…Unless the Dispies Were Wrong (Again)




Left Behind: A Practical Guide to Surviving the Apocalypse


Redmond, WA — So, you've been left behind. Either the dispensationalists were wrong about the eclipse, or you were too busy binge-watching cat videos during the rapture. Fear not! As the world descends into chaos, here's your step-by-step guide to navigating the great tribulation:

1. Acceptance and Denial

First, take a deep breath. You're still here, and that's both a blessing and a curse. Denial is natural. Maybe you're just in a really long line at the celestial DMV, waiting for your turn to ascend. But let's face it: You're stuck on Earth, and the Wi-Fi is terrible.

2. Locate Your Emergency Bunker

Remember that walk-in closet you've been using as a storage dump for old shoes and broken dreams? It's now your panic room. Clear out the clutter, stock up on essentials, and make it cozy. Add some motivational posters like "Hang in There, Left-Behinder!" and "You Survived Y2K; You Can Survive This."

3. Essentials for the Apocalypse

a. Canned Goods and Apocalypse Cuisine

Your diet will consist of canned beans, Spam, and whatever expired condiments you find in the back of the fridge. Get creative! Mix ketchup with mustard and call it "End-of-Days Sauce." Remember, presentation matters even when civilization doesn't.

b. Holy Water and Demon Repellent

Demons are like mosquitoes—annoying, hard to swat, and occasionally possessive. Keep a spray bottle of holy water handy. Spritz it around your panic room to keep evil spirits at bay. If a demon shows up, negotiate. Offer it a Sudoku puzzle or a Sudoku-themed jigsaw puzzle. Demons love Sudoku.

c. Survival Fashion

Say goodbye to your business suits and hello to apocalypse chic. Leather chaps, spiky shoulder pads, and a gas mask (because who knows what's in the air these days). Remember, you're not just surviving; you're making a statement. Fashion-forward meets end-of-the-world backward.

4. Master Post-Apocalyptic Small Talk

When you encounter horsemen of the apocalypse, avoid controversial topics like climate change and whether pineapple belongs on pizza. Instead, try these conversation starters:

- War: "So, War, do you prefer broadswords or battle axes?"
- Famine: "Famine, any tips for growing kale in radioactive soil?"
- Pestilence: "Pestilence, have you tried essential oils for your horse's cough?"

5. Entertainment Options

Staying sane during the tribulation is crucial. Here are some entertainment ideas:

- Apocalypse Karaoke: Sing your heart out to "Highway to Hell" or "I Will Survive." Bonus points if you hit the high notes during seismic tremors.

- End-Times Bingo: Create bingo cards with apocalyptic events. Mark off squares when you spot locust swarms, rivers turning to blood, or reality TV stars becoming world leaders.

- DIY Prophecies: Write your own prophecies. "And lo, the Wi-Fi password shall be 'Armageddon123.'"

In Conclusion

Being left behind isn't the end of the world—well, technically, it is, but you get my point. Embrace your newfound purpose: surviving, snacking, and making awkward small talk with horsemen. And remember, if all else fails, just blame it on the abacus.

Stay tuned for our next article: "How to Turn Water Into Wine (and Other Party Tricks) During the Apocalypse." Cheers, fellow left-behinder! Unless, of course, the Dispensationalists were wrong… again.

April Atheists Day

Pictured: logo of the National Atheist Party (unaffiliated)  April Fools’ Day is a well-known tradition of pranking and joking around with friends and family. But did you know that it is also a holiday for atheists? That’s right, every year on April 1st, atheists celebrate their disbelief in God and mock the religious beliefs of others. According to some historians, April Fools’ Day originated from the medieval practice of changing the calendar from the Julian to the Gregorian system, which moved the start of the new year from March 25th to January 1st. Those who refused to accept the change or were unaware of it were called “April fools” and ridiculed by others. Some atheists claim that this date has now become a symbolic representation of their rejection of the Christian faith and its calendar.  May atheists now hold that April Fools’ Day has become a day of celebration and liberation from the tyranny and oppression of religion. They argue that religion is based on superstit...

Shane & Shane’s Newest Partnership: Slayer

Bethel Music Out, “Reign in Worship” Begins In a shocking turn of events, the popular Christian worship duo Shane and Shane responded to the public backlash and have announced that they are canceling their planned collaboration with Bethel music, citing "creative differences" and "theological concerns". Instead, they have revealed that they are partnering with the legendary thrash metal band Slayer for a new album and tour. "We feel that Slayer is a better fit for our vision and message," said Shane Barnard, one half of the duo. "They are passionate, authentic, and not afraid to challenge the status quo.

Presbyterians Launch "Sprinkling Correction" Baptism Program Sources

Local Presbyterian Church Launches "Re-Baptism" Program to Correct Immersion Errors ANYTOWN, USA - In a controversial move, the First Presbyterian Church of Anytown has announced a new program to "re-baptize" members of the congregation who were previously baptized by immersion at other churches. "Immersion baptism is simply unbiblical," declared Reverend Percival Fitzwilliam, the senior pastor. "The true symbol of cleansing and renewal is the gentle sprinkling of water from above, not the violent dunking associated with judgment and death." Citing biblical references to the Great Flood, where the wicked were destroyed by being submerged in water, and the Egyptians who drowned in the Red Sea, Fitzwilliam argued that immersion represents a "baptism of condemnation" rather than salvation. "In contrast, the rain that fell on Noah's ark and the Israelites as they crossed the Red Sea was a symbol of God's blessing and purificati...
