Poor Fundies are "dying" for Bundy to bring the Rapture

[Quixote1818]

It's amazing how many people live day to day waiting with bated breath for the rapture. For them hearing an emergency broadcast test is like sniffing cocaine! They simply can't wait for all the death and destruction so they can meet their all loving God. Bundy is getting a lot of their hopes up!

1. Don't get me started on the stupid.

[Quixote1818]

3. That was brilliant! Practically a religious experience watching it!

Be careful as you might bring on the rapture if you keep posting that!

[Rex]

4. Well I don't blame agnostics for their views.

They are silly and I will mock them, I can mock my own stupid idea of the universe so I assume a higher lifeform can too. I do like the use of the coat of capitalism as a way of giving Gawd into you soul. Don't make me show the one where they are dancing on the money!

It is priceless, I shall leave well enough alone.

6. I am guessing you have seen the one where Peter Popoff gets exposed

12. "Just walk around a little to make the Devil

mad."

What a charlatan. My first impulse was to use another noun, but for decorum's sake this evening, let's just stick with 'charlatan.'

2. I swear that if I win the lottery

I'm going to buy a bunch of inflatable sex dolls, fill them with helium and release them next to a revival meeting.

And play Sympathy For The Devil over some loudspeakers.

[Quixote1818]

5. LMAO!

That would be a really good practical joke on a Christian who is obsessed with the rapture for sure. I would pay to see that or some other creative pranks on these folks. Just seeing how this guy reacted to the emergency broadcasting test tells me they would be ripe to buy right into something played out just right. And how horrible for them to think they got left!

17. We're told the Rapture was delayed

because Jesus was disappointed with the lack of Christians.

Other reasons are given as well, but that one stood out for me. If he existed at all, would Jesus have even known what a "Christian" was?

Noticing also how the Rapture itself is an escape hatch from one's responsibilities to others. If you're ready to be Raptured, and you think the Rapture is relatively imminent, you might eschew Science, because whatever those liberal Scientists are up to won't mean a thing come the Rapture.

Public schools? Won't matter and therefore aren't worth investing time and energy in. Better to home-school kids so when the Rapture goes down, the family's all together.

Conservative Republicans speak in defiance of the Supreme Court, stating that it is God's law, and not the U.S. courts, that will govern. The Rapture is a must for these folks because otherwise they would have to completely re-examine their positions. On nearly everything.

[longship]

24. I heard about that one a few years ago.

Raptured indeed!

Or... Maybe ruptured.

Hope you are well, my friend.

7. I listened to both clips but found my eye

couldn't quite get away from the surf boards.

Obama is the Anti-Christ and the current Pope is the Beast. Martial law by August or so.

This seems to be a case where someone who has a reasonably effective delivery nevertheless is batshit crazy.

[Quixote1818]

8. I actually feel sorry for him

He could go another 65 years waiting for the rapture and continue to be let down each time he gets his hopes up. He may have some real difficulties in his life that he is trying to get away from. He had a few Freudian slips about those kinds of things.

[saltpoint]

11. Agree, Quixote. There was in that

second clip something about people who are waiting for the Rapture having nothing else to look forward to. That's a clumsy paraphrase, but the way he profiled that sort of personality was interesting.

[Quixote1818]

15. Yes, it was like he thought he was counseling his listeners but he was really talking to himself

and didn't realize it. That's what prayer is half the time. I think it gives people the feeling they are doing something and doing good which helps them feel a little better about themselves so even though prayers rarely come through the act helps them feel better.

[saltpoint]

19. Yes. I don't fault them for

having to bear the confusion of the times, but I'm kind of appalled at the mega-church core of modern fundamentalism.

[longship]

10. The bowl in front on the first video?

Full of Cocoa Puffs, as in cuckoo for.

[Quixote1818]

16. You guys are "killing" me!

That was a DUzy!

[Kelvin Mace]

14. I am totally in favor of the rapture

Anything to de-assholefy the planet.

[3catwoman3]

18. I am never quite sure whether to...

...feel scornful of or sorry for people who are so incapable of critical thought, or unwilling to engage in it.

[Quixote1818]

21. I went through a "religious" experience in my early 20's where I thought God had hand picked me

to save the world. Think it was drugs floating around the air at a Tom Petty concert that brought it on. I literally was ready to quit my job and go find Gordon Lightfoot because I thought he was a messenger from God and was communicating to me through one of his songs. That night I didn't sleep I was so excited but perhaps the drugs were wearing off and some doubts were starting to kick in and I was feeling less bold by morning. I decided to call the Unity Church hotline to fill them in on all this amazing stuff that was about to go down rather than drive to Canada to find Mr. Lightfoot. Anyway, the guy on the line was clearly pissed off from my idiot rantings and slammed the phone down hanging up on me. At that instance I popped out of it and realized I had been fucking insane! I called my Mom and told her everything. She was so freaked out she was ready to drive down and make sure I was okay.

Anyway, I wonder if he went into something similar and just never came out of it? So I do have sympathy because he really has no control over what is going on. His ability to reason is 100% gone.

20. Dumb shit can't even put a complete thought together. Serius XM satelite radio has been part of the

EAS emergency broadcast system since it's inception in 2011 and EAS just started testing the system in Sept 2015

The test revealed several problems regarding reception which is why they are testing it. It's a new system and there are no FEMA death camps or black helicopters involved

How people like this guy can leave there homes in the morning, without going barking at the moon nuts everytime they hear a siren, is beyond me

[L. Coyote]

22. How did you find two videos we can't possibly watch to the second sentence?

What the guy says is bad enough, but the production is horrific too.

[longship]

23. Meh! It is what it is.

Have you ever listened to Michelle Bachmann? Maybe not. But then you'd know.

[TlalocW]

25. He sounds excited in the first video

And kind of dejected in the second - I guess because the rapture hadn't happened yet - but it sounds like his pep talk is as much for him as his "followers."

Too bad you can't comment on his videos. Normally I ask these loonies if they're so sure of the of the world, then they should have no problems transferring all their money and property to me.

So far, no takers. But I have... faith.

28. What...!?!

I don't even...

Religion... The fairy tale that continues prop up the weak and vain.
