    What puzzles me is that I read that it is supposed to end at pm, but there was no mention of whether that was BST, GMT or what.
    I'd quite like to know as we're supposed to go to a concert tomorrow at 7.30, and I need to know whether to bother getting ready or not.

    I've got work tomorrow. Don't want to get raptured there that would be rubbish.

    The world won't end tomorrow. All that will happen is that the chosen ones will ascend to heaven. The world will end in October. I have to say that I'll be upset if I can't watch the last episode of Come Dine With Me, as the ascent to heaven is due to start at 6 pm and this does not fit in with Channel 4 scheduling.

    But is it 6pm UK time or 6pm in cloud cuckoo land where this guy's from that it will kick off?

    This is important. I've got tickets to a gig tomorrow night, and an exam on Monday, but if there's rapturing going on all over the place, it might disrupt things.
    And is there really any point in revising if all this is going on?

    There are so many things that haven't been properly explained, and I think we deserve some answers.

    http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_end_times_prediction I think it is 6 pm whatever time zone you are in.

    So it's staggered then?

    Hey, if you can find a private jet with an unlimited supply of fuel, you could travel the world's time zone watching all these raptured souls float past!

    So, all we need to do is get the government to put the clocks forward by 5 minutes at 5.59pm and we miss out on the rapture in our timezone.

    Theology is very difficult. I just think we should all wait and see in our various time zones.

    Even though Christ was a Jew (on His mother's side), I think that any of the more "Mediterranean" among us should be especially concerned. Conversions may have been expected by this juncture. Just a thought.

    Is this just a viral advertising campaign for the Blondie comeback tour?

    Ever since this story first broke I've been wandering around singing old Blondie hits.
    But if there is an enormous earthquake, surely the most appropriate would be 'The Tide is High'?

    Maybe it's a more modern end of the world scenario, and it should be 'atomic'.

    I still don't feel comfortable when I hear white people rap.

    When Debbie Harry started 'rapping' during Rapture, I really did want the world to end.

    Eminem's good though. He's the great white hope for rapping contests.

    At the other end of the scale, there's Sinead O'Connor. And the woman from the Halifax adverts.

    What were we talking about originally?

    'Rapture' is often cited as the first rap hit. For generations, it had been the white woman's protest style of singing at domestic drudgery. Then the record companies stripped them of their tradition, and gave the music to black men.

    And Vanilla Ice.

    It really annoys me that our coloured friends (if I can say that, you can't say anything these days, what with political correctness) always claim to have invented things.

    It's not just RAP. They like to think they that rock and roll was their invention too. Street fashion.

    And dancing.

    Haven't these people ever seen Morris Men in action? Or Folk? Now that's what I call Music.

    I heard someone on Radio 2 say that Folk music is at the heart of everything. It's a young people's station, so they must know what they're talking about.

    I seem to recall that a lot of black rappers think highly of eminem, who appears to be white. Some people accuse him of misogyny, but as long as it's from a sustainable source, I can't see the problem, especially as the Honduran forestry industry depends on it.

    I'm ashamed to admit I like folk music. Even like watching clog dancers. And there's a folk dance called 'rapping', involving double-handled blades...

    Well here I am typing on my fancy cloud phone thing up in heaven - from the sounds of things none of you lot got raptured then?
    I was fairly shocked, as a non-believer I didn't expect that I would be amongst the chosen few. But here we are. Well, here I am, and there you are.
    Heaven is roomy, relaxed and there's lots of table tennis going on. Everyone's nude but heavily pixelated, which is odd.

    I went to sleep in the UK and woke up in Canada - does that count as being enraptured? Rik, care to comment?

    The way to be sure if you have actually awoken in Canada: go to a bar and suggest to someone that he buy a round of drinks. If blood spurts out of his ears, you are in Canada.
