they've got some of the animals "dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, and small caged mammals." and "[Please note: we can now offer rescue services for horses, camels, llamas and donkeys in NH,VT, ID and MT]" covered here: eternal earthbound pets I'm not really clear on what is supposed to happen. Some say a bunch of perfect people (yeah, sure) are going to be taken to Heaven by Jesus. Some people add that that event will be followed by the Apocalypse, where the world will be destroyed. So, I'm confused and don't know which way to jump. I can mostly guarantee that I'm not among the 144,000, so does that mean that I can stay home and take care of my pets? Or are all the rest of us going to be wiped out, including the animals? MDinana said, "I dunno Sue... this is the guy that thought flooding the world was a good idea. I don't think "collateral damage" is in his vocabulary." Maybe He likes overkill, but with the Flood, I still never understood where the drain was, or where the water went. Here's some definitions and possible info, but it still isn't totally clear to me: Doomsday Facts (or fictions) Sue

says here: 2011 AD On May 21st, Judgment Day will begin and the rapture (the taking up into heaven of God’s elect people) will occur at the end of the 23-year great tribulation. On October 21st, the world will be destroyed by fire (7000 years from the flood; 13,023 years from creation). i just attempted to check with the originator's website - not working.

IMHO, if he wanted to start over, here are my choices for improvement:
1. Greed and meanness are not assets, and few get past them, so don't include crap like that, even if it was a joke or some kind of stupid test.
2. Find a better way for women to have children than a monthly period, or people will suspect you have a mean streak.
3. Make the pits in the mangoes and avocados smaller.
4. Cacao (chocolate) should grow in all climates. Tie the recipes to the bushes so the new people can get started with it right away. Apples are fine, but they're not chocolate.

LOL! I LOVE the way you think, Sue!

Please be advised that a proactive,multifaceted, panspecific program was instituted prior to the Great Inundation. I believe NOAA was the lead on this. Known as Animal Rescue Knowledge (ARK), it was a short term mitigation measure (approximately 40 days and 40 nights) designed to insure continuity of significant earthly ecosystems - "Into the ARK, two by two." Later press releases characterized the program as a success....

Well ... its 1830 here and so far, so good.
I'll give it to 2000. I figure he might have been talking central time and forgotten about DST. I think I can afford to be generous.

You know, I forgot today was the 21st until I came to this thread.
It's 4:43 here (1643), and I just started some homemade rice pudding, which usually takes about 2 hrs, all told. So, what's supposed to be the time lag between the Rapture and beginning of the apocalypse? Do you think there will be time for it to cool?
And, if the 144,000 are going to Heaven, and the rest of us are going to 'ell, I thought it would be a nice touch for all of the rest of us to take something to barbecue, and some good sauce.
Sue
