    Nope. John Nelson Darby created it in the 1800s, after he had a fall and a knocked his nogging real hard.

    Look him up. It’s a hoot.

    @GayDeceiver i dont know...you sound.quite deceptive...and gay.

    (Now to get serious and not make user name jokes)
    A lot of that stuff was added later, but they all accept it as coming from "god"

    {Starts talking in giberish nonsense}

    [Hi this is the person behind her, its not giberish, what shes speaking is a super rare sumerian latin Dutch dialect, and i just happen to speak it, what it means is "god is telling his children to shut the fuck up for a whole 10 years ]

    😛

      @kinsale42 @GayDeceiver Tha Latin 'rapio' is Vulgata's 4th century tranlation of the Greek 'harpazo', meaning 'to snatch, to carry away'. – This is the word used in the Thessalonians quoted above.

      Personally, I would much prefer to be spirited away by the Japanese gods in the Miyazaki's anime.

        Ellen G. White, of the Seventh Day Adventists, got hit in the face with a stone.

        Mary Baker Eddy, of Church of Christ, Scientist, slipped on ice and hit her head.

        I wonder if there are other hits to the head leading to the creation of new religions? 🤔

            People are suckers for stories in which someone overcomes something, and if that person is clever enough to invoke The Devine Whatever, they start flocking to that person.

              @GayDeceiver writing from Germany I had to look up Christian Rapture in the dictionary and my impression: it seems to be something very American.

              It is. And so, many entitled American assholes think they own 'the true religion' and want to dominate the world, saying they are what Jesus wanted et cetera ad infinitum ad nauseam.

                I didn't even knew about it. (But I'm a french catholic.)

                And "Sodom and Gomorrah" being a "proof that homosexuality is a sin" was inserted around the same time by a new Bible translation. In Germany if I remember correctly.

                It is really recent.

                Before that, the sin of Sodom and Gomorra was systematical rape of foreigners by big groups of men of the city. On men, women and children.

                I personally think the mix up between "homosexuality" and "pedophilia" started at the same time, allowing the "mistranslation".

                (and witch hunts started at the Rennaissance, witches were generally tolerated by the church in the middle age)

                  It's weird that the sins of Sodom and Gomorrah got so blatantly rewritten and people just accepted it, because Ezekiel addresses those sins more explicitly:

                  Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.

                        Usual Christian fundamentalist BS. Based on... 3 verses in the book of apocalypse if I remember correctly?

                        Edit: it's called "Revelations" in English. I knew that. Bad Parade! Bad!

                          It’s like 90% of what is presented as ‘traditional’ ‘biblical’ christianity: invented and solidified in the last century or so.

                              We only get one sexual rapture every 99 years. Sorry but I don't make the rules.

                                    It can be both! You, whip your dick out. You, keep it in your pants. And YOU! Put down that waffle. You know we discussed that sort of perversion not being allowed in a rapture. Have a good end of the world, y'all.

                                      Honestly… I thought that the Christian Rapture was a religious concept going back to the very beginning of the religion.

                                      Nope. John Nelson Darby created it in the 1800s, after he had a fall and a knocked his nogging real hard.

                                      Look him up. It’s a hoot.

                                      @GayDeceiver it’s always the end of days for someone. But the book of revelation was written about living through a shitty government.

                                        So basically all the result of traumatic brain injury. Hehe, never really heard all of those 'incidents' pulled together like that...

                                        #magicalThinking spoils everything...

                                          you put your left nut in, you put your left out, you put your left nut in, and you shake it all about.
