Weirdos.

The thing is, belief in the Rapture/Millenialism is quite the minority view in Christianity. Catholic, Orthodox, and mainstream Protestant denominations (Lutherans, Presbyterians, etc.) don't believe in this crap.

I assume that insurance companies require an actual body for a payout, not just a pile of clothing, dental fillings, breast implants and wigs?

Wat? Does this mean I can't take my inflatable corpus spongiosum implants with me?

Well, if you're going to heaven, then you aren't going use them.

If you're going to hell, then your deprivation of them will be the least of your worries.

More likely than not, you'll just be dead and thus be of no concern except to archeologist of the future: "Here's another one with these balloons, but unlike the other ones there are no traces of silicon gel...I wonder why?"

I'll settle for canceling my health insurance.

Not ANOTHER of these rapture themed threads.

More like the Ultimate Fisting.

Somehow I suspect that that's just someone's attempt to start a stupid email/intertubes hoax/spam ha ha ha type of thing.

Either that, or people are really stupid. I know that the latter is true, but I can't imagine THAT stupid.

Here's the thing... if the supposed rapture were imminent, who cares if you save a few bucks a month on your life insurance?

So, frankly, it reeks of hoax to me.

I've got no reason not to trust the source, she's practically family, but I'll check to see if she's joking and get back to you.

It's probably real, tho there was a scam somewhat on these lines not too long ago. Can't remember the particulars atm, maybe later. Meanwhile, a quick search turned something else up. (Sorry if this has been done to.. um.. death already here).

Did they consider they might die before the rapture?

People like this really don't consider anything.

Every church i've ever been to has believed and preached an impending rapture (one preacher went so far as to say Jesus returns before his ailing grandpa dies, this was ~10 years ago, I don't know if he's grandpa is alive). This was a Church of God church. The most recent church I went to was unaffiliated Pentecostal church, that had similar messages. I would say this is a pretty common teaching in churches around North Carolina, at least, and most of the south.
