Growing up in a Christian household (church 3 times a week until I was 18) this was an idea that seemed absurdly natural and feasible to me. Then I went to college and started learning about other ways to think and that the Bible isn't always a literal book. So I think that yes there will be a day of judgement for everyone. I just don't know what form that will take. I do not think that all of a sudden cars will be abandoned and pilots will disappear from cockpits because we've all been spirited up to Heaven. That's just too fantastic (and by that i mean the word derived from fantasy not like woo hoo that'd be hella cool) for an educated person to believe.
phew. i figured as much really. i dont have all that much of a problem with religion per se, more with a literal interpretation of religious texts (although, the rapture, as commonly understood was actually totally made up by people, so it doesnt even count as a literalist interpretation because the bible doesnt exactlty say that all the people will suddenly go flying into heaven blah blah blah...).
anyhoos, i just watched the Left Behind trilogy on netflix and it was so hilarious to me. the best part is, that according to that version of the rapture, all the raptured people get whisked off to heaven without their clothes! NAKED! IN HEAVEN! LOLOLOL
I dont think you have enough crazies over the pond to make this possible, but if you happen to stumble upon a DVD of "Left Behind" [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_behind] starring Kirk Cameron, you have to watch. The rapture is gonna be amazing! Flying up to the heavens naked! wooo! its gonna be BETTER than Blondie's rapture.
anyhooos, yes, im aware that one's posts appear on the friends page of communities, but remember, as long as you friends lock them, the only people who can see them are you friends - ie, you can see my locked posts on the purg friends page, but they wouldnt show up for anyone not on my friends list. so really, as long as you lock your posts, there is nothing to worry about!
Ok sorry I flipped my shit a lil! So ya likey huh? I will put up some more. Preferable froma different night because I don't liek all the pics to be in the same shirt.
hi, i don't know if my reply to the comment you left to my post in the purg worked. i wanted to say thanks for your opinion and that i didn't do much research before posting about it. i deleted the post cuz i'd much rather be sure of what i'm posting about before i go ahead and click the button. so thank you for your input. and this is a bit random but are you japanese? or half japanese? your username is a japanese verb. aaaand your name is 'miko' which isn't a popular japanese name (i don't think) but my name is 'sumiko' which may hint toward the fact that i'm half. alrighty have a good one. thanks again :)

Religion is a huge gray area to me.
