Save Your Friends From Post-Rapture Hellfire For Only $40 Per Year

By alexchasick June 6, 2008

A company called You’ve Been Left Behind is selling a post-Rapture package that sends emails to your sinful friends and family, letting them know where you are and what’s up with the whole pending apocalypse thing. For only $40 per year, You’ve Been Left Behind offers “to get one last message to the lost, at a time, when they might just be willing to hear it for the first and last time.”

For those wondering why such a policy is a sound investment, You’ve Been Left Behind explains:”‘WHY’” is one last chance to bring them to Christ and snatch them from the flames!” The package offers encrypted storage space for personal letters and can send emails to 62 of your closest, hellbound friends and family. According to Wikipedia, there is debate as to how much time elapses between Rapture and everyone going to heaven/hell, but as You’ve Been Left Behind points out: “Imagine being in the presence of the Lord and hearing all of heaven rejoice over the salvation of your loved ones.” Isn’t that worth $40 a year?

    FYI, this entry was featured as one of the questions on the CPR radio program, Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me…

    Does one have to die to take advantage of this offer? Cause I think it’d be pretty hilarious to send them out now … especially if you’re not Christian.

    I’m shocked that Consumerist commenters would accuse religious people of scamming people. I’m going to report these commenters to Jimmie Swaggert, Pat Robertson and Oral Roberts. I’ve have enough of this slander.

    Dude, why didn’t I think of this. This is a great idea. For anyone to suggest it was a scam would be to deny rapturism. So you have thousands of American Evangelicals who can’t discredit you without discrediting their professed beliefs.

    I absolutely love it. I hope the founders are not really Rapture/LB believers, and if that’s true, kudos to them and their profits.
