Arkansas Woman Killed in Mistaken Rapture

ARKANSAS CITY (EAP) -- A Little Rock woman was killed yesterday after leaping through her moving car's sunroof during an incident best described as a "mistaken rapture" by dozens of eye-witnesses. Thirteen other people were injured after a twenty-car pile-up resulted from people trying to avoid hitting the woman, who was apparently convinced the rapture was occurring when she saw twelve people floating up into the air, and then passed a man on the side of the road who she believed was Jesus. "She started screaming `He's back! He's back!' and climbed out through the sunroof and jumped off the roof of the car," said
Everet Williams, husband of 28-year-old Georgann Williams who was pronounced dead at the scene. "I was slowing down but she wouldn't wait till I stopped," Williams said. She thought the rapture was happening and was convinced that Jesus was gonna lift her up into the sky," he went on to say. "This is the strangest thing I've seen since I've been on the force," said Paul Madison, first officer on the scene Madison questioned the man who looked like Jesus and discovered that he was on his way to a toga costume party, when the tarp covering the bed of his pickup truck came loose and released twelve blow-up sex dolls filled with helium, which then floated up into the sky. Ernie Jenkins, 32, of Fort Smith, who's been told by several of his friends that he looks like
Jesus, pulled over and lifted his arms into the air in frustration and said
"Come back," just as the Williams' car passed him, and Mrs. Williams was sure that it was Jesus lifting people up into heaven as they drove by him. "I think my wife loved Jesus more than she loved me," the widower said when asked why his wife would do such a thing. When asked for comments about the twelve sex dolls, Jenkins replied, "This is all just too weird for me. I never expected anything like this to happen. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/nonod.gif
 
Very Bizzare Story.

I love the bumper stickers.
 
I personally think this does fall into the urban legend category. I had actually heard this story a couple of years ago. But you know what they say, behind every legend is a grain of truth. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 
I'd prefer to think that behind every legend there's some practical joker or someone with an over-developed sense of mischief.... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jester.gif

P.T. Barnum springs to mind.... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
 
As a Christian, I'm glad to hear that story was a hoax. When I read it I found it a hard to believe. Seems it's still PC to impune some groups, oh well, whatever floats one's boat I guess.
 
I'm sorry if posting this story offended anyone. I am a Christian also. I believe God wants us to have a sense of humor, because after all he did allow us to invent mirrors. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/angel.gif

I think it was Mark Twain that once observed that "God must love fools... he made so dam many of 'em...."

Fools? I though it was beetles! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jester.gif

This is why when J. B. S. Haldane, a Scottish geneticist, was asked what his studies of nature revealed about God, he replied, "An inordinate fondness for beetles".
