I wish I could meet one of those chaps. "I'll buy your house, right now, for $1,000. You could use the money to print more pamphlets. It's what God wants you to do!"

I've seen them driving around Phoenix with their ad plastered across their rear windows for months. I felt bad they had to wait so I ran most of them off the road and shot them in the back of the head.

I'm a great teammate for the "Race you to Jesus" contests.

nice plan... but.

The true believers have long since liquidated their assets, and have none to "sell". Though some of the ones I heard on the radio would have taken you up on it back when the had assets.

If I was able to edit the titles of threads, I'd totally turn this into a countdown type of thing, changing the title each day.

You've got 10 days until rapture.

Saturday? I thought the song "Friday" was a harbinger of the apocolypse!

The Republican party is going to be pretty hard hit. I predict the Democrats will regain control of the House in the next election.
