Let's Not and Say We Did

Dear Friend;

This message has been sent to you by a friend or a relative who has recently disappeared along with millions and millions of people around the world.

The reason they chose to send you this letter is because they cared about you and would like you to know the truth about where they went.

This may come as a shock to you, but the one who sent you this has been taken up to heaven…


I don’t like to quote without attribution, so now I will tell you that this comes from www.raptureletters.com, something I (and perhaps you) heard about this evening on “The Daily Show.”

Here’s more, from the home page:

“After the rapture, there will be a lot of speculation as to why millions of people have just disappeared. Unfortunately, after the rapture, only non believers will be left to come up with answers. You probably have family and friends that you have witnessed to and they just won't listen. After the rapture they probably will, but who will tell them?

“We have written a computer program to do just that. It will send an Electronic Message (e-mail) to whomever you want after the rapture has taken place, and you and I have been taken to heaven.”

So, basically, this e-mail letter will go out to your family and friends once you trip a “dead man switch.” “A letter will be sent out to each of them on the first Friday after the rapture. Then they will receive another letter every friday after that.” [itals mine]

Right on. It would suck if they didn’t know, wouldn’t it?
