May 21 2011 rapture bet. How sure ARE you? Would you bet your car?

[robertmoneymaker999]

Unfortunately, this is a sucker bet no matter how you slice it. If the world remains, they lose their car. If the world ends, you have absolutely nothing to offer them as a reward for winning the bet.

You'd lose your immortal soul and they'd gain their eternal reward with or without this bet.

There's no reason to take a bet you can't win even if you're 100% certain you are right. Not to mention the potential metaphysical repercussions a believer might face for betting on their immortal soul.

[nymbus7]

@robertmoneymaker999 At first it was bragging rights for them to prove they really mean it (I elaborate in further videos on my channel), but not long after this I added the stipulation that I would do work for a taker's church before the date and would receive the car afterwards.

[SuperDeadpuddle]

@nymbus7 To be honest with you, I am actually siding with nymbus on this one. These doomsday heralds are sick people, and they have no connection with my beliefs. Nymbus, You were right! Thank you for being a paragon of reason with these gibbering extremists.

[SuperDeadpuddle]

I am a Christian, and I believe that we are all entitled to our opinions. No one knows whether God is real, or if we will all die tomorrow in a fiery cataclysm. All I can say is that Christianity is a religion built on faith, and that we DON'T know very much at all. Our holy book has been mistranslated twice, and we use it more as a guiding tool than a literal history. When it comes down to the bottom line, we are all in the same boat, Atheists, Christians, Muslim, jewish, even satanists.

[MuscleMaxZ1]

@SuperDeadpuddle Christianity is built upon faith which is believing in things that are not proven by evidence. Being an atheist, I consider that I am definitely not in the same boat as believers. Yes, we might share the planet where we live but you are most definitely sailing downstream in a different craft than I am that's for sure. I'm hoping that this May 21 fiasco will entice more people to jump your boat and come over to mine. At least I can thank Harold Camping for that possibility!

[SuperDeadpuddle]

@MuscleMaxZ1 To believe that we know anything for certain is foolish. We do not know, but we believe. In terms of being in the same boat, we are all in the same one, as we are the same species. All I am saying really is that whether we share the same views or not, whether we choose to agree or not, we all have to coexist, and we all need to have a mutual appreciation for each others beliefs, even if we do not agree with them. We just need to respect each other no matter how different we are

[MuscleMaxZ1]

@SuperDeadpuddle Very well stated and point taken. However, I do NOT appreciate a belief system that encourages and/or applauds folks who give up their life savings, quit their jobs, spend down their kids" college funds, etc. all in the name of some 100% certainty (not) based on a belief that you admit can't be known for certain. I do not appreciate any belief system in which one has to rely on "faith" rather than evidence to back it up. All else I agree with you and thanks for the thought.

[SuperDeadpuddle]

@MuscleMaxZ1 I have never heard of any baptists ever doing any of those things. As with all religions and beliefs, there are those few crazy people that give everyone else the wrong idea. To whatever you were referencing, I agree with you. That is just crazy.



[shumble32]

@SuperDeadpuddle - so you're a Christian who doesn't know whether God is real? I don't know either, yet I'm an atheist.

[SuperDeadpuddle]

@shumble32 It all comes down to what we want to believe personally. I respect you as an atheist, because I believe that to be a plausible thing. Something that you have to understand is that not all Christians are the evangelical, extremist, crazy people you see making doomsday prophicies. We are just people, who are flawed like everyone else. I choose to be a christian, because I was raised that way, but also because I left the religion, then came back after I experienced some things.

[shumble32]

@SuperDeadpuddle - a very fair answer - and I trust you wouldn't approve of discrimination against atheists.

[SuperDeadpuddle]

@shumble32 Discrimination against any group due to differing beliefs is wrong, no matter who radical ideas may seem. I am not referring to Atheists as radicals mind you, I am just giving examples. Beyond our beliefs, we are all just human, and some seek answers from a higher power, and others choose to take a realistic viewpoint. I find it refreshing that people can come up with their own opinions. I find that we all could learn something be having a talk with someone who disagreed with us

great video

Matthew 24:36

"No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father."

