Rapture believers are the dumbest people in the world. If you know someone that believes in a hard date and time. Make sure they sign over all their assets before the rapture. Just tell them "Only people that give up all material possessions will be saved."
I was raised by one, which was so bizarre because he was an otherwise intelligent and articulate person. Could have easily been a college professor but instead chose to waste his time on religion.
He claims he never stopped believing, but when the world didn't actually end on October 21, 2011, he picked up drinking and smoking and started wasting money on $20 scratcher tickets. Stopped reading the Bible every day as well, and eventually turned a MAGA republican near the end. Then on September 30, 2021 he was killed by an intoxicated driver, while crossing the street to buy a scratcher and cigarettes, a few days after brain surgery.
This is what religion does to you. It gets you fucking killed.
i think in this case it was the drunk driver actually, unless they were also a priest
No it was religion, because if he never believed, he would have never gone into the deep depression he did when the world didn't end in 2011, and thus would have had no reason to cross the street that night to buy cigarettes and scratchers.
yeah instead he'd be crossing the street to buy bread or eggs. as much as religion sucks - ot was the drunk driver
He was living out of hotels at the time since my mom left him because of his religion, so he would not have had a reason to cross the street if it weren't for religion because he would have still been married.
