But we don't know we're supposed to be making fun of the religious nutbags if the media doesn't tell us to.

Because the media makes their business on selling their services. And that means they find the things that will entertain people, or make them up if there are none. And nothing entertains like a bunch of stupid people ranting into a camera.

What, you don't think they're in the business for the sole reason of delivering good, wholesome news do you?

It's times like these that I wish this person was still alive and reporting the news.

Now he's a good example of a wholesome news anchor.

I wish I was alive when that man was reporting.

I remember seeing some facebook post that said essentially that people who go missing on may 21 are people who have been accepted into heaven. Everyone else clearly did something wrong and post-rapture world apparently goes on as it always did.

But I thought post-rapture was supposed to be roughly seven years of constant warfare between EVERYONE followed by...

Actually, it's been a while since I've been to Sunday school, I can't remember anymore.

But the wars don't start until after Rapture. I think. So it's already happened? And nobody disappeared? Pfffffft.

That person is basically summarizing the plot of Left Behind. The series is about what might happen once God takes his followers away and the rest of the world endures its' seven years.

The truth is, nobody knows HOW the rapture will happen--just as we don't know when.

Plenty of people disappeared, usually for explainable reasons.

But all at once?

I want this discussion to go elsewhere, this topic has infiltrated too many threads.

Yeah The Legion and I plan out things very well and make it seem like there is perfectly logical explanations for the disapperances. And now no one will ever know the truth. Muhaha

Heh, kept thinking about this short story I read about space colonists returning to Earth only to find everyone gone and taken by Jesus.

They just said fuck it and grabbed mansions.

Apparently, Bandai is making a push towards selling gunpla kits internationally by testing out a new grade called Entry Grade. They're 1/144 scale but it seems like they have less parts and color variations, essentially a High Grade Kit but without needed color apps. But if these sell well, maybe, the better grades will begin showing up over here. Oh MG Qan[T] and GN Sword IV Full Saber... please make it over here so I don't have to cut off an arm and a leg to get you.

You do not know how much I miss Zoids. I was so rustled when I found out they didn't make them anymore, and unused kits are so expensive nowadays.

Sometimes I wish I could just go back in time and rebuild them all over again. This time I could probably set them up cleaner now that I know how to treat them.
