The Rapture

It has come to my attention that The Rapture is heading our way. Word on the street says May 21, 2011?


I think we can all agree that the best resource available to answer our questions about this phenomenon is Wikipedia. It's pretty straightforward, really...


... and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 
- 1 Thessalonians


If we can make any conclusions about The Rapture, it's that this Saturday, Christians will be abducted. Their worldly possessions will be up for grabs, and all the nonbelievers will finally begin to believe that there actually is a God. The agnostics will praise his name, thanking him for removing all the religiously insane from the Earth.

On another note: it's summer for me now--and the living is straight up easy. My toughest challenge today: eating an entire Qdoba burrito and biking home after. It was also challenging getting up from my post-meal nap to go watch "Sixteen and Pregnant" with some friends.


Grades are being posted--I'm noticing my GPA might be taking a burn this semester. And while everyone else seems to be graduating early, I have another year...and then another five semesters...before I see some returns on my investment. But let's be real--no one wants to work, and in college, one readily finds excuses to be irresponsible. I will miss this world when the time comes...and so will the Christians when Jesus beams them into outer space.
