I am quite sure that I would never have come up with the concept of a 'god' being a thing had I not been indoctrinated, and had I not read history of cultures who seem to like, or need, to believe in a thing to explain the things they cannot explain.
If the believers went away - while I'd like to say I'd create a religion and profit from it (this would be smart since it's an accepted event that goes on now here in America) - I would probably just live and forget all about them being relevant. You know, sort of like most of us look upon the witches of Salem from hundreds of years ago, or even alchemists, warlocks, dragons ... you name it. Just not relevant, and just not worth expending much thought or energy over. |

Make fun of all the people who still post religious topics in GD.
Because I'm pretty sure the same ones will all still be here. Still making posts under the premise that they can troll the non-religious members (which is exactly what is being done in this post) but continue to be offended when others treat them in a similar fashion. |

All the boring good girls would be gone...so every chick walking the earth would be naughty They're all good girls…until they're not. QFT. Some of the dirtiest girls I've known were straight laced Christians. While they would quote scripture in public, behind closed doors they would make Penthouse Letters seem like a bible school lesson. |

Are Catholics involved? Because if so I'd fucking chain myself to the floor and not go.
I'd raise hell, start my own country, and do God's work on Earth. Fuck every piece of fine ass looking pussy I run across and repopulate! |

As a guy who raised Catholic, I had never heard of the concept of the rapture until I was 23. I had just moved in to my first apartment, turned on the TV one Saturday afternoon and watched an entire 30 minute infomercial/rapture/proselytizing tv show thing. I was confused as to what I was seeing. It was the most bizarre, hilarious, horrifying thing I'd ever seen. |

Probably get up and go to work the next morning like I always do.

I was confused as to what I was seeing. It was the most bizarre, hilarious, horrifying thing I'd ever seen. Based entirely on a misinterpretation of scripture. I don't care how it came to be. It was immensely entertaining. I spent the first ten minutes trying figure out what the fuck they were talking about. Then they showed a recreation of what it would look like when all the good folks got raptured, and I just completely lost it. I was laughing my ass off for a good five minutes watching bicycles fall over, and people running around screaming to an empty street, "Where's Johnny?!?!" It finally dawned on me that I wasn't watching a sci-fi flick or a satire, these people on the TV were dead serious about this - that freaked me out. No, not the thought of being "Left Behind," rather the idea that there were living, breathing, seemingly rational people walking around who believe in that sort of, uh, thing. |

What would you do if all of a sudden the Believers in God disappeared? For clarification the God of the bible (AKA the God the Christian believers follow). Hopefully we can keep this on topic For those who do not like such subjects: Remember this is GENERAL discussion and it is allowed. For those who feel the need to troll this thread: Try to act Mature and go somewhere else. View Quote IF you're talking rapture, I'd get ready to pop the Pmags, because shit will be ready to get real. IF you're talking everybody who believes in God, uhm... Disappear? |

Go collect a bunch of slightly damaged trucks. Think to myself that the Lutherans really dropped the fucking ball.

The honest and good ones?
I'm sure we'd get by without Steve and Erika. |

See what kind of loot they left behind. After I finished letting the last of the monkeys fly out of my butt.

If it's a pre-tribulation Rapture, I believe the Antichrist will play it into some type of phony alien scenario. Notice how all TV shows featuring aliens portray a humanity united in one world government fighting a war against the aliens. When Jesus comes back not as a lamb but as King of Kings in Revelation 19, its entirely possible that the armies of the Antichrist will be under the great delusion that they are fighting an alien invasion. So-called alien activity today has nearly everything in common with demonic and the occult, because they are one in the same. I always say Pray for pre-trib, but prep for post trib rapture.

Start looking around for the unicorn I get to ride around in the land of the free while hunting orcs and goblins.
I mean since we're talking fantasy, why cant I have a unicorn? |

Wouldn't notice since none of you actually believe that shit.
It's all just one big practical joke. Real funny, guys. Almost got me. |

Sacrifice 10 virgins to Dagon and dance naked in their blood?

Be thankful there would be no more threads like this in GD.
Now one for you. How many more thousands of years will you guys be talking about the rapture before you realize it ain't happening? |

Arguably most people in my area would disappear. Finders keepers and all that.
