.
-
LOL I'm in rapture, now. You just gave me my post for the day! (Dangit, no you didn't. I can't embed it. Back to the drawing board!) Wait, yes you did, they've got it on Grooveshark. I'll just link to the video. -
@celticmusicfan and legbamel
lol ... I'm glad you two appreciated it.
Here's another very short farcical one:
Are you ready?

I thought link dropping was against the rules.
-
We are allowed to post links that are for reference purposes and that's what I did. Also note that this is a farcical thread.
It's not a serious one based on discussion of the Rapture (disambiguation, which is an eschatalogical doctrine primarily held by Dispenationalists, and derived from a literal interpretation of 1 Thessalonians 4:15-17
If you take a close look at some other forum threads you will find some like for example, the "What do you know about Jesus?" thread are primarily a sharing of links to videos on the topic. -
@ tt,uh huh,and we can drop link for the purpose of the thread
-
Hi Holly,
This is a farcical thread and not a serious one. Also note that I have not posted any links to my own blog in this thread. I think I have accurately expanded on the intent and content of the guidelines for forum posting here
Relevant links Only

dropping a link to something relevant to the discussion is fine, I believe.
-
Totally, we don't want Christians arguing with anyone on the spacecraft, they'll scare some of the smaller species who aren't use to it -
Are they good debaters?-
Only the Masterdebaters. -
Well then you're doomed!
-
who?
-
obviously people who are into 'masterdebation' o_0
-
All of you.
-
so... you think we are good debaters?
-
i am a good debater
-
-
i don't know -
I think God said he's taking me first so it won't matter who I'm arguing with-
Don't you lose by default, if you zoom off to the afterlife in the middle of a debate?
-
yup. but even if I lost the arguement at least I won't be smited
-
No, you have infinite amount of time to prepare your arguments.
-

Wherever we're going, I am going too. Dang it! Pearly Gates lose their luster after awhile. Streets of Gold wouldn't be bad - if I had a 5th floor fire escape overview. Watch what other people do when they get bored wearing wings and run out of tunes to play on their harps. Of course the sun reflecting off the Gold Streets would bug me after a while. So I would probably only hang on the fire escape platform for an eternity or two. Don't know what I'd do then.-
Nah. Earth is but God's footstool, Heaven is his palace. If he can make his lowly footstool this interesting, I'm sure he can keep heaven far more so.
-
Isn't heaven supposed to be staring adoringly into the face of god for all eternity?
-
No, God don't like sloths.
-
It's this crazy deal, but they sent up rockets, and guess what? There's space up there!
*headdesk* -
LOL.
-
"Earth is but God's footstool,"
so all the floods, plagues, natural calamities, mass destruction is due to an itch in his feet?
He should go see a good dermatologist -
@dsriharsha: Would you honestly want to live a life without struggle or freedom?
-
-
Sorry... Gnome-where in the bible does it say that gnomes will be saved when the rapture comes.
So, I'm afraid you're out of luck either way.-
Bettie 465: 12
and they rose from gnomewhere and were uplifted unto the heavens ... -
Ha!
-
-
nevermind about my idea.haha
-
Receive the Truth... Live the Truth... Proclaim the Truth.
Strive to be found in Jesus Christ in every area of our lives
and keep looking up.-
I have accepted the truth, the way and the life.
To your version of it I say firmly - No thank you. -
Sathya is the Truth and Jesus is a relevant part of it but not the whole truth, just a tiny drop in the ocean
-
-
Saying a firm no thank you... to my version of beliefs is no big deal, for I am just a man. But please remain open to God and never say no thank to Him.

@waxedman
- What part of: "I am a Christian apostate do you fail to comprehend?"
I have previously told you on more than one occasion that I do NOT experience the Judeo-Christian construct of God. Therefore, I do NOT believe that construct of God (triune) actually exists.
I find your continued attempts to convert me to be annoying and incredibly rude. How dare you continue to insult me with your rubbish after I have made it clear that I want you to compost it!
