Not to pick too much on religion this morning, but PZ Myers has been talking about the exceptionally creepy joy the dominionists have been experiencing over troubles in the middle east.

Apparently those who frequent the rapture-ready blogs are exceedingly excited about the death and human misery currently being experienced in the middle east because it means Jebus might be coming.

I too am soooo excited!! I get goose bumps, literally, when I watch what's going on in the M.E.!! And Watcherboy, you were so right when saying it was quite a day yesterday, in the world news, and I add in local news here in the Boston area!! Tunnel ceiling collapsed on a car and killed a woman of faith, and we had the most terrifying storms I have ever seen here!! But, yes, Ohappyday, like in your screen name , it is most indeed a time to be happy and excited, right there with ya!!

Sounds like some teenager excited about the latest teen idol coming to town, except in this case it's Jebus' coming being heralded by human suffering and misery. Yay! Suffering!

Anyone else creeped out?

(I think rapture ready has taken down the discussion because of the contempt it caused, but that doesn't change that people are celebrating death, suffering and war because of a misguided belief it heralds the return of Jebus. Revelations was about Rome people! For the love of Jebus, it's already happened! Revelations is predictive of nothing!)
