World population has increased dramatically since the writing of the fictional bible.:blink: |

That's two jobs I can't figure out how to get:
1. Movie/theatre/restaurant critic 2. Astrology column writer How do you wangle it to get paid for this? I am jealous. Here, let me have a go: Taurus: You are bullish today. An acquaintance from the past will rekindle old feelings. A financial surprise is on the cards. Expect to see "Libra: Go see Bridesmaids tonight, it's very funny" doing the rounds on your astrology feeds soon... |
Re: Apocalypse Plans?
[QUOTE=Octang Frye;9370301]Just wondered if anyone had anything special planned for this Saturday?
We were meant to be going to see U2 (not my choice, but the ticket was free). But apparently it all goes down this Saturday, starting in Japan. 7,000 years ago, it was a flood. This time it will be by fire apparently. We have the billboards here in Denver, plus I've seen those vans around town, and in Chicago. I guess I'm pretty much farked. Are you any of you righteous enough to be raptured? That's my birthday plans out the window then. |

Pascal formulated his suggestion uniquely on the God of Jesus Christ as implied by the greater context of his Pensées, a posthumously published collection of notes made by Pascal in his last years as he worked on a treatise on Christian apologetics. The Wager was set out in note 233 of this work.
To summarize, it's a good bet to believe in God, because: 1. If there isn't, at least you've led a good life by a good moral code. 2. If there is, and you're naughty, you'll be smited/smote and send to H E double hockey sticks. So best believe. It all boils down to, is the God that most people believe in the real deal, even if there is a God. What if god, should s/he exist, send all the non-believers to heaven for deciding to weigh up evidence, what if the test of faith was just a trap to catch fools and so they end up in hell. Plus believing in God and living a good moral code do not seem to have a good record of correlation; some do and some do not, for both believers and none believers. Maybe we should all believe in the tea pot, just in case. |
Re: Apocalypse Plans?
Apparently the Westboro Baptist church is in town this weekend to stir things up so they didn't think it was the Apocalypse yet. :frown::frown::frown:

Re: Apocalypse Plans?
On another note I do think it is sad that the weaker spirited and fragile folk have been taken in and gone to bizarre and very sad lengths to try and protect themselves, I saw on the news some wacked woman that was going to murder her son rather then him go through the Apocalypse and all the desperate folk that put their animals to sleep its extremely sad :(

There's a guy who offered to care for pets after the apocalypse for a one time payment of $250. He's had several hundred customers.

Re: Apocalypse Plans?
There was a bloke on the radio yesterday who has set up a business to look after peoples pets after they have been raptured. $135 per pet and he has 1,000 customers. He ended by saying his customers would be doubly pissed off on Sunday 'No Rapture, No Refund':lol:

If your pet has a location chip, they'll use that, or they'll go to every location you've registered with us, and, if your pets are not at one of those locations, they'll search for your cars as well as stay in contact with the local pet shelters. If they are unable to reach a Volunteer Caretaker in your area for whatever reason, our administrators will communicate with local animal organizations, like the Humane Society, to advocate for your pet's rescue and care.what cars and what shelters it will all be dust! 5.Our administrators will stay in touch with our Volunteer Pet Caretakers regarding each and every pet to be sure everything is being done to rescue and care for them. Total and utter BS these folk will be going to hell when the big event really does happen they are pure evil. |
