The End-Times Delusion
This is a comment I made over at Digby but I’m posting it here too, because it’s something I’ve been wondering about. What will happen when the christian fundies realise they’ve been fooled and that everything they’ve been taught is a crock of shit?
I can’t help wondering what will happen after (if there is an after) the Middle East is turned into a lake of glass and millions are dead – and then the fundies’ eagerly-anticipated Rapture fails to happen.
Imagine their chagrin when they’re not transported bodily up to heaven and have to stay down here and confront the mess they’ve made.
No promised eternity of wingnut bliss for them. There’ll be a lot of pissed off, flyover-country people when they realise this and they’ll be wanting answers from their leaders.
And many of them are armed.
Of course all this is predicated on us all still being here when Bushco is finished with the world.
