Is it just me or is there something seriously messed up with people praying for the world to end. I stumbled across a rather spooky little site via an aggregate news site.

Check out this disturbing post at a site called “rapture ready”.

I’ll quote..

..actually, you know what, I’m looking for something to quote that doesn’t make me feel like taking an ice pick to my head when I read of these nitwits who want to act like spoilt children in the hope that their sun god father will wipe out the world. I suppose it’s a natural progression given that prayer achieves absolutely nothing, their religions are fast losing followers and having an all powerful god who appears completely non-existant must sting a bit. I can only hope they work on keeping their virginity forever and thus take themselves out of the gene pool.

Ok, here’s one:

I don’t want the Rapture to happen now. I want it to have happened YESTERDAY!!! I wanna go home daddddddyyyyyyyy!

and another from “WaitingForJesus”:

I very badly want to go home, too. I feel alienated from this world with its ungodly ways. I know it’s selfish of me (because I guess we SHOULD want to stay a bit longer so we can evangelize some more…), but I wanna go RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!

and still more:

The rapture is the blessed hope which is a desire that the Lord puts in our hearts. I suppose its a lot like looking forward to Christmas as a child, the more you look forward to it and anticipate it, the more you enjoy it when it finally comes.

There’s at least hope for one on the forum:

I always thought that the cough syrup in California was a lot more potent than here in Iowa…you have confirmed my thoughts

I mean it’s a pretty sick kind of mindset I think that goes to bed each night and wakes up each morning hoping that the wrath of god will descend upon anyone who hasn’t accepted a bunch of unfounded stories about some guy called Jesus (that just happen to mirror a bunch of astrology based stories the Egyptian religions had long before). If this was anything other than religion these people would be on suicide watch.

To give you further examples of the insanity of this notion that the world will end thanks to rapture: there are a bunch of twits who think that Obama is the anti-christ.

I mean is it any wonder we had 8 years of George W Bush?

They really should put a child proof lid on the ballot box to stop these dickheads getting to vote.
