1. My god, that's effing delicious. Especially since the True Believers will think they didn't rate.

:rofl:

2. And if your fundie neighbor....

...sees the clothes, panics because they weren't invited along for the ride, runs out in the street and gets hit by a car?

Remember, these aren't the most rational people you're likely to meet.

5. I believe the "Darwin Rule" would apply in that situation.

3. But then we'll have all these fools running around

proclaiming that it happened and they were right and everyone else was wrong nanananana!

It'll be hilarious at first, of course, but I fear too many will take it seriously and not admit they were had.

[EOTE]

4. And it also means that they weren't chosen to be raptured.

So, you'd kind of have the last laugh.

21. From the comment section:

"If I could stomach it, I'd spend all day Sunday going from church to church, just to pop my head in the door and say,
'Ya'll still here, too, eh?'"

:rofl:

26. That's exactly what I've been saying!

That is definitely the upside! You can go tell all the fundies they must not be true Christians and that they are going to hell.

6. Report all liberals as missing. n/t

[izquierdista]

7. Even more fun

Leave two sets of men's clothes at the closest bus stop to a gay bar. Leave a family set in front of a halal grocery store.

8. hilarious!!

Love it!

[LiberalEsto]

9. Scatter a few bibles around as well

:evilgrin:

[bvar22]

10. I love this.

I wish I had an old car I didn't need and couldn't be traced back to me.
This might even be worth stealing one.
Two complete sets of clothes would be left in the front seat,
a complete child's set in the back seat, pull the car off the side of the road,
maybe close up against a tree,
and leave the engine running.
:evilgrin:

13. Load it up with "peace" and "DU" bumper stickers....

"Co-exist" "save the whales" "pro-choice"

Too funny!

[mod mom]

22. love it.

:rofl:

[pipi_k]

11. OMG that is a total hoot!!!

Maybe even leave them lying in compromising positions...


:7

[Walk away]

12. That is a riot! My town is having it's "All town garage sale" day on Saturday

I have been looking for a tie in like, "Sell everything you own for a dollar! Don't leave a bunch of post Rapture clutter!"

[bullwinkle428]

14. Dammit! I just took a bunch of unwanted clothes to Goodwill

the other day! I could have had a field day with this!

[AsahinaKimi]

15. I wonder how many will do this ..

and I wonder how many will expect it?

[azurnoir]

16. perfect but add a sprinkle of gold glitter around them for effect n/t

[Occulus]

17. As someone else posted elsewhere, use blow-up dolls filled with helium

:D

[liberal N proud]

18. Find a church where they are holed up praying for the end of times

And leave them on the sidewalk and bushes outside.

They will all come out and think the were left behind.

If you want to add a little more thrill to it, get some inflatable dolls and helium and tether them in the air across the street or high in the sky somewhere in view of the fundies.


:rofl:

19. Make sure you leave behind clean underwear...

Wouldn't want it to appear you were scared or surprised at your rapid removal.

[cutlassmama]

20. too funny. hope this has been posted elsewhere on the net

[nc4bo]

23. LOL! nt

[DirkGently]

24. Don't think even "they" would believe it. Same people would arrest Jesus if he "came back."

I think most fundamentalist talk is disingenuous rhetoric. No one that truly believed they were going to be judged based on "doing unto others" would BE a fundamentalist Christian in the first place.

It's part of this growing American notion that the truth doesn't matter -- just how loud you can yell, and how effectively you can shut the opposition up. A form of nihilism, really.

They ought to call themselves something else at this point. "Cheney-ists?"

25. Hmmmm...couple this with an internet "blackout"

Drive the fundies crazy when tens of millions of librul internet voices all go quiet for the weekend.

[bvar22]

27. Can you TWEET while being Raptured?

:rofl:

[soleft]

28. Billy Graham Jr is descending upon my town this weekend

This seems like a reaaaaaal good idea.
