I set up a live webcam feed but it refused to write the images the server so here is a boring still. As you can see, no rapture is yet in progress.
Should I not update it may be safe to assume I have been raptured. In that case, Joel Watts will inherit my blog.
1400 AEST: Scouted area with binoculars, no signs of a rapture.
1401 AEST: The world looks amazing.
1428 EST: Taking advantage of these "No repayments and no interest for 12 months" sales.
1441: Heard birds angrily chirping. May have been at a cat or at impending rapture.
1505: Watching Torchwood.Clear skies.
1618: Quite warm, sun still shining, no one flying...
1636: Checked my stats - have had a lot of blog hits from people searching as to whether Australia has been raptured. Sadly, not yet.
1729: Season 1 of Torchwood really lacks structure. You watch sequential episodes and there are entire plot holes.
1739: Saying goodbye to my German Shepherd dog Kaiser. Very sad.
1742: Putting on my Sunday best - new shirt, pants and shoes to impress. Must remember a jumper. Sun is down and it is getting much cooler.
1758: A few minutes to go. Will try and update on the way, or atleast, as long as my Wifi and 3G connections stay live.
1802: I believe I have officially been left behind. I even went outside...but nothing...so then I jumped to get the process started...nothing.
1810: Okay, the 21st is still not over so maybe I shouldn't give up hope
1928: Maybe there is a non-literal interpretation of the rapture...maybe it did happen and true believers remained on Earth to become closer to God?
22 May
0009: No sign of the rapture yet but sleeping with one eye open...just in case it really does come like a thief in the night.
0020: www.FamilyRadio.com appears to have been raptured and continued to time out. Any official word from Camping?
0950: No signs of the rapture in the USA either. Awaiting official announcement.
Bloody awesome. Looks lovely from here. Sure is sad that Jesus has to destroy it. I wonder if we could talk him out of it, you know, like they did in Star Trek when V'ger was going to destroy Earth and the bald chick was turned into a Intergalactic Zombie. Bet that would work.
ReplyDeleteIf you see Jesus wondering around with a Molotov Cocktail or something, see if he's consider cutting us some slack and putting this off for a couple a thousand years so we can get our act together.
Raptural science - raptureology - will never get off the ground....
ReplyDelete".so then I jumped to get the process started...nothing."
ReplyDeletehahahaha, thats awesome.
Hi!
ReplyDeleteI was raptured a few hours ago and am writing this from the middle of the air. Amazingly good wi-fi. A first taste of Heaven. There was just a bit of vertigo as I was pulled upward but I'm over it now and looking forward to an eternity with the good old-time religious music featured on Harold Camping's Family Radio Network.
Just wanted to say how sorry I am that all you folks were left behind, justly condemned. You shouldn't have made light of Judgment Day. It's serious stuff.
Best of luck in the next five months. You'll need it -- Harold teaches us that the End of the World is coming October 21 just as surely as Judgment Day came on May 21.

Still nothing here yet -- it is 8:20 pm here !
ReplyDeleteLooks like we are clear.
The joke about his rapture thing today was not just the particular day, but the whole idea of "rapture", "meeting up in the sky" and people left behind. The whole package is hilarious. Christians I know who made fun of today's rapture thing may think it is only the date thing, but I think inwardly they really realize the whole package is incredibly silly. And today it was in their face. This hurt Christianity again -- as it should.
There are many versions of the endtimes -- I sketched most here. I yours is different, please tell me so I can add another. Thank you.
