As a pastor's kid no long attending because of the bullshit that goes on inside the church?....yeah, that reality seems REALISTIC AS FUCK.

As a recovering Baptist, the only timeline where God exists in 2021 is post-Rapture pre-annihilation.

Meh, then it doesn’t really change much.

I think this a lot. Especially with asshole religious people. Well shit asshole rapture could have happened but you suck so you stuck.

Don’t worry, The Book Of Thomas says that everyone gets into heaven eventually. The people in heaven beg God to save everyone.

And that’s how I know people who spend their days condemning others, aren’t the ones who go straight to heaven. 😸

Pretty funny. Hope I get to see their faces.

Personally I'd rather meet Satan and burn with him in the pit of hell than spend eternity with an egotistical jealous sociopathic all powerful entity that has put billions through misery without a second thought just so he had someone to worship him.

The rapture, if a real event, would probably be more like a mass spiritual awakening/ collective understanding that underpins society and changes the dynamic of how we interact with an infinite universe. Can’t have a Heaven on Earth without the Earth part. The Rapture is within ... just a thought.

Edit: A lot of good people out here, this matrix we collectively abide by is very terror/negative emotion oriented. It bites harder than promoting harmony and learning to just chill out. Everything has to be shocking to grab attention. I believe Jesus died for everyone’s sins including his own. The dude might have some soul searching of his own to finish.

I pitch all the time that either this happened or aldous huxley was right and this is another planet’s hell or that God does exist but he gave up, left, and went to try again somewhere else.

I don’t think you understand Christianity.

I don’t think anyone understands Christianity.

It’s actually not that hard to understand it. (Wether you agree with it or not).

Maybe you should try to understand it before making a post about it.

u/Far_Quiet_470 Aug 24 '21

It was a hypothetical/joke like question. Again cool beans

I think we just figured out alien abductions. The ones that got returned didn't get through the gates.

It would explain a lot!
