Right? From my arguments from him/her, I get the impression **mswas** is an extreme cultural relativist; someone who think reality is defined solely by belief. **mswas** may very well not be joking. ---

I understand Jesus has been held up by an Interspace Bypass. He’ll be with us as soon as He can, but some things just can’t be foreseen. Of course He did return earlier, but nobody paid attention: [http://web.ukonline.co.uk/gamini.perera/Ben.html](http://web.ukonline.co.uk/gamini.perera/Ben.html) ---

Is this one of those quantum mechanics things? Is mswas equally raptured and NOT raptured as long as we have no direct evidence one way or another? Cool. ---

Oh, I think the rapture could certainly have happened. But then God and Jesus looked at those who carry the Christian religion so proudly and thought, “We can wait another 2000 years, right?” ---

Oops, that was supposed to be a reference to [Bosda Di’Chi of Tricor](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=321407)’s thread.

> [@Lok](#): > > Look at it this way. You will have a lot of company and we will all be in a higher circle than **Hamlet**. 😛 That’s how I see it. When people ask me (it doesn’t happen often BTW) if I’m scared of possibly going to Hell, my reply is something to the effect of: No one will be in Heaven. Everyone I know and love will be burning in Hell, right next to you and me. ---

Unless you get internet access after being raptured, his posting on the board today would prove he wasn’t.

> [@Tenar](#): > > Is this one of those quantum mechanics things? Is mswas equally raptured and NOT raptured as long as we have no direct evidence one way or another? > > Cool. I’m back… Did somebody page me? As Christ, I determine whether or not the cat in the box is alive or dead, along with an aggregation of all the will in the universe. Ok to clarify my position: Atheism is a semantic mistake Yes, reality is determined by belief. The Rapture is gonna be when the aliens come down and decimate\* the populace. After the rapture the mindless consumers will be revealed for what they truly are, FLESH EATING ZOMBIES!!! The Meek shall inherit the Earth…as fertilizer. The word Apocalypse means “revelation” Jesus was not the only “Christ”. The Drug War is the Holy Inquisition in a new guise, an attempt to secure the Roman Religious authority as the supreme authority by limiting the spread of knowledge to the hands of a few. New York is the capital of the Roman Empire. Eric Rothschild, George HW Bush, and David Rockefeller are the “Illuminati”. Along with millions of others. Many conspiracy theories are true, but not all of them. Though they are true enough to the paranoid who lives in persecution. The CIA IS watching you. Just because you figure out how Magick works doesn’t stop it from being Magick. Science is not a religion, but that hasn’t stopped billions from treating it as one. It is not possible for a government to be devoid of religion. Immortality is possible. Satan is God, and so am I. Hitler was the anti-christ, it’s over, stop waiting for the storm troopers, that story is getting boring. I want to be the first on my block to have my very own space cruiser. Erek \*Kill one in ten people. ---

**mswas** , are you high? Do you really believe this stuff or are you interested in the shock and awe aspect of it? If you do believe it, why? Where would you get the idea that you are Christ? ---
