because people are ARROGANT as all hell and want to believe they're special, so they make themselves believe they;re in the end times. I try arguing with them and it just doesn't work.
Oh, my dear brothers and sisters in our lord(eth). I sure am happy that heathens are dying in the middle east. I sure am giddy with joy and faith every time i hear about a car bombing or a satanic gay boy being beaten to death in the street while his murderers garner their justified several thousand dollars. I practically leapeth for joy every time I thinketh of the dirty jews being slaughtered in their beds. And I sure do look forward to the rapture, when those of us who are good and decent will be taken up to the lord. And these filthy heathens, those who are not even human, will rot in hell for all eternity. Yup. I sure am a good person. Forsooth.
I hop the good Lord puts off teh Rapture so I will have time to get a bikini wax, I wouldn't want Him to see me with such a furry bush, but than again maybe in heaven nobody has too worry about shaving there bush! (insert rapturized smiley face)
Sure, but "Duh, I eat poop" is an argument in favour of CREATION. It has nothing to do with Rapture idiocy.
Creation and the Rapture are not the same thing. Saying "Duh, I eat poop" about the Rapture is like saying "But the theory of evolution states that mutation and reproduction lead to eventual speciation" when you're talking about the electrical properties of copper.
It's a trend that is roughly 2000 years old, if not older. Now it's on the Intarwebs, which forced furries on us as a demographic as opposed to "that smelly guy who has a dirty smelly fursuit."
I'm sorry, but X-ians waiting in line, giddy to be "called home" just doesn't have the oomph to break my Top 10.
I think it's creepy not because they're all dying (sic) to be called home (one wonders why they don't take meters into their own hands) but that they are outright giddy about war in the middle easy and about thousands of people dying. They're outright joyous about the rapture, even though the rapture technically means that those left on earth will suffer terribly. Bear in mind that only 2 billion people on the planet are christians and even using the VEY generous 75% mark, that still leaves in excess on four and a half billion people to suffer torment and die here on earth. The fact that they can be so happy about these things and still consider themselves good people worthy of being taken up to heaven with teh saints is beyond stupid. it has definately moved into creepy.
But what makes it really creepy is the horrific misuse of incorrect old english phrases, as if saying cometh somehow makes the word automatically more religious.
I just don't find it creepy. We already knew these kind don't like brown people, so why is the religious expression of that catching everybody off-guard?
PS - two of your typos in your reply were awesome. "...take meters into their own hands..." "...the middle easy..."
Just think about that last one in conjunction with the Katrina fallout and LOL inappropriately, but not like Rapturous loonies.
As I said before, there's a certain elegance to a lot of your typos. There is certainly no elegance to the way a (hypothetical?) Down syndrome NASCAR driver talks.
I don't feel that it's creepy, or any other descriptive word like that. You have to use some kind of diminutive term for it, and "cute" is about as well as I can do.

That is really very, very disturbing.
Also: isn't it strange how every generation thinks that they are living in the end times?
