1. Sometimes I wonder what the dinner-table conversations
of we-didn't-get-Raptured folks' is like when they're alone the day after, the dog is gone, the house is about to be sold, and all you have to eat is the few cans of Campbell's Soup you forgot to give away in your fervent plans for The Rapture?

Is there silence? Does someone say, "Wow, we really got screwed"?

Or, can we sue that religion or the leader? (not likely)

5. No, they just feel well prepared for October 21. Or December 21, 2012.
Or whenever the next charismatic fraud says the world will end.

It's easy to change an opinion. Beliefs are much harder.

I guess it does give them something to look forward to.

6. The first thing they say is, "Well, at least we're not stupid." Cuz everything
is backward in their world.

8. It was The Rapture. They didn't get picked.
It was only 144,000 and they mostly came from places
that aren't as "ethically challenged" as the modern
first world so we just haven't heard about their
disasppearance yet.
