There are two flavors of derp here. One is just the garden variety con -- like Oral Roberts that you mentioned, Joseph Smith back in the day, the Falwells and Robertsons, and all those guys who just happen to find a Biblical reason to bed their 14-year old sister wives, etc. Charlatans one and all -- they best hope there is no true Last Judgment.

But there is a whole other strain who so desperately wants to be united with (your-divinity-here) that they see signs of the end times everywhere. They aren't in it for the money. They're the ones who would actually be disappointed come The Great Disappointment (except they will immediately readjust, push the date back, and start planning again). Good old Bill Miller himself was one of them. To be filled with a belief so pure and all-consuming must already be heaven. Not a bad meme at all -- better than most, in fact.

The world probably will end before an ECAC team wins again... :(

True. I like the ECAC, but you generally don't see teams like the RPI team that beat UMD in double overtime in the mid 80s in the national semifinal anymore. They were really good, with Adam Oates and all.

If the world does end May 21st, then I guess UMD is national champions forever! Maybe I'll wear my UMD hockey sweatshirt through the pearly gates.:)

Assume isn't the word I'd use, but yes, I do believe, though I've always figured it's not likely to be many of the concepts people have of pearly gates, golden mansions, clouds, etc., so place is a term I'd use loosely. Just referenced the pearly gates as that's a common conception. Who knows, maybe I'll wear my UMD football national champions sweatshirt instead of the hockey sweatshirt! :)

My parents went in the Rapture and all I got was this lousy T-shirt.

Jesus is performing a miracle there to prove that he is the king of kings. You don't think he couldn't turn NYC style pizza into Chicago style pizza and make it feed everybody?

So is anyone planning a trip out to Hell on Saturday? It's a pretty short drive for me....

Heck, not to far for anyone in SE MI.

Why can't the Rapture be today instead of Satruday? I still have to get my mom a present because it's her birthday. :D
