The Rapture Playset

 Then there will be two men in the field; one will be taken and one will be left. Two women will be grinding at the mill; one will be taken and one will be left. (Matthew 24:40-41)

A package designed for a family of six figurines, but with two of the slots left empty at random. Then your child can create his own fantasy world where the mother desperatley tries to reconnect with God and join her missing husband and daughter, while trying to explain their mysterious disappearance to her teenage son and toddler.

Additional sets include an abandoned Church with a broken and confused priest, and a pack of militants and thugs who rise to violence in a world where God has abandoned his disfavoured children.

       Big bun for anything designed to fleece the type of fools who booed Bill Nye for saying that the moon does not emit its own light.

       Then why does it glow, silly? Gee, you science types have everything wrong. Like penacillin, for example. If it's made out of bacteria, then how is it healthy?

       Are you saying that beer, bread, cheese are unhealthy?!!
—Galbinus_Caeli, Apr 10 2006
   

       Duh.   

       <nemesis>This is a terrible idea! It introduces youngsters to religious fanatisism before they have a clear concept of the world, and it encourages thinking about the ineffable. The creator of this idea (may his name be crushed into the ground and spat upon) should die for creating it.</nemesis>

       Did you grow up in New Jersey? That's what comes to mind when I thjink of God-forsaken.

       will one of the characters be named RayfordSteele?
—xaviergisz, Apr 11 2006
   

       Absolutely!
—RayfordSteele, Apr 12 2006
   

       With any luck, you'll be one of the missing. Or a bandit leader. It could go either way, really.

       //with a broken and confused priest//
Like the plastic figurine will be PHYSICALLY broken? Or will it be like "Jeffrey Dahmer" broken?

       With the rapture party game, shouldn't the raptured child be required to leave all their toys and clothes behind? Sounds more like a college game.

       Hey! According to the 2004 election slightly more than half of all Americans are good Crosstians.
—Galbinus_Caeli, Apr 13 2006
   

       The IMPORTANT part, that is. I mean how often do you see a Peruvian or a Portegese person featured in People Magazine?
—Galbinus_Caeli, Apr 13 2006
   

       I'm thinking this could be done with Playmobil figures.
