Apocalypse Soon?

Deadly tsunamis and hurricanes, melting ice caps, Brad and Angelina getting hitched, cats growing allergic to
humans…dear friends, the end is nigh. I apologize for breaking the news to you, but unless you’ve cleaned up your act,
in all likelihood you’ll be hanging out down here sipping your Starbucks Frappaccino as fore and brimstone consume your
heathen soul. Sure, there are those who will be whisked away by the Rapture, but statistics show it won’t be you.
Again, sorry. 

Yes, according to this piece on MSNBC, it seems lots of folks out
there see the signs…and know how to interpret them. All these horrible things happening (haven’t seen raining frogs
yet, but it’s been a while since I checked weather.com), it sure seems like
something’s afoot, and the doomsayers are wasting no time telling us what it all means. 

Sites like RaptureReady.com have created a “Rapture Index”, a number that lets us know how close
we are to the Rapture. It now hangs around 160, which is the highest since 9/11.  According to the Web site, “the
higher the number, the faster we’re moving towards the … rapture.”

Oh, rapture!
