Darwin Fish...websight.

I know we shouldn’t shameless promote something, but I just discovered this websight and I know what a bunch of free thinkers we have out there.

My question, in the bumper sticker catagory is and I don’t get this one, " Come the rapture, can I have your car?"

Some one please explain.

The rapture is the second coming of Christ when all the righteous will be beamed up to heaven, leaving the rest of us here on earth.

Some sects of Christianity believe that the return of Jesus will be accompanied at some point by something called the rapture. The faithful (in many versions, only 144,000 of them) will simply vanish and get the express train to heaven.

The joke is “after you’re gone, can I the sinner have your stuff?”

As it happens, one of the more common atheist derisions of this particular brand of fundamentalist is to say that “if you might vanish at any time, it’s immoral for you to drive, since you’ll be leaving an unattended, speeding vehicle.”

I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren’t for you meddling kids!

I saw a bumper sticker today, reminiscent of the “What Would Jesus Do” craze. It read “How would Jesus drive?” I almost lost it I was laughing so hard.

Here’s a similar cartoon that cracked me up:

See, the problem is that for many people going secular would be a tragic loss of kitsch. So, it was necessary to create secular kitsch. I for one am glad somebody has done it. I won’t be needing any, except for one Darwin Fish to replace the Jesus fish I’m one day going to scratch off my sister’s car, but that’s it.

There are a lot of bumper stickers along the lines of “Warning: in case of Rapture, this car will be unmanned.”

Which, I’m thinking is a rude thing to do to a poor car - gelding it, that is. What’d it ever do to God?

One week ago today, I walked outside and caught someone trying to peel the Darwin fish off my car. I asked him why, and he said it was an affront to God, and an insult to Jesus. I laughed, and told him he was sinning, in that he was stealing from me. He got real quiet. Gotta love born-agains.

When is that whole rapture thing anyway?
The righteous are really starting to get on my nerves…


Keep this out of reach of children. In case of accidental overdose, seek professional assistance or contact a poison control center immediately.

Thank you for that image.

Remember in Genesis God made “clothing” for Adam and Eve? Can’t you just see the old guy kinda squatting down gelding car, after car, after car?


Oh, I’m gonna keep using these #%@&* codes 'til I get 'em right.