...so you guys basically wanna beat God at his own game.

[bevman77]

I'll bet you my crazy dog! She'll need a good master and you could fit the part!

[bevman77]

See you all up in the Rapture :) If I'm not worthy I better go buy some food, guns, and survival equipment!

[Scotty2DopeMB]

Actually, 5/21/2011, is they day when Jesus will make his second coming, and the revealing of the the end. Then the earth is supposed to end, Oct 21, 2011. If you believe such nonsense. Christianity, Catholicism, Muslim, whatever....a cult is a cult. What happens after Saturday the 21st? Sunday the 22nd. Nothing more. If there was no religion, our species would be 500 years evolved. Thanks for nothing, stupid monkeys, who pray to magic people in the sky.

[alongthepatholife]

yeah man, good stuff, lol. But May 21st won't be the day they vanish, or any other day I suppose. Former believer of , good luck with your bet man, I try for a house too, lol!! Killer!!

[socomao3]

Harold Camping and his followers do not speak for all Christians. He is a false prophet. And I am sorry to hear that you have lost your faith in God, and I will pray for you brother. 

[Dreadlord67]

Well technically, a christian CAN prove their god exists in their way. But in a regular human beings mind, you're right. There is no way to prove, or disprove. It really makes me mad when christians tell me it's easy to see and prove God exists through all that has been revealed and such....it 's ust soooooo far fetched.

[superbad1982]

@Dreadlord67 Wait... regular human being.. Christians are somehow elevated above us normal folk?

[Dreadlord67]

@superbad1982 Well, what I meant to say by normal, was someone who can think LOGICALLY, and rationalize.

[mb013962]

this is ridiculus, everyone is soooo ignorant, no one wants to lisen to the TRUTH about judgement day

[superbad1982]

@mb013962 Are you saying you believe in Judgement day being on 5-21-11? If so have you taken him up on his bet yet?

[mb013962]

@superbad1982 there is no reason to bet things that wont be there.

[DarkStarAZ]

"...4 wheel drive and air conditioning!"

ROFL

[amywood71605]

I got blocked from several "May 21st Believers" as well!  Idiots....

[Willgouz]

I'm a personal friend of Chris. I am as religious as they come and we're pretty decent work friends. The fact that no one is willing to take his bet is further proof that this is more of a scare tactic than anything else. These activists are trying to remove the free will out of the choice of redemption by scaring and forcing the hand of the general public. Just a thought for Christians who are against this.

[XforeverlongingX]

and girl your eyes are so cute i'd pinch ur cheeks and hug u

[XforeverlongingX]

I heard jesus christ has a big dick. you all know that if u met him u'd suck him off too

[dezlock]

Awesome idea, but lets take it farther. Let's get the Wall Street bankers to draw up some asset backed securities, Collateralized Debt Obligations, and other derivatives so we can legally make the same bet with ALL the large evangelical churches. After the rapture they don't need that building any more do they?

[Jiminallofhisglory]

They believe so zealously that it will happen, and yet they arent willing to give up their physical possessions. "JESUS CHOSE HAROLD CAMPING. JESUS USED ENGINEERING AND MAN MADE CONCEPTS TO DECIDE THE END OF TIMES. WHAT'S BEST IS THAT HE WARNED US WITH A SUPAR CODE THAT ONLY HAROLD CAMPING CAN CONJURE IN THE BIBLE!" . . . . . . . . . . . . I daresay, the christians will lose the bet.

[j0hnnytamb0rine]

saw this on facebook. Funny stuff. One of the comments was "how you gonna drive when there are no roads?".

Unfortunately I am no longer able to comment on their page but i would love to see someone troll the fuck out of their page when may 21 comes and goes.

[nymbus7]

@j0hnnytamb0rine They just blocked me from posting too. I kept calling out the administrators for preaching without taking the bet. It's a shame they blocked me, one of the readers probably would have taken me up on it.

[New81complex]

If you end up with a car, can I get your scooter?

[sxynightelf]

LOL! Awesome!! I hope you get some fool to do this!!
