The Rapture
Monday
27th, March '06,
in the evening, after work.
All
day I was thinking about the chat I had with this lovely lady
I know, who is very religious.
‘Respect’ by the way.
I
was saying how I hoped politicians could turn our World around. She laughed, she said how it had already
been predicted, God will save the faithful from the inevitable armageddon. Anyone feel religious all of
a sudden!
'The
Rapture' all sounds rather jolly, then that's because
it's when God reveals himself to the faithful, by wiping
out all the sinners in one deft and somehow selective
stroke, thereby letting the good guys live on to rebuild a
purer society.
Sounds hopeful (with
a bit of notice).
Trouble
is, they also reckon it SHOULD happen. So they
WANT the Rapture to be brought on! That's not Green
at all (although it would probably work!)
Me, I define 'The Rapture' in more realistic
terms, i.e. Irreversible Climate
Change.
If
Einstein could have had a car bumper sticker - what would
it be?
The
above image is the answer, which I think is the inspired winner
of this online competition. I first heard this classic slogan
at a Joan Baez concert recently. She liked it so much,
a true protest singer that she always has been, she imparted
this gem (of an internet search phrase) to us. I can't forget
it. Funny, yet TRAGIC.
