Maybe the Rapture did happen on May 21, but no one made the cut.

I can see Jesus standing there at the Pearly Gates eagerly awaiting the throngs of moral young Christians to come streaming in … stack of bibles to hand out, a pile of leis as door prizes …

"They should be here any minute … yep, any minute now … probably a bit of a bottleneck somewhere around the stratosphere … … …

… … …

… … … alright, this is ridiculous … where the fuck is everyone?"

His rapture predictions are like a Valve release. Maybe it’ll occur when Half Life 2 Episode 3 comes out.
