According to my friend, the rapture will occur today at 1:50 pm Ohio time. Should I pack a jacket, or would sunscreen be more appropriate in this situation?

No need to rush because there is certain to be another "End of the world" quite soon.

@moffittjc I have never needed any excuse to be crazy and irrational, so you can keep the end of world prophecies.

@Asylum Hey, this ins't my prophecy! I didn't even know the world was supposed to end today. I just want to make sure I'm packed and ready to go if it happens.

I think these things are just an excuse for people to act crazy and irrational. Either that, or throw big, wild parties!

@TiarasOceanView Are we only allowed to bring a carry-on bag with us? Or can we bring our laptops to the rapture? I would like to continue myLotting during and after the rapture.

Oh, ok . . . I knew there was a date, but I didn't realize there was an actual time. Well then this is going to happen before our friend's kiddie birthday party . . . hopefully the rapture will be postponed .

@moffittjc Whatever the time will be, I have no time to sit and wait for it to happen. I have a Saturday to enjoy . . . so I hope it comes late at night. Everyone will be sleeping then . . . wouldn't that be the ideal time for it to happen?

I'm pretty sure an exact time was never indicated. Which is why I have no idea where my friend came up with that information. Maybe it was her personal preference of time? haha

@much2say But it wouldn't be overly dramatic if it happened while everyone was sleeping! It's important that these things happen at the worst possible time so that everybody is extremely inconvenienced and annoyed. That makes for good rapture drama!

@moffittjc Here in Europe very little has been written about The Raptor, we are more concerned by the crazy Dictator of North Korea, this apocalypse can be real.

I would suggest you, personally, need to pack a Nomex suit, Jeff! I am not sure what the heat and flame resistance level is for a Nomex suit, but it will beat bare skin by a mile! Please tell me you don't believe any of this end of the world stuff that is going around! I'm telling you now, the world will end when some idiot pulls the lever to set off all the nuclear weapons still stockpiled around all the countries that say they have de-activated their nuclear arsenals! SMH!

Well it is Sunday, so I will go see who got taken at church. Way I understand it the bad people will be left behind for a thousand years. If you were gonna be taken up in the rapture you would go to heaven where it is perfect and would not need either a jacket or a sunscreen. Obviously I was left behind as I am on myLot.

@moffittjc It all boils down to whether you are a pre millenialist, post millenialist or amillenialist as to what you believe. I leave that part up to God, as He knows and I do not. But premillenialists believe that the rapture occuers before the millineum.
