Christian Cat Fud
If you know anything at all about rapture Christians, you probably know that they want all the Jews to return to Israel so the End Times will come, when Jeebus will rapture up the Christians and then slaughter the Jews.
This story is old, but I just now came across it. It’s about a couple of Christian missionaries who decided that the best way to get Russian Jews into the washing machine would be to make up shiny pretty Jew-friendly Bibles in the Russian language:
They need Bibles, but a Bible with a difference – a Bible to touch their hearts! Instead of a cross, we put striking illustrations of the Star of David and Menorah on the cover, and called this Bible, The Holy Scriptures. Inside, we added a special feature — a selection of God’s promises to the Jews, which include the Messianic prophecies.
Since there’s no chance the washing machine could actually turn on, I suppose this is harmless enough. (Not the Christofascist support for right-wing Israeli politics, but the Bible distribution bit.) The nice Jewish people get their Bibles, the crazy Christian people get to feed their fantasies, and I get a nice giggle. Everybody’s happy!

You gotta love the rapture Christians just from an absurdist standpoint.
Can you imagine if U.S. foreign policy were being influenced by the belief in the Mayan end of the world in 2012? (Actually, maybe it is…)

your comment (4) above is abbreviated in the sidebar to ‘You gotta love the rapture….’ which is kinda true and an utterance i like the sound of.
that’s all really. back to my meme – what is a meme and where did the word originate? it’s not in my OED. ‘membrum virile’ and ‘poofter’, however, are … it’s like my i ching – open the OED and see which words find you. given my being discussed with the leader of her majesty’s opposition on your anal sex thread (a short brown thread you have to think)(not gordon brown) (or yet john brown) (hmm rapture – it’s a divine circle) there can be little surprise as to why those words spoke to me. -

It just so happens I watched the “Left Behind” trilogy over the past couple of days. That resonates not only with Christian Cat Fud but with Richard’s posterior, seeing as how he’s such a leftist.

wasn’t it nicer here when i wasn’t posting random crap all the time? maybe i need a twelve step programme – or given my usual level of dedication to a course of action, a two-step would be about it.
