How the PR rapture comment works.

Just saying the word Rapture on news will pacify a huge segments of the Tea party and other groups with those beliefs.

They have loaded feelings that are invoked just by saying it will happen on some day. They don't have to believe it, it gets them thinking about it.



It would be like if someone said to you that the check is in the mail, or that you will be getting a bonus next quarter, or that something you want will be happening.

Your mind moves from the work of the now, to that event in thought.


It is to take people out of the Now. and make them ineffectual. Really basic psyops. Been going on since money paid to build centers to teach that stuff a few decades ago.


The way to defeat that delusion is to know until something occurs, you live in the state of Now, and when it occurs, then you will live in that state. And not chasing the carrot.


It is a complex mind version of Charlie Brown, Lucy, and the football.

And probably a whole lot before then, too. It's a great, classic racket passed down through the generations.

The promise of some future event, to get people off of the 'Now' has been used many times in many things.


On a side note, I am due beer and travel money and many experiences.
