GOP expects to lose majority post-rapture; Jesus says “not so fast”
by William Moultrie

Washington, DC – Many Christian conservatives are in a quandary this week, their attention divided between beltway politics, top candidates dropping out of the presidential race, and a potential rapture predicted to occur on Saturday.



"Hey, I thought I was going there too."

If there’s one thing Republicans do agree on, however, it’s that if and when there is a rapture, a lot more Republicans will be drawn to the heavens to meet their reward than Democrats.

A national poll conducted this week revealed that 80% of Republicans believe they will be saved while only 40% of Republicans think any Democrats will be joining them. The same survey indicated that few Republicans were concerned by their belief that their departure would leave most legislative bodies in the country with Democratic majorities.

“Not so fast,” said Jesus, speaking to theDiscust in a rare telephone interview. “I’m not saying that I’m coming back this weekend, or in 2012, or even on August 21, 2017 — and by the way, don’t make plans on that day — but what I am willing to reveal is that a lot of the folks who are pretty smug in thinking they’re doing my work are in for a rude awakening.”

All the "evil liberals" go to heaven and all of the repukes go to hell. Classic.
