    The rapture happened, unfortunately the only guy they pulled up because he didn’t follow proper procedures and suit up, so he’s a stiff now. Still legally fulfilled according to celestial law.

    It is so utterly insane that so many humans that I share this planet with are basically in a doomsday cult, and what really gets me is that you’re considered an asshole or an extremist if you ever say something like “I hate the doomsday cult and the people in the doomsday cult are stupid”. You get called intolerant etc etc. You’re damn right I’m intolerant of a bunch of morons who have literally no incentive to care about the long-term well being of our planet and species. Just because the doomsday cultists happen to share the same name for their beliefs as people who are substantially less insane than them does not mean that they get a pass on being insane or that they get to be entitled to the same degree of respect that their less insane counterparts are entitled to.

    I’m tempted to say well, at least they also want the Epstein files to be released. But the people with this type of mentality are just going to sit around waiting for some literal miracle to take place to release the files, because they believe in miracles and that’s not an irrational plan of action as far as they’re concerned.

    The files need to be released already. That’s one thing I can agree with the cultists with

    If only prayer worked. I bet we could get a lot of people to ask God to take all his people ASAP even if we never get to see the Epstein file. The world would be a better place.

      My aunt is basically a crazy evangelical, and yes, she thinks we are living in the end times, and wants to usher in the end times faster so she can get to heaven. Its batshit insane.

          All religion is mental illness, it’s just so common it isn’t politically correct to tell that truth about it.

    Sure, okay, whatever, just release the Epstein Files. I’m not religious, like at all, but if that’s what it takes, I’m fine with it.

    Metaphorically speaking, a rapture in the 1% will be possible if the unredacted list is shared. This will make a rapture in the government also possible… I never thought I’d ever agree with doomsday but here we are…

      See you misunderstood the rapture, it is but children that think the lord is god.

      Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken and the other left. Matthew 24:40

      Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left. Matthew 24:41

      Matthew 24:42

      What lord do you know that has stripped the fields of their laborers? No regard of their ability or need to work, ungraciously taken.

      God is greater than understanding.

    It’s 2025 and the Daily Star is now considered one of the more relevant and trustworthy news sources. And not because they’ve improved themselves.

      In our era, a new way of winning the race to be the British Newspaper with the most Journalistic Integrity appeared: just stand still as a tabloid with little or no Journalistic Integrity whilst everybody else just runs by you in the opposite direction of “better” on their way to Pure Propagand Outlet.
