<p>will you be checking your email?</p>

<p>So… It says it’s programmed and run for Christians, by Christians… Do they hire one person who’s lived an unrepentant life to stay behind and push the big red button…? If so, how do they know this person is trustworthy to undertake such an important task…? Even if they’ve set up a dead man switch, if something goes wrong, it kind of sounds like there’s not going to be anybody left at tech support if the system doesn’t work properly. How would you get your money back?</p>

<p>It’s hard to imagine anyone would believe this kind of stuff but then, not too far from me, a bunch of people commited mass suicide because they thought they’d join the aliens traveling behind the Hale-Bopp comet.</p>

<p>aibarr, according to their website, they have 5 team members scattered around the US, and if 3 of the 5 fail to login over a 3-day period they will assume the rapture has occurred (although they do add in another 3-day buffer as a fail-safe), and the mass sending of pre-determined messages and documents to email addresses indicated beforehand by subscribers will begin. No need for anyone to be left behind to push the button!</p>

<p>

<sniff> I think it will be Bruce Willis who didn’t have to stay behind it should have been the young dude I don’t like who likes Bruce’s daughter whose real dad is with Aerosmith and who is shacked up with to the cougar lady that’s thinks she’s all that 'cause she has a young boyfriend who can’t act for beans and he’ll have the button and he’ll stay behind but then the button will be knocked out of his hand and then he’ll get it again and …huh… I think it ends with him kinda tripping out. The end</sniff></p>

<p>Holy Catfish!</p>

<p>I still wanna know how I get my money back if it doesn’t work, and if everyone in charge will be gone after the rapture! My godless descendants will surely be entitled to all those monthly forty bucks back, and gosh, they’ll probably need it if they’re gonna have to live in a world with only the unrepentant left!</p>

<p>Wow, $40 a month? I was hoping the $40 was a one time thing. Dang.</p>

<p>Do I go to hell if i dont pay?</p>

<p>

I don’t know but you’ll be left behind on Earth while they all disappear - hmmmm.</p>

<p>Found my answer:</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Ummm, if you were worried that you would go missing after the rapture and your friends and family needed a final note from you… couldn’t you just write it down and seal it up and avoid the corporate money? I’m afraid that I’m getting way too involved in the safety switch considerations…</p>

<p>Can we link this thread with the FCLDS and tie back into other 19th century second-coming groups?</p>

<p>riverrunner, the cost is $40 for a yearly subscription, but they hope with sufficient subscribers to be able to bring that pricetag down.</p>

<p>I gotta tell ya, I sure wish <em>I</em> had some up with this idea!! As one of my sons would say, “FREE MONEY!”</p>

<p>All I can say is, this is very embarrassing. WHY oh WHY is it that the nutjob “Christians” attract all the attention, and not the ones who just quietly live their life and try to do the right thing? </p>

<p>Please don’t answer that. </p>

<p>Sigh… :confused:</p>
