<description><![CDATA[Left BehindThe Rapture I have seen the Rapture&mdash;or, at least its annual Christmas Day approximation, when everyone's at home opening presents and it's just us Jews (and Hindus, Muslims, Buddhists, chronic inebriates, and assorted sinners and apostates) out on the streets. If the Rapture really comes, and all the world's righteous Christians are whisked away to heaven, this is probably what it will feel like&mdash;peaceful, empty, and nobody left to defend intelligent design. It's really quite nice. (Free, all morning long.) ELI SANDERS See what else is happening in Film on Tuesday &raquo;More Stranger Suggests for this week &raquo;...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Notice how it's only white people being sucked into the sky. Nice. I hope it's really aliens and they're in for a severe probing.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>@4,</p>

<p>I was being sarcastic and bitchy. That picture is a perfect illustration of the Evangelical's ideal of heaven (and the journey there). Completely bigoted.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>Gee... Christmas morning, a world without Christians.  Just like the rapture.  How come I never thought of it that way before?  Eli, this is the first thing in years to make me hate Christmas less.  Thanks!</p>

<p>So I rode my bike around Belltown and saw  Bauhaus coffee was open and hung out there with all the other unsaved.  Then I went over and rode the length of the SLUT, just to see how treacherous it is for motorcycles (pretty fucking treacherous). </p>

<p>And, no, that does not mean I think the critical massholes should be acting like terrorists over the SLUT.  It means you should avoid that route.</p>]]></description>

<title>Comment by Fifty-Two-Eighty</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>It's a lot closer to "after the holocost" than "after the rapture" here in Denver. It's been snowing steadily all day. The only people dumb enough to go anywhere are smashing their cars up like crazy. Sorta like "I Am Legend," but with snow.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p>@12, I just had an gyros at that one really good place on the Ave in the U -District and walked back home in Wedgewood.  VERY quiet and peaceful.  May the Christians never ever come back.  Life is better without them. </p>]]></description>

<title>Comment by COMTE</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>@3 & @12:</p>

<p>McCormick & Schmick's Harborside in SLU is really the only local restaurant of note open on Christmas Day, albeit with a limited menu.  </p>

<p>I highly suggest making reservations, but if you do decide to go just on a whim, try to get there around 3:00 p.m., after the brunch crowd has mostly cleared out, but before the dinner crowd shows up.  We got a walk-up table for five in the cozy upstairs back dining room after a wait of less than 10 minutes yesterday.</p>]]></description>
