  • A last (!) word on the rapture

    Well, over the last couple of weeks we've looked at rapture predictions and pranks, homilies and houses. So a few final words... which are to say that something's gonna happen, but we can't know what, and we can't know when. For example, a friend told me recently about a theory that it...

  • Your des-res, rapture-ready house in heaven

    A while back, at the beginning of this micro-series on the rapture, we looked at the Rapture Index . If you misguidedly didn't spend a happy few weeks furtling around in there, you may have missed a section which offers estate-agent-like advice as to the kind of home you might expect to be allocated...

  • The Rapture Song

    Continuing on my theme of the rapture... YouTube has a song from Randy Bonifield at Christ Community Church , Leawood, Kansas. It's a gentle parody of attitudes and understandings about the rapture - including his own. It's worth a listen, and the quality's good - here's an extract: 'I...

  • Left Behind: the prank

    There's a famous collection of Christian novels called the 'Left Behind' series. There are 13 in the series, and the first book opens with the rapture (for example, there are people sitting in aircraft at 30,000 feet when it happens - BANG! and the pilot is gone). The rest of the books continue...

  • The rapture's in the bag

    There's a market for everything, isn't there? And when it comes to the rapture, there are plenty of Christians just desperate to tell you they're ready... 'Shame about you' , the inference seems to be. After all, where's YOUR rapture-ready merchandise? So why have a plain ol'...

  • Girls and gulls

    It seems something of a grovel is in order - long time, no blog. (Did I mention I have a teenage daughter? Then you understand.) To be honest, it was also getting a bit difficult to research enough crazy and funny things that Christians do. The crazy you'd expect a lot of, but I think we tend to...

  • The worshipping cat

    Who says all cats don't go to heaven? I know that when I get there, my cats will be there to greet me, all... smiling sweetly... (whoops - wrong song). Here's proof that cats know God, and cats worship (see YouTube clip) (Goodness knows, I've caught Rufus and Dennis often enough when I've...

  • Is the pope Catholic?

    Last week the pope caused a bit of a stir when he reopened the 'one true church debate' and said that Protestant churches are defective - and 'not proper church' - for not recognising the primacy of the pope. This comes after he reinstated the Latin mass... you just have to wonder how...

  • All dogs go to heaven

    Running with the pet theme, you may be interested to learn that Bless Our Pets is 'a family-owned business working to glorify God through this ministry to pets and their owners'. The website says they 'specialise in pet blessings though Christian pet ID tags'. The site offers a variety...
