Front Seat Tickets to The Rapture

Those of you who know me are aware of how I feel about religion.  I really hate people who blame their parents for everything but I can definitely lay this at my mom’s feet.  She forced me to switch churches and then become Jewish in a manner that others would only change their clothes.  She forced each religion down my throat and I hated it.  And then when she died they all told me she was in hell.  Well, I have a few choice words about that, but I’ll leave those for my personal thoughts.

So, I’m pretty bitter when it comes to Organized Religion.  But, thanks to mom I have a very well rounded understanding of different religions.  I do have my own personal beliefs that I will keep to myself, other than the fact that I hate Organized Religion (not religion itself) and I don’t believe in the rapture.

Okay, really?  The rapture isn’t even in the bible!  So, if you believe in the bible where did you get this rapture thing?

Supposedly the rapture is happening tomorrow.  It’s not the first time it’s been scheduled.  Everyone keeps changing the date and always have a new reason; we got the calendar wrong, we misunderstood a sign, Pluto doesn’t count or my dog ate my homework.

Here’s what I hate about this, every time it happens a bunch of people go crazy.  They loot, they kill themselves, they kill others, and they max out their credit cards.  I wouldn’t mind this whole rapture business, after all they have a right to believe what they want, but its affecting others.  To read more about some of the crazy stuff people do go here.

This is going to sound crazy but I have actually thought about an attack strategy in the case of a zombie apocalypse.  Like where I’d go, what I’d take and how I’d make it with Kaylee (notice how no one in these survival things ever has a kid).  Apparently I’m not the only one.  Go here to find out about how the CDC wants you to be prepared for everything.  Even Zombie’s.

Well, I guess I’ve said my peace.  If the rapture does happen tomorrow then I wish all of my uber-religious friends well because I’m a horrible sinner and will be staying here.  Maybe it’ll be quieter.
