This Space for Rent

A Cheery thought for a Friday the 13th.

A lot of people have commented on the evangelical takeover of the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, but as far as I can tell not one of them is appropriately paranoid about it, and has asked one timfoil question: just who staffs NORAD, and what happens if they decide it's time for Jesus to come back right now?

If I peel back the tinfoil hat, I could no doubt make some comment about it being a really dumb idea to let the Evil Party capture the military (the latest round of base closings, which appear to be motivated by nothing more than getting military bases out of blue states, certainly indicates that the Evil Party is deliberately attempting to do this), but it's nowhere near as provocative as announcing "The rapturists have the launch codes" on a bright sunny Friday afternoon.

I was sort of hoping the rapture would come "like a thief in the night..." you know, sort of silently without a lot of commotion...but no matter the method, I'll be glad to have the nutwings gone. I get dibs on their tractors, riding lawn mowers and Lazy-Boy recliners. Praise Jesus! Thank you, Lord for finally giving us some peace!
