I'm perplexed about this "End of the World" thing that is happening Saturday. touched

If the "End of the World" is coming Saturday...will it be at the same time on the east and west coasts? If so, then do those on the west side get 3 more hours than the poor souls in the east? why

I figure I'll post what I did on Facebook...

Quote
I know the world isn't going to end tomorrow night, but for safety sake with all of these "godly" people who seem to think it is, I'm going to stay in this weekend... Why you ask? Well, I don't need some religious nut deciding that I need to be "raptured" with them... And I certainly don't need one being angry on Sunday after they ended up at the bar all night trying to "save me" on their own terms...

So, the plan is; if I decide to do anything tomorrow I want to be in the house with the doors/windows locked up tight by 5pm at the latest (though ideally, 3pm as it'll be 6pm EST and "6pm" is the magical time we're supposed to be "raptured").

I figure, if Sunday is "God's day" then why would the "rapture" occur this Saturday; and at 6pm lol...

Now, not saying "there is no god" but simply quoting the bible directly as saying that "Mark 13:32 - 'No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.' (NIV)".

Thus, I declaire the whole "Saturday @6pm Rapture" utter BS... It's like this guy is using a meetup account to be cool and throw a crappy party... I wonder if he'll drink the punch so he can stop throwing these dates out of his butt (he predicted the end of the world once before as well, and we all know how that turned out).

Ya know, I believe in God, & I believe that one day this all will happen--BUT I agree with James--- for someone to predict the time & hour??? not a good idea--I do however feel sorry for the guy---as he apparently belives all he is saying---

I agree with Carol.

Having said that, a large bit of our world as we know it here ended for us yesterday. I can't talk about it right now, but it's so not good.

Going out to the gardens to work out my feelings...

Thanks so much, Cindy, Tammy and Carol. It helps so much to be able to come here and just say what I did, and know there are friends out there who are looking after me and mine. I'm sorry to be so elusive, but that is all I can say for now.

Love you all! luv

Well the end of the world didn't happen here in Tx as predicted touched
but
Second chances are a blessing from God :o))
Jesus might say " All right everybody --- breathe deep, nothing's changed, I still love you like I did yesterday, and do today, and will forever --- though you might need to help pick up the pieces, for some people who got a little overwrought about all this. Go easy on 'em, everybody had their fun, but --- let's all aim to move on together." I
I wonder what the Guy has to say now about his prediction zoink

You have 2 more hours left! lol
Supposed to 'end' at 6:30 Pacific time.


Are only the "good" people going to 'disappear' at 9:30(my time zone) and the rest stay here? why
So if I'm still here after 9:30 does that mean I'm really screwed?

Looks like we all made it through again. Maybe it did end for this preacher in California and everyone else is really really bad. Like Diane said just reboot run a virus and scammer and spammer scan and keep going treasure your loved ones and hold them close.
