The Resurrection
I know it's still early, but has it happened yet?
Are there any contingency plans? Any new dates for the next resurrection if this one fails? |

it has already happened, but no one in the Biden Administration or the rest of the Government will be told until 2025, for reasons of operational security.

I guess they could announce Stephanie Clifford as the guest speaker at the event. That gives them the option to point out that they were misinterpreted:
They never claimed that The Storm was coming. They have been talking about Stormy the whole time! |

Trump Hotel Rates Are Over $1,300 on March 4—the Date in a Wild QAnon Theory (WP, Feb. 25, 2021)
QAnon Already Turning Back on March 4 Theory as Day of Donald Trump Prophecy Arrives (Newsweek, March 4, 2021) I hope they can still cancel their reservations. Maybe they can transfer them to these guys: US Capitol police warn of possible militia plot to breach Congress (BBC News, March 4, 2021) |

The books will be filled with stories (sorry, parables) of His defiance of the three headed Squad, a three headed beast, the evil Pelosi and the vile Antifa, who tried to prevent his sacred return on the 6th day of the new year by engaging in riotous and unruly behaviour.
Can't wait to hear how the former loyal follower betrayed Him, the most loyal of Men, by not defying the false electors who did not confirm him, or how He resisted the temptations of the Storm(y). |

The Trump cult of personality is treading the boundaries of realism.
If any of these nuts' descendants survive to the next century they will be telling the Legend of Donald Trump. |

I'm surprised none of them have claimed he will return on April 4th.

Don't we have to do the thing with the wood, the thorns, the nails, and the spear first?

Heretic! No Tru Trumpist(tm) would ever support the Januaryist heresy! That blasphemous date celebrates the day the Demon Anitfa twisted The Holy Trump's Perfect Speech of Peace, and used it as an excuse to attack the Capitol under a false flag! Renoucne the Januaryist heresy, lest we find ourselves thrown into the outer darkness of another Bidemon presidency! |

Dead gods are plentiful in mythology, the innovation here is "torture steak". I can't decide if that's a steak so good it's torture to see it but not get any, or if it's a steak so bad it hurts you to eat it. I've experienced both but not to the point of fatality. Usually with a very good steak the torture is the bill.

Ah, yeah, sorry about that. The rapture already happened on December 20'th 2012. Turns out the Mayans were counting down to SOMETHING all right.
Unfortunately almost nobody qualified. You lot obviously didn't. Remember the part about "blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven"? (Matt 5:3) Yeah, turns out it actually did mean the retarded. Remember that part about "whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart"? (Matt 5:28) Yeah, turns out that the only way to qualify is to pretty much not have even heard of sex, much less thought of it. So, anyway, long story short: the only ones who actually qualified were a husband and wife in rural Alabama, who had been praying for a child for almost 5 years, but nobody had told them that they have to meet God half way and do something about it themselves too. Allegedly their last words between being whisked to heavens in a flash of light were, "Wait... wait... we could have been putting what into where?" Truly an inspiration to us all. And yeah, Jesus did come down for the event, but is now on his way back to heaven. Well, after they finally sort out that mishap where the airport lost his luggage. |
