Mimi V (naomi_v) | 98 comments i really admire the work that FFRF does in the US. i do NOT understand how anybody would make the decision to donate money to an organization that will supposedly no longer exist once the rapture it predicted happens. the lack of logic astounds me.

Jimmy I guess they were donating to the advertising campaign? Then the extra money should be returned. Religious scam artists are at work everywhere, and they are getting better at pulling in the dough.

George King (kinggeorge) | 141 comments Someone should write a novel satirizing the Rapture and the "Left Behind" series of novels.


message 5: by Jimmy (new)

Jimmy The Left Behind series has sold a good 700 million in sales.

Mimi V (naomi_v) | 98 comments is the Left Behind series about the people who aren't taken to heaven in the rapture? i'm not sure i see the appeal for christians. are they holy horror stories?
